The 3 of Swords is not my favourite card in the tarot deck to get. Even the picture looks ominous. Remember an earlier post I did on the 3 of Swords.........
The heart is a symbol of affection, love and joy. It can also represent conscience, truth and courage.
Clouds are a symbol of 'clouded' vision or confusion. Clearing clouds could also indicate a revelation or epiphany. That sudden moment when all becomes clear. Notice the clouds clearing on the 3 of swords.
Taking these symbols into consideration, if the 3 of swords shows up in your reading it could be asking you:
What truths are you hiding from?
In this situation, am I being honest with the people I am close to?
Am I being honest with myself?
Can I learn any lessons from the pain I am feeling right now?
How do I see the problem clearly?
What is the heart of the problem?
The 3 of swords can indicate a time of:
loss
separation
sorrow
loss of balance
disharmony
disruption
heartbreak
betrayal
So, this is my card for the day. I'm hoping the clouds will disappear and all will become clear to me again. :)
