Two of Swords
Upright
Difficult decisions, weighing up options, an impasse, avoidance
The Two of Swords shows that you are handling a difficult decision and you are confused about which option to choose. Both possibilities may seem equal and you don’t know about which will lead you to the best result.
In a reading, it may help to draw further cards to show what it is you are seeking to decide upon. You may also like to draw more cards, for the pros and cons of each option.
The woman in this card covers her eyes with a blindfold, showing that she cannot see the whole of her situation. So you may lack the knowledge you need to make the right choices. You may be needing something, such as the warnings or risks, alternative resolutions or important pieces of information that would guide you in a distinct direction.
The Two of Swords could also purposely wear the blindfold to avoid making a choice. Are you trying to hide from a hard situation, hoping that if you neglect it long enough, you won’t need to bother about it? Sadly, the problem is unlikely to resolve itself, and the longer you hold, the longer you will lengthen this present condition.
The Two of Swords appears as a reminder that many of life’s choices are tough ones and rarely come with plain solutions. The message is to make your decisions with your best purposes, fully aware of the potential consequences.
Reversed
Indecision, confusion, information overload, stalemate

It seems impossible to make the correct decision as you know either option will lead to negative results.

You may also lack the knowledge you need to make a reasonable decision. You may also be closed off to new information that could solve your dilemma like the blindfolded woman is closed off to the outside world.
The reversed Two of Swords is asking you to listen to your intuition about this tough choice. Believe what you know to be right for you. Make your choices based on your own inner compass.
The reversed Two of Swords often describes a delay. You may reach an obstacle with a friend or a loved one. The problem is that all people involved are declining to see the circumstance from the other’s viewpoint.
The reversed Two of Swords may also hint you are feeling stuck in the center of two opposing sides. You may be trying to play the mediator role, but in doing so, you are just frustrating yourself. Determine whether you truly have a role to play and whether you can build peace between the two conflicting parties.

However, these setbacks are a necessary part of your life journey.
You may also struggle to put your plans into motion. It’s possible that you did not sufficiently plan for the difficulties on your path, or you were unrealistic about the dangers connected with your plans.
