ok so I've been going back and forth about whether to confront a friend about something that's been bothering me for months. finally sat down and asked for clarity and pulled knight of swords reversed as the advice card.
like... the knight of swords upright I get - charge forward, say what needs to be said. but REVERSED?? does that mean slow down and don't say anything? or is it still telling me to speak up but just... differently?
idk I feel like I'm more confused now than before I did the reading lol. has anyone gotten this as advice and figured out what to do with it?
Oh this is such a nuanced card to get in the advice position! The cards whisper something interesting here...
Knight of Swords reversed as advice usually isn't telling you to stay silent - it's asking you to reconsider HOW you speak up. The upright knight charges in without thinking. Reversed, the wisdom is: yes, have the conversation, but choose your words carefully. Pause before you react. Lead with your feelings rather than accusations.
Ask yourself: what outcome do you actually want? The reversed knight is saying slow your roll, not stop altogether. Trust your inner knowing on the timing.
i got this exact card as advice once when i was debating quitting my job and said the same thing to myself lol
for me I ended up waiting a couple weeks before saying anything and the conversation went SO much better than if I'd done it in the moment
reversed sword cards in the advice position always feel like a warning about communication style to me. like not WHAT you say but HOW
you should still say something tho!! months is a long time to sit on something
omg the "slow your roll, not stop" framing is exactly what I needed to hear. I ended up writing out what I wanted to say first so I could actually organize my thoughts before talking to her. the conversation was uncomfortable but we worked through it. so glad I did it
