Knight of Swordsfor Pisces
"Action isn't the question. What you do next is."
Six quick picks first, then your reading
A knight riding in full armour, as if scattering his enemies. A prototypical hero of romantic chivalry; he might almost be Galahad, whose sword is swift and sure because he is clean of heart. Swords represent thoughts and knights represent a hero or adventurer. Together the knight of swords represents resistance to lies and injustice. A valiant figure willing to fight for what they believe. They bring you hope in a time of darkness, that truth will prevail and all is not lost.
The knight helps us be brave and take immediate action. You are called to take a stand, especially in the written word. Be assertive and forward. In a romantic way, this card can mean someone is being very forward with you (or perhaps you will get a love letter confession soon). The knight can be a little overeager, but they are honest in their actions.
You are overly confident (or dealing with someone who is over confident). True confidence comes from a sense of your own ability and knowledge of your own limits. Be honest with your own short comings and do not fear them or over/understate them. Over confidence masks a deep sense of insecurity so beware of an extremely overconfident boss/lover/friend.

Knight of Swords for Pisces
The Dreamer
Pisces is a Water mutable sign ruled by Jupiter, whose natural subject is the unconscious, dissolution, retreat, what is hidden from the self. Swords are the air suit, so the Knight of Swords sits in Libra. Libra and Pisces are quincunx, two signs with nothing in common: no shared element, mode, or polarity. This card will not slot neatly into how Pisces already operates. What it wants is this: write the sentence down and stop rewriting it. It has to be done deliberately or it will not happen. Pisces is mutable: it adapts, and this card is about completion, which asks the one thing mutable signs resist, which is settling on a final form. The card and the sign pull in different directions, and the friction is the information. Upright, this is the element at full speed with nothing slowing it down.
