OVERVIEW:
|
| Out of
3 cards, 2 are Swords and 1 is Cups. The theme is of the mind (Swords)
manifesting desire (Cups). |
| CARD 1:
The Present (from which we can see behind us and before us)
|
 | Ace
of Cups: This is a card overflowing with emotions. It is the
spark of inspiration that drives love, creativity, and psychic gifts.
It could mean the beginning of a relationship, the rekindling of
feelings, a passionate dedication to a cause, or the motivation to
follow our hearts. It is a time when emotions flower, and provides the
compassion through which old wounds can heal. |
| CARD 2:
The Past (where the root of the issue lies)
|
 |
Ace
of Swords: This card is the triumph of the intellect. It is
strength in adversity. A metaphorical sword to defend yourself in a
difficult situation. It means victory in debate and mastery of words.
It is new ideas and finding solutions to a problem. It is clear,
rational thought. Actions carried out with impeccable timing.
Strength, willpower, and courage. |
| CARD 3:
The Future (if we stay the course)
|
 |
Knight
of Swords: This card refers either to a person you know,
an aspect of your own personality, or even an event. This Knight is not one that likes to
beat around the bush. He is brave, bold, and often ruthless in his
methods. He will charge onto the scene, seize what he wants, and not
concern himself with those who get trampled along the way. His energy is
very volatile so you must be careful how you use it. When properly
channeled, he is strong enough to overcome any obstacle and is a valiant
champion for a good cause. When his powers are misdirected, he can be
violent and cruel. |
| SYNTHESIS:
|
| This
is a case of a strong emotional desire framed and tempered by rational thought. The two aces represent new beginnings and a balance
between mind and heart. The recent past brought a new, innovative idea
that you have given a lot of thought to. This has blossomed into a
passionate, creative drive to bring it into existence. In the near
future, these two will come together and you ride forward as the
Knight of Swords. You hold the original idea in your hands as a sword
to cut through your opposition and bring your plans to fruition, but
your motivation to do so is fueled by the heart. Few things can stop
the forceful advent of the Knight of Swords, but while you
single-mindedly pursue your goal, take care not to step on too many
toes or ruin relationships. Make sure the world you create is a place
you still want to live in once the adrenaline is gone. |
