Knight of Swords
Bold messages and sudden revelations are central to the Knight of Swords: gossip, oversharing, or lies may come to light and unexpectedly affect your reputation. Be cautious with speech—misspeaking or revealing too much can either relieve you or damage your name. In work matters the card can indicate surprise news about money and the need for airtight communications; in love it points to intellectual charmers whose actions should be watched more closely than their words. When representing another person, the Knight describes a witty, diplomatic individual who may not be fully truthful; as a self-card it urges you to seek mental companionship and to deliver necessary hard truths so healing can begin.

Visual Description
A mounted knight in mid-charge grips a raised sword while riding a pale horse across a pink landscape. The knight wears a feathered helmet and a flowing cape, with patterned clothing and a visible arm tattoo. The horse’s eyes are half-closed and decorated with lashes, and a bare tree stands to the left under a pale sky with scattered clouds. The scene is framed by a painted border with the title 'KNIGHT of SWORDS' at the bottom.
