Eight of Clubs

Eight of Clubs combines Eight themes of power, disciplined force, mastery, and momentum with Clubs themes of mind, language, ideas, communication, and learning.

Infinite mental power to elegantly resolve any problem

Tuned in and mindfully aware; present, curious, and eager to learn

Locked up inside one's heard; refusing to listen to an alternative perspective

Stubborn and willful; bullying others with one's ideas and trying to enforce one's opinions

Over-analyzing one's life and over-thinking everything in one's life

Overly competitive; thinking that everything is a competition

Graceful and gracious with the application of one's intelligence

Accomplished and successful; able to apply one's analytic power to get the job done

Playing small; afraid of taking on the perceived responsibility of leadership roles

Over-analyzing, over-thinking, and over-working actually work against one

Lazy; trying to avoid the necessary work that one perceive as too hard

"Missing the forest for the trees;" getting stuck in a small-minded rut obsessing over minutiae

Focusing one's mental power to educate others and realize meaningful common goals

Mentally and verbally controlling with passive-aggressive power plays

Rationalizing one's feelings; distrustful of one's passions

Acting as a know-it-all and talking down to others in a polite, know-it-all tone of voice

Trying too hard to smooth everything over, avoid conflict, and keep the peace

A good listener who actively incorporates one's partner's perspective

Trying to sedate one's throbbing thoughts with food, alcohol, or drugs

Living in denial and willful ignorance of nagging symptoms, disharmony, and dis-ease

Dissociation, which leads to a mentally divided and disconnected experience

Happily focused on the optimization of one's health and wellbeing
