Six of Swords
Upright
The upright Six of Swords represents a transitional phase in life—moving from difficulty, confusion, or instability toward a more stable and positive direction. It emphasizes inner healing and recovery. Although the past may have been full of challenges, you are now in a calmer mental state. This card also hints at a literal or spiritual journey, a transition in mindset toward something new and more promising.
Reversed
The reversed Six of Swords may suggest avoidance or delay in addressing current difficulties, or a failure to confront problems and seek long-term solutions. It could indicate encountering setbacks during the process of transition, making change more complex or painful than expected. Although you may be trying to move forward, unresolved emotional issues or past problems still affect you, hindering your progress.
