Four of Swords in Love and Relationships
Description: Peace in the middle of battle.
Interpretations
Four of Swords represents a time for resting. Now focusing on the tarot card will reveal to you some details of your relationship situation. Notice that the man who happens to be a knight by profession is resting on a coffin. Meanwhile, on his room’s wall there are three swords hanging. The fourth one, however, is attached to his coffin. The interesting part about the room is that it is actually associated with the house of worship. Now we all know that the appearance of swords in a reading implies that there is some sort of dilemma surrounding our lives. Same is true in love and relationship situations. To be clear, there are many issues in the relationship which no longer seem bearable. So the two lovers have thought to just take a break from each other or come up with a temporary conciliation.
Other times, the Four of Swords can represent a person who is too detached in his abusive relationship. His lover can scream and yell as much as she wants, but instead of hearing it all, he would just stay busy with his own things. You might simply hear him say, “I do not care any longer about what she says”. But the funniest part about him is that instead of breaking away from her, he just plays dead in the relationship. So it is possible to say that this man does not have good self esteem and defending power.
Four of Swords can be taken as a good tarot card for people who just went through a breakup. Similar to reversed Three of Swords, Four of Swords tells you that the breakup has caused you a lot of suffering. Now it is your time to heal while figuring out how you can be happy in your next relationship. A point to be noted is that it asks you to meditate seriously about your Mr. Right and Wrong. Recall, spiritualism is attached to this tarot card. What this means is that you need to think about the love that is true in nature.
Apparently, love and romance do not have much connection with Four of Swords tarot card. So if this tarot card represents the feelings of your lover then basically it implies that he is taking a break from thoughts related to you. It is just that he wants to concentrate on other areas of his life.
Reversed Four of Swords talks of the issues getting flooded. That is, the two lovers keep trying to solve them, but somehow they keep multiplying. Otherwise, if a break has already taken place the appearance of Four of Swords tells of the next combat to be fought the relationship. The reversed Four of Swords shows the knight and three swords falling down. That basically represents a chaotic time.
