Love cards: Eight of Diamonds

Being the Sun Card, the Eight of Diamonds has the opportunity to rise to the very pinnacle of success. Regardless of whether it strives for fame or not, it will always be respected. Diamond Eights love to "shine" and inspire admiration in other people; they are endowed with the talent of a leader. People born under the influence of this card are very strong, but if they become dependent on their strength, they will turn into tyrants. They work off most of their negative karma in power struggles and the struggle for power with other people. They do not like to be controlled, and always try to maintain a leading role in any relationship.

The power of the Eight and its position in the "crown" top row of the Life Path endow this card with a desire for independence and a "driving" character. Diamond Eights know the price of everything and are capable of handling the most complex situation. For many of them, power is equated with wealth and the ability to spend a lot of money. The latter often becomes a bad habit. Diamond Eights can squander a huge amount in an instant.

However, they can achieve everything they want through incredible diligence and innate intuition. If the Diamond Eight learns to direct its power inward for the purposes of personal transformation and stops trying to change the outside world, it will find stable inner harmony and self-control - the key concepts of its Karmic Card, the Queen of Spades.

Diamond Eights are intelligent and very curious. If they want to know something, nothing can stop them. Their immense power allows them to achieve victories and wisely lead other people, if they apply this power in the right direction. Sometimes Diamond Eights are afraid or unwilling to take on the responsibility associated with this power, but in doing so, they lose the lion's share of the potential given to them.

In love, Diamond Eights are inconstant and irresolute. Their independent, changeable nature resists stable relationships. In other cases, the Eight of Diamonds often attracts partners who themselves do not want stability and marriage. Many Diamond Eights practice "serial monogamy": over the course of their lives, they change three, four or more marriage partners. They need variety in love, which can almost never be provided by one and the same person.

Diamond Eights must learn to give their partners freedom of self-expression and not try to change them. In addition, they must accept themselves as they are and direct their love not only to other people, but also to themselves. The Ace of Spades as the Card of Cosmic Reward and the Seven of Hearts as the Card of Pluto indicate that the main task of the Diamond Eight is by no means the successful suppression of the partner's personality, but the awareness of its own fear of being left alone.

As a rule, the Eight of Diamonds knows what it wants and strives for it purposefully. But, unfortunately, the object of its aspirations changes quite soon.

In most cases, the wisest solution to this problem will be the habit of always putting career interests above personal relationships. Otherwise, the Diamond Eight risks losing part of its power. Diamond Eights of both sexes get along well with representatives of the Club suit. If they can give up their possessive tendencies in love, they will find true happiness.

Diamond Eight women are ideally suited for marriage to Spade men, especially if they are successful and strong people. A lifelong beautiful friendship is possible with Club men. Diamond Eight men often attract the sympathy of Heart women, and Club women are capable of bringing them true happiness. But they are best compatible with Spade women, although before drawing conclusions in this case, one always needs to study the specific connections between the Birth Cards.

For most Diamond Eights, a dazzling sunny smile is characteristic. It seems as if they are shining with sunlight. The Eight of Diamonds is the card of Leo, regardless of which sun sign its representative was born under. In the horoscope of the Diamond Eight, the sign of Leo is almost certainly clearly manifested. Even in the appearance of these people there is something leonine, such as a thick mane of hair. Of course, not all Diamond Eight women belong to this type of appearance, but most of them do.

Another notable feature of the Diamond Eight is the tendency to use brute force when it comes to money and business. If necessary, they will make anyone do even an uncharacteristic act. Even if a Diamond Eight woman appears meek, she actually knows her own worth and is capable of much. When it comes to money, the Eight of Diamonds displays extraordinary willpower, and in some cases even ruthlessness. The influence of Pluto, Scorpio or the 8th House is very often noticeable in the horoscopes of Diamond Eights.
