Sure Eddie, you made a lot of sense, as so did belenciaga and rcb30872. I don't know, but I'm getting to the conclusion that X's feelings are strong and stormy, passionate to an extreme, and X's feelings are pretty much influenced by it's mind, maybe thinking a lot about the other person?
Not quite. The card isn't in the position of "What does this person think about X" or "how will this person act toward X" or even "How does this person feel toward X?"--which could be anything, love, hate, disinterest, mental curiosity.... It's about ROMANTIC feelings, so the question really is "What are this person's romantic feelings about X?" Are they very romantic, not romantic at all, passionately romantic, coolly romantic...?
This card's position is a dial, a gauge of romantic interest. 1 to 78 (cards) how and what type of ROMANTIC interest does Y have in X?
Knight/Swords indicates cool, calculating, changeable and impatient romantic feelings--they're not passionate, they're not loving, they're not, perhaps, even sexual. These aren't necessarily unfavorable, but unless X and Y are already involved as a couple, I'd guess that this person doesn't have strong romantic emotions toward X. Y might feel other things toward X--friendship perhaps--but we'd need to see another card answering the question "What DOES Y feel toward X?" to answer that. This position is JUST Romantic Feelings. See?
Putting it another way, if you're reading about someone who you're interested in, wanting to know if they have a spark of romantic feeling about you, that they don't see you as "a friend"--then I'd say that you didn't get the most positive response. You asked the cards, "Does he like me?" and they said, "He only likes to talk to you." It looks like this person is more in love with having conversations with you than he is "in love" with you.
It's all in that "romantic feelings" position. On the other side you've got 2/Cups, so "X's" romantic feelings for Y are much more "romantic." X can't keep their eyes off Y. They're a bit besotted.
