Four of Swords
The 4 of Swords embodies Nelokhiel, an angel who fosters intellectual growth and expansive thinking, especially in areas like literature and science. While the card highlights the desire for knowledge and consciousness expansion, it also warns of possible negative effects, such as introversion and isolation. This may lead to loneliness and prejudice, and a refusal to adapt to changes. The card aligns with the Thrones, the Sun, and the sign of Cancer.

Main meaning
Nelokhiel inspires a strong desire for learning, thereby advancing our intellect through the expansion of consciousness and the ability to project oneself outward. This Angel is active where research in literature, poetry, astronomy, or science is required. However, its influence may lead to excessive introversion and isolation, ultimately causing suffering from loneliness and fostering prejudices towards what is outside us, arrogance, or rejection of any changes that rob us of our customary way of life.
