General Love Meaning
Don't take things at face value or blindly believe what people tell you without solid proof. Something unreliable is happening and you won't want to ignore this message from the Seven of Swords. No matter the reasons behind dishonest words and actions; what matters is that someone is not being honest in the current situation. Keep in mind that things are not what they seem.
Single and Loving
Are you aware of what you're doing and the consequences it entails? Sure, sometimes we make a mistake and act foolishly and a bit out of place. Or, we might even splash a lie or two here and there. You just need to know that if you're trying to do something cunning, it won't turn out as you wanted.
Ready for Love / Dating
There's nothing wrong with doing a little online research about the person you're dating to make sure they're above board. What's wrong is stalking them. Love can make people do very unusual things. Usually, there's a reason why someone feels they have to spy on another or find dirt on a friend's current boyfriend. Be careful not to cross the line.
Committed Relationship
The Seven of Swords often points to someone being dishonest. Whether it's small lies or cheating, it will always catch up to the dishonest person. It's better to be sincere now than to let things get worse over time. If you suspect there's infidelity in your relationship and this card comes up in a reading, it's a sign that you should trust your instinct.
Struggling Relationship
Is someone in your relationship avoiding confrontation and difficult conversations? If it's you, it's time to work around the conflict and learn to communicate effectively. If it's your partner and you're allowing that behavior, stop it. You're not serving anyone by protecting people from their responsibilities.
The End
This is a positive card for relationships that ended because it's a sign that you did the right thing and that you're better off alone. It's normal to worry after a breakup about having done something wrong, so breathe easy; you're exactly where you need to be.
Visual Description
A young woman with long green hair and a purple dress is climbing out of a window, one leg already extended outside while she holds a small purple clutch and a pair of shoes in her right hand. Behind her the window shows dark blue panes and pale curtains framing the opening. Seven swords are visible on the ground below: five standing blade-first in the grass and two lying flat near them. The scene uses deep purples, blues, and greens and the woman looks back over her shoulder as she leaves.
