King of Swords
The King of Swords warns of cold, ruthless authority and tells you that the empire you have built is not as infallible as it seems, highlighting a major power imbalance that requires honest reassessment. Upright, it emphasizes inhumanity, extortion, vanity, and the need to come to terms with whether you are demanding too much or being pinned down by others. Reversed, it points to tests of leadership, authority, discipline, and logic, calling for steady commitment to justice and vision. You are urged to prepare to defend your position while remaining true to yourself and compassionate toward others.
