Seven of Swords · Strategy and honesty

Strategy and honesty through thought and language: Station 7, Netzach, in Yetzirah.

Understand the idea

A plan can use careful timing, but it can also conceal information others need. Examine whether the desired result depends on a misleading account. In Babylon’s numbered-card address, Seven identifies Station 7, Netzach, and Swords identifies Yetzirah, the lens of thought and language. The current daily action word is WANT. The card image’s theme and the station’s action word provide two related teaching prompts; they are not interchangeable definitions.

MAKE IT PRACTICAL

An example to work with

Prepare a difficult proposal privately, then disclose the limits people need to make an informed decision.
