When a four shows up in your reading, it’s not a time to move forward. It’s not a time to assert yourself. It’s not a time for change.
Four is, in fact, the number of standing still, of stagnation, of building foundations through persistence and hard work.
The Four of Swords comes up in your reading when you need to take a time out. It’s a card of resting after a period of hard work or a particular struggle.
The Four of Swords is also the card of self-care. As a daily tarot card, the message is go to the spa today. Spend the afternoon doing yoga or tai chi. Indulge in a lazy day at the beach with a good book. Spend the day in bed if you need to.
In essence, this card is saying you’re a little under the weather or your batteries are worn down. Time to rest and relax and recharge. So you can live to fight another day.
Be kind to yourself today! Namaste.
