Knight of Swords
"A knight charges at full gallop with sword raised against the wind: the swift action that does not weigh the consequences."
Upright meaning
The Knight of Swords is the drive of the mind hurled into action: straight, fast, and without hesitation toward its goal. It speaks of determination, of defending an idea with everything, of cutting clean and moving forward. He is brave and brilliant, but his haste can flatten whatever stands in his path.
Reversed meaning
Reversed, the gallop runs wild. Recklessness, aggression, rash decisions, or energy that attacks without strategy. So much speed without brakes ends up crashing.
In love
Someone arriving like a storm, or an intense but impatient passion. See that the drive does not run you over.
In work and money
Advance decisively toward your goal, but not so fast that you mow everything down. Speed with direction.
The card's advice
Charge with courage, but watch where: a raised sword without direction wounds anyone.
