Swords

Swords in Minor Arcana are cards represented by the zodiac signs of Gemini, Libra and Aquarius. And like all of these zodiac signs, people represented by Swords love communication and are very intelligent. For swords themselves are associated with thoughts and words, communication, documents, formalities, and quick events. Swords are like wind that passes quickly but kindles the fire. Although the cards themselves are associated with coldness (and rightly so) and evoke bad feelings, you should remember that swords are logic that allows you to solve many problems. Swords are therefore the opposite of Cups and they are much closer to Coins than Wands. Swords also allow you to cut something off, to inflict or receive pain.
