2, 3, 4 of Swords

Two of Swords
The Two is holding the world at bay. The crossing of the heart allowing no emotion through, similarly the blindfold to stop involvement with people and their emotions. The fear and anger are in balance, leaving the figure tense between them. In a reading this can be a very positive card showing us that we maybe able to hold the turmoil at bay whilst the clarity of the swords helps us see through the problems. It can show us that we have strength, but the lesson is to remove the the blindfold and learn to accept love and emotions. Anger and fear are not ultimately useful tools to us.
This state can make us rash and prone to anger and resentment. If the balance is upset then it is easy to become overcome by problems.
Three of Swords
Heartbreak, sorrow, pain...not the most promising start! True sorrow can teach us to move beyond it, let our hearts know truth and become strong. Knowledge and comprehension give us great strength, we need not fear. Grow and transform these pains into love and accpetance.
Be wary that the healing doesn't beomce blocked. Do not push the hurts away and try to forget them, this weakens us.

Four of Swords

The Four is withdrawal. Sometimes this is through our inability to function in the world, and understand the people around us. Other times, withdrawal is important to rest and allow us to grow stronger to win over our problems. However, it is often outside energy that is needed to help bring us back into the world. Sometimes people need to reach us and shake us out of our retreat and at others, situations will.
