Start Today with Guidance and a Glimpse of Possibilities

The Page Of Swords is all about communication and sharing. This card urges you to be open to new ideas and a different way of thinking. Ultimately, this card is about learning and being open enough to be taught new things that can be added to your list of skills. 

The Chariot card shows a commanding, triumphant figure who rides in a carriage being pulled by a pair of sphinxes. This is a powerful card of victory: a victory that has been achieved not by chance, but through sheer force of will and the utmost exercising of control. Note that the charioteer holds no reins, but can direct his carriage where he wishes it to go through his own focus and conscious intention. When The Chariot appears in a spread, it bears an important message about how we can incorporate these elements into our lives.

Unlike the Queen of the suit, the King of Cups is not directly connected to the water: his throne rests upon the waves and an artificial fish, as opposed to a live one, is hung around his neck. The King does not look at his Cup but, instead, holds it with the same grip with which he holds the scepter in his other hand. Here is creativity that has been contained and put to use.

In the King of Wands, we see a figure leaning forward on his throne: he does not seem as solidly planted on his seat as the Queen but, rather, as if he is about to - or very much wanting to - spring up and into action. In this way, he represents the culmination of the suit: the fiery Wands have been directed into successful, often long-term, projects, and yet still burn brightly with passion and great energy.

Discretion and caution are advised with The Seven Of Swords. Someone is up to no good, so be aware because you may be deceived, or are you the deceiver? This card has a trickster quality to it, you need to be careful of who you trust with your secrets. There are ulterior motives at play, so be aware of any manipulation and unethical behavior. This card represents dishonesty, lies, betrayal, and deception, but it will also teach you to be honest with your intentions.

In the Three of Cups, we see three women captured in the moment of raising their Cups high in the air as they come together. They are surrounded by an abundant harvest and the card radiates joy and celebration: specifically, shared happiness and experience.
