When You Draw This Card

When you draw the Page of Swords, ask yourself first: what most needs your attention right now, the facts, your feelings, or the order of action? You do not need to solve everything at once; begin with the smallest, most specific next step.

If the relationship is under pressure or at a turning point, start the conversation with one specific issue. Asking more questions and investigating further, while letting curiosity serve the facts, will help more than giving the cold shoulder, testing the other person, or forcing yourself to go along.
