In These Spread Positions...Interpret the Nine of Swords Meanings to Include:
289
1 GOVERNED BY THE MAGICIAN: PHYSICAL GIVENS, OUT OF THE FATHER
UPRIGHT: No one can know much more about the affairs of the Physical/Material Plane than
you do. Informed, articulate, attentive, concerned, you are the dream on anyone’s Board of
Directors. People know that where you are concerned, nothing will go unnoticed. INVERTED:
Do not bury yourself in stacks of paper on your desk. Too many facts and you will not be able to
see the forest for the trees.
2 GOVERNED BY THE HIGH PRIESTESS: EMOTIONAL GIVENS, OUT OF THE MOTHER
UPRIGHT: Here is an archetype of the psychiatrist/psychologist and all those with intricate knowledge
of the inner workings of the Emotional Plane and the subconscious. INVERTED: You will be
very serious about these matters but so much the better to make you a good writer or the like using
the power of the mind to unravel and explain the secrets of the heart.
3 GOVERNED BY THE EMPRESS: MENTAL GIVENS, INTELLECTUAL PREDISPOSITION
UPRIGHT: You are a repository of much knowledge, and manage information well. Your opinions
are of great value. A judge would be lucky to have such an archetype here; most do not. INVERTED:
You are naturally prone to accept responsibility in any set of circumstances. Do not step on others’
toes in the process. Others have their responsibilities, too.
4 GOVERNED BY THE EMPEROR: SPIRITUAL GIVENS, LIFE PURPOSE
UPRIGHT: This is a path of wisdom with nobility of purpose. Here you become a master of the
management of knowledge. As you approach universal mind you are becoming more aware of the
darkest dark as well as the lightest light. A pervasive, though not unpleasant, sense of urgency is
present. INVERTED: As knowledge at this level increases, each increment of growth brings noticeable
increments of greater responsibility. The easy path is the one in which the responsibility is as
eagerly sought and welcomed as the knowledge.
5 GOVERNED BY THE HIEROPHANT: SYSTEMS BORN INTO, SOCIETAL INFLUENCE
UPRIGHT: Your earliest living environment may have been as much a school as it was a home, for
it was full of knowledge. INVERTED: There may have been an abundance of information, but with
a surprising lack of real understanding. Discipline and pressure to achieve may have been excessive.
You may not have been afforded much time for true childhood, being thrust into adult responsibilities
very early.
6 GOVERNED BY THE LOVERS: EMOTIONAL TAPES, BASIS FOR RELATING/CREATING
UPRIGHT: This is a very prodigious archetype for early emotional tapes. This is the higher mind
impressing the heart with its knowledge of the situations that need attention in the world. This
young heart not only accepted the challenge to do something about improving the world, it made
that challenge its number one priority, its passion. INVERTED: Even with the nobility of such an
altruistic passion as yours, you are not relieved of the responsibility of fulfilling what we call the
“lower” emotion—to love, possibly to mate, to experience sensual pleasure, to enjoy family and
friends and simple humor. These are called lower only in that they usually come first, not that they
are any the less important.
7 GOVERNED BY THE CHARIOT: PHYSICAL RESOURCES, MEANS TO ACHIEVE
UPRIGHT: You know the names of all the plants in the inner courtyard, and you know which are
life giving and which are poison. Armed as you are with an encyclopedia of helpful tidbits, you can
bring formidable intelligence to any problem put on your table. INVERTED: Too much or too little
information/thinking. Also the likelihood that you are too intent on the information itself instead
of what it is to be used for.
