Nine of Swords

Swords · Air · IX · anxiety · sleepless nights · dread

Upright meaning

Sitting up in the dark with the head in the hands. Anxiety at its worst hour — the fear that is far larger at three in the morning than it will be by daylight. Mostly anticipation rather than event.

Nine of Swords reversed

The worst passing. Speaking it aloud, or discovering it was smaller than the night made it.

In love

Worry consuming a relationship, or fear of a conversation that has not happened yet.

In career and money

Stress that has outgrown the problem causing it.

Yes or no?

No. Drawn in answer to a direct question, this card advises against it — or says not yet. Want it read against your actual situation rather than in general? Pull a card here.
