She skillfully navigates through the fog of negative emotions and sees the roots and developmental paths of any issue. She rapidly weighs and evaluates situations, using her sharp insight to instantly understand the essence of problems. This Queen is a master at reading subtle signs such as voice tone or body language, and therefore easily recognizes hidden desires or feelings, effortlessly able to eliminate complexity in any situation.
Deeper Understanding
At first glance, the Queen of Swords may give the impression of being cold and calculating, but upon closer examination she proves to be decisive, determined, and full of dignity. She boldly faces facts and speaks truth without embellishment, clearly, precisely, and objectively, no matter how unpleasant that truth might be. She represents that light which exposes hidden truths and gives us the opportunity to understand that all our fears are merely shadows. She illuminates all negative emotions, allowing us to see that their apparent necessity is false, and to realize that they are nothing more than ordinary defense mechanisms.
Transformative Power
The sharp blade of her sword easily cuts away negative feelings from us, helping us realize the nature of our fears and free ourselves from phantoms so that our authentic personality can shine again in its true light. Often we prefer to hide behind masks because we don't feel safe; but the Queen of Swords decisively, mercilessly, and purposefully separates the higher abilities of intellect from our lower nature, thereby liberating our heart and mind.
Call to Authenticity
The Queen of Swords is attentive, reasonable, ambitious, and successful. She is not easily deceived, especially in matters concerning emotions. She demands that we constantly ask ourselves whether we are honest with those around us and whether other people are honest with us. Perhaps circumstances will force us to get to the very core of a problem, or we ourselves will ask a question, or we will be compelled to find a position where thinking and emotions cease to conflict. Additionally, she may predict the emergence of a need for self-analysis or the revelation of certain secrets and mysteries.
