Knight of Swords
Upright Meaning
The Knight of Swords represents energy, speed and determination. The asker is highly ambitious and motivated to manifest their ideas. This card is a reminder to slow down and enjoy the journey. Productivity has often been glorified in society, but often comes at the detriment of personal fulfillment. The Knight of Swords tells us to move forward methodically with a decisive plan, but also take time to smell the roses.
Upright Meaning (continued)
This card also signifies the asker's goals are within reach! They are ready to bring their plans into reality with focus, strength and courage.
Reversed Meaning
The Knight of Swords reversed indicates the asker is either scattering their energy in too many places, or is going full speed ahead with a decision without a plan. This card is a reminder to slow down, take a breath and reflect on where they are channeling their energy. They must ensure their mind, body and spirit are aligned before taking decisive action.
Reversed Meaning (continued)
This card is also a sign they must take time to connect with their inner voice. When we are going a hundred miles an hour, we often lose sight of our soul's ultimate purpose. It is important to ensure how we are leading our life is harmonized and prioritized as much as what we are doing.
