Tarot Tuesday: Two of Swords

Hope you've been enjoying Tarot Tuesday and thank you for returning for another week.

The Card:

Two of Swords

Twos mean conflict or balance; choices; relationships
Swords often represent mental compatibility, thinking, intellect, or conflict
In a deck of playing cards, the suit of Swords would be similar to the suit of Spades

Meaning (Upright):

head in the sand; not wanting to face your problems/troubles -- this can be dangerous; intuition unclear; may need to take actions; unable to resolve conflict; conflict on multiple levels; unsure what to do; indecision; need new approach; emotions involved and make it difficult to decide.

Meaning (Reversed):

unaware of problems/troubles and don't want to face them; not as hopeless as it appears; not using intuition or trusting "gut"; focus is on physical not mental -- afraid of new information/knowledge; hidden enemies at work; can make decisions, but use care; things moving quickly; give self time to think before committing; don't talk until you're sure you're dealing with the right person; be sure before you decide.

If the Two of Swords appears in your reading...

Beware if you get the two of swords in a reading. Take a close look at the situation or the question you're asking about, you could be intentionally ignoring what's right in front of you. This card may be telling you to pay attention, quit waiting and take the action necessary.

Extra:

Three twos mean you need to organize or get organized

Four twos mean this is a traumatic period in your life

Here's the disclaimer: I have to stress, I am not an expert in the Tarot and I use them for myself and friends (and my characters) to help answer questions about situations and the future.

Thanks for stopping by! Have a great day.
