At the best of times, I have not liked the Swords, but I agree life has its swordish bits too without which life would not be Life.
PAGE OF SWORDS: to me this person, this guy, comes across as being somewhat effeminate and yet he thinks he is God's gift for looks and style. He has a style (albeit feminine) in the way he presents himself and holding that sword not in such a manly fashion (unlike the Knight). To me this guy is full of himself; he would only take compliments and probably never give any. His stance is one of: see me and admire me for my height, my hair flying off my head and my red boots. However, being of the Sword family and holding that sword upright, he could be nasty as well as with an element of strength somewhere within him. At first sight, he will come across - to me - all the above features that I spoke of, but somewhere within him he could surprise us with his charm and strength.
KNIGHT OF SWORDS: Now, he is the opposite of his fellow sword brother - the Page. He is impulsive, fast, not too intense and always on the go. He would be the first to jump off his seat to save the day, but his enthusiasm could be more of an unreasoned impulse rather than from his heart. The world needs people like the Knight of Swords but they could do turning to their Queen for advice and guidance. But, as he is the Knight, he will not do that and rely on his inner instincts which, at times, could bring him trouble and at other times good use to his surrounding. I can see this Knight as more masculine than his teenage brother. Because he is never sitting still, this could also signify to the querent travels and movement?
QUEEN OF SWORDS: Their mother, so to speak, has seen and done it all. She knows about the characteristics of both her sons - the Page and the Knight. She is strong, firm and confident. She guides those around her - the family - with a firm hand showing them to go forward in life. She is almost above the clouds but not conceited in her knowledge and experiences of life. She is a mother, but a wise and a strict one at that. She will be cruel to be kind, but never lose any of her motherly qualities deep inside her.
KING OF SWORDS: This is the male equivalent of the Queen. He is just, wise and strong. People will go to him for advice and to seek justice for their cause and he will give it to them. He is gown is not stylish nor is it of the best quality. He has seen his kingdom through hard times and wars and will rule with a firm hand and sword against oppressors. Because of his tough experiences in ruling his kingdom, this king will not give in to emotions easily. He will almost love with his brain than his heart; he will rule with his brain than his heart. Having said that, he is not a bad father, head of family nor king of his people. It wasnt easy for him to bring his family/kingdom to its current state and he is going to keep his strength and justice to keep it running smoothly.
