Draw it in the drawing room →Upright
Carrying five swords out of camp in silence, leaving two behind. The card asks plainly: clever self-reliance, or deceit? Conscience is the only scale.
Reversed
The trick is about to show — or you are lying to yourself that this way is fine. Straight is cheaper now than later.
Love
Something is hidden behind your back — a lie, an unspoken feeling, or a third party stirring trouble. Don't jump to conclusions, but don't look away. Reversed: the mask is slipping, or you're tired of performing — drop the game, say it straight.
Career & money
Someone may be lifting your ideas or talking behind your back — stay alert, double-check papers and money. Reversed: the scheme is about to surface, yours included; shortcuts won't hold — go back to the drawing board and take the straight road.
