Speak Out But Check Your Sources First

From the SKT Revelation, the Archangel Commander (King of Swords); from the Empty Cup Oracle, Telescope:

The Archangel Commander (King of Swords) encourages us to advocate for ourselves and others. It is a time for courage and confidence, to let our voice be heard. But before we start speaking out (especially for other people), the Telescope suggests we might want to step back and consider if we are seeing things clearly. Our discernment might be clouded by emotions, strong desires, or simply our opinions. Regardless of their strength, feelings and thoughts aren't necessarily a good judge of reality. Listening to other viewpoints - even if they oppose our own - may help fill in our blind spots. Better to speak from wisdom than have to print a retraction later. 

The weapon of the advocate is the sword of the soldier, not the dagger of the assassin.
