Leans yes. Yes-or-no readings are a rough guide; the cards' story matters more than the verdict.

## If a card is reversed

Reversed, the Ace of Swords reads as: a delayed start in thought, truth and communication. The seed is there, but it needs patience or clearer intention. Reversed, the Justice reads as: unfairness or avoiding accountability. Look honestly at what is out of balance. A reversal softens, delays or turns the pair's message inward.
