With a dual dose of the air element, the Prince of Swords is the purest expression of the element within the court cards. He finds pleasure in debates, for he is talented with language and he finds them intellectually stimulating. He is one that loves to argue for the sake of it, as a form of exercise even. He is gifted with a wonderful mind, but so full of ideas and thoughts that they threaten to confuse and distort each other. His thoughts go in every direction, sometimes so quickly that he forgets what he was thinking about a few seconds ago. His ideas lack practicality, making them difficult to execute. Because he lacks the other elements, he can be quite a cunning liar and a trickster, sometimes tricking himself.
