25/03/18: Abandoned playing card #14: nine of spades

Whetstone. What does the internet say about the nine of spades? Well, it claims that: "The Nine of Spades has the strongest calling to let go of attachments in life and move toward giving to others. Answering the call of a spiritual life and trust in a benign universe is the life task of the Nine of Spades person. Influenced heavily by kingly energy, a certain amount of dignity accompanies this card. Their King of Hearts card in Venus suggests strong parental values and deep commitment to their children. They take their role as head of household quite seriously. This card also provides them a certain charm with the public and an ability to control their emotions. Being out in front of others provides them an opportunity to use their innate gifts for the benefit of others. Blessed with charisma and charm, they can excel in public positions."
