The Seven of Swords tarot card stands for trickery, theft, and dishonesty. You or someone around you might be using deceitful tactics to achieve a goal. The intention of these actions is deliberate and they are done without thought of how it will affect other people.
Born Elizabeth Jessie Hunt in 1890, in NSW, Jessie’s mother sold her to a travelling circus when she was just eight.
By the age of 17, Jessie was a champion rough rider and ring mistress of Martini’s Buck Jumping Show.
Leaving the circus, in 1913 a pregnant Jessie waved Ben Hickman off to war. Shortly afterwards Jessie gave their son to a friend to raise and headed to Sydney for a life of crime.
Jessie stole cattle, pinched clothing and dodged the police.
Unfortunately for her, she wasn’t always fast enough.
By 1916 she had served two terms in Long Bay Goal and was charged again in 1918.
