Career, Work Or Retirement:
In the context of work, The reversed Ace can mean that you are close to having a major misunderstanding about work. Don’t make any sudden moves, and don’t decide that a job which has been good for you for many years has suddenly gone bad. If you are looking for work, try to think from the hiring person’s perspective. If you are attempting to change careers, how can you show that you are prepared for this new career? Be practical and realistic now, and think things through carefully.
Card Meanings: Insults, Intellectual Inability, Tyranny, Obstacles, Hostility, Inability To Concentrate, Power, Creative Blocks, Destruction, Confusion, Misinformation, Memory Loss, Arguments, Injustice, Lack Of Assertiveness, Making The Wrong Decision, Lack Of Ideas, Failure, Hate Triumphing Over Love, Frustration, Lack Of Communication
The Ace of Swords can indicate a new beginning of some sort in your life, possibly on several fronts. Sometimes this new beginning can be started by a separation of some kind – from a relationship, or from a job situation. Know that as anxiety-producing as such a new beginning can sometimes be, that underneath it all is good, beneficial energy that is getting you where you want to go.

Reversed Cards: Have you ever just wanted to tell someone how stupid they were? I mean, like, really let them have it because you just cant take it anymore? Or maybe you have been on the receiving end of someone else who is always trying to undermine you or make you feel mentally inadequate. Either way, you are walking in the shadow aspect of the Ace of Swords. The Ace of Swords has a bit of an air about it, no pun intended. It does feel somewhat self-righteous, sort of higher-than or more actualized than other mere mortals. The problem is this is ego-based thinking, and the ego loves the shadow lands of the mind. When this card shows up in a reading or daily draw, just remember that here in the shadow aspect there is a level of accountability that needs to be adhered to so that no harm comes to you or others.
Tarot Triumphs: Or did gypsies play a part, as some conjecture? This is less likely, much as it appeals to many Tarot aficionados, myself included. Romany gypsies are now known to have left India about fifteen hundred years ago, a date rather early to have brought Tarot imagery with them.13 The images overall have an early medieval to Renaissance feel about them, injected with some strong classical associations. There are no overt Eastern allusions, and Tarot is generally considered to be a European invention, so an Indian origin seems unlikely. It seems more likely to me that the Tarot Triumphs emerged out of a more deliberate attempt to weld a set of images together by people with better access to books and manuscripts than gypsies were likely to have. The gypsies would have been on the move and lacking in formal education. But perhaps gypsy fortune-telling, as the Roma moved around Europe, played a part in the transmission. There is an element of learning to the Triumphs, an infusion of Christian imagery and also of more pagan beliefs, something that could have emerged from several centuries of evolution as images were picked up from diverse sources and gradually blended into a complete sequence for fortune-telling, imbued with folk wisdom; after all, wisdom itself is not the exclusive property of the educated classes.

Reversed Cards: Here in the mirror aspect of the World card, we are being asked to take a good look at how we see ourselves in the world and how we see the world inside of ourselves. The energy of the three is always reminding us that the world we experience is the one we create. We create that world first inside of us and then experience ourselves in its physical manifestation. The mirror aspect of the card reminds us that no matter where we go or what we do, the world is always with us, in us, and around us. So what does your world look like? When this card shows up in a reading or daily draw, you are being made aware of how things currently are. Not how they were or how they could be, just how they are right now. Use the data and create better conditions in your inner world if you wish to experience them in your outer world. It really is that easy. Victory is up for the taking; just align your world to it.
