Knight of Swords

[1] In English-speaking countries, where the games are largely unknown, tarot cards came to be utilized primarily for divinatory purposes.

[3] Alternative interpretations include one's quest for knowledge and information that may not always be factual, changing of thoughts or decisions, rushing into relationships, commitments or projects, entering ones life and turning it up-side-down before leaving, chaotic influence or the developing of the mind with new ideas and information through a course of study or changing careers overnight.

The knight of Swords is often taken to represent a confident and articulate young man, who may act impulsively.

When played "reversed", the knight of swords could represent a clever liar, secrets, or a sly and deceitful confidence trickster.

A reversed knight of swords is also a warning that an intended path would be a terrible mistake, or more precisely, that reconsidering your actions would be a wise decision.
