THE SUIT OF SWORDS

The Swords suit is linked to the mind, intellect, and conflicts or struggles. It corresponds to the element of air. The Ace of Swords might represent a new idea, insight, or decision, and the Ten of Swords could signify the end of a difficult period or the culmination of a mental or intellectual struggle.

 

The court cards (King, Queen, Knight, Page) in each suit represent people, personalities, or stages of development within the realm of the suit. They can represent actual people in the querent's life, aspects of the querent's personality, or situations involving the characteristics of the cards.

Minor Arcana cards generally represent the more mundane aspects of life, the fleeting moments and day-to-day events that contribute to our personal narratives. They provide a more detailed and nuanced perspective in a Tarot reading, especially when it comes to understanding the context of a situation.
