King of Clubs

"The King of Clubs represents a man of wide and diversified interests, outwardly sociable, but inwardly secretive and reserved. This man will not be easy to know, for his external appearance may belie his inner strength and his natural reticence may cloak his sensitivity and idealism. 

"The King of Clubs will have learned to adapt himself to the world about him. He may appear cynical, autocratic, harsh, or even unfeeling but, in his heart, he is a crusader, crying out against injustice and eager to help his fellow men. He has been hurt many times and therefore he has built a wall about his inner being to insulate himself from criticism. 

"This man will have many talents, some of which he may have developed secretly, not disclosing his interest even to those closest to him. Such a man will find routine employment or conducting a business boring and confining, but he may deliberately choose such work in order that his freedom be unencumbered during his leisure hours. He may even be very successful in enterprises which are distasteful to him provided he has other interests to satisfy his intellectual curiosity and surplus energies. 

"The King of Clubs is often a lonely man. The sympathetic understanding of a woman will be vital to his happiness, but he will have difficulty in making his wants known. He is easily discouraged in matters of romance and, in consequence, often plays the passive role. He is susceptible to flattery and, although he will not admit it, tends to place a woman on a pedestal. 

"There is a natural affinity between the Queen of Diamonds and the King of Clubs. In her shrewdness, the Queen of Diamonds will bring out this man's good points and exploit his talents. Her restless drive will incite him to greater activity and her determination to live fully will act as a challenge to his ingenuity and creative skill. 

"On the other hand, the Queen of Spades is inimical to the King of Clubs. Her haughty manner and concealed passions will deter him from the use of his talents. Where such a mis-mating occurs, both partners will withdraw to their inner recesses until no genuine contact exists between them. 

"When the King of Clubs appears in the middle of the spread of a male Querent, the indication is that it represents his own character and personality. When this card appears in the wings, it is more likely to represent a close friend, relative or business associate of the Querent. 

"When the King of Clubs appears in the middle of the spread of a female Querent, the indication is that such a man is playing a dominant rôle in her life. On the wings, the King of Clubs is likely to represent a man who will be significant in her life, but to a lesser degree. 

"A spread which includes both the King of Clubs and the Queen of Spades is likely to augur a broken home, domestic unhappiness or a marital rift. This will be intensified if cards which designate quarrels or misfortunes lie between these two face cards."

Reading #8: P. L.

The deck used was the Cat and Canary pack. They were spread remotely. The spread is as shown above and laid out in the directions given by Wenzell Brown in his book How to Tell Fortunes With Cards .  Center Card : "By and large, the central card (number 1) represents either the Querent (the sitter), his personality and the nature of his problems, or the primary influences which are moving through his life at the present moment." Three of Hearts "The Three of Hearts represents a disappointment in love, a minor setback in one's plans or an error in judgement. The appearance of the Three of Hearts is a warning that the pathway ahead is not straight, that there are pitfalls lying there to trip the unwary.  "The Three of Hearts may also warn of self-delusion. The Querent may have a subconscious knowledge that he is handicapping himself or causing himself unhappiness by his reluctance to make changes. For a variety of reasons he may be loath to face the situation or h...

Reading #6: B. S.

The deck used is the The Valet deck. They were spread remotely and recreated on my board at home. As I get further into this exercise I plan to eliminate the laborious details of each card's meaning and instead only include the details pertinent to the spread and any relevant rejoinders while linking to the card at hand. The spread is as shown above and laid out in the directions given by Wenzell Brown in his book How to Tell Fortunes With Cards.  Center Card :  "By and large, the central card (number 1) represents either the Querent (the sitter), his personality and the nature of his problems, or the primary influences which are moving through his life at the present moment." Ace of Clubs "The Ace of Clubs is a card of talent. It tells of high hopes and ambitions and denotes strong passions, imagination, energy and the power to communicate with others. Inherent in the card, however, is the suggestion that promises are unfulfilled, talents unchanneled, and the maximu...

Reading #9: M. M.

The deck used was the Dun Huang pack. They were spread remotely. The spread is as shown above and laid out in the directions given by Wenzell Brown in his book How to Tell Fortunes With Cards .  I've altered my schema for this reading by only including the pertinent information for each card instead of highlighting it as in past readings. The meanings of each card can be found either in the click through link in the first mention of each in the synopsis or by searching for each card on the blog. Center Card :  "By and large, the central card (number 1) represents either the Querent (the sitter), his personality and the nature of his problems, or the primary influences which are moving through his life at the present moment." Ace of Clubs " The Ace of Clubs is a card of talent. It tells of high hopes and ambitions and denotes strong passions, imagination, energy and the power to communicate with others.
