Faith, Spirituality Or Psychic Progression:

Even if you have suddenly found the spiritual answers that you’ve been looking for your whole life, remember that they are your answers and not everyone else’s. You don’t need to convert anyone else to your way of thinking. The Five of Swords can also indicate a sudden break from spirituality that no longer works for you. Give yourself time and space to find new answers, if that’s the case.

When the Five of Swords appears, you are likely to find yourself with some mixed feelings about life in general and about a few people in particular. Don’t ignore these, but don’t feel like you have to speak every word you’re thinking and feeling either, as you could ruin the very things that you want the most – such as close, intimate relationships with your friends and lover. Think several times before you really let someone have it even if they deserve it. Pick your battles.

Book Details
Portable Magic: When you think of the Tarot, you probably think of fortune telling. This is not surprising since divination has been the main function of Tarot cards for more than two hundred years. Only in the late eighteenth century did the symbolism on the cards acquire a higher spiritual meaning and come to be regarded as an important part of the Western esoteric tradition. In spite of its elevation from the mundane to the mysterious, the primary use for the Tarot remains fortune telling even in the present day. If you examine the books available on the Tarot, most are about divination, with only a handful devoted to the higher meaning of Tarot symbolism.

Reversed Cards: In the retrograde aspect of the Five of Swords, we see Venus, the planet of love, struggle with the rebellious nature of Aquarius. Venus wants everyone to get along. The problem is Aquarius believes they are the only one that knows how that should be. Can you remember a time in your past when you thought you were the only one with a real solution? Think back to the last time you tried to tell someone how they should experience the world around them, or perhaps the last time someone told that to you. It more than likely didn’t work out well, and it won’t work this time either.

Portable Magic: Among the trumps that provide the structure for rituals of Tarot magic, there is a group that is naturally best suited to create the triangle: the three elemental trumps of the Mother letters of the Hebrew alphabet. In the cosmological model upon which the Tarot correspondences of the Golden Dawn are based, the higher elements, Fire, Air, and Water, lie in bands between the sphere of the fixed Earth and the higher moving spheres of the heavens. They partake of both earthly and heavenly qualities. They are above the surface of the earthly sphere, yet they have lower, earthly counterparts that function within the sphere of Earth. Hence they are ideally suited to create a bridge between the potential and the actual, and for forming the symbolic tool that causes the ideal to be made real.

Complete Book of Tarot: In understanding the court cards, Jung’s ideas about the four functions are especially helpful. Each suit excels at one of these four functions, as does each type of court card. Kings are airy thinking types, Queens are watery feeling types, Knights are fiery intuitive types, and Pages are earthy sensation types.
