Knight of Swords

A valiant young Knight charges ahead into the storm, horse in full gallop, sword raised in the air, such courage. The Knight of Swords suppresses his emotions he sees no value in them, He must keep his emotions well under control, “the heart is the center of emotions/compassion, but it is also the center of fear”. This knight is fearless and never anticipates defeat. He thinks himself invincible, this can make him dangerous.

On the other hand he is the one to run with a new idea or project. His refusal to back down makes him strong and intimidating. I also see this card of a sudden coming and going of a person or event. Perhaps a conflict or a resignation. To me this can be a violent card; if this card represents a person they will leave chaos in their wake.

Direct: courage, impulsive, lots of action, sexual, passionate, ambitious, will not let you get emotionally close, success if willing to work for it, will love and leave.

Reversed: lack of courage, out of control, vengeful, recklessly endangers others, fighting wrong battles, gossip, distracted.
