Ace of Spades: Meaning in Playing Card Reading
The suit of Spades covers hardship, worry, conflict. I will tell you what this card means and how to read it in love.
What the card means
The ace of spades is a blow and serious news: a trouble, an important official matter, sometimes a state office. The heaviest of the aces, and still only a turn in the road.

A serious talk, a falling out, an anxious piece of news.
Ace of Spades with the cards around it
Its own spades nearby sharpen this blow: the serious trouble, the official matter and the anxious news all gather force. Hearts or diamonds beside it soften the ace, and comfort follows the blow or the matter turns into lighter bother. A court card close by points to who this official weight comes from. The closer the ace lies to your card, the steeper the turn, and there is still no ending for your story written into it.
Neighbours in a spread change the force of a card: its own suit strengthens it, another suit softens or complicates it, and court cards nearby point to real people.
