Tales of the Swords Suit - Tarot with Enyjé
If you know me or have at least visited my Instagram, you would see one of my favorite pastimes: tarot and oracle. Now, I do not offer readings (lol!), yet I own over twenty decks. They are basically collectibles that I use.
Tarot is fun. It is exciting; it is interesting; it is funny! And with nearly 10 years (since 2019) of owning my own decks and dabbling in it as well as other divinations alike, I have only naturally begun to see and interpret them beyond the ways explained in the guidebooks or the internet.
So, with further ado:
Tales of the Swords Suit — a bit out of order!
(Very Swords-esque!)
Two of Swords
The 'two of swords' does not give off ‘indecision’ despite its meaning.
Shawty looks very #chilled to be indecisive.
The 'two of pentacles', however, gives more of an indecisive, weighing options, and all of the other stuff that comes with it. That man is STRESSED!
BUT—by choice.
You have weaponized incompetence, and then you have weaponized ignorance.
Shawty is NOT indecisive!
I’m cool with that interpretation.
I also view it as masking emotions as well… but not very well.
Like girl, we see the whole body of water (your emotions) behind you; those two little swords are not concealing anything. Très obvious!
Eight of Swords
Kinda same thing with the ‘Eight of Swords’, but not very much hiding emotions, but trying/wanting to be stealth (of course, depending on the context) —like wanting to ‘blend in’/not be obvious/not give off too much… The 'Seven of Swords', on the other hand… that’s motherf*cker drops hints!
Seven of Swords
He gives, but still withholds. Those two swords left behind are deliberate!!!!!!!
And the remaining five—well, either he’s not ready to divulge or there’s more than he’s letting on.
He thinks he’s sneaky, but who the f*ck can overlook two big ass swords staked in the ground?
On the other hand, he thinks he is holding it together, but he has some leaky vibes.
Now, the 'Five of Swords' swears he’s the smoothest motherf*cker.
He’s what everyone thinks the 'Seven of Swords' is, and that’s very 'Five of Swords' of him. He’s literally smirking! He THRIVES in chaos because he is it! It’s not about winning or losing, it’s about baiting!
High key the siren of the swords suit!
The definition of leading on, astray, or to AND/OR thinking he’s slick!
He’s more covert than the 'seven of swords', whose expression (guilty!) is written all over his face.
He knows something you don't—for better or worse, hence the (internal) smirk on his face.
BUT—do not give this man too much credit. He’s MESSY. Leaving a trail!
Four of Swords
'Four of Swords' is the secret keeper.
But as the bearer of secrets, he has his own.
Honestly, with the exception of the 'Four of Pentacles' (he just gives grimey and gossipy—that person that wants you to confide in them just so they can keep it and store it for later—think of Regina George from 'Mean Girls', Gretchen is more of the 'Four of Swords', and Karen is the 'Four of Cups'), you can trust all of the 4s.
Four of Swords — tucked it away.
Four of Cups — wasn’t listening to begin with.
Four of Wands — definition of a safe space!
Six of Swords
Now, the 'Six of Swords is a bit ominous—just a bit… especially coming off the five of swords.
It’s like: Where exactly is this motherf*cker taking us?
It’s like the Uber driver, you’re a little cautious of the entire ride, yet you get to your destination without a hitch.
Nine of Swords
That’s because she has a lot of shit to get off her chest, but she just won’t say it! So, she’s just constantly thinking and thinking, having nightmares about it, anxiety—the whole nine!
Now, Mr. 'Ten of Swords'… Didn’t stand a chance.
Ten of Swords
The definition of existential dread… or maybe his ass is just always sleeping and dreaming!
He also has word vomit, spills all of the beans. An oversharer, if you will. Just so overwhelmed with thoughts that he needs to express. Journaling is not enough for this man! He needs to verbally express this, or he'll literally implode! #ICanRelate
Recently, I had one interpretation: being head over heels…
A romantic, and a wee-bit dramatic.
Words are his affliction yet remedy.
A tortured conversationalist.
In other words, Shakespeare ain't got nothing on him!
Poor him.
Court Cards: Page, Knight, Queen, and King of Swords
Page
They don’t trust anyone. Has a rep for being nosy when really, they just peep shit.
The biggest ‘duh!/obviously!’ sign.
Could be heartache—subjective, could be betrayal… could be rejection... could very well be emotional suppression.
Very emotional to be a sword card.
They’re the embodiment of: '🤨'
Doesn't like dumb people.
Knight
Nosy! All up in the business! Big mouth! Probably arguing. Hyper as fuck.
Always has the tea, though!
When people say they are a yapper, they do not come close to him.
Impulsive as fuck—I'd venture to say even a bit more than the 'knight of wands'. There's a difference between being with the shits (knight of wands) vs being the shits to be with (knight of swords).
He wants a piece of all the action.
Very verbose. Strong desire to talk.
Queen
Always telling someone what to do.
Do not come to her with bullshit—it's insulting to her time and intellect.
But feel free to ask her anything! She loves to talk about anything and everything!
She is a chatterbox when revved. She can easily become the 'ten of swords', too.
King
Meh.
Quiet.
Observant.
Everyone is shocked that he speaks.
Probably does not know your name. If he does, you are special.
Posterman for 'Go ask your Mama,' because peace is better than the smoke and wrath of the Queen.
Imparts some level of philosophy, wisdom, or life tip on you before leaving your presence.
Ace of Swords
Basically a billboard.
Three of Swords
Perhaps, talking about feelings.
Could be a crush too—a very mental and emotional thing; one part heart palpitations and warmth, the other part non-stop thinking about them to the point it may hurt.
Too afraid to tell your crush you like them, so you 'freeze' up.
May even stop breathing when you see them. #Breathless
Definition of a heartthrob.
Definition of a heartthrob.
Very emotional to be a sword card.
The End.
Tarot is fun! Don’t even get me started on the wands suit.
One word: phallique.
