Ah,
the tool of the visionary.... She's been to the top of the mountain
and has seen the lay of the land. The sword will cut away any fluffy
nonsense, because she's interested in ideas that bring fruit (as shown
on the branches). The sword pierces the center of the crown, implying
that these ideas came from a source other than ego (crown chakra). The
sword is held in the right hand, indicating the active masculine side;
she'll need this quality to bring these ideas down to earth to make them
practical.

From the Beasts of Albion, the "Spider:"
This
particular spider has a mark on its back that looks very much like a
sword. She is the physical representation of ideas - she weaves the web
to create what her inspiration imagined. There is a spider web across
two bushes in front of the gate I use before dawn every morning, when I
take out the trash. In the dark, I can never see it, but I feel it on
my face when I pass through it. The spider reweaves it every day - my
morning intrusion and damage doesn't seem to deter her a bit. Sometimes
weaving those ideas into reality require us to be quite persistent...
