What the Ace of Diamonds Means
The Ace of Diamonds is the message. In the old English systems it meant a letter, a ring, a proposal or a sum of money: something concrete arriving from outside. It is the suit at full strength, so it is a beginning in practical terms: a contract, an offer, a payment, news that changes your plans. Diamonds are the suit of the material world, and the Ace says the material world is about to deliver. What it delivers depends on the cards around it, but it is rarely small.

The Suit of Diamonds
Diamonds are the suit of the material world: money, property, contracts, news, journeys with a purpose, and the people who deal in them. A reading full of Diamonds says the matter is practical, and that the answer will arrive as something concrete: a message, a payment, an offer, a trip. The suit is neither kind nor cruel; it describes what is on the table. Old cartomancers gave the suit the autumn, the harvest season, and matched it with the Pentacles of the tarot.
