Princess of Swords

I call on you to live your truth

The Princess of Swords brandishes her sword artfully and precisely. Daring, she scales the heights, a true Spiderwoman. Her domain is high up above the city’s streets, running and leaping across rooftops. Boasting both an agile young body and clear penetrating mind, she is a fabulous fusion of super heroine and freedom fighter, a princess with an unquenchable thirst for truth. Her nimble mind, grasps and connects stimuli at lightening speed giving her an incredible outlook and ability, a searing intelligence able to penetrate any circumstance, any drama. She can root out inconsistencies and delivering a powerful argument.

Emotions don’t get in her way as she almost marvels at the quickness of her own mind to instantly read a given situation, assimilating many facets; contrasting, comparing, synthesizing and evaluating possible solutions. It is almost a sport for her.

Equally, an avid raconteur, with beautiful speaking voice and a wry wit, she draws out dilemmas, philosophies and wisdom in her storytelling appearing beyond her years.

Her home is unashamedly in the sky, perched on the roofs of skyscrapers like some exotic creature out of a scene from Blade Runner. Ridley Scott’s great sci-fi epic which visually inspired a generation, is married with the animation of Ghost in the Shell, a Japanese Manga science fiction comic book.

Her mind soars freely in the sky, rising and gliding like a bird on the warm vertical currents of air giving her a unique and calm perspective. Up high she can see there are many other vistas to explore. She won’t hesitate to sharpen and test her sword on the most challenging of these. Inherently hard working, principled and knowledgeable, she will pitch her wits in the fight for equality and justice for all.

You could be mistaken for thinking this Princess will indeed change something profound about the world. If only it were that simple. Those ideals so beautifully articulated could easily remain in the mental realm and not actually be grounded in reality.

The Princess of Swords indicates the brilliance of the mind is at your side, an agile advocate for cutting away any obstacles as you scale the heights to success. You may be being called to review the set of principles and assumptions you are living by. Those high ideals you are pursuing or once believed in. Life is a great journey filled with setbacks, wrong turns and dead ends.

You are being called to be an intrepid explorer, to question assumptions, values and ideals. What is the purpose of your life? Why are you here? What do you want? How might you navigate the difficulties, the inequalities and the dazzling array of opportunities to realize the best of your potential? What do you think is possible from the very best of human existence? The time is ripe for a philosophical re-examination of the “meaning” of life and a re-acquaintance with some of the most remarkable thinkers and philosophers of our time. You are ready to begin walking your talk.
