Seven of Swords
Upright
Betrayal, deception, getting away with something, acting strategically
The Seven of Swords card symbolizes cheating, deception, and dishonesty. It shows you or a person in your life may be attempting to get away with something and are sneaking around, expecting to stay covered. Be conscious that any time you use deception to gain authority over someone, you are at risk of being exposed. Or the cover-up will need a huge effort, and it may not be deserving of it.
Alternatively, you may be the sufferer of someone else’s fraud. Others are not being honest with you, and you may be uninformed of their lies. You may believe someone who then turns out to be leaving you high and dry. Look out for any tricky behavior and listen to your feelings when something does not seem right or looks too good to be true.
On a more positive tone, the Seven of Swords shows that you need to be more strategic. You must prioritize what’s essential to you and start with the small tasks that will move you close to your aim.
The Seven of Swords also implies that you may need to use shortcuts or alternative ways to get to your wishes. Rather than following the whole process, you may need to find shorter ways to solve your obstacle.
Sometimes the Seven of Swords advises that you need to put yourself first to get what you need. You can’t always be everything to people, and sometimes you need to put your own priorities first, even if others may not agree with you.
The Seven of Swords could also indicate that you are trying to escape from a place that is not serving you anymore rather than dealing with it. You may try to run away from responsibility, hard work or a promise. You may be procrastinating, letting problems become more critical.
Reversed
Imposter syndrome, self-deceit, keeping secrets
The Seven of Swords card often show up reversed when you feel like a fraud. You may doubt yourself. Know that this is fear talking. Get out of your head and trust that you are strong enough to make your new venture a success.
Similarly, the reversed Seven of Swords can hint that you are deceiving yourself, trying to fool yourself into accepting something even though it is out of sincerity with your true self. For example, you may try to deceive yourself that everything is okay when it is not.
As a card of secret trick, the reversed Seven of Swords signifies keeping secrets hidden from other people. You may be defending a dark secret that you believe will never be exposed. Maintaining this secret may bring you tension, along with more intense feelings of blame and shame. While the idea of declaring may be horrifying, it will free you from the bad emotions you are feeling.
If you are involved in a third-party relationship situation, the reversed Seven of Swords displays an increasing hesitation to keep up the deception. You or your partner may feel more upset with this connection and would much rather open up it.
