Four of Swords Meaning
The Four of Swords points to a lingering or internalized stress that is still unresolved, quietly waiting for closure or relief. If you have been experiencing any setbacks or difficulties, take a moment to reflect on the issues at hand. You may need this time to recuperate and revitalize yourself in order to face any potential challenges that may return. This gentle pause could offer you a fresh perspective, and allow you to process the experience without feeling too pressured or rushed. Give yourself this time to recover and prepare yourself mentally for the journey ahead. After this, you may feel clearer about how things will ultimately unfold, once you have a better sense of how to gauge your efforts. A wonderful time for introspection and self-exploration. Trust the wisdom of your inner-voice - its logic will help guide you forward.
Reversed Meaning
This key can point to feelings of instability, or being overburdened by responsibilities or choices. Perhaps there is a need for a healthier route that will allow you to form a much clearer path for your strides. Have your dreams been hypothetical, or have you taken the smaller steps to manifest them? There may be a need to acknowledge certain negative energies in your life that are blocking your progress or momentum.
