In a straight position - a sharp critical look at things, the property of not believing anyone's word, which most often leads to success.

During this period, investments related to the message can bring significant profit.

In matters of love

Your relationship is based more on ideas, communication, or other common ground than on really deep feelings. Your partner may share your ideals, but the communication itself will be very discreet.

The doctor who came to the patient. The woman is clearly not happy to see him - her face is despondent. This suggests that even if the doctor is a professional in his field, then regardless of whether the patient's disease is curable or not, the doctor does not provide moral comfort and support, there is not at least the same sympathy. For him, it's just business. Either he does not bother to "smile sympathetically", or "grandmothers with their eternal whining" annoy him, and he does not hide it, or hides it, but under the guise of indifference. If we take into account the woman's despondency, then the doctor most likely does not come for the first time, this suggests that all attempts to "break through the wall" of the doctor's indifference went to waste.

Characteristic: a person who occupies a dominant position in society or a single group. If he is not a leader, then he is a bright figure in the group due to his experience and authority. The man is "invincible". He acts according to his own advantage, but he does not live the situation. He is tough, calculating, irritable, authoritative and successful. His own thoughts and feelings can be "masked" if he sees fit to put them on. Even if he put it on, he is betrayed by the metallic look of a person who is alien to pity and sympathy. The King of Swords is not one of those people who burst into tears from tenderness or from the same pity, sentiment is alien to him. He will not make concessions if he does not receive benefits from them or if he will have to work very hard for others. Altruism is alien to the King of Swords, and if he "covers him", then later he will consider that he has been "deceived". The King of Swords will not give up his position unless you have sufficient arguments to force him to reconsider it.

Business: tough decisions; transactions that do not take into account the moral and ethical aspects of the issue; a business where employees are just cogs in the machine. Strict control, a system of penalties, high demands, large dropouts. Difficult working conditions due to rigid control system. Bureaucracy. A firm or person with a high position in their industry. In matters of employment - high competition for a place, tough selection. In matters of subsidies, loans, lending money - high interest rates and a high probability of refusal.

Relations: the leader in the pair leads the relationship completely at his own discretion. He makes the main decisions, he chooses the direction of development of relations. He builds relationships on the principle where the partner either submits to his authority, or "let him bring down on all 4 sides." As a rule, such behavior of the leader of the couple refers to the underlying reason for the very behavior of the King of Swords - here there will be either a high social position, or a high financial position, or other popularity of the King of Swords with the opposite sex (since the conceit of the King of Swords is always justified by something - he is the King, his conceit does not arise from scratch) - he can afford to change partners. This, among other things, also indicates that the King of Swords is either not in love with a partner, or is affectionate, but on occasion, pride will still outweigh.

Advice: get involved in the situation as little as possible. An emotional approach in this context is not appropriate.

A warning: if the King of Swords has put on a mask of indifference, do not try to remove it by trying to pity him. You expect that he hid his "vulnerable heart" under it in order to maintain peace of mind and not succumb to the influence of the situation, imbued with it. This is by no means the case, he hid his irritation under it, and if you force him to remove the mask of indifference, then instead of the expected reaction of pity and sympathy, the King of Swords will show you how you "enrage" him .. \ you will be tried to "dissolve" on pity or otherwise play on your emotions.

Values ​​according to Ryder White:

ASTROLOGICAL SIGNIFICANCE: Mercury in Gemini as a symbol of dexterity, wit, cunning and resourcefulness.

KING OF SWORDS
The King of Swords is the masculine manifestation of the element of air. This is the power of a sharp, quick, subtle mind, expressed here both in its creative, versatile and often unpredictable form, and in the form of cunning and ironic audacity. Such a mind is an excellent means of cognition, understanding, analysis, logical reasoning and abstraction, mathematical and purely practical calculation, solution and comprehensive resolution of any problems. However, where it dominates all other abilities, its negative sides also appear: pure intellectualism, coldness feelings, caustic and cynical criticism, passion for puns and "an extraordinary lightness of thought."

