The King of Diamonds sometimes symbolizes a soldier, or more generally – a man in a dangerous occupation, exposed to risks of injury or violent death (policeman, firefighter, roof-tiler, aircraft pilot and similar professions with elevated risks). For a young woman or a divorced woman, the isolated card means a proposal for marriage from a man in a dangerous occupation.
It also represents a blond man, self-important, haughty, fearsome, deceitful; in a word, a bad man.
It is one of the cards whose meaning depends mostly on the cards surrounding it.
So the number of its exceptions, i.e. special cards that give it a different meaning, is quite varied, as you will see below.

This card announces, having on the right a
Spade ♠: Naughty, quarrelsome man, whom you should be wary of.
Heart ♥: A beginning of a relationship with someone, who is not good for you. If the consultant is married: new acquaintance not to be frequented.
Diamond ♦: Flatterer of which we have everything to fear.
Club ♣: Somebody will try to steal from you.

Having on the left a
Spade ♠: Obstacle in your projects by a blond man.
Heart ♥: Serious suitor. If the consultant is old or married: loving and honest man.
Diamond ♦: Quarrel.
Club ♣: Advantageous offer by a blond man.

EXCEPTIONS.
The King of diamonds placed between two face cards, whatever they may be, means: Disunity, confusion.
With the Jack of DiamondS: News from a young man in a dangerous profession.
Between two SpadeS: Rivalry.
With the Queen of HeartS: Love of a soldier. For married or elderly people: Upcoming acquaintance of an honest man, military.
Having an ace on the right, the usual meaning of the card on the left is nil. Instead, this announces, regardless of the colour of the card on the left – upcoming trip away related to some danger or a man in dangerous business.
The King of Diamonds, between two diamonds, announces the visit of a man from out of town.

The Ace of Spades, as well as the Ace of Clubs, is one of the most favourable cards. It means above all: Stocks, financial papers. It also announces forbidden pleasure, success with the girl or woman loved; passionate and sexually voracious love, marriage, happy future.
When reversed, this card means all the matters related to love. However, depending on its surroundings, Ace of spades becomes a rather dark omen: luck will not last, sadness will follow joy, the beloved woman will leave you behind, the man will deceive his mistress or his wife, passionate sex will turn into abuse; discord will reign in the household.
Despite these poor prognoses, this card is so good that everything it announces as bad will only be temporary, and the pain will turn into joy through other unforeseen circumstances, which will change the face of things.

Having on the right a
Spade ♠: good business papers – dividends, stock appreciation, bonus payments at work.

Diamond ♦: Deception. – Guilty passion. – Discord.
Club ♣: Money that is difficult to recover but not lost.

EXCEPTIONS.

If the card is reversed, it has the same meaning, but with a rather long delay.

The Ten of Spades means: Mourning, crying, sadness, despair, prison, disappointment.
It’s a bad card.
However, its meaning is attenuated according to its surroundings.
