Queen of Swords Love Tarot Meaning

The Queen of Swords represents an intellectual gifted person who tends to be a loner (often they are widowed or divorced). They might have the brains of a rocket scientist but they have the emotional insight of a not very bright slug. Their strong character enables them to get results but that steely resolve and impressive intelligence can intimidate lesser mortals. If you are courting such a person it may take a while to win their heart as they may have been on their own for a while and become a bit set in their ways. Be frank in your intentions but don't hurry them, they will come round in their own time.

This card often signifies the need to demonstrate some will power and grit to achieve your goals. Occasionally she may suggest that a relationship is drawing to a close. In relationships she demands clear communication and boundaries between couples.

There are nastier characters than the one represented by the reversed Queen of Swords, but they are thankfully few and far between. This person is spiteful, manipulative and enjoys ruining other folk's lives: don't let them near your relationship they'd love to destroy it.

Matched or single it's great to be independent and a free spirit but for a relationship to work you have to be willing to give a little of yourself. You need to find a balance between keeping a rational head on your shoulders and expressing your emotions.
