From the Tarot of the Cat People, the King of Swords; from the Insectorum Divinorum, Butterfly:
You're going to come across people in your life who will say all the right words at all the right times. But in the end, it's always their actions you should judge them by.
― Nicholas Sparks
The King of Swords has an analytical mind and is known for being an impartial judge when there are disagreements. With his hand extended, he offers to hear each side's story, but he expects them to back up their words with evidence. He knows eloquent, persuasive speech can hide a heap of wrongdoing. Butterfly represents fragility and susceptibility. While charismatic folks might ping our alert meter, sometimes those who look and sound pitiful might fly under our radar. The King would remind us that questioning doubt that leads to investigation is a useful tool in either case.
