The Swords Suit: Cards and Meanings
The suit of Air: thought, conflict, the search for truth and communication. Most of the deck's hardest cards sit here, and not by accident — Swords also describe the wounds the mind inflicts on itself. Still, the suit's essence is sharpness: clear thinking is a blade too.
When the suit dominates a spread
A spread full of Swords shows someone overthinking, or something that needed saying left unsaid. The advice in this suit is usually to get clear: decide, speak, cut.
