Hello all,
I just would like to hear some opinions on how readers here perceive the difference between 6 of swords and 8 of cups.. Because time and time again, I have seen great confusion with how people read 6 of swords specially, in various reading exchanges.. like people read 6 of swords as leaving a disappointing situation behind.. whereas 6 of swords is actually moving to a better ground and not necessarily leaving things or people behind while they come out of the mental turmoil..
most decks represent 8 of cups as a person or in my deck a couple moving away from something in the search for something else.. its about leaving a situation of disappointment behind.. living in exile sometimes .. and at its highest state , its a quest for meaning of life..
6 of swords represents a person and again in my deck a father and his children coming out of a difficult situation.. It represents passage from obstacles , moving away from immediate danger and struggle. A promise of better times ahead.. release of tension and anxiety after a period of strain. could also mean a literal journey..
so the way I see it is that the person/people in 8 of cups leaving a disappointing situation in which they will feel unfulfilled.. and its not to say that the situation was not fulfilling in general.. its just not good enough for the people/person involved.. and while they go on their journey to find that missing cup, they may not find it and sometimes they may even return to what they had before.
But in 6 of swords people/person are actually moving to a better place.. this is not to say that they are moving away from something, it could also be that the situation they are in will improve and their anxieties will lift.. in this case the people/person in 6 of swords will have no desire to actually step back into the situation of turmoil..
what does everyone here think..? I would love to know how different readers read these two cards, as it would greatly help with my future readings and understanding of these two cards..
many thanks xx
