Questions people always ask

What does Six of Swords mean in tarot?

Six of Swords speaks of a crossing, necessary distance and moving out of confusion. It comes from the suit of Swords, linked to the mind, decisions and truth.

Is Six of Swords a good or a bad card?

Neither. In tarot there's no such thing as a good or bad card, only its message. Six of Swords shows a crossing, necessary distance and moving out of confusion, and what you do with it is what counts.

Six of Swords in love and relationships

The card brings memory and reciprocity: what's given and what comes back, and in Swords the subject is mind and word: the conversation, the truth said or swallowed, and how much of the pain your thinking is manufacturing.

A single card names the theme; it can't answer your situation. That's what the Love Tarot is for — it starts from your question and your context.

Six of Swords in work and money

The card brings the fair exchange — payment, recognition, help given or received, and in Swords it's strategy and communication: a contract, a hard negotiation, a truth said in the meeting — and the mental cost of all of it.

To apply this to a real decision about work or money, the Prosperity reading starts from your question.
