Description of the card of the 6 of swords on Tarot
The 6 of swords is one of the minor mysteries of the Tarot.
The Tarot's Six of Swords is in the form of two groups of three curves that meet at both ends of the card.
In the center a flower blooms. This is a form of internalization since the flower is enclosed in an oval (also a form of protection), a eu in the image of the Tarot World Card.
One has the impression that this flower is gathered upon itself in deep meditation. It seems to be in a form of waiting. We also notice that the flower is cut cleanly and thus separated from what gave birth to it. This probably means that this flower is in solitude. It has to assume its situation, its uniqueness and its loneliness.

The card of the 6 of Tarot Swords is a card carrying a form of resignation and great sadness. As with all cards in the sword series, it will essentially speak of the function of thinking
The map of the six of sword in the right place show that it is necessary to cut with a form of link and create a transition. This map is full of regret and sadness at the decision that has to be made. You know you have to make that decision. But in order to make it, it is necessary to leaving something important behind. This generates enormous regret because it creates a lot of suffering.
The Difficulty of Making a Painful Decision
Deep down, you know that this is the best option. You know that this decision you are making today will have long-term consequences. But it is difficult.
On the other hand you feel obliged to move forward and detach yourself from what is most important to you. This process is difficult and painful. In any case, the sadness of the loss that accompanies you will be replaced by a situation that will improve significantly. So the six sword card of the tarot asks you to know how to accept the changes in life and the difficult decisions in order to move forward.
You must know how to accept to leave things behind in order to move forward.
We must not be afraid to move forward even if the decisions are difficult. The map also points out that sometimes there are things, elements in the present or in our past that hold us back and prevent us from moving forward.
The message of the 6 of Swords: Knowing how to detach yourself from the past
Instead, it is necessary to look the future straight in the eye. We need to choose the best options for the long term. Although the decisions to be made are difficult, compromises do pay off.
Thus this map which accompanies the map in the spirit of the Arcane without Name shows that the passages are certainly difficult, but allow you to access new phases of life.
You need to realize that you have to change your life today. You have endured difficult things. It's time for that to stop. The card asks you not to lock yourself in the past or in what you are leaving behind. On the contrary, use this opportunity that life offers you to change your beliefs and move forward.
Detachment is not cowardice.
Sometimes the only way to solve problems in life is to leave them behind. Some problems are intractable and it is better to move on. Even if you have the impression when you leave problems behind that you are deserting them, this is not the case. Sometimes it is useful to run away. The most important thing is to guide you over the long term.
