Two of Swords
Two of Swords indicates a clear decision point where one option is logically correct even if another is emotionally appealing. You may be unwilling to release the less suitable choice because of fear or personal preference, and your emotions are interfering with objective judgement. The card advises choosing the true and right option rather than following the heart in this instance, and warns that procrastination will only make things worse. Reversed, it signifies ignoring a problem, refusing to accept facts, or lying to yourself.
Keywords
Two of Swords
Divinatory meaning
You are facing a decision and you know which is the right choice ... and there is a "right" choice in this situation. However, you are unwilling to let go of the other option, perhaps out of fear or maybe because you simply would prefer the other. Also, your emotions are interfering. Sometimes leading with the heart is best, but this time, there is a logical reason. You know you have to choose it, no matter how much you want the other.
Advice
Procrastination will only make things worse. You can't put this off any longer. Do what you know is the true and right thing.
Reversed
Ignoring a problem, refusing to accept facts, lying to yourself.
Visual Description
A young figure kneels waist-deep in calm water, holding two crossed swords against their chest with eyes closed. A bright, full moon surrounded by swirling clouds and radiating light hangs low in the sky above them. Reeds and small plants rise from the water around the figure, and low, pastel clouds tint the horizon in pink and blue. The composition centers on the symmetrical X of the blades and the vertical reflection of moonlight on the water.
