There are joyful or calm cards in the Tarot deck, some arouse fear, others reflect a state of despair. The latter include the nine of Swords. Even the image on the map pushes to sad thoughts, it literally radiates a state of depression. Let's look at the significance of the nine Tarot Swords, as it is interpreted in the layouts.
Description and essence of the lasso
The map shows a woman in bed. She covered her face with her hands and with all her appearance conveys to the viewer deep despair. Nine of Swords - map of depression. You need to understand that this condition is a transition. Everything in the world is developing in a spiral. Achievement is the loss of striving for a goal. She is already in her hands, therefore, interest has gone, collapsed. Man is looking for a new meaning in life. And this is a difficult process. Its emotional component is described in the Tarot Swords deck. A premonition of danger - the eight - goes into understanding the destructiveness of the current period. Its essence reflects the nine of Swords (Tarot). A person comes to understand the futility of past aspirations, inspiration, which previously gave strength, leaves him. This is a map of despair and depression. Often she shows torment of an unclean conscience. The Nine of Swords is not only moral suffering. She is associated with real diseases of the body. The human energy is over, he does not have the strength to resist life circumstances. In a broader sense, the lasso symbolizes a tough choice between holiness and sacrilege. This is a painful process that draws a person into a fog of unbelief and insecurity. The supports that had previously supported broke down, you need to look for new ones, but it is not clear where exactly. So, by the way, he feels sick: it seems to him that the ailment will never end, he will devour his body forever, until his death. There is no one to help get rid of this suffering.
Reverse Nine of Tarot Swords: Meaning
An inverted card carries even more negative meaning. He is a harbinger of the fact that man will not withstand the burden of circumstances, will take the side of universal evil. The result will be terrible torment of conscience. 9 Swords upside down is a betrayal committed due to compelled circumstances, the inability to continue to be faithful to their principles. A man refuses everything that parents and caregivers inspired, he will inevitably fall to the moral bottom. If the lasso often falls in the layouts, it means that someone from the environment or the fortuneteller himself is prone to antisocial acts, he seeks under the protection of dark forces. This person does not understand the power of shrines, is not ready to endure the slightest deprivation for the sake of a clear conscience. Nine of Swords (inverted) in the relationship indicates too much difference in the worldview of partners. This may be the result of education in a different environment or mental belonging to two opposite, non-intersecting worlds. Arkan should be taken as advice in any position. You are in or will soon find yourself in a very difficult situation. The decision will have to be made independently; no one will tell you. And those who try to help will not be credible. And all further fate depends on the decision made. Under the influence of 9 Swords, the most terrible, shameful acts and even crimes are committed.
Layout Philosophy
Such a heavy lasso "spoils" any combination of cards. Nine of Swords in any position indicates that a period of spiritual rebirth is coming. This experience is experienced by all people. The essence of our life is development. But it does not happen smooth. Behind take-off and success is hard work, intense thought, spiritual pursuit, and the right decisions. It is no wonder to stumble on this road. And it's not just about the obstacles. Nearby are people who have their own view of things. We interact with them, argue or agree, quarrel and put up. This pushes to new achievements of the spirit, reflection, changes in the worldview. We set goals and achieve what we want. For receiving comes desolation and rethinking. This is a period of decline in energy and the search for a new goal. He is insidious that a person ceases to appreciate what previously seemed important, but it is already in the hands. Doubts creep into the soul that he acted correctly, and behind him the rejection of former authorities. Our nine are torments of the soul, often reflected in the physical body. These are the fears of the night before dawn. In life, they have a concrete practical embodiment, each has its own.
The interpretation of the love story
The appearance of Swords is unfavorable when divining about relationships. This suit speaks of a certain tension, a problem. The cups are responsible for the feelings, and conflicts, wars, hard rationalism bring Swords (Tarot) into the layouts. The value in the relationship of our lasso is destructive. And only the depth of the conflict depends on the position of the map, but not its presence. If the lasso fell in the position of "past", then the crisis as a whole has been overcome, but it still affects the situation. It is bad when the Queen of Swords appears nearby. This is a sign of influence on a woman’s relationship, cunning, insidious, selfish and aggressive. Simply, your love has become the object of envy of an active witch. That is what one can call a person who pokes a long nose into other people's affairs, trying to destroy the happiness of other people. Near the prosperous lasso, the card of nine swords softens a little. It does not show the suffering of the soul, but a specific physical ailment. In the female scenario, it can be banal menstruation, but in the event that our lasso fell in a straight position. Inverted portends a more serious disease, which will cause you to postpone things, put to bed. And we should not forget that all conflicts, scandals, gaps, and related proceedings show Swords. In Tarot, the meaning of each suit is strictly defined. Swords are considered the strongest, they impose their meanings even on the major lasso.
Business Interpretation
If the fortune telling nine Swords fell, get ready for problems. Not necessarily they will be insoluble, but they will force them to get ahead. The essence of the conflict, and it is precisely about disagreements with other people, is judged by the neighboring lasso. For example, the inverted Queen of Swords with a nine in the same position speaks of the betrayal of a woman whom you unconditionally trusted. The king in the same combination portends the injustice of the authorities or the inspection body. When it comes to negotiations or contracting, give up hope for a favorable outcome. The meeting will be postponed due to illness of one of the partners. If there are unfavorable major lasso nearby - you have to refuse a profitable offer, positive cards - soon everything will work out, you will be able to find a common point of view. The nine described here indicates a conflict. It is important to understand that accompanying cards speak about the essence of the situation. For example, the Moon with Swords speaks of deception. Moreover, the fortuneteller decided to rob, taking advantage of his trust. The enemy should be sought nearby, this is a close person. The tower with nine Swords foreshadows the complete destruction of plans, for a business person - bankruptcy, the loss of a significant part of property. If a Jester appears next to the described lasso - you will reproach yourself for obeying the flatterer and rejecting the offer of a decent person.
