Daily Tarot: King of Swords

Daily Tarot Card
King of Swords (upright)
~Mordred~

The artwork for this card is wonderfully detailed.  Mordred is depicted on his throne staring straight at you, intently.  HE is the center of this card.  You are drawn to his face where you see a man of intelligence and cunning.  But knowing the story of Mordred, there is a shadow of something dark in those eyes.  The room seems a bit darker as only one small fire in front of him is the light source.  My initial reaction is always male, intelligent, and tactful.  So to me this card represents a tactician,someone who is cunning and just a tad ruthless in his quest.

Swords always seem a bit menacing to me.  They are instruments of death, beautiful and deadly.  Rider Waite Kings all seem the same to me.  Celtic Dragon shows a King deep in thought with a fire drake, I still get that sense of intelligence and tactician but it lacks the menace and cunning.

Today I am going to spending time with my family which makes me feel like I am eggshells.  I will plan everything I say, do, and wear with them in mind.  This is not what I should be thinking about but that is how approach the day with them.  Today will be keeping my plans in mind.  yes, there is stuff unsaid and it will remain unsaid.
