"Deception isn't the question. What you do next is."
Six quick picks first, then your reading
A man in the act of carrying away five swords rapidly; the two others of the card remain stuck in the ground. Swords represent knowledge and seven represents trickery. Together this card represents a bit of a hair brained scheme.
Be careful, a trickster is at play. Perhaps romantically someone says exactly what you want to hear, but does not mean what they say in their heart. Perhaps you are tricking yourself into doing something that you know isn't aligned with your values. Either way, be honest with yourself about what you actually want and need; don't resort to tricks to get there.
Your plan is backfiring, you had a strategy and were executing on it, but it is just not working. You might have to be honest about your own shortcomings and see what you can do to change. People are not trying to hurt you, but your plan is not going as expected. Regroup and move forward with earnestness.

Seven of Swords for Pisces in Money and Wealth
The Dreamer
Swords are the air suit, so the Seven 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. Upright, the assessment is being made alone, which is where it is easiest to be wrong.
When reading about money through a Pisces lens, the Seven of Swords says that you feel like money is something you're afraid to look at directly, a problem you can solve by not thinking about it, and something tied to whether you deserve to take up space at all. This has either left you in financial chaos that someone else eventually rescues you from, or made you hoard quietly because scarcity feels like the only thing you can control. You have not looked at your full financial picture all at once, and the not-looking costs more than the looking would. The Pisces blind spot in it is the moment they have to stop being useful and admit they're drowning.
In practice that can look like reading the actual number, or a decision made on paper instead of in your head. Whatever form it takes, it is being weighed alone, where it is easiest to lie to yourself.
