Six of Swords
Keywords: transition, moving on, leaving behind, calmer waters
Upright meaning
When Six of Swords appears upright, it signals transition. It invites you to pay attention to the themes of transition, moving on, leaving behind in whatever area of life you are asking about.
Upright cards in a daily reading are direct messages: the energy is available to you, ready to be used, and pointing clearly at a single truth.
Reversed meaning
When Six of Swords appears reversed, the energy turns inward. It may suggest blocked, delayed, or overdone transition — or a need to re-balance how you express it.
Reversed cards are not bad luck. They are an invitation to look at the same theme from the other side.
