6 of Swords
Six of Swords
Upright
transition · moving on · calmer waters · leaving difficulty behind · passage
A ferryman moves a boat through turbulent waters toward calmer shores. The Six of Swords is the passage from difficulty to recovery — gradual, not dramatic. You are moving away from what was painful. The water ahead is smoother, though the journey is not yet complete.
Reversed
stuck · unwilling to move · returning to turbulence · delayed healing
Transition is being resisted or reversed. You keep returning to a troubled situation rather than completing the crossing. Grief or attachment is making the journey feel impossible. What needs to be left behind in order to reach the other shore?
