Radiant: Rider-Waite-Smith Tarot-Page of Swords

The Rider-Waite-Smith Tarot Deck holds to the oath bound medieval model, and thus is rather mundane in its depiction. A rather effeminate page is shown "swishing" his/her sword about in a cloudy sky, with the wind blowing clouds, hair and trees. The Element of Air represents consciousness and the clouds being blown across the sky represent Emotions or Moods. Thus, the Rider-Waite card concentrates on the Mood fighter characteristics of this card. The yellow tights also imply the element of air, as yellow is the official color of elemental air. In more modern tarot decks, like the Thoth Tarot Deck, there are no Pages, instead there are Princesses. This is because of the Occult Knowledge of YHVH (Tetragrammaton). But you'll have to go to my nontraditional tarot blogs of the Thoth Tarot-Princess of Swords @ elitarotstrickingly.com to investigate this.

The Modern Witch Tarot-Page of Swords

The Rider-Waite-Card, the Page of Swords and the Modern Witch Tarot- Page of Swords, Pages are both facing away from the reader implying a mood. Here the stormy clouds of mood are also shown with the sword presented in fighting position, representative of the Element of Air--- which the swords represent. The Page is standing on the high ground, as overseeing is also an implication of this card. The Modern Witch Page of swords is dressed in a combination of colors whereas, the Rider-Waite-Smith person is predominantly dressed in yellow, the color used for this Pythagorean Universal Air Element.

The Modern Witch Tarot- Page of Swords

The depiction of the Modern Witch Tarot-Page of Swords, is a young woman full of wild energy who is relentless in her drive and doesn't sit still for long. Being an idealist, she can be a little exhausting as she often is out *"windmill tilting" (see below). If the page of swords, is your personality core (see tarot birth wheel) go ahead and dive head first into wild schemes and plans, and find those who will support you in doing so.

  • *
  • Don Quixote

    • According to 2 sources

    The expression 'tilting at windmills' derives from Cervantes' Don Quixote - first published in 1604, under the title The Ingenious Knight of La Mancha. The novel recounts the exploits of would-be knight 'Don Quixote' and his loyal servant Sancho Panza who propose to fight injustice through chivalry.

Surlily, some people will complain about her projected arrogance, and toughness, but this is a protective mask. She is actually a vulnerable and sensitive woman who cannot allow an adversary to know what she is thinking.

When the Page of Swords is thrown in a Divination it implies:

  • Authority.
  • Overseeing.
  • Secret service.
  • Vigilance.
  • Spying. 
  • Examination.
  • Active youth.

When the Page of Swords is reversed, it implies:

  • A more evil side of the above qualities.
  • What is unforeseen.
  • An unprepared state.
  • Sickness is also intimated.
  • Arrogance.
