Two of Swords

indecisionstalemateavoidancedifficult choicesdenial

The Two of Swords is refusing to look at a decision you already know the answer to. Holding both options feels safer than choosing, but it is not — the discomfort just lasts longer. The blindfold has to come off.


Upright

The Two of Swords is refusing to look at a decision you already know the answer to. Holding both options feels safer than choosing, but it is not — the discomfort just lasts longer. The blindfold has to come off.

Reversed

Reversed, the decision is being made for you, or the thing you were avoiding is surfacing anyway. The deadlock is breaking. It will be uncomfortable, and it is still better than staying frozen.


In love

You are avoiding a conversation or a decision. Take the blindfold off and face what you already know.

At work

A work decision means choosing between two imperfect options. Get the information, then pick.

Not deciding is a decision. Take the blindfold off and choose.

Swords are air: thought, speech, conflict and the truth you have to say out loud.

In the app

Draw it in a spread, with a question.

A card on its own says less than a card in a position. Celestine lays it out and reads it with your chart.
