Queen of Swords and King of Swords

The suit's two mature faces, and they are not the same. The Queen has been through something and reads people accordingly; the King holds authority and judges from principle. Together the tradition reads them as clear thinking from two directions: experience and rule.

Associated with a relationship conducted honestly and without much softness. Read well by people who prefer that.

Strong for legal, editorial, analytical and advisory work. Associated with decisions that will be defensible afterwards.

Swords cut both ways, which is the standing caution for the suit. The pairing is at its worst used to win an argument that did not need winning.
