The Seven of Swords is sneakiness, strategy and wits. Sometimes that's hiding in a shadow until the guard passes; sometimes it's betraying someone for your own good. This isn't always a hero card.
Here are three characters who capture the Seven of Swords’ spirit:
Jack O'Neill (Stargate SG1)
Jack never met a plan that couldn't be simpler. His crowning moment of cunning is listening to Bra'tac outline a complicated, multi step plan to overpower some guards who are positioned below them; Jack simply drops a grenade on their heads. His sense of strategy is second to none.
Seven of Swords Vibes:
• Strategy through experience
• Pretends to be slower than he is
• Quick wit and cleverness
Ethan Rayne (Buffy the Vampire Slayer)
Ethan absolutely is this card. Nothing is ever what it seems with him; there's always another layer below what he's doing. In his very first appearance, he already knows that he needs to distract Buffy from his actual plan with another, equally dangerous plan. You can never trust this sorcerer.
Seven of Swords Vibes:
• Outward appearance is always a mask
• Plans for failure
• Always on his own side
Loki (MCU)
Loki is an excellent person to have on your side; he's clever, powerful, resourceful - but if the other side suits him better, he'll betray you without a second thought. Loki's loyalties are always complicated and, while he might ally himself with the side of good, you can never be 100% sure of him.
Seven of Swords Vibes:
• Powerful and clever
• Always has another plan
• Always thinking three steps ahead
Final Thought
The Seven of Swords reminds us: cunning and strategy are good things, but like everything they can go too far. Have you been upsetting someone in your pursuit of power - or is someone about to unseat you?
✨ What part of your life needs some careful planning today?
