Seven of Swords tarot card meaning

strategy
secrecy
getting away with it

Upright

Someone tiptoes away from a camp with five swords, glancing back. The Seven of Swords is strategy and secrecy, sometimes clever, sometimes deception, including self-deception.

Reversed

Reversed, the truth coming out, or a decision to stop going it alone.

If you pulled it today

Check whether you’re being fully honest, with others and with yourself. A clever workaround is fine; sneaking around your own values isn’t. Come clean where you need to.
