That's really odd because I was convinced everyone else would prefer red to black and I'd be the odd one out. But it seems everyone else goes for the spades too.
When I was a girl I identified with the Queen of Spades. No idea why. So yes, in ascending order clubs, diamonds, hearts, spades.
Interestingly if you apply this to the tarot you get wands, pentacles, cups, swords, which corresponds in my deck to fire, earth, water and air. I am definitely an air/water person with a fair dollop of earth but have trouble with the fire part, so my preference for playing card suits turns out to be reflected in my nature, even though I was unaware of the correspondences as a child.
Spooky, eh?

Hmm, yeah - that pretty much works for me, too, I think. My suit preferences translate into earth - water - fire - air in that order, which is about how I would rank my preferences for the elements as well. Maybe I would list fire first instead of air, but earth and water are definitely in the right places.
