In a 7 of Swords Mood

Ever find yourself in a 7 of swords mood? It can happen that you feel as though you are in a long, dark tunnel, and the only way you will feel contentment is to reach the end of that tunnel no matter how endless it seems. Sometimes you may feel like you are unworthy of reaching the light at the end of the tunnel and you must fight sensations of helplessness. You may even feel unworthy of friendship or love from somebody because it seems like they already have all they need from others and you just don’t matter to them the way you had hoped you would. You may reflect on how much they mean to you and all you would do for them, and all you have already done, and feel sad at the realization that this is all one-sided as they are so quick to dismiss you when they don’t need anything from you.

It is normal to slip into these moods. We all do it from time to time. When you find yourself in a 7 of Swords mood, give yourself permission to be a little bit self-centered. Push away these negative and haunting thoughts about yourself and do what it takes to lift your spirits. Do it without the need for validation from others, but rather for the improvement of your own mood. Your actions may strike others as stand-offish or maybe a little rude, but let that be their problem. Right now, you need to put yourself first. –Jim Larsen

7 of Swords: Why Are They Afraid of You?

7 of Swords Tarot Card

7 of Swords Tarot Card: Beware of Dishonest People

The 7 of Swords can come as a warning about deceit, trickery, and dishonesty. You may encounter such people who have only their own self-interests at heart, and will have no concern for your well being as they pursue them.

What prompts these people? Disharmony, for one. There is a feeling that one’s status quo cannot be met without manipulation, the feeling that faith alone and the interconnectedness with others are not enough to achieve balance. This is the feeling that one can only achieve harmony through a limited means, and one must manipulate these means into being. One sees, one imagines what they believe to be a perfect situation for their self, and this is a very narrowly focused view. It does not allow for much alterations or differentiations.

Because of this insistence that things must be this one certain way, one will go to any means to make sure that this is the outcome that comes about. When the outcome sought does not seem to be on the horizon, they redouble their efforts to achieve it. Often, this is done without concern for how this will impact others in the vicinity.

The 7 of Swords can represent someone who is at the center of their own universe. This may also be somebody who feels that the world owes them something. They think it is okay to take this or take that, or break this rule or break that rule, because doing so restores balance. This is somebody around whom you must be careful. Don’t let them take from you and disrespect you just so they can feel better. — Jim Larsen

7 of Swords: Be Careful Who You Trust

7 of Swords Tarot Card: What are the intentions of others?

The 7 of Swords tarot card may show up to warn you about the intentions of others. It is telling you, be careful placing your trust in this person; they are taking advantage of you and/or trying to cheat you. This is one of the big messages of the 7 of Swords- somebody is looking out only for their self with no regard for how the impact of their actions will have on anybody else. This is somebody who is self-centered and will do whatever they have to do, no matter who they have to step on or throw under the bus to have things their way. If your intuition is telling you that you should not trust somebody, listen to it. This is the 7 of Swords piece of yourself talking to you. Listening to your inner 7 of Swords may save you grief and stress later on. –Jim Larsen

7 of Swords: Push Others Away

seven speculation copy

7 of Swords: Take Care of Yourself

Today, the 7 of swords tarot card gives you permission to push others away. It does seem, doesn’t it, that people are always making demands of our time? Do this. Do that. Do this for me. Do that for me. “Mom! I can’t find my shoe!” Dad! I need help!” Go to your job. Do what is expected of you in exchange for that paycheck. Maybe at lunch you can grab a few quiet minutes for yourself- if you’re lucky, but guess what? Here’s that annoying coworker demanding your attention and energy because she has a great story to tell about her all-important grand daughter.

Just for today, it’s okay to take a break from all this. You don’t have to be rude about it (or do you? But let people know you need some time to yourself. Yo don’t want to hear their voices or whatever it is they think you need to know. Why do so many people talk, anyway? Is it to serve you in some way? Usually, it’s because they have some need to be heard, whether you want or need to hear it or not. Some people will talk to you because you are handy to be talked to. Stand you your ground, and keep your distance. You have every right. That is the message of the 7 of Swords for today.
