Seven of Swords

Keywords: theft, stealth, cunning, rip off, sneak, dishonesty, half-assed effort

General meaning: Taking shizz that don’t belong to you. This is the card of thieving, conniving, and sneaky actions. Copycats and biters. Bullshitters. Rip-offs and con games. Criminal activity. Are you trying to get away with something you know you shouldn’t be doing? The Seven of Swords can also indicate a need to fly under the radar – a situation may be calling for stealth moves. It can also represent a half-assed effort due to cutting corners and haste.

Reversed: Getting caught in the act. Going back to the scene of the crime. Returning stolen goods. Fessing up. Coming clean. Not getting away with the deed. Punishment. Revisiting a situation to make things right. Cleaning up. Doing time for your crime. Do the right thing.

Affirmation: I resolve to do the right thing, even if the other way looks easier.

Theme song: “Been Caught Stealing” by Jane’s Addiction
