Even though your intellect is telling you otherwise, there are moments when you need to listen to your gut.
Queen of Swords (Reversed)
Meaning:
The reversed Queen of Swords might stand for failing to forgive the past and using it as a club to beat others around you. An older or more experienced woman in your life may try to bring you down by spreading unfavorable rumors about you or being overly critical. It may also be a sign that you lack the independence and freedom you want or that you feel reliant on others. This card also stands for infertility and having a distant or chilly mother or a wicked stepmother. A mature female or feminine person who is typically not a good character because she can be bitter, cruel, cold, unforgiving, and pessimistic is represented by the reversed Queen of Swords. She is a woman who may have experienced pain or loss firsthand and uses that as an excuse to hold others back. She has a cruel, vindictive, and capricious side. She may lack empathy for others and might be obsessive and domineering. She has a tendency to be too critical or harsh toward those around her, which can make her appear nasty and depressing. The reversed card also suggests the person might be a liar and deceitful.
Love and Relationships (Reversed):
The Queen of Swords reversed in a love reading can suggest that you are dating someone who exemplifies the traits listed above, or that you are exhibiting some of those traits in your romantic relationships. The Queen of Swords could stand in for a woman who is in a committed relationship but fears being alone or believes her freedom is overly constrained. However, if this card depicts your spouse, it may be a warning of a dishonest, deceitful, or cunning lady. The Queen of Swords reversed might also portend the possibility of interference and conflict in your relationship from a sour or spiteful older woman. This card may also be trying to warn you that you (or your spouse) are holding back past hurts because doing so prevents you from being the loving, devoted, and caring partner you can be. For your relationship to succeed, you must resolve these problems. This also suggests that you refrain from being too harsh with your lover. Give them a break—including you—because nobody is perfect.
Finance (Reversed):
Getting the Queen of Swords reversed in a finance reading suggests that an older lady who is dishonest or malevolent may give you lousy financial advice, so take caution.
