Page of Swords

A young figure walks over rough ground with a raised sword, glancing back as wind moves the clouds. Waite gives authority, overseeing, secret service, vigilance and spying. The card is about watching closely and gathering information before anyone acts.

Starting a new job or weighing up a new partner calls for this alertness. Ask plenty of questions and read the small print. Keep your curiosity open and honest, since people notice when questions turn into surveillance.

Watchfulness goes sour in this position. Waite calls it the more evil side of those qualities, which today looks like reading a partner's phone or gossiping about a coworker. He also adds the unforeseen and an unprepared state.

Drop the snooping and prepare your own work. Waite mentions sickness here too, which is no forecast, so take health concerns to a doctor. Ask directly for what you want to know.
