Suit: Swords
Words: Ego, manipulative, statistics, invalid conclusions.
Description: Reversed, the Swords are about the darker aspects associated with the mind that lead to more inharmonious situations when dealing with the thought processes, communications and logical thinking. These activities tend to break down rather than build things up. Thought processes may loop or become more obsessive. Logic may break down or the thinking process could draw irrational conclusions. There is a strong sense of ego which may create a point of view that is more self-centered. Facts and figures may be exploited to manipulate others into believing your point of view rather than what’s the actual truth. Experiences or memories may be recalled differently than what others remember. Reality tends to be skewed to fit your imagination rather than simply being what it is.
