The Root of the Powers of Air, the Ace of Swords represents justice, power and an upsurge of mental energy.
The Ace of Swords is a powerful force for original ideas, creative energy and a renewed sense of clarity and purpose. The Aces in all of the Suits contain the most potent energy in the pip cards, and this energy must be sufficiently strong to kick-start the positive focus that each Ace represents. As pure potential, the results can go either way and the most positive potential is here, at the beginning. Use the energy wisely and don't waste it.
This card will cut through those patterns in your life that have outlived their usefulness, and it brings a renewed sense of vigour, energy and a eagerness to move into new territory. You have felt stultified and stuck in certain areas of your life and you wake up one day soon to realise that the thoughts you have been thinking have all been thought before and they are not even yours.
It is as if you awaken from a dream, like the Sleeping Beauty and now need to make up for lost time and opportunities.
The energy in this card can move mountains, and it all starts with an idea, a change of focus and a willingness to put one foot in front of the other in the right direction.
Your enthusiasm and confidence will enlist others to encourage and support you, as your energy towards an exciting future change is infectious.
Traditionally this card refers to legal matters, new contracts or other documents that bring in a new phase or project - it is all progress and is a good omen.
Your clarity around situations is at its height now, and you are able to utilise knowledge gained under the influence of this card to your advantage, while others are sleeping so to speak.
What do you want to achieve now, what decisions and momentum can you focus on the propel you into the most positive future you can imagine? Make haste and make the best of this influence.
