Okay, so today I’m gonna ramble about my experience with the Seven of Swords in tarot readings. Buckle up, it’s gonna be a bumpy ride.
First time I pulled the Seven of Swords, I was doing a reading for a friend who was super stressed about work. I saw the card – dude sneaking away with swords, dodgy look on his face – and I was like, “Uh oh.” I straight up told her, “Someone at your job is probably trying to pull a fast one. Watch your back.”
Turns out, she’d been suspecting her coworker was taking credit for her ideas. After my reading, she started documenting everything, keeping emails, and basically covering her butt. Guess what? A week later, that coworker tried to pass off her project as his own. Because she was ready, she showed the proof, and the boss actually saw through the BS. She didn’t get screwed over, all thanks to the heads up from that tarot reading. That’s when I started to really respect what the Seven of Swords could show.
But it’s not always about other people being sneaky. Sometimes, it’s about me! One time I was asking about a creative project. I pulled the Seven of Swords and at first, I was thinking, “Is someone gonna steal my idea?” Then it hit me. I was cutting corners, trying to rush things. I wasn’t being honest with myself about the work I was putting in. So, I took a step back, redid a bunch of stuff, and ended up with something way better than if I’d tried to sneak through it.
The card isn’t always negative though. I had this one reading where a client was asking about a tricky negotiation. Seven of Swords came up, and I felt like it wasn’t about deception, but about cleverness. I told her, “You might need to be a little strategic, a little bit sneaky, to get what you want in this situation. It’s not about being dishonest, but about knowing how to play the game.” She ended up getting a killer deal, just by being smarter and more adaptable than the other side.
Here’s the thing I’ve learned: the Seven of Swords isn’t always about some big, dramatic betrayal. More often, it’s about little compromises, little white lies, little shortcuts we take, or that others might take.
- It’s about checking yourself and making sure you’re not cutting corners where you shouldn’t.
- It’s about being aware of who might be trying to get away with something.
- And sometimes, it’s about being smart and tactical when you need to be.
So, next time you see that sneaky dude running off with swords, don’t just assume the worst. Dig a little deeper, think about what areas of your life might need a closer look. You might be surprised what you find!
Anyway, that’s my two cents on the Seven of Swords. Hope it helps someone out there navigate their own sneaky situations!
