King of Swords

Positive decision-making, absolute rationality, wisdom, strategy, authority, organization and planning.

The King of Swords sits on his throne, facing forward, as if ready at any moment to face whatever life throws at him. He holds a sword in his right hand, with consciousness and rational thought in his grasp. This symbolizes the king’s decisiveness and also his flexibility in all matters; although his decisions are mainly based on his own wisdom, he remains open to opinions. The king wears a blue robe, symbolizing a longing for spiritual knowledge, and a purple cloak, symbolizing his compassion and wisdom. Behind his throne are decorations with a butterfly (transformation), a crescent moon, and an angel near his left ear, as if giving him subtle guidance.
