Ten of Swords & Ten of Cups Feelings Combination
Hello awesome AT community!
So, I finally have a card combination that seems to completely confuse me to the point where I am searching for your help! Ten of Swords and Ten of Cups together regarding feelings for someone. As part of a larger spread, you pull TWO cards for “what are his feelings for me?” so both answer the question. I wanted to make that note that one wasn’t pulled as a clarifier.
Here is a bit of background to help explain my interpretations for this combo. A guy and myself hit it off wonderfully. He was definitely into me, kind, gentlemanly, considerate, etc. All of a sudden, he got cold feet/afraid. I know this because when we talked about why he all of a sudden disappeared, he said he didn’t want to get too serious to get hurt again.
I know he was in a relationship with a woman who completely destroyed his world, cheated on him, etc and he really hasn’t recovered from it or dealt with it, therefore doesn’t want to put himself out there or trust women/anyone. Since ceasing “dating” and progressing the relationship, we’ve seen each other while out with our mutual friends, and always have good conversation/time. Whenever we have a moment to talk or are able to be alone he makes it evident he still has feelings for me and said he wants to trust me. However, nothing has progressed, he doesn’t seem to let himself feel that for some reason.
Would the 10/Swords mean that I am helping him to see that the worst/hurt is over? It is okay to trust me and be with me because the trauma of his past relationship is over? Or could it mean that his feelings are just gone? He hit his bottom and is just moving on from me.
However, paired with the 10/Cups, to me this card is like the ultimate, “You make me so ridiculously happy!” or “You make me so much happier than I ever thought.” “I want to be with you because I feel safe and comfortable.”
In addition to him not taking any action, I feel a bit contradicted when both are combined to show his feelings, since I typically get a negative vibe from 10/S and positive one from 10/C. I truly appreciate you taking the time to read and give your insight!