Health Impact
It’s completely bad if our lasso appears when the question is about the state of the body. He portends the patient aggravation of the disease, healthy - his appearance. An active lifestyle can be forgotten for a long time. The state of the body will not allow you to work normally, to enjoy communicating with friends and relatives. In addition, our lasso points to more serious, underlying causes of the disease. If near the Tower, the Moon, the Court - we are talking about karmic problems, the Devil - about the excessive desire for pleasures, the Hanged Man - about destructive self-restraints. An inverted card indicates that it is not possible to solve the problem yourself. In this situation, you need to contact a specialist. And the sooner help comes, the weaker the negative consequences will be. Nine of Tarot Swords, the combination of which with other lasso, as a rule, strengthens the negative, is favorable in the disposition on the probability of a favorable outcome of surgical intervention. It portends a recovery period after surgery. That is, this is a conscious plunge into the bottom of despair in order to remove the nest of the disease.
Map of the day
The described lasso projects depression and despair on all sides of a person's life. But there are situations when it can be called not only positive, but not as difficult as in combination with others. This happens when only 9 Swords are dropped. The map of the day is just such a situation. Our lasso is enhanced by the energy of cards appearing nearby. When appears in "proud loneliness", it can be perceived as an ordinary nuisance, not a terrible grief. Nine of the suit of the Swords says that the day will be cloudy, joyless. As a rule, he portends a small disease, the onset of menstruation for a woman, for example. Inverted indicates physical or mental suffering. But they will not be global and will end quickly. In general, the day will pass, as they say, and thank God! Do not expect significant events from him. Probably, on this day you will break the heel or cut your finger, runny nose or toothache. The problem will be quickly resolved, but it will not deliver pleasure, to put it mildly. On such a day, it is undesirable to plan important things. Set them aside for another, more favorable time. If you have a public appearance, participation in a mass event, take a talisman with you. Nine sometimes indicates "evil eyes" directed in your direction. Inverted, he speaks of torment of conscience.
High Arcana Combination
In the layouts, the cards are interconnected. They give rise to peculiar energies, indicate the subtleties and nuances of the situation. Nine of Swords with other cards translates the following meanings:
- with the Jester - the younger generation has problems;
- with the Magician - the inability to fulfill his plan;
- with the High Priestess - unconscious torment, deep anxiety;
- with the Empress - a threat to women's health;
- with the Emperor - a cruel person nearby;
- with Hierophant - shame;
- with Lovers - sleepless nights;
- with the Chariot - constant nightmares;
- with Strength - decline of spirit;
- with the Hermit - lack of support in a difficult situation;
- with the Wheel of Fortune - unstable ground under your feet;
- with Death - trouble;
- with the Star - hope;
- with the Sun - the triumph of justice;
- with the World - a way out of the crisis.
If our lasso is upside down, then all favorable predictions should be put off in time. That is, if hope arises, then soon, there is a way out later than you want, and so on. The Nine of Swords does not deny the positive significance of the major lasso, but rather muffles emotions. This means that joy will not be so sincere, achievement will not give pleasure, the impression of success will be spoiled by trouble.
Card board
The philosophy of the Tarot is that everything that happens leads to development. There is nothing useless in the world. What we perceive negatively, with suffering and tears, pushes us to rethink the past, change behavior, and search for other ways. Pain is just the stage of ascension to happiness. Our nine is a portent of that despair of course. It cannot last until the grave. The hope of the light should not leave you even in the darkest night. A little time will pass, and the sun will peek out over the horizon. Despair makes you stronger, suffering leads to the appearance of kindness in the soul. And the terrible torment that we steadfastly endure, makes us perceive the minutes of joy much brighter, appreciate them more. Nine recommends not to concentrate on your experiences, not to turn away from the world. Try to find a rational kernel in your fears. For example, betrayal hurts the heart, but it makes you take a closer look at those you trust, abandon people who are not worthy of trust. They will leave, the space will be cleared of negativity, right? Sincere friends will come in their place, able to love you as they are. Even death is a harbinger of a new life. But our lasso does not talk about such global changes. It reflects the suffering of the soul, striving for divine harmony.
Conclusion
People who are just beginning to understand the intricacies of the Tarot wonder why our lasso speaks of both mental and physical pain. It is difficult at first to delimit, to determine what is the premonition in a given situation. This is actually the same pain. Nine indicates the existence of a conflict of the ego with the inner "I". It develops progressively, if not eliminated. At the first stage, discontent appears, it becomes chronic. Surely you came across people who constantly mutter, swear, are unhappy with everything. This is the second stage of the conflict - the negative takes over the soul in the broadest sense. If you do not work on it, then the differences between the ego and the soul deepen. At this stage, physical illness is manifested. The description is schematic. It happens that the process develops over the years, but can pass quickly. They were offended, for example, by their beloved, and by the evening they fell into bed with a sore throat. Get better, analyze your condition on this day. Surely you will find all stages of the development of the conflict. But back to our sheep. The Nine of Swords in the “past” position says that the conflict described is nearing completion. If it falls out as a result of the situation, the test is yet to come. It can be prevented by engaging in spiritual practices. Trouble will happen anyway, but you will pass it easily, without bothering. You know, some people never get sick, don't shed tears, don't wake up in sweat from horror and the like. Their brain is constantly working, analyzing what is happening and its place in situations. This, of course, is difficult, but forces are not wasted on the “emptiness” of which negative experiences and sufferings are. But they do not divine nine Swords. They do not have such energies in the aura, which we also wish for. Good luck
