The Five of Swords Tarot Card Meaning

If you have received the Five of Swords in your reading, then you are experiencing evidence at this time that you are having a hard time communicating your ideas to others.

This is the card that is known for ‘writing stories’ in your head that don’t really exist in real life. Really what is happening is you are feeling self-conscious, and you have come up with reasons in your mind to believe that others are out to get you. This is also the card of a pointless battle, one that could have easily been sorted out by communication and understanding, as well as listening to the actual words of those around you instead of guessing or thinking that you know what they are trying to say. Right now, it is becoming difficult to make decisions because you have yourself so tangled in what someone ‘might’ think, when in reality, what they ‘might’ think is none of your business. Anything that is not vocally communicated is painstaking and speculative and is an unhealthy waste of your time.

The image of the 5 of Swords in the deck is depicted with a person who has captured the swords of his adversaries who are leaving, rejected and lost. There are storm clouds in the background. This card shows that you might be the conqueror or the conquered. But neither position has actually won. This battle was pointless, it was unfair and it was full of cowardliness. Basically, this is not one of the higher points of your life. Your inner feelings of inadequacy are weighing down on you heavily and whether you succeeded or lost, you have an unshakable sense of humiliation. Now you must rely even more heavily than normal on your inner voice because others are definitely going to have something negative to say about you. Consider how your thoughts are influencing your daily life. As spiritual creatures, we know that what we think is what we create, so if you are spending most of your time focusing on what someone is thinking or saying about you then how much of this is being created by your own internal machinations?

What you must do at this time is attempt to trust and that you have the wisdom to move passed this unsavory time of your life. Push through the fears that you have created in your mind and fill it up instead with the successes that you wish to accomplish as well as the joys that surround you on a daily level. You must allow yourself to see all of the possibilities all around you instead of coming up with reasons why nothing is going to help you. Cut out all forms of negative thinking and affirm the visualizations that bring you happiness. Trying to make others believe that you are right is not going to help you or change anyone’s mind. You are missing the point, that to have happiness, you must remove all possibilities that exist in your mind that believes that anyone else can make your life right or wrong for you. You are the only person in this equation who actually matters. Ask for spiritual strength to bring you guidance. Your most painstaking dilemma at this time is discovering how to keep the order and discipline in your life as your foundation while also making changes to better your circumstances. Meditate on this and know that your stability is inside of you, you cannot find it anywhere else.

The Five of Swords in Love

When the Five of Swords becomes present in a reading about love or relationships, you are stuck in a cycle of fighting needlessly to get your point across. This is symbolic for those in relationships who spend more time fighting then loving, and in a single person’s life this is representative of unwillingness to learn from past mistakes. You spend so much time worrying about what others think or feel about you that you never get anything done. You must push past this phase for it is a phase that keeps you uninvolved as well as unhappy. The point in love is for you and someone else to be able to express themselves ultimately as equals in the relationship. If you are focusing more on their faults, or they are focusing more on what your faults then neither of you is being productive. You must consider now whether it is worth it to keep fighting in this manner. Right now no one is winning.

The Five of Swords in Health

In Health, the Five of Swords is telling you that you are worrying way too much about the potential of health hazards and diseases. This level of over-worrying is making it impossible for you to experience all that life has to offer. Perhaps you are afraid of letting this go, because you might hurt or injure yourself. But remember: Life is for living, not for staying indoors preoccupying yourself with what MIGHT happen should you go outside. You need to get outside, strengthen your muscles both physically and mentally. Doing so will create a sense of health and wellness that you have only dreamed of.

The Five of Swords in Work and Wealth

The Five of Swords in your Work life is representative of interoffice drama. Currently you are stuck in the little tiny world of your coworkers and there is a negative energy around you that is feeding on itself by promoting gossip and lack of productivity. There is a whole world outside of this small microcosm. Now is the time to break out of this unhealthy routine and push for new experiences that are enlivened with the breath of non-dramatic fun.

The Five Of Swords Reversed

Reversed Meaning - Five Of Swords

When you have received the Five of Swords in the reversed position you are experiencing despair and defeat. Do you see how your mind perpetuates pessimism and doubt? You are stuck in a cycle of believing that nothing good is ever going to happen for you. Therefore you are fighting yourself constantly and losing. The change necessary here does not happen overnight, but it is time for you to let go of what is inhibiting you. Your attachment to ego is overdeveloped and you are becoming passive aggressive due to current situations emulating old ones. You are recreating a history now in which you may be hurt again, specifically because you never let the old go to begin with. You must confront the fear of the old, learn from it and heal or you will continue to perpetuate the same issues over and over again in a never ending cycle of misery.

The Queen of Pentacles Tarot Card Meaning

The Queen of Pentacles represents all things fertile, abundant, green, and wise. If you pulled this card then your life is about to change for the better, it is a postiive card. In my tarot decks in both the Moondust and Flora the women is strong but more importantly she connects to material and spiritual wealth. If you asked a question then this card is a clear yes.

