Keywords: A child, a message requiring thought.
During medieval times the Pages at Court were young children. For this reason, all the Pages of the Minor Arcana can represent children in a reading. As in the Knight of Swords card, there is activity shown in the background, in the trees and clouds behind the Page. As Swords represent the thinking process and the Page represents a message, this card means "a message requiring thought". The Page has his head turned away from the Sword--the message has been delivered, now some thought about it must take place.
