Be true to yourself and the values you hold dear.

The tarot card of the day is the Queen of Swords.

The Queen of Swords is a noblewoman in a long white dress, with her sword drawn and ready to fight for what she believes is right. She wears a crown on her head. Her expression is fierce as if she will not be stopped.

The Queen of Swords is the personification of the strength that can be realized through the utilization of the mind. In addition, her body language shows someone self-sufficient, intelligent, and independent. All the traits are essential if you wish to succeed in life.

It's not only women who can relate to her. Anyone not interested in conforming to the idealistic view of how they should live their lives can identify with the Queen of Swords. It's about being truthful with yourself about the beliefs you hold.

The Queen of Swords encourages you to take charge of your life and chart your course. So, design the life you want!

Never Lower Your Standards

One glance at the Queen is all it takes to recognize a determined individual. Sometimes, people give her a cold treatment because they assume she is standoffish and hard to please – but she isn't. She just won't settle for anything less than what she deserves.

The Queen will never tolerate bad treatment from others. She will always stand up for herself. She will never allow anyone to hurt her or mistreat her.

You, too, can be powerful when dealing with difficult situations. Don't let other people tell you what to do with your life. You are allowed to do what makes you happy.

Do What You Feel Is Best for You

The Queen of Swords represents the power of intuition and psychic insight. She reminds us that we must learn to trust our instincts, even if they conflict with what others want us to believe. Her symbol is a three-pronged spear for strength, determination, and courage.

In the reversed position, she signifies a denial of the inner self, which makes her an excellent card for those seeking clarity about their true desires and motivations. It doesn't necessarily mean that you are being deceitful. Instead, it suggests that you have been trying to deny your genuine emotions.

The idea of facing yourself and your true intentions scares you – but why? What do you fear most?

If you feel stuck in a situation, ask yourself what you're afraid of losing by standing up for yourself. Do you think you'll lose friends? Or maybe you're worried about what kind of treatment you will get when you express your wish to be happy.

Whatever it is, ask yourself whether there's any truth behind your fears. If there is no truth to it, take a step towards making changes.

You Are the Final Judge of Your Actions

The Queen of Swords advises you to avoid becoming overly reliant on others at this time. You don't want to trust someone who might let you down, especially since you don't know whether they could fulfill their promise. Instead, allow yourself to have peace of mind by doing everything yourself.

It is also good to remember that the Queen rarely asks permission. She has her own way of doing things. So, if you hesitate to make a move, let the Queen's energy guide you. You may not receive positive feedback immediately, but you will eventually discover that relying on yourself is always a good decision.

Betting on yourself is a powerful move. It gives you the confidence to face challenges head-on. When you act without hesitation, you gain more control over your destiny. Just like a true queen should be.

The Queen of Swords signifies joy and happiness in your life. So use its energy to create something joyful and exciting. Start working on a project you've been putting off, or begin planning that vacation you've been looking forward to.
