Okay, so I’ve been diving deep into Tarot lately, and today I wanted to really focus on one card: the Page of Swords reversed. Specifically, I wanted to figure out what it means when you’re asking about someone’s feelings. I’ve been having some… confusing signals from someone, so I thought, why not let the cards offer some insight?
My Little Experiment
First, I cleared my space. I lit a candle (just a regular one, nothing fancy), put on some chill music, and shuffled my deck. I’ve been using the classic Rider-Waite deck, because it’s what I’m most familiar with. I held the deck in my hands, closed my eyes, and focused on the person I was thinking about, and the question: “How do they feel about me?”
I cut the deck, and then laid out a simple three-card spread. I’ve found that three cards are usually enough to get a good sense of things without being overwhelming. The Page of Swords popped up in the reversed position, right in the center. Oops!

Interpreting the Reversed Page of Swords
Now, I’m no expert, but I’ve been doing some studying. Here’s what I gathered about the Page of Swords reversed when it comes to feelings:
- Communication Breakdown: This was the big one. It suggested that there might be misunderstandings, miscommunications, or even a complete lack of communication between us. Maybe they’re holding back what they truly feel, or maybe I’m misinterpreting their actions.
- Immaturity or Indecisiveness: The Page of Swords, upright, is all about curiosity and new ideas. Reversed, it can suggest immaturity in handling emotions. They might not be ready to deal with their feelings, or they might be unsure of what they even are.
- Gossip or Deceit: This was a bit harsher. It could mean that there’s some kind of dishonesty going on, even if it’s unintentional. Maybe they’re not being entirely truthful with me – or even with themselves – about how they feel. Or… maybe someone else is stirring the pot.
- Hesitation and Overthinking: This felt likely. The reversed Page could be a sign that they’re overthinking things, getting caught up in their head instead of following their heart. This resonated, because, well, I do that all the time!
Putting It All Together
Based on my reading, the Page of Swords reversed wasn’t exactly painting a rosy picture. It didn’t necessarily mean they didn’t have feelings for me, but it definitely pointed to some roadblocks and challenges in the emotional department. There’s clearly some confusion and hesitation there.
Honestly? It made a weird amount of sense.
This experience definitely reminded me that Tarot isn’t about predicting the future. It’s more about reflecting on the present and gaining some clarity. I’m not going to jump to any conclusions, but it did give me some good food for thought. I am thinking to try to have a direct, honest conversation with this person, when it feels right. Wish me good luck!
