Okay, so I’ve been messing around with tarot cards lately, just for fun, you know? And I got this Three of Swords card, but it was upside down. I was trying to do a simple “yes or no” reading, and I was like, “What does this even mean?”
First, I grabbed my deck and shuffled it real good while thinking about my question. I won’t bore you with the details of the question, let’s just say it was about a personal thing. After shuffling, I cut the deck into three piles and then put them back together. Then I started flipping cards from the top.
I was looking for that darn Three of Swords. Found it, but yeah, it was reversed. Now, I’m no tarot expert, but I’ve read a bit about this stuff. Usually, this card is all doom and gloom, heartbreak, sadness, all that jazz. But flipped? It’s different.
So I went online, browsed some forums, and read a few articles. Found out that a reversed Three of Swords can mean a bunch of things. Some people said it means you’re getting over some old hurt. Others said it could mean you’re holding onto pain and not letting go. I decided to focus on what most people agreed on.
The consensus seemed to be that, in a “yes or no” situation, a reversed Three of Swords is kind of a mixed bag. It’s not a clear “yes,” but it’s not a definite “no” either. They were all saying the same thing, it’s more like, “It’s getting better, but it’s not there yet.”
- If it’s about love, it’s like saying, “Yeah, you’re healing, but you’re not ready to jump back in.”
- For other stuff, it might mean, “Things are improving, but there’s still work to do.”
Based on all that, I decided to take the card as a “not yet.” It wasn’t the “yes” I was hoping for, but it wasn’t a total “no” either. It felt right, given what I was asking about.
My Conclusion
So, I concluded that my reversed Three of Swords was telling me to be patient. Things are moving in the right direction, but it’s gonna take some time. I put the card back in the deck, feeling a bit more at peace with the whole situation. It’s not the answer I wanted, but it’s an answer I can work with. It made me realize that I have got to take things one step at a time and not rush the process. If my little tarot experiment taught me something is that sometimes, the “not yet” answers can be just as valuable as a straight-up “yes.”
