Meaning of the Ace of Swords in a Reading

All Aces in all suits of the Tarot Cards indicate a new beginning in some area of life. The Aces can talk about starting a new journey, whether it is a relationship, a new job or even a fresh way of seeing things. When we get lots of Ace cards in our bigger readings, such as the Celtic Cross Spread, then we may be facing many new beginnings and fresh starts. These are usually rather positive in nature.

The Suit of Swords is the element of air and therefore represents the mind, talking, ideas, thinking, and communication. It can be a tough suit to work with as air tends to be evasive and at times hard to understand. Hence this suit is seen as the most difficult when it comes to doing tarot readings of any kind.

The new beginning that the Ace of Swords, therefore, talks about is a beginning associated with our mindsets. This card can represent a fresh way of seeing things and learning to communicate clearly, even if the truth hurts – most especially when it comes to our closest love relationships and ties to other important people.

When we get the Ace of Swords reversed, then we may feel extremely cloudy, murky, or mentally confused. Things are less clear than we are hoping for, and we may need to bide our time before we act or say something we may regret.

This may not be the time to apply ourselves to a new mental project, whether it’s a personal passion or doing something with someone we love and care about. We may struggle at this time to express new ideas and need to take some more time for reflection as our judgment is not as clear as usual.
