What does the Eight of Swords mean?
The Eight of Swords is about feeling trapped when, in truth, most of the trap is in your head.
UPRIGHT
- Restriction: You feel stuck, like every direction is blocked.
- Limiting beliefs: Your own fears hold you tighter than the situation does.
- Helplessness: You are waiting for rescue when you could simply walk.
REVERSED
- Freedom: You are realising the door was never locked.
- New perspective: Options you could not see before are appearing.
- Release: The fear that froze you is losing its grip.
