Four of Swords
The Four of Swords symbolizes the need for a break or retreat to reassess and rejuvenate one's mind, body, and spirit. It reminds us to understand the difference between constructive rest and being stuck in inertia. Depending on its position, it could either suggest taking a break to refresh one's spirit or indicate being stuck in a rut, avoiding necessary decisions or actions. It challenges the individual to discern whether it's time for rest or a wake-up call.

Rest and Retreat
Every one of us occasionally needs to escape from the world and take a break, to catch our breath and rethink everything. The secret is to remember the difference between the minimum amount of actions, which is essentially constructive and useful, and situations when we get stuck, like a cartoon in slow motion.
Interpretation
Consider: depending on the card's position in a spread, it might advise to rest and refresh the spirit, allowing oneself the time and space for the body, mind, and soul to recuperate. Alternatively, it could suggest that you are stuck in a habitual rut, spinning your wheels ineffectively while it's time to start taking action. Are you tired or overwhelmed? Are you running from difficult decisions or avoiding decisive actions? Perhaps someone is holding you back or someone else's inaction adversely affects your circumstances? This card indicates that the person is stuck and unwilling to change.
