I was doing an exercise the other day where I went through the suites in order and tried to connect each card to the one before and after it in a "story" because I know the suites and Majors are supposed to represent cycles. I got some perspective on Wands, Cups, and Pentacles, but when it came to Swords I was lost! The cards don't seem to connect to one another very much, especially not in a way resembling a journey leading up to the courts (mastery of that suite). And so many of the Swords cards seem so negative to me, I had a really difficult time putting a positive spin on most of them (3 of Swords, 5 of Swords, 7 + 8 + 9 + 10 of Swords). I just don't see a journey of positive growth in this suite at all, and I'm not feeling super about it.
How should I be looking at these cards?
