Nine of Swords
Upright Meaning
This card speaks of the anxiety and fear that can consume you in the darkest hours of the night. The Nine of Swords tells you that your worries may be larger in your mind than they are in reality. Reach out for support and remember that the dawn always comes, bringing with it a clearer and more hopeful perspective.
Reversed Meaning
When reversed, this card suggests that you are beginning to recover from anxiety and that hope is returning. The Nine of Swords reversed tells you that the worst of your fears are passing and that you are finding the courage to face what troubled you. It encourages you to release despair and trust in better days ahead.
