Ace of Swords
Upright
Breakthroughs, new ideas, mental clarity, success
The Ace of Swords signals a ripple of new energy from the mental realms. You may be on the edge of an important discovery or a new way of thinking that enables you to view the world with fresh eyes. Or, you may have a sudden understanding of a problem that has been troubling you and you can view the route ahead. Meditate daily to clean away the mind chatter and gain the most of this mental potential.
See this card as a sign of hope. It states your mind is expanding. You are open to welcoming new ideas. You grow on new ideas, motivation, and vision, and you are excited to track new possibilities that draw upon your creative abilities.
When the Ace of Swords shows up in a Tarot reading, it says you that now is a great time to start a new project. As an Ace, you are at the start of the journey, but you can feel the energy rising up and can’t wait to get started. If you direct this energy into the right movements, then you will succeed in your endeavors.
As with all Swords cards, the Ace of Swords expresses power; but the sword is double-edged, meaning that it can build and finish. The message is obvious: with authority comes responsibility. You will need a powerful heart and mind and use your power for the help of others and yourself.
The Ace of Swords also helps you to track the truth of the circumstance and to find equity. You have great transparency on the circumstance and can now defend your point of view.
Reversed
Inner clarity, re-thinking an idea, clouded judgement
The Ace of Swords reversed symbolizes that a new idea is arising from within you, but you are not ready to share it with people. You may still be searching what this idea means for you and how to best manifest it in the outside world. You may also seek more transparency about whether this is a plan you wish to pursue more. When this card shows up in a Tarot reading, it’s essential to give yourself time and space and free your mind.
At times, the reversed Ace of Swords can be a sign you have an idea that’s not coming to success in the form you had expected, and it’s time to go back to the starting point. You may still be tracking an idea that no longer has any sense for you. This card asks you to use more time on describing in common terms what it is you need. Concentrate on the basics and do some better preparation. Be certain about your ambitions and purposes.
The reversed Ace of Swords can also imply blurred judgment and a lack of rational certainty around a particular situation. You are missing important information that will benefit you decide, so spend your time and energy into endeavoring out the facts.
Two Of Cups
Upright
Unified love, partnership, mutual attraction
If the Ace of Cups symbolizes the love from within, the Two of Cups is the love between two souls. With this card, you are creating deep connections, based on shared preferences, kindness, and absolute love. While these connections are still in the initial steps, they have the potential to grow into something deeply satisfying and rewarding. You have shared respect for one another, and you reach essential planes of knowledge and understanding.
When the Two of Cups card shows up in a Tarot reading, you may enter a new relationship, perhaps with a lover, friend or co-worker. You are both concentrated on creating a mutually helpful relationship.
In a romantic relationship, the Two of Cups shows a new union based on common attraction. There is both a bodily and spirit connection that leaves you dizzy and shaky at the knees. You bring out the best in each other and raise each other to even greater levels of potential. The transfer of emotion is deep, and you are both willing to do whatever it takes to hold one another. In some cases, the Two of Cups can point to marriage or engagement.
In a career reading, the Two of Cups is a symbol you are both on the same wavelength and share a similar vision with your business partner. A business like this – built on trust and mutual respect – is likely to win so long as you proceed to interact with one another and focus on your shared association.
Reversed
Self-love, break-ups, disharmony, distrust
The reversed Two of Cups is about love for yourself. When you love yourself completely, you welcome a life of happiness because you believe you deserve it. When you come from this point of self-love, you will have more fulfilling connections with other people.
Here is the shadow side of the reversed Two of Cups. Before you seek out your Prince Charming or tie the bond with your forever love, make sure you’ve fulfilled your cup with all that love liquid for yourself first. To find satisfaction in your relationships, find the love within you. No other soul, property, or success can do it for you.
The reversed Two of Cups can sometimes indicate a break-up. You are out of harmony with each other and don‘t experience the same loving connection you did in the past. Communication may be limited or delayed, and the energy flow between you extinguished. To change this situation, open up and share, and maintain a safe area for one another to express your feelings.
Hermit
Upright
Soul-searching, introspection, being alone, inner guidance
When The Hermit card appears it is time for drawing your energy and attention inward and finding the answers deep within your soul by taking a break from everyday life. You understand that your most intense sense of truth and the most valuable knowledge is within yourself. You leave behind the earthly issues to set off on a spiritual journey. Now is the perfect time to go to a place where you can get closer to your authentic self and observe personal purposes and principles.
The Hermit calls you to go into your inner world and encounter a deep sense of solitude and meditation. When you allow yourself to harmonize into your inner light, you will discover the answers you need inside your heart and become wiser. Find the light shining in your soul and you can create your unique path now.
The Hermit often arrives when you are at a crucial period in your life and considering a new direction. After looking at your soul with a deeper, more spiritual understanding, your priorities could shift as a consequence.
Finally, the Hermit may be shown in your life as a spiritual teacher to help you raise your vibration and develop your consciousness. He will guide you on finding your answers and solutions within you.
Reversed
Isolation, loneliness, withdrawal
The reversed Hermit can show one of two situations: you are not taking enough time for personal observation, or you are taking too much. The Reversed Hermit encourages you to create more space to meditate and spend time with yourself if you struggle to know your spirituality. It may be time to go inward and rediscover your greater mission on this planet. You may have been so busy dealing with the daily concerns. So you have forgotten to listen to your inner sound.
If you have already been spending a lot of time contemplating on your inner world, then the reversed Hermit may urge that you may be taking this isolation thing too far. Are you literally becoming a hermit and cutting yourself off from the external world? Do not underestimate the importance of staying united with other people, even while you are going through your spiritual journey.
