Category:Swords (Tarot)

Swords is a Tarot suit consisting of 14 cards like the other suits. Usually attributed to the element Air.

Meaning
Each card in the Swords suit represents one of the three phases of thought and communication: a "thought" as a mental communication, discussion of a thought with others, and experiencing the expression of a thought. Swords represent thoughts/ideas and communication. Many Sword cards appearing in a spread represent a situation not dominated by actions or results, but rather analysis. A reading without any Swords might indicate an excess of emotion and process without any plan or analysis.
