The suggestion of harmony and other favourable readings must be considered in a qualified manner, as Swords generally are not symbolical of beneficent forces in human affairs.
Gifts for a lady, influential protection for a man in search of help.
Reversed Meaning
Reversed
Imposture, falsehood, duplicity, disloyalty.
Dealings with rogues.