You will see in my moonchild deck she is holding the purse and this means she has everything she needs in that money bag, this is going to be you in the future. In my Flora deck she is surrounded by wealth and money. So, this is really what this card means - you will be surrounded by money going forward.

Whenever you are going through a phase in which your finances or your home life are not what they should be, you should call upon the energies of the Queen of Pentacles to assist you. Now, if the Queen is appearing in your reading, you will experience a level of abundant support like no other time in your life. Here all of the hard work that you have invested, tilling and sowing your metaphorical fields, is paying off and you will get what you deserve. This is something to consider throughout your life, the more work you put in the more likely you are to get something wonderful in return should you choose to allow yourself.

The Queen of Pentacles is a woman generous with her gifts. She is a rich and noble soul who is compassionate and charitable, for she has more than she could ever want or need. The cycle of abundance is one that perpetuates itself. You give more to receive more. This may be difficult for you to consider if you are going through a phase of poverty, where you fear where your next meal is going to come from or you are drowning in bills – or both! But the Queen of Pentacles tells you that it is possible to be free of your shackles if you would only allow yourself to give in order to receive. If you do not have money, then give of your time, of your effort. The more that you give, the more you are telling the Universe you have and so you will only attract more and more.

The Queen is masterful in building new worlds for herself by nurturing all of the creative centers in life. She is a talented person who is family oriented, of course, being that she is the Queen of the Home and Hearth. She has the wise sense of business around her and is not afraid of hard work, much like the Knight of Pentacles. The benefits of hard work consistently bear fruit. She sometimes can be non-responsive at times, despite her charitable nature as can you, but over all she is capable of being very happy at work or at home. She has a greatness of spirit that is unquenchable.

The Queen of Pentacles in Love

When the Queen of Pentacles appears for you in a reading of love or relationships, you should expect now is a good time to get yourself into a very solid and good, as well as healthy relationship. You have put your time and effort into improving yourself now, and you are feeling comfortable, confident and ready to really put yourself out there. If you are already in a relationship, then this is a time that is going to be very fruitful for you. Do not be surprised if there is a pregnancy or birth of a child, or a time of new events that bring you and your partner great joy. If you are searching for love, know that now is the time for you to be picky, to find the person that exemplifies who you are. Do not waste time on those that you know are not available emotionally or physically because the Queen will allow you to find a long lasting mate.

The Queen of Pentacles in Health

The Queen of Pentacles is representative of the home and the hearth, therefore, if you are feeling health concerns of the spirit, in which you find yourself depressed consistently, and then you must take some time improving the conditions of your home. Clean up the areas that haven’t been cleaned for a while, rearrange even. If you are the type who keeps a good house, then do a house cleansing. The new energy of your home will help you develop a new sense of joy in the mind.

The Queen of Pentacles in Work and Wealth

Now is the time for you to be blessed with a financial abundance that you never thought possible. Even more so than what the Knight of Pentacles has to offer, the Queen tells you that whatever you want will be. All you have to do is remember that it is possible. Your thoughts create your life, pick the good ones.

The image of the Queen of Pentacles in the Rider Waite deck depicts a queen who is comfortably relaxing on her throne with carved heads of goat adorning the arms, behind her there is the abundance of ripe fruit and cupid is at her back. All of these symbols represent abundance in their varying forms. The goat is representative of the harvest of milk to make cheese, the fruit is representative of the abundance of the harvest and the cupid is representative of love in its most enriched period of life. The Queen is surrounded by green fields and there is a rabbit of fertility sitting at her side nearby.

Above her hangs a vine of red roses symbolizing the power she has over her desires. She remains quietly contemplating a pentacle that she holds in her lap. This card is most commonly represented by a woman with black hair and eyes. You are a dependable person, resourceful and you have good instincts and some would say that you are a natural leader. This card is representative of mother and of the provider. You are a channel for practical information.

The queen of pentacles Reversed

Reversed Meaning - Queen Of Pentacles

You must accept the fact at this time that you require nurturing relationships in life and get rid of those that are not otherwise you are going to go through a phase where you won’t be able to trust anyone and that is counterproductive to where you need to be right now in your life. When the Queen of Pentacles reversed presents itself, it means that you have the potential to have all that you desire, and getting caught up in the neglectful laziness of those surrounding you will get you nowhere. You will only become nervous and confused. The reversed position of this card points out that right now you are already in the cycle of being mistrustful of others and so you must nip the cycle in the bud before it gets any worse. Trust that you know what to do, and focus all of your energies on the beautiful, healthy energies of the Queen.

The King Of Swords Tarot Card Reading

The King of Swords is not one to be trifled with as he shows great energy around you at this time.

When this card comes up you are on top of your game mentally speaking and it’s a great card revealing high intellect, focus, and determination on one or more aspects of your life. When you feel his energy around you it is an excellent time to puff out your chest just a little bit and be proud of the accomplishments that you have made.

