THE FIVE OF SWORDS REVERSED
The Five of Swords reversed can often show up
when the asker is having trouble moving on from
someone in their life, or feel they are in a neverending power struggle. This card indicates a
desire for closure, and the opportunity to finally
make peace or put the situation behind them.
We may decide to walk away feeling defeated
or as though we lost something; but know that
sometimes, making a decision to release anger or
bitterness is a triumph in and of itself.
This card can also show up when the asker is
feeling unfocused in their energy, or are not
making progress on a project despite their
constant efforts. The asker is encouraged to be
patient with themselves and focus on taking
small, consistent steps in the direction they are
hoping to go toward.
