Meaning: The Two of Swords shows a blindfolded figure holding two crossed swords, seated before a calm sea, representing a difficult decision being avoided rather than faced.

Upright: Difficult choice, avoidance, stalemate. Points to a decision being put off, often because both options feel equally uncomfortable to face directly.

Reversed: Indecision resolved, information revealed, overwhelmed by choice. Can suggest a long-avoided decision finally being made, or new information making the choice harder rather than easier.
