Seven of Cups, Reversed

Sometimes we're confronted with choices - some are clear while others are not.  There may be other choices that have yet to appear.  Patience, consideration, and possibly consultation may be needed to help you make a decision.  Do not rush t decision, be patient and observant today.

Knight of Swords, reversed

The Knight of Swords shows an armored soldier with sword drawn and heading into a fight.  We can also see a strong headwind blowing him in his face, as seen by the swayed trees and fast moving clouds.  This is someone taking a challenge head on or who could be quick tempered and causing a raucous without having all of the facts.

In the reversed position, however, the opposite meaning would hold true - patience and levelheadedness should prevail.  Analyze all of the facts before rushing into judgement, there could be obvious details that might be missed by making a quick or rash judgement.  Take a few steps back or leave the situation for a moment or a day then come back and look at things from a refreshed prospective, you just might find that what was assumed may not be what is.

Temperance

Temperance is a card that shows an arch angel combining the contents of two separate cups into one, a union is taking place.  Another common meaning this card has is bringing things into balance.  In either case, sometimes in life we need the opportunity to experience something new - this gives depth to our life and a new set of circumstances to relate to, hopefully for the better.

The plants near the waters edge represent vitality and growth.

The path leading from the waters edge to the mountains represent the path of life each of us travels. We grow as people, learn from experience, and take on new challenges.

I think this card also represents intuition.  The circle on the archangels forehead is like a third eye.  Skill and experience are needed when trying to commingle to different individuals or parties to come to a common ground or understanding.  Wisdom, still, and finesse are required to achieve a positive resolution.
