Tarot Card Symbolism: The Ace of Swords Reversed

Approximately half of all Tarot readers choose to read any cards appearing upside down in a Tarot spread as having reversed meanings. If you are one of them, then the Ace of Swords in its reversed position is a mild version of the same card in its upright position. The reversed or negative meaning is much the same as its upright meaning, although perhaps milder in its effects. You are advised against going to far or being too critical of others.
