The Seven of Swords here warns against the blind desire to do everything alone.

When we do this, we risk getting in over our heads and end up with more trouble than we expected.

Most people think of the Seven of Swords as “the thief card” but this card is also about being the “lone wolf” and as well as recklessness.

Look at this particular card closely. See how she is completely alone watering the garden and totally unaware of the thorny vine that is wrapping around her? How can she not know that her dress is being torn in the process?

This is why having true, supportive friends in our lives is important. Don’t push these people away from you. Keep them close and nurture these relationships.
