Ace of Swords

Clarity cuts through.

The image

A hand from a cloud grips an upright sword whose tip passes through a golden crown hung with an olive branch and a palm frond, above bare mountains.

Keywords: clarity, truth, breakthrough

Light side

A clear thought can cut through confusion. Naming the truth simply gives you power and a fresh start.

Shadow side

A sharp mind can also wound. Clarity used to win arguments rather than understand can cut people, including you.