From the book: Hayo Banzhaf. SELF-TUTORIAL ON TAROT.
Translation from German by E. Kolesov.
Publisher: Center for Astrological Research, 1999

KING OF SWORDS
A person who expresses his positions or intentions with the help of the Sword. His personal qualities are determined by the qualities of the Staff. To his surroundings, he appears clear and direct, perhaps purposeful. In order to achieve his goal, he breaks down resistance, goes to the roots of things, without hesitation cuts off everything that seems superfluous to him. Because of this, many respect him rather than love him, and some even fear him.
If the girlfriend of the KING OF SWORDS shares his professional interests, then he will make her his partner. But he will not hesitate to say goodbye to his beloved if their relationship interferes with his career or other interests. So if your friend is the KING OF SWORDS, try to be careful!

DIRECT POSITION
Astrological equivalents: Aries, Libra, Mars in Libra, First House.
A strong and energetic person, although sometimes unnecessarily cruel and straightforward, the KING OF SWORDS relies more on himself than on others. Physically stronger than most of the people around him, he is nevertheless well aware of the limits of his abilities. Often the KING OF SWORDS is a personality of a heroic warehouse. We will be able to find many people who fit the spirit of this card among the leaders who assert their power through overt forceful methods.
Moreover, the "spectrum" of this card is unusually wide: from a criminal godfather to a military leader like Chapaev. Very often, a whole epics of rumors, gossip, myths are composed around the personality of the KING OF SWORDS - since he himself constantly gives reasons for this. Since the KING OF SWORDS works with dense matters, both he himself and his deeds, as a rule, are visible and understandable to people around him.
The KING OF SWORDS can also act as a peacemaker. However, even here he will act from a position of strength. This is the personification of the third force, balancing the other two - opposing ones.

REVERSED POSITION
Astrological equivalents: Aries, Libra, Mars in Aries, Mars in Cancer.
If in the upright position the KING OF SWORDS showed us an energetic and prudent person, clearly aware of his own capabilities, then in the inverted position the KING OF SWORDS is either completely devoid of this quality, or, conversely, overly cautious and timid. In the first case, we have a reckless grunt (“what do you think, you need to jump”), in the second: “What if I get something for this?”
But in any position, the KING OF SWORDS indicates a very passionate person. However, this quality is characteristic of all "sword-bearing" court cards.

It is like laying the foundation for a future action or process. At this stage, the final decision is made and the "front of work" is determined. Everything is very specific. The time for worries and hesitation is over, the time has come to act.

B. Reversed Position
The time to act has not yet come, as there is no specific statement of the problem. Everything is very global and vague.

Osho Zen Tarot Deck

Arcana Description:

Sometimes control is appropriate, but if we trust it to run our lives, we become absolutely rigid. The figure of a man is enclosed in the corners of the pyramids that surround him. Reflections of light sparkle on their shining surfaces, but do not penetrate inside. He is like a mummy inside this structure that he has built around himself. His fists are clenched, and his gaze is empty, almost blind. The lower part of his body under the table is the point of a knife, a blade that cuts and separates. His world is predetermined and perfect, but he is not alive - he cannot allow any spontaneity or vulnerability to enter.

The direct position of the King of the Clouds card is Control:

The image of the Cloud King reminds us to take a deep breath, loosen our tie, and take things easy. If mistakes happen, that's okay. If things get a little out of hand, this might be exactly what you need right now. In this way you are much closer to life than when you are trying to manage everything.

Meaning of the card:

Controlled people are always nervous, because there is still a mess hidden in the depths. If you are uncontrollable, agile, alive, then you are not nervous. It is not a question of your nervousness - whatever happens will happen. You have no expectations for the future, you are not performers. Then why be nervous? In order to control such a mind one has to remain cold and frozen in order not to allow any vital energy to move in the limbs, in the body. If the energy is allowed to move, these suppressions will come to the surface. That is why people have learned to remain cold, to touch others and yet not touch them, to see people and yet not see them. People live with the cliché "Hello. How are you?" Nobody means anything. All this is just to avoid the actual meeting of two people. People don't look into each other's eyes, they don't hold hands, they don't try to feel each other's energy, they don't let each other flow - they're very afraid, controlling, cold and dead, living in a straitjacket.
