Tarot Meaning: Two of Swords

Blindfolded, arms crossed with two swords — refusing to see the choice.

Minor ArcanaSwords

Upright Meaning

A blindfolded figure sits with two crossed swords, caught between two options and refusing to look at either clearly. This card marks a stalemate — a decision being avoided rather than made.

Reversed Meaning

Reversed, it can mean the blindfold finally coming off, a decision forced by circumstance, or information that breaks the stalemate.
