The Seven of Swords Tarot Meaning
The Seven of Swords tarot meanings are traditionally associated with ideas around betrayal and lies. However, if you factor in the spiritual associations with the number seven, these meanings seem to feel a little off and untrue.
With the Seven of Swords, we’re dealing with the link between logic and intellect and philosophy and feeling. All the sevens in the tarot speak to who we are at our core and how we channel these into our everyday lives.
With that in mind, the Seven of Swords starts to speak to our inner voice and conscience. It refers to our understanding of what is morally right and wrong and what we choose to do with that information. The traditional meanings of betrayal and dishonesty still stand, but turned inwards, so they become a betrayal of the core self and being dishonest to the values we hold in the highest regard.
