Today I am using the Book of Shadows Tarot: So Below. This deck is from Llewellyn Publishing. www.llewellyn.com
5 of Swords
Our society encourages intense competition on many levels and arenas of life. Even for those who "win" there can be conflicted feelings, hurt egos and such. You will find mixed reactions in competitive situations mainly involving the mind, ideas and communications.
King of Swords
This king skillfully plans so that the group achieves greatness and individuals can shine. He is the master of ideas, mental things and communications.
The Devil
No matter how appealing or pretty a thing is, if it controls your will, binds you to an outcome, it is not worth it. Even all these sugary treats can be a downfall if you constantly indulge in them. This is all about a choice, an action or situation that is not in your best interest at the present moment.
My Take...
You are in some sort of competition with others are things that are all mental, in your head. Ideas and whatnot. And this is going to bring you closer to mastery of individual greatness but don't let the competition fool you. It may feel good to win now, but when all you think about is winning and getting ahead, it sucks all the fun out of life. If it gets this far, you should probably set aside this issue and move on to something else more inspiring in your life.
