The personality of the tarot king of swords is a combination of the positive air energy of the suit of Swords and the active, outward deep focus of a King. He is a man of deep and profound intellect who can absorb well and work with intense information of all kinds. As a master of logic and reason, he analyzes any problem with ease. He can work out solutions rapidly and explain them very lucidly to others. In a chaotic situation, he easily cuts through the confusion and provides the much needed clarity to move forward. Others seek him out to present their case as he speaks with insight and articulacy. He is always ingenuous and can be blindly relied upon to handle any situation honorably and fairly. When a judgment is called for, he can render an impartial and a just decision. He is incorruptible and lives by the highest ethical standards. He encourages those around him to do the same, and they often live up to his expectations.

In Tarot readings, the king of swords asks you to take the kinds of actions he might take when he is confronted with a situation like yours. For example: standing up for the truth, thinking up a solution to a problem, communicating well, or probably judging fairly. This king can also represent a woman or a man, who is acting as he does, or an atmosphere of reason, honesty and high standards in life. In a Tarot reading, he tells you that his special energies have a profound meaning for you at this time. Let yourself be inspired by the king of swords in whatever form he appears in your life.
