The Ace of Swords Upright represents the need to break new ideas to the marketplace, firstly by having personal breakthroughs and finding clarity.
If you have thought about a solution to a problem in the world, whether big or small, then this tarot card is for you.
The Ace of Swords Upright Meaning
Are you the type of person to think of new ideas? Things that haven’t been done before? Then you’re in luck! So few people have this wisdom to think of something that the world needs.
The world has its problems, but also its opportunities. Never before have we been able to bring something to the market at such a global level. While you may not be the entrepreneurial yogi, there is still hope within your local area.
First you’ll have to find clarity and the thing you want to create. Perhaps it’s opening a yoga studio, launching your own meditation products or simply becoming a professional tarot card reader. Either way – there are opportunities out there! That said – stamina will be needed to take these ideas from concept to completion.
Card Reading
We see the hand which is holding a sword. The grip is firm and the sword is upright, representing the connection to the highest power. The wreath which drapes the sword signifies victory and having already crossed the finish line.
Indeed all things are won twice. First they’re won in the mind and later their won in the battlefield. A battles then are essentially won long before they are fought, due to the mental resilience of individuals.
The jagged mountains we see in the background remind us that the journey isn’t easy. You’ll have to navigate some troubled areas and see clarity when things don’t necessarily go your way.
We also see the clouds at the base of the Ace of Swords Upright which means that the source of all creation comes from above. When we dream and imagine the future, we can then create it in the present.
This divine force of creation is forgiving. You can keep trying again and again, where you’ll eventually break through with more mental stamina and your own victory, whether big or small.
Encouraging times
If you have been putting something off for a long time, then now is the time to stand up. New projects and opportunities surround us today more than ever before. It’s a chance to find the inspiration for creation you posessed as a child.
The power is now yours. You hold the sword and the key to your own destiny. You can use this for good or for evil, but most commonly you’ll use it to defend yourself. After all, people will attempt to squash your ideas down.
It’s time to expand your foothold and it’s never too late to create something new. Even those in their 60’s and 70’s pick up new hobbies and things to enjoy. They thrive on making the best use of their time now that the responsibilities have gone.
With this new insight, you can clearly see what lays ahead. Will it be easy? Certainly not, but it’s your belief in yourself and the project that you’re working on that will see it completed much easier than before.
Often the best things are those which solve problems. Ask youself: Which problem are you solving for the world? Meditate on this question if you need to, and once you have the answer, it’s time to take that passion into fruition.
Going forward
We are literally living in the greatest period in human history. This is where truth and reasoning come forth. And truth is that you are so much more powerful than you ever thought possible.
With a strong heart and mind, you can solve problems at a local or global level. Success is as much about you as it is about others. It’s your responsibility to now rise to the opportunities which lay ahead.
You are ready to breakthrough and begin laying the foundations for your prosperous future ahead.
