King of Swords
The King of Swords decides on principle rather than on how he feels that day. He holds a high standard and applies it to himself first. This is authority that comes from judgement, not from volume.

Reversed, the authority turns into control — rules bent to suit, or intelligence used to manage people rather than to be fair. Power without ethics is just pressure. Check that yours is serving the decision, not your ego.
Bring fairness and clear thinking into the decision. Sometimes the head has to steer for a while.
You are being asked to lead straight and to hold a standard. Set it high and meet it yourself first.
Swords are air: thought, speech, conflict and the truth you have to say out loud.
Draw it in a spread, with a question.
A card on its own says less than a card in a position. Celestine lays it out and reads it with your chart.
