Symbolism
The Witch God is crowned with two mighty horns, representing the balance of the Universe. They are the Horns of Power and Enlightenment. Here a witch is covering his face while putting on the horned crown to gain prophetic powers to know the future. Through trance, he becomes the Goat God, locking horns with the obstacles in his way. He stands in the waters of intuition with no signs of land around. We also see the Masonic Square and Compass hidden in the card, teaching us to live by the Square, our worldly material actions, and remember the immortality of the soul so that the results of our actions must benefit both body and soul.
Divinatory Meaning (Invoked)
Like the goat, when the Two of Blades is invoked, you may be butting heads with those around you, locked in a place of stalemate where solutions aren’t coming to fruition. This stalemate may also be coming from a place of avoidance: “out of sight, out of mind.” But that is going to prolong the situation and not solve anything. You may find yourself faced with difficult decisions and it is best to ask yourself, “Will this decision benefit my body and spirit? Will it bring me into harmony and balance?” Weigh the options: one is going to feel right and that is the one to go with.
Divinatory Meaning (Banished)
Imagine the calm pool of intuition turning into treacherous waves of emotion and information that throw you out of balance. Banishing the Two of Blades is exactly that. Do not let your spiritual peace and clarity be upset by focusing on too many details. Take care to avoid people who like gossip and “witch warring.” They will prove to be disloyal, sowing the seed of confusion. Release yourself of their burden and remember you are in control of the problems in which you choose to involve yourself.
