THREE OF SWORDS - Thorns

Keywords: Pain, hurt

A thicket of thorns represents torment, pain, and injury. Thorns are not a specific plant but rather refer to shrubs with sharp spines. They entwine and prick, symbolizing an inescapable predicament. In the Three of Swords, a bird has lost its ability to fly, trapped by the thorns, yet it clings tightly to a treasured ruby in its beak—a symbol of something profoundly important to its heart, inspired by The Happy Prince.
