Meaning

The Seven Swords tarot card symbolizes a struggle for truth and truthfulness . We are either in an inner battle or in a battle with a fellow human being.
If the conflict is internal, we don't want to admit something. We close our eyes to reality and delude ourselves. We often don't even realize that we are standing in our own way. It is time to face up to the problems and overcome our own fears or doubts.
But it may also be that we are being deceived and defrauded by someone else, because we are succumbing to deception .

Perhaps we are lying to ourselves.

Seven Swords - Card of the day

Small deceptions don't always have to be bad. As long as you don't harm anyone and don't overstep boundaries, you can try a little cheating. However, you may have a tendency to exaggerate today. It would therefore be appropriate to critically question your behavior towards others.
However, the Seven Swords can also indicate that you yourself are a victim of deception. It is better to postpone signing contracts until tomorrow or consult a trusted person.
