Making a decision can make all the difference


Some time ago I did a few readings for a very sweet Chinese man.  He knew he was a little too sensitive and took romantic set backs a little too hard,  and he wanted to work on it.

At his first reading he had sad,  wishy washy cards,  where none of the answers were definitive or even illuminating.  I felt embarrassed! But he came back six months later, and his cards had completely changed,  far more energized and to the point.  

I asked him what had changed and he said that he had decided to return home - to China,  For some people,  being a migrant is too hard and they never really establish deep roots.  He had come to the US with a student visa,  but never really found his footing.


However,  the thought of going back,  gave him confidence and energy - which the cards matched!  In 6 months he moved from pages to kings.  At his very center he drew King of Swords x the 6 of Wands.  We were both very excited and pleased to see that.  He also drew the Ace of Swords,  cutting through the fog and confusion,  getting to certainty.  

I was pleased to see how coming to a decision had clarified and energized his cards so significantly.   Sometimes making a decision can make all the difference!

The Ace of Swords


Like a breath of fresh air, the Ace of swords cuts through the mists of confusion. It gives you clarity, focus, vision.


I think the Ace cuts to the heart of the matter. I often see it when relationships are complicated; the Ace of swords tells you when you need to cut yourself free. Of course if the Ace is cutting through illusions/delusions, some of those illusions may belong to us! As I always say with swords, swords learn through pain, so if you are the one having trouble letting go of the relationship, the Ace cuts through your false dreams - which may hurt in the short term, but will heal in the long term…


I like the Inner Child version, of Excalibur being pulled free, giving you the strength, luck and magic to do what needs to be done.
