All Upright

Six of Cups Reversed

Ace of Wands Reversed
The Ace of Wands reversed signifies a blockage in creativity or a lack of direction in pursuing passions. It may suggest hesitation or fear of taking risks that could stifle new beginnings. This card calls for a reignition of inner fire, reminding one to seek inspiration anew.
Ten of Swords Reversed
The Ten of Swords reversed often heralds recovery from hardship and the gradual release of pain. It suggests a transition from betrayal or loss towards healing and resilience. This card encourages embracing the lessons learned while letting go of lingering hurt.
All Reversed
