Knight of Swords
Suit of Swords
All gallop, aim later.
The Knight of Swords is the rapid mind, charging forward, decisive, fast. He rides at full gallop, sword raised, with no patience for hesitation. The Knight is the energy of acting on conviction before doubt can catch you.

Reversed, the Knight of Swords is recklessness: moving fast on incomplete information, or bulldozing where finesse was needed. The card reversed asks if you're galloping toward something or away from sitting still.
It can also indicate stalled momentum, getting in your own head when you needed to just go. The Knight reversed says: start.
