Knight of Swords

AmbitionDriveFast Thinking

The Knight of Swords rushes forward with conviction and fast thinking. Use that drive, but make sure you’re not cutting others off on the way.

Upright

The Knight of Swords charges at full speed, sword raised, his horse stretched out in a gallop, trees bending in the wind and clouds torn behind him. Upright, he brings ambition, drive and fast action. When you know what you want, he says go after it directly, without hesitation. He’s brilliant at cutting through obstacles. The risk is moving so fast that you trample people or details on the way.

Reversed

Love

Career and money

At work, the Knight of Swords favours bold, decisive action and pushing a goal forward quickly. Reversed, impulsive decisions or conflict with colleagues may cause setbacks.
