Seven of Swords
Directed will in the discerning mind
The card
Here in the Seven of Swords, the mind fully pierces the dark comfort of a daydream and begins to reach into the earthly realm. Ideas move from black and white sketches on paper to three-dimensional objects. The swords themselves appear to flower with expression. Once obscure daydreams take shape into something tangible for the benefit of others. This is no longer an intellectual pursuit, but an opened gift appreciated by the world.
This card ultimately reveals how the mind shapes matter and insinuates the need to not abuse its power.
Which ideal is directing your energy through thought, language, conflict, and decision?

The archetype in motion
Psychic energy gathers behind a chosen direction and tests the ideals driving it. Here it moves through thought, language, conflict, and decision. Its gift becomes available when the reader can hold both its conscious expression and the less comfortable possibility carried in its shadow.
