All of the Aces from the traditional Rider/Waite/Smith deck depict a hand coming out of a cloud which holds the symbol of the suit. In the Ace of Swords, the sword is encircled by a crown with olive and laurel branches hanging down from it. Six golden yods of divine energy float around the sword. The ace represents mental activity and the discipline needed to find the truth in any issue. The One of Air from Today’s Journey Tarot shows sea oats on a New England coastline blowing in the wind. Our thoughts race through our minds and it is up to us to discern what is true for us.
