Choosing not to see; leaving a decision between two options hanging.
Two of Swords upright
Choosing not to see; leaving a decision between two options hanging. Swords belong to air: thought, words and conflict. A Swords card points at a decision or a story you are telling yourself.
Two of Swords reversed
The blindfold comes off; you see what you've been avoiding.
A reversed card is not automatically bad news. It can mean the upright meaning is weaker, turned inward, or flipped; the cards around it tell you which.
In love and relationships
Putting off a decision; stuck between two people or two options.
Work and money
The decision is on hold because information is missing; no choice is being made for now.
Advice
Not deciding is also a decision, and usually the most expensive one. You tied that blindfold yourself. Set a date, and on that day choose with whatever information you have.
Is Two of Swords yes or no?
Maybe. This card does not give a clean yes or no. The answer depends on a choice that is still yours to make.
Astrological correspondence
In the Golden Dawn system, which the Rider-Waite-Smith deck was drawn within, Two of Swords corresponds to Moon in Libra, 1st decan.
