The Queen of Swords

Today's Card: Queen of Swords

This queen sits strong upon her throne, wielding a very sharp blade. Beware the double-edged sword in this card. This queen has a dogged determination to meet her goals and have what she wants. The positive to this is that she has great energy and she devotes herself completely, not giving up. The downside is sometimes she fights so hard to get what she wants, only to later discover it was not in her best interests at all. After all was said and done this Queen wasted a lot of energy that could have been put to a more beneficial use.

Perhaps she should be more willing to flow with circumstances, allowing her higher wisdom to lead. This card reminds us that when something doesn't feel right, no matter how much we feel we want it, it's better to "let go and let God" freeing us to direct that energy into constructive channels.

Use the determination and strength of will represented in this card to work for the higher good. Queens always represent a dynamic spiritual force that allows us to really accomplish things we may not have thought possible. Push your limits today while working on things that benefit everyone's greater good. Not a time to purely focus on self-interest, bigger thing are at stake.

This Queen is also a card of leadership/empowerment. Work to cut away all that holds you back or is not good for you.
