The distinctive feature of the Page of Swords is that it serves as a kind of sign, an indicator of readiness to manifest action, will, thought, information THROUGH SUBORDINATION.

Usually, in addition to showing the presence of a willingness to obey, the Page of Swords also indicates who is obeying whom.

.

A "reversed" Page of Swords usually indicates resistance to subordination.

For example, a threatening, defiant pose, brazen anti-social behavior, words, actions, the "stars on the knees" tattoo[407 - "Stars on the knees" is a fairly common Russian prison tattoo. The gist of the tattoo is that its owner "will not kneel before anyone." The tattoo dates back to antiquity and has deep historical roots.].

.

In addition, there are also false Pages of Swords.

They are frequently used to demonstrate the readiness of someone who, in fact, is not ready.

For example, affected, stagy gestures and poses copied from somewhere.

.

Fig. 3.11.9 False Page of Swords – a staged pose intended to intimidate a potential opponent. Such a pose may well be struck by someone who has never, in fact, participated in sports training and competitions. Please, note the "sinister" background in the photo – a very common NLP technique[408 - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Neuro-linguistic_programming (https://ru.wikipedia.org/wiki/%D0%9D%D0%B5%D0%B9%D1%80%D0%BE%D0%BB%D0%B8%D0%BD%D0%B3%D0%B2%D0%B8%D1%81%D1%82%D0%B8%D1%87%D0%B5%D1%81%D0%BA%D0%BE%D0%B5_%D0%BF%D1%80%D0%BE%D0%B3%D1%80%D0%B0%D0%BC%D0%BC%D0%B8%D1%80%D0%BE%D0%B2%D0%B0%D0%BD%D0%B8%D0%B5)]. The photo's implicit message – "The Demons of Darkness are ready to tear anyone apart and win!".

The actual information one can deduce from the photo – the second participant from the left has suffered an injury. Apparently, his left leg is hurt. And the player in the center is psychologically unwilling to interact with his teammates on an equal footing.

.

False Pages of Swords are ubiquitous in our world of fakes, lies, and deception[409 - The whole ideology of advertising, marketing, suggestion, manipulation is based on the conscious or unconscious use of symbolism, stereotypes, and subconscious thought patterns. Meanwhile, archetypes associated with the Page of a particular suit are a very popular tool. Thus, the harmless ladybug is colored bright red, like most poisonous insects. And a truly dangerous predator disguises itself as harmless leaf or grass.].

Some pilots are undergoing an annual medical examination.

One pilot enters the doctor's office, undresses, and his whole back is covered in blisters and calluses.

– What's that? – the doctor asks.

– Well, you know… I work in transport aviation. I have to help load and unload the plane. I lug around all sorts of stuff on my back. So, I got blistered.

– Alright… Fit to go.

Another pilot comes in, undresses, and he has a huge callus on his butt.
