General Meaning
If you find yourself at crossroads, there may be a need to create a sense of balance between two or more opposing forces in your life. Generally, when this card shows up, we are experiencing some sort of difficulty in making a concrete plan or in finding the solution to a problem. Perhaps we feel numb or that we are still in the dark about something, and we cannot see what is unraveling before us. It is time to acknowledge the situation head-on so that you may process what you have been avoiding.
Overcoming Fear
Do not fear the potential outcomes, as fear will only hold you back from uncovering a positive outcome. Summon the courage to trust in yourself, and your path will become clear. Once you are able to make a choice, your confidence and strength will soar to new heights.
Reversed
When reversed, the Two of Swords may be an indication of some kind of self-delusion or illusory mindset that prevents you from embracing the intentions of your heart - as if you are blind to the truth. This card can also express feelings of being overwhelmed by options or ideas. If you find yourself stuck in the middle of a quarrel or argument, it may be a good idea to remove yourself quietly in order to find a way to release the negative energies or attachments. It is time to do what is solely right for you.
