Weekly Tarot Card – Queen of Swords

spiritedtarot

Facing to the right or the future in Tarot terms, this Queen sits on her throne adorned with angels and butterflies holding a sword upright in her right hand of action while extending her left hand in a soothing gesture of grace. Her relatively stern facial expression belies great mental clarity. She is nobody’s fool and can cut through a fiction as neatly as the double-edged sword she wields. Will she strike you dead or dub thee knight?

The sky for the most part is a clear blue with a bird winging through perhaps with a message for you. Puffs of clouds recede in the distance. Trees stand upright on fertile ground with a river running through. The mind sifts through cloudy thoughts to gain clarity.

Although we might fear this queen’s judgment we notice the butterflies and angels in her clothes, crown and throne and we realize that she is fundamentally a champion of transformation and wants the best for us.

This week you are to use your powers of discernment to seek out the truth in situations. See them for what they are and build a foundation of clarity so that you can grow along a positive path of evolution.

This queen has very good posture. She sits upright in her throne with angel and butterfly carvings. Her cloak is blue with puffs of white clouds and her crown is of golden butterflies. Angels are messengers of divine wisdom and butterflies catalogue the metamorphosis of inspirational growth. She holds a sword upright in her right hand and extends her left hand in a gesture of grace. Judgement and mercy melded in her pronouncements. She is just in her assessment of our efforts and encourages us to use our thoughts wisely. Be fair, honest, good and true in all our endeavors and we will fly like the bird up above.

Weekly Tarot Card – King of Swords

He sits on a throne of stone adorned with butterfly and crescent moon carvings. They appear to be in contrast to his stern glaze and the double edged sword he holds upright in his right hand of action. Or, are they? This is a king who rules with his mind. He sees clearly and is decisive based on reasoned fairness. He does not allow his emotions to cloud his judgment, although by the look of his tilted sword and his robes of blue he acknowledges that mercy and compassion are necessary to temper the severity of the intellect in action. He sits on a verdant precipice–he is not afraid of what lies ahead for his way will nurture and give protection to new beginnings and the evolution of goodness.
