Page of Swords
Upright Meaning
A young figure stands on rough ground, holding a sword aloft as the wind whips clouds and trees. Their stance is alert, ready, head turned as if listening to something just out of frame. The Page of Swords is the mind's scout — endlessly curious, mentally quick, and sometimes too clever for their own good. This card often announces new information arriving, a need for vigilance, or the emergence of an idea that needs testing against reality.
Reversed Meaning
Reversed, the Page of Swords' quickness becomes recklessness. Curiosity becomes nosiness, cleverness becomes manipulation, and ideas are spoken before they're thought through. This may represent gossip, hasty communication you'll regret, or someone who is all talk and no substance. Think before you speak — and verify before you believe.
