THIS LIBRA WOMAN WEIGHS MATTERS MENTALLY
THEN RAISES HER HAND TO MAKE A DECISION
SO DOES THIS ONE
BUT DOES THAT MEAN SHE'S FAIR?
A quick note about Libra before we talk about the woman that the Queen of Swords represents. Most people think of balance by the symbolic image of the scales, yes? But what we forget to keep in mind is that the scales are in motion! They are going back and forth most of the time and it is the lucky one with good timing that catches the Libra person at that one moment when the scales are perfectly balanced.
As usual with court cards, the Queen of Swords represents a person in your life, in this case a Libra women or other air sign woman, but can also represent a part of your own personality rising to the surface. It's all about the mental spinning of the wheels with these people. This card corresponds to water in air, symbolizing the creative, enduring, and elastic qualities of air as well as it's power of transference. She is the bright, rational image of inspiration and idea. She has the persistence to bring her ideas into manifestation. With a severity inherent to her nature, her characteristics are sharpness of thought and confident authority, but she can be malicious and deadly.
She never shows her emotional side but her judgment can sometimes be swayed by her heart. Because of this conflict, she is neither a good confidante nor a completely fair judge. Ironically, her negative side stems from her honesty and desire for the truth. Once she has a view of the situation, she lets everyone involved know her opinion and god help them if they disagree! Her sharp-as-a-razor mind will then begin to cut the perceived liars.
