Five of Clubs

The Five of Clubs means changeability and a restless mind. People with this Birth Card are distinguished by great curiosity, which constantly prompts them to change. The Five of Hearts as their Karma Card says that many changes also happen in their love life, so Fives of Clubs are usually not entirely suited to married life. As a rule, these people are recklessly bold and love to engage in various explorations and searches. That is precisely why they flee like the plague from any affairs and people requiring the observance of any obligations. In some cases this turns them into wanderers and extremely inconstant people. The Five of Clubs is the most restless card in the deck. Although they adapt very easily to new conditions, easily move to new homes or change their way of life, this usually gives rise to much responsibility and many disputed situations, which in their Life Spread is symbolised by the Saturn Card — the Five of Spades. The Ace of Spades as the Venus Card points to secret love affairs and indecision in choosing a partner. This same Ace endows many Fives of Clubs with heightened sexuality and a beautiful voice. The Seven of Diamonds as the Jupiter Card is the "millionaire's sign", and many Fives of Clubs really are rich, although they spend or lose money as quickly as they acquire it. The Five of Clubs should avoid speculation and gambling. Though they are luckier than other cards, their tendency to spend does not let them manage money properly. And this is clearly felt when the time comes to pay up. Fives of Clubs are unsurpassed in trade and brokerage, since they know how to establish connections with people on their own level. Fives of Clubs born under the signs of Gemini or Virgo often have a special power of suggestion or special ways of self-expression, which can bring great success in trade or brokerage. The natural curiosity of Fives of Clubs gives them much knowledge, but often they do not use it or get stuck on one thought. This feature turns them into sceptics, and at the same time they do not even take pleasure in their own convictions. Often Fives of Clubs take in arguments the side opposite to their point of view, and that is precisely why they do not become attached to one idea. In later years an interest in spiritual pursuits helps Fives of Clubs achieve greater satisfaction, and they receive answers to questions that bring peace and harmony into their life. In this respect a spiritual teacher may prove useful.

Relationships of the Five of Clubs with other people

Depending on the specific personality, the Five of Clubs may prove in the area of relationships either a blessing of fate or a curse. On the high level Fives of Clubs are progressive and can rely on any person of their level. They are attractive and sociable. On the other hand, the Five of Clubs' fear of obligations may be so strong that they will attract the most unusual situations and never be able to establish a calm and serious relationship with a partner. Their striving to avoid responsibility leads to emotional losses; everything depends on how the Five of Clubs themselves perceives this problem. Because of their restless nature the Five of Clubs is considered one of the most "unmarriageable" cards in the deck. Most such people avoid marital obligations by any means. If they are cunning enough, they will manage to make it look as if they are not marrying through the partner's fault. But in fact they feel a strong fear that any relationship may deprive them of freedom. Because of the striving to avoid obligations, and also because the Ace of Spades is their Venus Card, Fives of Clubs often start affairs with married people or secret love relationships. Moreover, they are distinguished by secretiveness in their personal life. The fate of most Fives of Clubs is the life of loners, but here too there are exceptions: some Fives of Clubs take up one definite pursuit and largely give themselves to love and work.

Compatibility of the Five of Clubs with other birth cards

Fives of Clubs of both sexes are often friends with Heart men, who answer them with love. But there is also a karmic connection between them that is at times difficult. Club women also like the company of Fives of Clubs of both sexes. A Five of Clubs woman can make a successful marriage with a Diamond man, and also usually attracts certain Spade men.

The happy Five of Clubs

An acquaintance of mine can serve as an example of many positive qualities of this Five of Clubs. Usually Fives of Clubs are dissatisfied with themselves. They complain that their merits never receive recognition, or are constantly worried about money. But my acquaintance is a person who has evidently fully accepted his restless and inquisitive nature and, having united these qualities, directed them along a constructive path in his life. Until the age of 41 he was never married and travelled a lot. In his life he had sufficient financial success and for a number of years could go without working. Remember that in the Life Spread of the Five of Clubs the Seven of Diamonds is the Jupiter Card. It often brings the Five of Clubs big money, which gave my acquaintance a natural feeling of abundance and well-being that seemed to accompany him everywhere. My acquaintance had periods in life when he changed his place of residence two or three times in a year. It seemed that he was constantly on the road, and he had many places he called home. He knew a lot about everything, and wherever he came, he had many friends everywhere. The absence of a wife did not trouble him. He was quite content with casual liaisons (which is unusual, since most people cannot emotionally come to terms with relationships of this kind). My acquaintance is very proud of his car. One gets the feeling that this car occupies a prominent place in his value system, embodying material freedom for him. This is a property of many Fives of Clubs. My acquaintance cares for and worries about his car incredibly and sometimes speaks of it as of a living being. My acquaintance represents the happy variant of the Five of Clubs. He has come to terms with his character and taken from it all the best that is possible. Happy Fives of Clubs are not met so often, but they do exist. Most people with this Birth Card are dissatisfied with their life and cannot resolve the inner conflict between the wish for freedom and the need for reliable foundations. To find happiness, the Five of Clubs must understand that they have come into our world to accumulate experience and ideas, and allow themselves to do this without any limitations. At the same time the Five of Clubs must keep faith that all their needs will be met when necessary. And then they will receive far more than is needed for a minimum standard of living. Their Jupiter Card — the Seven of Diamonds — is the card of true spirituality and material abundance, which belong to the Five of Clubs by right of birth.
