Known also as Princess of the Rushing Winds and Lotus of the Palace of Air, the Page of Swords brings new beginnings and the release of fears that have been holding you back. Pages often represent messages so expect news in the form of letters, emails, phone calls that tell of changes afoot. These changes are going to bring a whirlwind of activity so be prepared. Be wary of gossip, which is the lower manifestation of the energy of this card – being a Page, there is an immature or undeveloped quality to this card and if you are not on the lookout, you may get drawn in. This card also represents the flexing of the mind muscle, the use of the intellect and the pitfalls and benefits of independent thought. You may be venturing into an intellectual arena that may be unfamiliar, and therefore it feels strange and uncomfortable. But you need not worry – the speed of air will see you catching up in no time and you will be able to hold your own in any debate. Fears that once held you back are now dissolved and you feel a passion and a thirst for knowledge – don’t they say that knowledge is power? You are willing to embrace new ideas and have the capacity to take on many new beliefs. Communications of all sorts are signified by this card – friendships, connections, negotiations are all held under its umbrella. A bright and precocious child may be important to you in some way now, as the Page can often be experienced as such a gifted prodigy. You are advised to use diplomacy when involved in sensitive discussions – the Suit is a Sword and therefore prone to misconstrued meanings, especially when there is a lot at stake.

“Every child comes with the message that God is not yet discouraged of man.” – Rabindranath Tagore
