LORD OF UNSTABLE EFFORT
MOON IN AQUARIUS
The Seven of Swords is Netzach in Yetzirah. It is the power of Victory (Emotion) in the Airy Formative World. Â It is also Moon in Aquarius. Â And this is where it gets murky. Â Moon is full of illusions and deceptions. Â In an unstable and unpredictable sign of Aquarius, it muddies the waters and covers its tracks. Nothing in the Seven of Sword is as it seems. Â
Furthermore, Netzach, a Sephirah of unbridled flow of feelings and emotions is ruled by Venus, – another emotional and sensual planet. Â Considering that all this is going on in the world also ruled by the Moon (Yetzira), any logic and rationale of Air (Swords) is pushed aside and trampled. As a result, we are confronted with another name of this card: FUTILITY.
SYMBOLISM
The ultimate symbol of the Seven of Swords is shown in this this card: The Trojan Horse. The very epitome of confusion is deceit is forefront and center. Â The lonely soldier hiding behind the horse gives a hint that at times a lovely gesture is hiding an unknown threat.
