61-Knight of Dynamism – Upright Mage Deck

Your Chosen Card – Knight of Dynamism Upright Mage Deck

Knights correspond to the element Fire, which suggests action, enterprise, movement, novelty, and challenge coming into your life. When upright, the Knight of Swords prompts you to take decisive action to defend your rights and protect whatever you hold dear. This clever and assertive knight makes a good ally and a formidable opponent. Like the protagonist of Shakespeare’s Henry V (1598), the Knight of Swords rallies you with the words: ‘Once more unto the breach, dear friends, once more.’ He readily connects the dots and is able to cut to the chase in any situation. His arrival is sometimes accompanied by the passing of misfortune. In many ways the Knight of Swords resembles Sir Galahad of Alfred Lord Tennyson’s 1834 poem of the same name:

Keywords Upright: Assertive, brave, swift, virile, forceful, eager, courageous, decisive, righteous, formidable, industrious, alert, strategic, clever with words, analytical, discerning, skillful; quick action, debate, strategy, clarity of mind, a sharp intellect, a rush to get things done, making drastic changes, defending one’s rights, charging into battle, cutting away what no longer serves a purpose, adopting a new perspective.

Decans/Timing: 20 Taurus to 20 Gemini. Tropical, 11 May–10 June. Sidereal, 04 June–06 July.
Astrology: Fire of Air.
Associated Trumps: The High Priest and the Lovers.

Rider Waite: He is riding in full course, as if scattering his enemies. In the design he is really a prototypical hero of romantic chivalry. He might almost be Galahad, whose sword is swift and sure because he is clean of heart. Divinatory Meanings: A hero of romantic chivalry scattering his enemies, skill, bravery, capacity, defense, address, enmity, wrath, war, destruction, opposition, resistance, ruin. There is therefore a sense in which the card signifies death, but it carries this meaning only in its proximity to other cards of fatality; (R) imprudence, incapacity, extravagance.

When Knight of Dynamism is upright you can pretty much take it that life is going well but that’s when life takes us by surprise.  If Knight of Dynamism is unclear it may help to choose a card from the Major Arcana to provide more insight into what it is Knight of Dynamism is trying to tell you.  If you had a particular issue in  mind, or want to seek clarification on something else, you can also choose again to get more guidance.
