    Knight of Swords

    Tīvra (तीव्र)

    Intense, Violent

    Knight of Swords. Intellectual conviction charges forward—the horse at full speed, sword extended. But are you pursuing truth or destroying with ideas? This is mental center working violently, without balance from emotion or body. Logos without eros becomes destructive. Ideas pursued with such force destroy what they touch. Examine your charge.
