Page of Swords

An alert young person (male or female) finely dressed and bearing a Sword, who is about to make an announcement. Swords are associated with the element of Air. This is why birds appear in all the Court cards for the suit. Birds, like Swords, represent the start of an action. Storm clouds and wind appear in the background, and the youth stands on rough terrain.

Pages represent news. A new perspective and a new way of doing things are approaching. The focus is on unexpected events in love and relationships, messages, motions, growth, and ideas. If you are hearing negativity, don't believe it. Joy will replace pessimism, so don't give up. Your search will have a successful conclusion, and everything will turn out just fine.

As with all Court cards, it is also possible for a Page to represent a person. The astrological sign for the Page of Swords is Taurus. A person with traits of diplomacy, practicality and understanding maybe indicated. Other adjectives to describe this person might be: sensual, realistic, possessive, persevering, thoughtful, down-to-earth, and security-minded. This Page may represent the vocations of: sales, singing, negotiations, leasing, consulting, serving, or finance.
