Seven of Swords

Air · Swords

On the card

A figure carries five swords away from a camp on tiptoe, glancing back at two left standing.

Upright

Stealth
Going alone
Getting away with it

Traditionally cunning, and just as traditionally the cost of it — two swords are left behind. It asks what you are handling on your own and why.

Reversed

Found out
Coming clean
Self-deceit

Reversed, the strategy fails or is set down: exposure, confession, or the recognition that the person being fooled is nearer than expected.

About this deck

The artwork is the Rider-Waite-Smith tarot, drawn by Pamela Colman Smith to Arthur Edward Waite's direction and first published in 1909. It has passed into the public domain, which is why it can be shown here in full — but it is her work, and the reason this deck became the one nearly every other deck answers to.
