King of Clubs

Crowning the suit connected with knowledge and communication, the King of Clubs has everything needed for an authoritative position in any field of activity. People with this Birth Card have direct access to knowledge accumulated over many past incarnations. They rarely turn to someone else's teaching or philosophy. They draw wisdom themselves from an inexhaustible source and live by their own truth. Kings of Clubs can be met in any profession; usually they hold responsible posts. They always enjoy respect. Among them are outstanding performers, statesmen and musicians. One of their greatest advantages lies in perceptiveness and quick-wittedness, as well as in the charm thanks to which they become popular. They work better with a partner than alone. The life problems of most Kings of Clubs revolve around abuse of drugs or alcohol, or some other forms of escapism. In their striving to understand and resolve inner conflicts the King of Clubs may pass through many trials, at times seemingly unworthy of his enormous potential. But at about the age of thirty the King of Clubs seems to awaken and realise his strength and the responsibility connected with it. This is the most spiritually receptive card in the deck. An intuitive approach to life is an innate property of the King of Clubs. The main problems of a person with this Birth Card lie in the area of marriage and are connected with the habit of getting stuck in a comfortable routine way of life, forgetting their higher purpose. The King of Clubs can give the world much, and if he does not realise his potential, he will have to regret it.

Relationships of the King of Clubs with other people

In principle the King of Clubs has good marriage karma. He likes emotionally close relationships. But some sides of married life present a serious problem for him. One of the main difficulties is that the King of Clubs fears losing personal freedom by marrying. Freedom is important to him; he values it above all else and at times even above a happy love relationship. However, usually this still does not prevent him from marrying sooner or later. King of Clubs women often face problems concerning marriage, sex or children. Their Pluto Card — the Queen of Hearts — may show itself in the most varied ways, but one way or another it will bring difficulties into the life of a woman born under the influence of the King of Clubs. Such a woman will draw much benefit if she carefully studies the meaning of the Queen of Hearts, which symbolises for her the task of spiritual transformation. Men whose Birth Card is the King of Clubs usually prove attractive to women who embody the negative traits of the Queen of Hearts — escapism, laziness and self-indulgence. Regardless of sex, Kings of Clubs must learn to distinguish inner truth from romantic fantasies. For this they are strong, determined and perceptive enough. The partner of a King of Clubs must learn to cope with his strength without taking a defensive position, which may be perceived as provocation. For women born under the influence of this card it is sometimes extremely hard to find a suitable partner with whom they can stop pretending and be themselves.

The highest truth

The King of Clubs is unusually perceptive and receptive to things other people rarely pay attention to. He feels out of place until all the i's are dotted. He can be too meticulous about details and believes that everything must have its reasons and grounds. The King of Clubs always seeks these grounds and does not rest until he finds them and recognises them as true. And having found the truth, he unites with it in soul and heart. In his search for an ever higher truth the King of Clubs undergoes many serious transformations. In the end he burns in the fire he himself kindled. So if a King of Clubs demands that you face the truth he has seen in you, remember: truth is a double-edged blade that wounds not only you but your partner too. Most Kings of Clubs apparently understand this, and if they criticise you or put forward some proposals, they act with great sympathy and understanding.

But it is precisely thanks to this Aquarian quality that Kings of Clubs change the world for the better, bringing in new ideas.

After all, the realm of the Club suit is thoughts, ideas, words, convictions and communication. The highest realisation of the King of Clubs' potential lies in the possibility of proclaiming and defending his highest truth before the world and helping other people grasp it.
