On a day ruled by the Prince of Swords it will be our inner world we need to direct our attention towards. We need to study our thoughts, and allow them the time to extend. Too often a thought crosses our mind and we are unable to give that thought the room to grow and develop until it achieves its maximum potential – and because this happens very often we fail to live up to ourselves too. So try to set time aside for quiet inner contemplation when the Prince of Swords is having an influence. Think about your own opinions on given topics not necessarily personal ones .but more general issues as well. You know, often we fail to converse with ourselves even to the extent that we converse with our acquaintances. We take for granted what we think and what we know even though our opinions may not have been revised in years. As constantly growing individuals, our opinions certainly will change on some subjects .and if we dont give ourselves the time to check them out every now and again, we can become alienated from our own development. This can lead to all kinds of problems – see the 8,9 and 10 of Swords for examples of this.
Ask yourself questions like .whats your favourite food? When did you last eat it? Which was your happiest holiday so far? Why? Whats your current favourite garment in your wardrobe? Why? What happy memories do you have of the last week? Whats the best thing that happened this year so far? In having this conversation with yourself, you will almost certainly come across things that you had not placed much importance on before .and these things will have slid into your subconscious mind ..from where they could later surface unexpectedly. Get to know yourself and then stay in close contact .youre the very best friend you could ever have make friends with yourself!!

Reversed Cards: The suit of swords is all mental, and by that I mean it very much lives inside your head. What goes on inside your head creates the landscape you navigate in the outside world, and here in the shadow aspect, you have created your monsters well. Negative, stress-filled, fear-based thoughts are the perfect fertilizer for demons and monsters. These thoughts can make you paranoid, delusional, and irrational, even if you dont mean them to be. Right now your Knight of Swords is dueling with the monsters inside your head. To make him stop you will need to start thinking differently.
Tarot Triumphs: My acquaintance with the Tarot began in 1968. I was nineteen years old, a student at the University of Cambridge in the United Kingdom, and I had come to America for the summer vacation. Several of us had flown in for a three-month idyll of free rock concerts and hanging out in the sunshine. But it was the year after the Summer of Love, and the culture that had seemed so innocent then now began to take on a more sinister tone, with riots in Chicago and bad LSD trips beginning to take their toll on the flower power generation. I soon realized too that our student habits of wearing long hair and vintage clothing, considered harmless British eccentricities at home, antagonized the more conventional side of American society. I thought I was streetwise after teenage years in Birmingham and a year of counterculture in Cambridge, but it was a rude awakening. We had tear gas thrown at us on the streets of Berkeley, and we were hauled off to the police station for fingerprinting in Reno. Then, in Mexico, I was involved in a terrifying car accident in which I thought I was going to die. I had only minor injuries, but the experience was a profound shock that changed my way of thinking forever. I could not go on just drifting along on the stream; I needed to address the big questions of what life is about.

Reversed Cards: Here in the reflective side of the strength card, you get the opportunity to see exactly what sort of strength is being called into question here. Is it mental, physical, spiritual, or emotional? True fortitude means knowing we can withstand anything that comes our way. It may not be easy, but it wont break us or drag us off our path. So as you gaze into the mirror aspect of this card, think about where you dont feel this sort of fortitude. Really be honest and identify which areas of your life have you distracted and feeling out of control. Truly explore who and what brings you to anger quickly and discover the triggers that pull you off task day after day. This aspect of the Strength card really is about observing. Watch yourself and how you interact with the people, places, and things in your life through the lens of fortitude. Think about using it as a journal exercise to open a dialogue between yourself and your courageous inner warrior.
