Vendredi: Two of Diamonds

This card is frequently interpreted as a portend of change for the better.  If your querent has had an illness in the family, or has been sick themselves, relief and health are on the horizon.  Financial setbacks will abate in favor of economic stability.  Legal matters will go in the querent’s favor.  A troubled relationship will either be repaired or end amicably.

All that said, the Two of Diamonds also holds more than a little resemblance to the Two of Pentacles in the Tarot.  It is the card of the juggler; the person who is able to keep more than one ball in the air successfully.  This card often turns up when I’m reading for a busy single parent who manages to keep just the right balance between their own life, that of their children and work.  Honestly, those are the hardest working people I know and therefore the best analogy for this card. 

As always, look at the cards that surround this one in the spread.  Generally speaking though, no matter how “bad” the nearby cards seem, this one indicates that the querent will come through the adversity with flying colors.  Vendredi heureux ~
