By nature the threes deal with creativity and growth. Like all Cartomancy cards, this can go in different directions. Take the celebratory three of Hearts, for example, and contrast it with the dire and dramatic three of Spades; some combinations are more constructive than others. Threes also indicate a turning point, moments that unfold after the director calls ‘action!’ They’re active and dynamic unlike the more stationary twos. Because of this threes show times when change is afoot and the querent can harness the energy presented to them as they see fit. The threes, a number that’s all about creation: the act of making something from the union of two. The most obvious and oft-cited metaphor for this is birth – a child created from two partners.

This could be due to delays or road blocks. Despite all this, the card reminds you that all of your work has not been for nothing, but rather that it has helped you with your personal strength and fortitude. The Three of Clubs reversed can also mean you need to take some time to plan your future.

The figure on The Three of Clubs knows this and always keeps his eyes open for how the future could change and it is a worthy lesson to learn.
