Alright, today I wanna talk about something that happened to me recently, it’s about the “9 of Swords Reversed” card in tarot and how it kinda mirrored some real-life stuff going on with me and a friend.
So, I’ve been into tarot for a while now, not like a pro or anything, just something I find interesting. I have this friend, let’s call her Sarah. We used to be super close, but lately, things have been off. Just a weird vibe, you know? Couldn’t really put my finger on it.
One day, I was doing a little reading for myself, just for fun. And bam, the 9 of Swords Reversed pops up when I asked about my relationship with Sarah. I looked it up, this card is all about anxieties, nightmares, and overthinking stuff, but in reverse, it often means that maybe these worries are not as bad as they seem, or that you are starting to realize your worries are exaggerated. I was shocked, that’s exactly how I was feeling.
I started thinking, maybe I was just overthinking the whole situation with Sarah. Maybe that weird vibe was just in my head, right? I was staying up late, worrying about our friendship, kinda like the person on the card who can’t sleep. But here’s the thing, the reversed card made me think, “Hold up, maybe it’s not as bad as you think.”
So, I decided to just talk to her. It was a bit awkward at first, but I just said, “Hey, things feel a little weird lately, is everything okay?” And guess what? She felt it too. But it wasn’t some huge drama like I was imagining. Turned out, she was just going through some personal stuff and didn’t know how to bring it up, she told me that she really needed some time to recover and I understand that.
That 9 of Swords Reversed was a wake-up call for me. It showed me that I was letting my anxieties get the best of me. It also kinda pushed me to just have that honest conversation with Sarah. We are good now, better than before, actually.
I guess what I learned is that sometimes, we build things up in our heads way more than we need to. And sometimes, a little card pull can be a good nudge to just talk things out. Tarot’s not about predicting the future or anything, but it can be a cool tool to reflect on what’s going on inside your head. Just my two cents, though.
Here’s what I did, step-by-step:
- Pulled the 9 of Swords Reversed in a reading about a friend.
- Realized I was probably overthinking the situation.
- Decided to talk to my friend directly about it.
- Had an honest conversation, cleared the air.
- Felt a whole lot better after talking it out.
Key takeaway?
Don’t let your anxieties run wild. Sometimes, a simple conversation can fix a lot more than you think.
