Page of Swords

Upright meaning

The Page of Swords is air's youngest, most alert expression. Curiosity, observation, questioning intelligence. Classical image: the young figure with cape blown by wind, holding sword upright — eyes watching everything. When this card arrives: the mind is hunting new information, ready to ask, verbally on alert. The energy of a young journalist, researcher, critic, beginning lawyer. Learns fast, questions fast. Risk: the tongue is sharp but inexperienced; cutting words can wound.

Reversed meaning

Reversed: uncontrolled tongue, gossip, unnecessary skepticism. Or a frozen mind — Page who has given up asking.
