Page of Swords Reversed Tarot Meaning and Interpretation

The reversed Page of Swords can sometimes represent a literal person in your life. This can be someone younger than you, who may have a tendency to stick his or her nose in where it doesn’t belong. If so, don’t hesitate to draw boundaries.
General
In general the reversed Page of Swords tells you that you simply can’t plan for everything. Unexpected occurrences are part of life and you shouldn’t beat yourself up because of them. Work through any problems that crop up one step at a time.
Love
In love questions, the reversed Page of Swords points to difficulty in communications. Say what you mean and mean what you say. However, when relating to your partner, you may need to look at deeper meanings behind the words.
If you’re seeking love, you might find yourself drawn to someone who comes across as overly boastful or full of grand stories. Before writing them off, consider this: what sounds like arrogance could simply be nervous energy or a desire to impress. First dates and new connections can make even the most genuine people stumble over their words.
Give them – and yourself – the grace of a second look. True connection often lies beneath the surface. But of course, if the bravado never fades, trust your instincts. The right person will make you feel valued, not exhausted by their performance.
Money and Finances
When it comes to money, the reversed Page can indicate that you may receive a message that you aren’t thrilled about, such as you or your partner not getting an expected pay rise. Don’t panic; you can work with the situation and things could be a whole lot worse. Don’t overreact, either. The initial information you get may be incorrect. Dig deeper and be patient.
Work and Career
In relation to work questions, the reversed Page indicates that you may soon be dealing with some unexpected conflict at work or a message you were not expecting. Neither is necessarily a bad thing, just take a few minutes to think before you respond.
If you’re seeking work, know that some employers are very likely to do intensive background checks before hiring you. Be prepared to respond about questions regarding your past and/or about information you consider personal, like your credit score.
Health
The reversed Page of Swords can indicate people talking off the cuff in relation to health in a way that could be worrisome. Remember that all may not be as it seems, initially. Before agreeing to major, invasive health procedures, seek a second opinion if at all possible. Don’t share health information that you want to be kept private, particularly with someone you don’ t know well. They are unlikely to keep your secret.
Please note: The health section is for informational purposes only and should not be considered a medical diagnosis – always consult your doctor.
Spirituality
This card in the context of spirituality can indicate that you will meet someone who sets themselves up as a spiritual guru, but who in fact talks a great deal more than they actually know. Be cautious and circumspect, take what this person has to say which really resonates with you, and leave the rest behind. Beware of egotistical spiritual advisors.
