All of the tarot packs that can be obtained show the Ace of Swords with an upright sword and a crown.

When I look at the Ace of Swords in any deck of Tarot it reminds me of a sharp weapon that relates to the human mind, and that a problem or situation surrounding a person has to be cut away before he or she can move on.

New beginnings will always follow in life if the person stops standing and looking at their circumstances and take the time to fight for their new life, whatever it holds.

Metal is well known for being good for its strength; it gives out an impression to others of clarity, justice and positivity.

Tarot cards are clever – they hold the energy of the person who has touched them and give you a pathway of opportunity to make decisions in your life.

However, the Swords suit in a Tarot reading is about focus, opportunities are there but they tell you to go forward with courage, be true to self and not worry about others.

The Ace of Swords is challenging the person to take charge, be honest in your actions and with ethical behaviour that will enhance your life and of your family.

Tarot cards are used as a tool to clear a troubled mind; all of the Tarot cards, when they are read, are always honest with their outlook on your life.

Please note: It is always the recipient’s decision as to whether they have the courage to sort out their problems, it can be a challenge but nothing is impossible.
