Romance, Love Or Relationships:

In the context of love this card does not have to be the death knell of a relationship, but it does almost always point to relationship difficulty and pain. In order for the relationship to survive, both parties must be willing to work on and talk about the relationship. You may find that someone you thought cared about you is not as loving as you had supposed. Do not take this too personally or dwell too long on the pain, if that is the case. You are being guided to the relationship that is right for you. You cannot force something to be right or someone to care if they do not. The right person will care – of their own accord – without you doing intense contortions, so to speak, to make it happen.

Regardless of the way that the Three of Swords card is depicted, know that it is not all bad. Although there is an element of sorrow that is undeniable when this card appears, what lies on the other side of this sorrow can be enhanced understanding and joy. Allow yourself to fully experience any sorrow or pain that comes up now, so that you can move beyond it.

Book Details
Complete Book of Tarot: Waite (1911): Appearance of Cups in a rainbow; it is contemplated in wonder and ecstasy by a man and woman below, evidently husband and wife. His right arm is about her; his left is raised upward; she raises her right arm. The two children dancing near them have not observed the prodigy but are happy after their own manner. There is a home-scene beyond. Divinatory Meanings: Contentment, repose of the entire heart; the perfection of that state; also perfection of human love and friendship; if with several picture-cards, a person who is taking charge of the querent’s interests; also the town, village, or country inhabited by the querent; (R) repose of the false heart, indignation, violence.

Reversed Cards: I have often read that when the Three of Swords shows up in reverse, the time for healing is now upon you. Once we turn the heart upside down, the swords can slip out and leave the wounds ready to be tended to and repaired. This reading fits perfectly with the idea of the Three of Swords in the protection aspect, for it is best to prepare for healing sooner rather than later. Continued grief, pain, and agony will only weaken you in body, mind, and soul. This does not mean that your strength will be restored right away. In all honesty, you have a long way to go on your healing path. Repairing the heart chakra is one of the hardest journeys we can take as emotional beings, but starting now, it will protect you and not leave you open to more pain.

Complete Book of Tarot: Trump 13: Death. One might think that death trumps all, but in the tarot Death ranks only thirteenth out of twenty-one in its ability to overpower other cards. Jesus demonstrated that he could defeat death by rising from the dead on the third day after his crucifixion.

Complete Book of Tarot: When upright, the Three of Wands shows a man looking out to sea, watching his ships departing or coming in, perhaps carrying goods from a strategically planned business venture. This man and his partners, if he has any, have set realistic goals and acted with foresight. There is every expectation that this cooperative enterprise will succeed; but, to make sure, he is carefully overseeing each step of the process. When this card appears, you are given the green light to expand your horizons and plant the seeds for future success. The number 3 often refers to cooperative ventures, that is, to two or more people pooling their efforts over a period of time to create something new (for example, a married couple having a baby).
