Description : Nine of spades
The nine of spades is particularly dark according to cartomancy, and it may have different significations depending on the consultant’s gender. If the consultant is a woman, it refers to death when associated with the Queen and Ace of spades. If the consultant is a man, the bad aspects of the card are revealed with the Jack and Ace of spades.
Nevertheless, we have to put things into perspective, as in divinatory tarot, death, represented by the Unnamed arcane (XIII), announces the realization of something: a project or a situation. Death does not necessarily refer to the end of life and can evoke positive things.
The consultant
With the stronger spade cards, the nine of spades evokes death; but you should put things into perspective, as it is often the end of something. It can represent the end of a celibacy period, a union or adulthood. You are about to finish something and the nine of spades announces renewal. In the upcoming weeks, you will take some distance and things will evolve. The other cards from the reading will indicate the positive or negative aspects of this situation. On the emotional level, the heart cards could be a good omen.
