How to Read the Ace of  Hearts:

Traditionally the Ace of Hearts is a card of love. happiness and celebrations.  The Ace symbolism combined with the Heart symbolism may indicate the birth of a new love, or the beginning of an emotionally fulfilling period in the querent’s life.

The number 1 symbolizes the beginning, or source.  When combined with the suit of hearts, it denotes the source of one’s emotional support which in most cases is the home and the family.

The Ace of Hearts specifically symbolizes the home and domestic affairs. It can refer to the actual building in which one resides, or it can denote the idea of feeling comfortable and “at home.” It can describe your personal environment, your neighborhood, where you hang your hat. In a general sense the A♥ represents a strong foundation.

The A♥ can indicate a change of residence, or a return home after being away for a period of time.  The A♥ can refer to real estate and the sale or purchase of a home.  The  A♥ can also represent a specific family member, or refer to one’s family in general.

My grandmother called the A♥ “La Casa” which means “the house” or “home” in Italian.  For her this card would denote wherever a person held residence.  It could be a house, an
apartment, a hotel, or even a car if that was where the individual called “home.”  The surrounding card would reveal the current situation in the home, and any problems or changes affecting the querent's home life.

The A♥ is also a card of protection. I can remember my grandmother sliding an Ace
of Hearts inside the picture frame behind a photo before she hung it on the wall. She believed the Ace would protect the home and bring good luck.
