7 of Swords
Seven of Swords
Upright
deception · strategy · stealth · avoidance · acting alone
A figure steals away with swords under cover of darkness. The Seven of Swords involves hidden agendas, strategic maneuvering, or the avoidance of direct confrontation. This can be clever self-preservation or genuine dishonesty — examine which is at play, and from which direction.
Reversed
confession · coming clean · exposure · abandoning strategy
What was hidden is being brought into the open. A deception is uncovered, a secret is confessed, or you are abandoning a strategy that required you to be less than honest. The cost of the concealment has exceeded the benefit.
