The heart of the matter

The knight of Swords symbolizes charging into battle. Of course, war should always be a last resort. Diplomacy is usually a better option than aggression. Still, when diplomacy fails you should be ready to make a stand.

What is preventing your efforts

The World card represents the end of the journey. As a blockage card, this is an indication that your plans may not go as planned. Not every outcome is a great one. Coming to terms with yourself and your place in the universe, however, can be a reward in itself. Some people have a tendency to put their fate in the hands of a higher power failing to take responsibility for their actions. While a higher power may guide us, ultimately our fate is in our own hands.

What you are trying to achieve

Balancing the scale is what the Justice card is about. This is an indication that your goals must balance different needs. While material wealth is often a goal, it is important to remember that our emotional and social needs are also important. It is important that your goals are fair and just as ultimately you will have to take responsibility for your actions.

Factors you may not be considering

The Six of Pentacles is indicating that your more charitable side is influencing your decision making. Supporting those in need can be a soul-affirming activity. Just make sure that your charity is for the right reasons. Some people use charity as a way of judging those who have fallen upon hard times. Wielding power over those less fortunate than you is not charity. Sometimes the most worthy of people have bad luck so a small bit of help can get them back on their feet. That is the true power of charity.

Influences from the past

Four of Wands may be about celebration and joy, but when it is in the past position the remaining cards in the layout are important in understanding how to interpret the meaning of this card. In negative layouts, it is probably an indication that you are spending too much time celebrating and not enough time actually doing the necessary work to remain successful. In a positive reading, it is a reminder of what you have accomplished to reach your current position.

Factors that may influence the future

The Emperor is the ruler and the one in charge. In the near future this card indicates that you will be trying to take control of your current situation. While this may be necessary, remember that you need to be sensitive to the feelings and needs of other people. A divide and conquer attitude may cause hard feelings that could have a negative impact down the road.

How you are viewing the situation

If you take a look at your situation with the Chariot in mind, your interpretation would either focus on the need for willpower and perseverance or would be about finding the right path. The Chariot views the world as a race where belief in your self will help you find the right path to victory. The thing you have to be careful of is to make sure the cost of winning is not higher than the reward.

How others are viewing you

When others view you as the Devil, they see you as a manipulator. They view you as a puppet-master who is using others in an attempt to quench you thirst for power.

Your current hopes and fears

The fear that the Page of Swords brings is that you are entering into things before you have properly prepared for them. The hope is that what research you have done will be enough and that you are ready for the challenges that lie ahead.

Potential outcome

The Nine of Wands tells you that you are ready to move on. This card is a good sign in a future position as it suggests that you will find a way to solve your problems. While you may still be worried about what is coming, you are ready to defend yourself if the need arises. This card is all about perseverance. If you keep on trying, eventually you will find a way to reach your goal.
