Upright

A hand grips a single sword through a crown, cutting straight up through cloud — a moment of sudden, sharp clarity. Upright, Ace of Swords is truth cutting through confusion, sometimes uncomfortably direct.

Reversed

Reversed: clarity that’s missed or ignored, or a truth used carelessly, as a weapon rather than a tool.
