As feelings, upright

Cool and controlled, perhaps too much so. This person may be analysing their feelings for you instead of having them, or holding back affection to keep the upper hand. Criticism may stand in for closeness. Underneath the logic there is often more feeling than they let show.
What it says about love
Reason and fairness in a relationship: hard decisions made with a level head, a partner who thinks before speaking, or your own clarity about what is right. Lead with judgement, warmed by care.
The person behind the feelings
Fair, rational and quietly authoritative, this is someone people turn to for a sound judgement. They think before speaking, decide on the evidence, and hold themselves to high standards. They may seem reserved, but their word tends to be reliable.
Feelings it can stir in you
Upright, King of Swords is about reason, authority and fair judgement; reversed, about rigidity, misuse of power and cold logic. If the question is how you feel, read it as a mirror rather than a verdict.
