Page of Swords upright
The Page brings a message, or a question that won't leave you alone. Young in spirit and quick, and prone to saying the true thing before checking whether anyone wanted to hear it. News might be on its way that changes what you know. Stay curious, and check it before you repeat it.
Page of Swords reversed
Reversed, the words come out before the thinking does, or there's gossip moving around the situation. Lots of ideas, not much landing. Slow down enough to finish one thought.
In love
Someone is asking a lot of questions about you, or getting in touch out of nowhere. I'm seeing new interest with a sharp edge, honest but not deep yet.
In work and money
A new idea, or news that changes the plan. Do your homework before you put money behind it.
As advice
Stay curious and check what you hear before you repeat it. Do your homework before you put money behind a new idea.
Yes or no?
Maybe, since news or more information is on its way that may change what you know. A single card shows a lean, never a promise of how things turn out.
For yourself
You're learning to say what you actually think, and it comes out clumsy at first. That's fine, it gets smoother the more you do it.
