A three card spread can be used in many ways … past, present, future; desires, obstacles, aids; the high road, the low road, the middle path.
Draw three cards and keep an open heart.
YOU DREW THREE CARDS:
Swords: Defending. Self-defense and setting boundaries. Think of drawing a line in the sand with a sword point.
King: Controlling. Using force and authority to impose one’s will.
He sits in judgment, holding the unsheathed sign of his suit.

Reversed: Cruelty, perversity, barbarity, perfidy, evil intention.
Use your experiences of the past to guide your thinking. Be fair in making decisions that affect other people. Reversed: Lack of compassion can cause hurt to other people. Don’t be so strict that it borders on cruelty in your dealings with others. Don’t allow prejudice to cloud your vision.

It may betoken a wise man, a counselor full of helpful ideas; whatever rises from authority, military, and government concerns, law, judgment. Reversed: A man who can be cruel, barbarous, unjust. Caution in matters that may result in a ruinous lawsuit.
