This woman has a sharp tongue and can cause distress to others by making stinging and often sarcastic remarks and comments. She is not someone you would wish to cross swords with.
A very cold and domineering woman is represented by the Queen of Swords. Her hard exterior conceals an inner loneliness, and she uses her coldness as a form of self-defence.
The Queen of Swords appearing reversed tells of one who is quite fixed in her own ways, is tolerant of others and is prone to malicious gossip. The Queen of Swords reversed may be a warning not to confide in someone at this time, as they may gossip about you and your plight. It is unwise to confide in this lady as she can be quite deceitful.
The reversed Queen of Swords may come across as being quite intolerant, narrow-minded and obstinate. She may find it difficult to see and accept someone else’s point of view.
When the Queen of Swords appears in a spread reversed, it is a warning to keep your views and opinions to yourself rather than confiding in another - otherwise you will suffer from gossip and rumour-mongering.
Reversed, the Queen of Swords tells of a situation where you may be dealing with an insincere person or situation. Do not make any moves at this time as there are mis-truths, deceptions and/or upset plans. Remain aware of your own ideas and beliefs and do not confide in a woman who ‘pretends’ to be your ally and confidante - she is not.
