King of Swords · Küçük Arkana
Otoriter bir hakimiyet: düşünce, çatışma ve hakikat.
Düz: hava, düşünce, çatışma ve hakikat
Ters: tıkalı, aşırılık
He sits in judgment, holding the unsheathed sign of his suit. He recalls, of course, the conventional Symbol of Justice in the Trumps Major, and he may represent this virtue, but he is rather the power of life and death, in virtue of his office.
Whatsoever arises out of the idea of judgment and all its connexions—power, command, authority, militant intelligence, law, offices of the crown, and so forth.
Cruelty, perversity, barbarity, perfidy, evil intention.
A. E. Waite, The Pictorial Key to the Tarot, 1911 — kamu malı.
