King of Swords


The King of Swords has a very direct look.  He sits on a high backed throne and robes are fairly simple looking for a king.  In his right hand he holds a raised sword and behind him are trees and clouds. 

You get the feeling from The King of Swords that you wouldn't mess with him and get away with it.  He has a sharp intellect that will see right through any scam or attempt to fool him.  He is highly intelligent and logical and will work through any problem and find a solution with apparent ease.  When you and I would be running round asking what on earth we're going to do, the King of Swords comes along and everything falls into place.  He knows the way to do it and he is always right.

If there is any kind of confusion surrounding a situation you can be sure that this King will see through it and sort it out clearly so that others are in no doubt as to the logic and truth of the matter. He is a very moral and non judgemental sort of person and people around him often want to follow his lead. If you want an arbitrator then this is the person to ask. 

If you have drawn this card then it is an indication that you need to take some of the King's energy and be less critical.  If you tend to go up in the air at the slightest thing then think about the King of Swords.  He achieves solutions with patient logic and this can only happen if you stop panicking.  Slow down, think things through to their logical conclusion and work out calmly how to achieve success. You also need to be completely honest in your dealings with other people.  They will thank you for it and you will soon gain a reputation for being honest and trustworthy.  

 

Your daily tarot card
There are times when all of us feel that we need some guidance in life, especially when we feel unsure about the path we're taking. A daily tarot card can often help you to see things a bit more clearly. There is no magic in this. What you are doing is drawing on your inner resources and strength. You are using your intuition and the illustration on the card to help you to see things in every possible light. I find that rather than relying on a computer to draw the daily card for me it's best to have an actual deck that I can draw a card from myself. The deck I'm using here is the Universal Rider Waite deck which is easily available online. Some of the auctions are shown below, or for more information visit our Rider Waite page.
