Mystic Dreamer Tarot
FOUR OF SWORDS
Beneath a lavish stained glass window a woman rests with her arms crossed over her chest. Four swords hang on the walls around her, representing the problem or problems that surround her. The situation still exists but she has, for the moment' removed herself to a quiet' peaceful state of being.
This card suggests that you have situations, troubles, or problems that need resolution. However, this is not the time to deal with them head on. Rather, it is a time to take yourself away, calm down, and heal a bit, so that you can approach your issues refreshed. Quiet, peaceful reflection and meditation will bring clear insight so that you can handle the situation to your benefit.
If reversed, this card indicates a willful and unproductive ignoring of a situation. There is no refreshment, no insight. Instead there is either denial or useless obsessing.
Use your intuition
- The window above the woman depicts the story of the shepherd finding a lost lamb. How does this play into the meaning of the card?
- One sword is hanging upside down. What does this signify?
