King of Diamonds

The King of Diamonds is the master of values, finance and business. He can prosper in any business venture thanks to innate knowledge of this field of activity. Kings of Diamonds always achieve great success heading their own enterprise rather than working for someone else. They can be very calculating and mercenary where money or business is concerned, but this is not an obligatory trait of theirs. The King of Diamonds is the only "one-eyed" King in the deck, and this means he can be blind to certain aspects of life and situations. Moreover, he can be extremely stubborn, regarding things from one chosen point of view. For this reason the King of Diamonds often makes enemies. Perhaps the raised battle-axe depicted on this card symbolises precisely a passion for rivalry. Still, all Kings of Diamonds understand what the true values are, and if they follow this knowledge without giving in to fears and doubts, they become highly respected people in the business world. They must beware of abusing their power at the expense of others. Possessing such enormous strength, the King of Diamonds may avoid his own feelings, which creates many problems. Often emotional problems arise for him back in childhood, and they must be solved before the highest level of this Birth Card shows itself. Until then the King of Diamonds is cold and ruthless. Kings of Diamonds are very inventive and thanks to this are able to earn a lot of money. They are strong, and at a high level of development are able to bring people much benefit.

Relationships of the King of Diamonds with other people

The love karma of the King of Diamonds can be called neither especially favourable nor entirely negative. But, being Kings, they are strong and do not like compromises, which can cause problems in personal relationships. For women with this Birth Card it is especially important to find a counterbalance to their powerful masculine principle in the context of relationships where the generally accepted norm is the woman-homemaker. They strive to dominate their partner or at least be on an equal footing with him, and some men do not like this. Some King of Diamonds women give up after a series of unsuccessful attempts. Some men do too. Kings of Diamonds of both sexes sometimes regard marriage exclusively from a financial point of view. But to find a suitable spouse they must clearly distinguish business life from love life. Moreover, the King of Diamonds must learn to express his emotions. Then it will be easier for him to find a common language with a partner. Sincere communication will smooth the rough edges and increase the degree of closeness in the relationship. Kings of Diamonds like clever and educated people; they often find a spouse among business partners.

Compatibility of the King of Diamonds with other birth cards

King of Diamonds women feel a strong attraction to Heart men. This is a powerful combination, though not always an easy one. Club women are extremely strongly attracted to King of Diamonds men and can make a successful marriage with them. King of Diamonds men face great problems in dealing with women of the Spade suit and should avoid marrying them.

How we make enemies

The King of Diamonds occupies an exceptional place among all the cards of the deck for the number of negative connections. The King of Diamonds is called the most materialistic and ruthless of all the cards. Considering the low level of the King of Diamonds, people claim that representatives of this Birth Card will stop at nothing to reach their intended goal. But how have they earned such a sad reputation? Have you noticed that the King of Diamonds is the only one of all the Kings in the deck depicted in profile — one-eyed? So are the Jacks of Hearts and Spades. One-eyed cards tend to look at the world very one-sidedly. This trait shows itself in them in different ways. The Jack of Spades, considered at the low level the card of the thief, constantly deceives, fully convinced that he will get away with it. The Jack of Hearts is the card of sacrifice, and in his case the blindness shows itself in the sphere of love. Jacks of Hearts do not notice the shortcomings of their partners, who often use them. And in the King of Diamonds a one-sided view of the world is inherent in professional matters. He has to make a great deal of effort to see things in perspective, not limiting himself only to his own ideas, convictions and values. Many Kings of Diamonds have an aspect of Mercury with the Moon in their horoscopes. This is an indicator of serious problems, meaning that the person tends to pass thought through emotions. It is precisely this feature that is called subjective thinking. Subjective thinking makes a person identify their personality with their own ideas and convictions, which is in fact wrong. If we add to this subjectivity a fair dose of pride and the habit of always getting one's way (inherent in all Kings), we will have before us the portrait of a true tyrant. Many will agree that the definition "tyrant" fits the Kings of Diamonds they know quite well. All Jacks, Queens and Kings are accustomed to holding power in one way or another over the people around them. In each case this power is expressed differently, but the temptation is always the same: abuse of strength. Often it is more convenient for a person to put all their strength into solving a problem than to face their fears and emotions honestly. If this repeats often, the person gradually loses touch with their own emotions and ceases to distinguish reality from fantasy. Thus the subjective thinking of the King of Diamonds may make him suppose that he is always right, while in reality his conclusions are based on unfulfilled emotional needs that he does not admit to himself. Moreover, the King of Diamonds is less afraid of entering into conflicts with other people than other cards in the deck. Quarrelling with someone is no problem for him; perhaps this is why he so often gets into tense situations. But in essence Kings of Diamonds are peaceable and endowed with a strong sense of justice in personal relationships, which helps them live easily and carefree most of the time. But as soon as fear or other emotions arise in them, they begin to apply all their strength to make other people change the situation. Often this is exactly how enmity arises.
