Reversed

Upright meaning

Reversed meaning

Haste, impulsiveness, a hot temper, or enthusiasm that burns out fast. Acting without a plan may do more harm than good.

Love and relationships

Passion, adventure, someone bold and full of energy. Reversed: inconstancy, someone who catches fire quickly and goes out just as fast.

Work and money

Bold decisions, change, a move, a daring step. Reversed: rash choices, lack of persistence.

The card's advice

Act boldly, but know where you're heading.