The King of Swords is a master of clarity and vision. Like the King, you are in a place in your life in which you have a laser sight of focus on your path and you know what you want. More importantly, you know HOW to get what you want. This card showing up in your reading indicates that there is a definite possibility for expansion in your life and all you have to do articulate your desires to have them come to fruition.

The King of Swords is a highly intelligent figure and while it doesn’t indicate that you are a rocket scientist just because you have the card, it does show that you have information, knowledge, and know-how to bring to the table. It can be a grand card regarding finance or aspects of your life where information is important. The challenge of the card is coming off in a way in which people can relate to you. You have information that you want to share and ideas that are bubbling to the surface. The solutions that you are finding that are coming to you right now are excellent ones and you need to trust in your own insight. However, when conveying information to others you want to be sure that you are not coming off in a way that will turn them off.

If you find that you are having difficulties in communications at this time then you may want to ponder ways in which you are overanalyzing or making your life too complicated. The King of Swords is quick and precise. You need to use this energy to your advantage in order to cut to the root of your problems and then apply your magnificent problem-solving skills.

The King of Swords in Love

The King of Swords can definitely represent a man in your life either currently (as in a relationship) or someone that is coming your way. With the King of Swords, this individual will be older than you either in actual age or worldly experience. He often is one with lighter features such as blue or green eyes and blonde or whitish hair. This isn’t always the case, but it can be a strong indicator. When representing a person specifically it will show someone whom you share ideas and thoughts with, someone whom you are challenged intellectually, and someone that is quick-witted. He is a very intriguing person indeed!

The card does not always reflect a man specifically and this is important to remember. The card, when more focused on you in the relationship will indicate that you are connected in your relationship both intellectually and spiritually. Your relationship is one that broadens your spiritual horizons and makes you think. It’s a healthy and ever-changing relationship… or at least it should be.

If you find that you are in a poor relationship and there is stagnation, the King of Swords asks you in what ways are you allowing your boundaries to be encroached upon in the relationship. Sometimes this card will come up as a warning as a man that is overbearing (be it your partner if you are female, or yourself if you are male) and that can be too analytical for a relationship. The behaviors that are negative in love associated with this card are ones that can be worked on through honest communication and avoiding being too emotional.

The King of Swords in Health

The King of Swords in Health is an excellent card indicating overall physical well-being – however, it can be a difficult card in the mental health department. Consider ways in which you are too anxious and be honest with the true feelings that you are feeling now. Often when the King of Swords is present anxiety, racing thoughts, or issues of worry in excess is a problem. This card acts as a reminder to not forget your mental health when you are thinking about your wellness in life. Take time to relax and to focus on your problems. Avoid stressful situations that are causing you undue stress or strife at this time. The card can also indicate a need to practice ways to slow your mind down such as in meditation or medication.

The King of Swords in Work and Wealth

The King of Swords can often be a person who is too nit-picky, especially in the workplace. Think of an overbearing boss or a person (man or woman for that matter) that are causing problems and making your life difficult. Sometimes it’s just a person doing their job, but often it’s deeper than that. There is a challenge represented by this persona with work issues that can be difficult to deal with. Unfortunately, when the King of Swords is present you usually don’t have a choice. It’s okay to voice your concerns, however, avoid doing so forcefully and remember to apply the appropriate tact for the workplace. Going over this person’s head is likely to backfire on you.

In finances, the King of Swords can indicate an educated person with their moment or one that needs to be educated about their money. It is very dependent on what cards are also in the reading and it is best to seek them as an additional resource as to what representation the King of Swords holds for you. No matter, it is still a positive card for growth and expansion endeavors such as a large purchase or single investment.

The King of Swords in Business

The king of swords for wealth indicates you need to be logical. If you are wondering about your income in the future pulling him in a reading can mean you want to plan. This card can indicate you need to work through intellect and this is the path to riches. I also believe that in business he is cold it can mean letting employees go, or cutting things out in order to save finances.

The Kind of Swords in the Reversed Position

The Fool Reversed

Reversed Meaning - King Of Swords

At best, the reversed King of Swords card represents a person out of control in their thoughts… but at worst the card can indicate some serious mental health problems. The reversed position of this card can be a dangerous one indeed and when it is seen in a reading it is always best to ask for further clarification of the card. If the card is focused on you then it is a good time and probably a requirement for your own sanity to focus on you right now. Usually it comes up when problems are swirling out of control and you are or are dealing with a person that is losing touch with reality. This can be due to issues or stress or simply from intellectual creativity. No matter what the reason you want to be careful of this person because they can be unaware of consequences of their actions. Often the card is associated with increased manic states, flakiness, and instability in multiple aspects of life such as in the case where a person is so preoccupied that they allow necessary aspects of their life fail like work, relationships, or basic needs. The person affected by this card often needs to seek professional help by a counselor, spiritual guide, or close friend/relative to get perspective and get their life back on track.
