3♠ - Three of Spades
the card of the artist
The Spade Threes have the opportunity to achieve great success in life if they strive for it. They are under a heavier burden than most other people (this is indicated by the position of the Three of Spades in the Saturn row of the Main Life Set). However, if they make an effort, they will receive the generous gifts of Jupiter - the planet in whose column this card stands. The Six of Diamonds as the Karmic Card tells us that the Spade Threes have a karmic debt to pay, related to finance or values in the broadest sense of the word. People with this Birth Card often communicate with the Six of Diamonds, paying off debts of this kind. The main lesson of the Three of Spades is to learn responsibility and honesty in financial transactions and in relation to money in general. The Spade Threes often have to go through a series of trials in which they become victims of dishonesty in the financial sphere. But the Karmic Card, the Six of Diamonds, indicates that all these trials are just debts from past lives.
Spade Threes can show indecision in matters of work or health; they need to be very careful about their health. The more they worry about their health, the worse their condition may become, so they need to be especially attentive to their thoughts and feelings in this area. As a rule, health problems in these people arise due to emotional stress. Too diligent work and career worries often distract the attention of the Spade Threes from their physical and emotional state. With their great creative potential, they are extremely susceptible to nervous shocks.
The Jupiter Card for the Spade Threes is the Queen of Spades (whose Karmic Card is the Ten of Diamonds). It gives the opportunity for major success in business, as it helps to develop a perfect inner value system. Business can become one of the best paths to happiness for the Three of Spades. In addition, these people are endowed with artistic talent and can express themselves brilliantly in any field of their choice. If they decide what is most important in their life, they will be able to achieve everything they want. Luck also awaits them in the trade and advertising fields, although these areas will not fully reveal their talents like the artistic activity. Spade Threes can engage in multiple activities in parallel and often do so, although here they should be careful and not take on too many responsibilities.
All Threes are extremely creative and inventive cards, so they are tempted to lie or tell half-truths to make their lives easier. In the case of the Three of Spades, this is especially true, since its second Karmic Card is the Jack of Diamonds. Spade Threes easily compose convincing stories and never lack profitable ideas. However, with the Jack of Clubs as the Saturn Card, they will always face problems or disappointments if they allow even the slightest deviation from the truth. The desired success will come to them only when they consciously choose the path of the highest honesty and self-sacrifice. Among the Spade Threes are many of the most outstanding and famous artists.
The Three of Spades is a highly creative and romantic personality. It needs a partner with similar qualities. The Three of Spades faces many obstacles in love, associated with an inner fear of loneliness or rejection; however, in general, people with this Birth Card have a good chance of a successful marriage. The Spade Threes need an outlet for their creative potential, and if they do not find a constructive application for their creative abilities, they usually try to compensate for this failure with numerous extramarital affairs.
Partners with a critical mind and a pessimistic view of life often end up next to the Spade Threes. But on the other hand, these same partners usually earn a lot of money, which is important for the Three of Spades. The Spade Threes are endowed with a considerable share of idealism, which can also manifest itself in the romantic sphere. They are capable of truly spiritual love. Intending to enter into marriage, they often set lofty goals for themselves. But the same idealism sometimes prevents them from correctly assessing the negative qualities of partners, and as a result, the Spade Three may give their love to a person unworthy of her dream.
The Three of Spades often needs to overcome emotional problems that arose in childhood before she has the opportunity to happily enter into marriage. In addition, the Spade Threes should develop a positive intellectual attitude towards love. People with this Birth Card are restless, and this quality can adversely affect their romantic life. It is not very easy, but quite possible to find a partner with such a combination of character traits that would correspond to the diversity of the Three of Spades itself.
The Spade Threes-men are considered quite attractive by Clover women. The Threes of Spades of both sexes get along quite well with Clover men, although they themselves are far from a gift. Even Clover men can sometimes have a hard time with them. The Spade Three-women are sympathetic to the Hearts men.
It is curious how much the Threes have in common with the Page cards of the corresponding suits. Despite the fact that the Page number (11) is so far from the Three, the Pages often exhibit precisely the same qualities as the Threes. A good example of this is the Three and the Page of Spades. The former is the card of the artist, the latter is the card of the actor. At the same time, many Threes of Spades are great actors, and many Page of Spades are great artists. Spades is the strongest suit in the deck. Hearts symbolize feelings, Clubs - thoughts. Diamonds - values or desires, and Spades - our real activity. The creative representatives of the Spade suit are much more interested in the perfection of their actions than in the feelings, ideas or value of what they create. The Spade artist is a true master of his craft, which is manifested in the character of both the Three and the Page of Spades. The Three of Spades can become an artist, actor, musician or performer in any field of life.
Like the Page, the Three of Spades is characterized by a romantic streak. We have already mentioned that the 5th astrological House, which governs creative self-expression, is also associated with romantic and sexual pleasures. Both the Page and the Three of Spades have special talents in this area. Anyone who has been in a marriage or romantic relationship with such people can confirm that they are excellent lovers.
But this does not mean at all that the Spade Threes and Pages are ideal spouses. It is well known that the love life of actors, artists and musicians is often an endless stream of changing romantic infatuations. And even upon entering into marriage, they do not abandon secret love affairs. They are unfamiliar with the desire to devote themselves entirely to one partner. If we come to the bank to take out a loan, we will be trusted less after learning that we are actors or artists. The degree of trust in a person is related to his ability to firmly adhere to one chosen direction in life. And romantic and creative personalities lack this quality. Constancy of effort does not attract them. However, exceptions to this rule are those Threes and Pages of Spades who have truly found themselves in their work. Then they have the opportunity to invest all their creative potential in their work and do not feel the need to seek new areas of application of their abilities.
