"Curiosity isn't the question. What you do next is."

Six quick picks first, then your reading

On the card

An active figure holds a sword upright in both hands, while in the act of swift walking. He is passing over rugged land, and about his way the clouds are collocated wildly. He is alert and lithe, looking this way and that, as if an expected enemy might appear at any moment. Swords represents thoughts and the page represents a messenger/message. Together the page of swords represents a message carried especially for you-- some wisdom you need to become a master of your own thoughts.

CuriosityRestlessnessNew IdeasCommunication

Take heed of people coming to you with new and exciting information-- a new curious student or a partner who makes you see the world with new eyes (or even a new perspective from within yourself). This new information will be super helpful and important for you as you go on your journey. Be open and receptive to new ideas and people

Reversed

Information and gossip are pulling you away from your goals. Keep your eye on the prize and don't forget to be honest and fair-- do not paint things to be different than they are, because you will be found out.

Page of Swords for Sagittarius in Self and Identity

The Seeker

Swords are the air suit, so the Page of Swords sits in Libra. Libra sextiles Sagittarius, which is help that has to be taken up rather than help that arrives. What it asks for is this: write the sentence down and stop rewriting it. Sagittarius is perfectly capable of that, which is exactly why not doing it needs a better excuse. Upright, this is someone at the start of the element: sincere, curious, not yet any good at it.

When reading about yourself through a Sagittarius lens, the Page of Swords says that you feel like you are someone who figures things out and moves forward, a person who does not get stuck, and someone who has to keep moving or the sadness catches up. This has either made you resourceful and adaptable or has left you running from yourself in a thousand different cities. You have been so focused on who you think you should be that you haven't checked in with who you actually are. The Sagittarius blind spot in it is the specific weight of a single commitment, the slowness of actually building something, the possibility that it might not be enough.

In practice that can look like a loop that finally breaks, or seeing your own pattern in writing. Whatever form it takes, it arrives as news, or as someone new and sincere.
