This is the card of the empath, someone who realizes the vital connection between the outer word and other people.  She represents emotional intelligence, honesty, wisdom, success, happiness, compassion, intuition, and could represent a good spouse or mother.  She recognizes human frailty, and can teach others to cope with life's challenges.  She can be at risk of getting too close to people or coming across as smothering the initiative of those she tries to help.  She always acts with an awareness of love, but may need to be reminded to give a hand, not a hand-out.  She represents important women or personality traits related to the querents sitation.  She is in touch with deeper emotional knowledge and may have a psychic vibe or even come off as eccentric.  She reminds you to follow your heart.

Traditionally, the seven of swords indicates opposition, deceit, trickery, and overall shady behavior. You could also be your own worst enemy if this card appears, so take this as a warning to evaluate and rid yourself of negative behaviors.  This card signifies scheming, careful planning while acting alone, and running off with the enemies' weapons.  You may need to ask yourself "Are you the trickster? Or is someone tricking you?"  Beware of slander, secrets, untrustworthiness, and quarrels, while focusing on finding alternative solutions, goal setting, and handling situations with tact.

While this card can indicate affection, infatuation, or love, it often can represent an important decision needing to be made. These options may seem equally attractive, and you may be weighing your options between what you have and what you think you want.  You may also be having nostalgia for a past love, so a romantic decision must be made as your decisions have long term consequences.  If in a troubled relationship this could be seen as a warning that temptation is coming, or if in a happy relationship, it could indicate blessings from above.
