The Three of Swords in your reading This card shows you that the situation in which landed (or are landing) can be confusing. Problems are waiting for you and it is very easy to trip. Pay extra care to you way of communicating. Make sure that there is no double message possible and explain what you are saying when necessary. Notice any non-verbal communication of the other and make use of what you see. A fight is created just like that but solve the issue is much harder. It could be that you experience stress that is hidden inside you. You do as if it doesn't matter but still you feel your heart tear and it seems as if swords pierce through it. The raindrops in this card symbolize your tears. Because of all the emotions it is hard to find out what is really the matter, but you will find out when the moon is replaced by the sun again and the clouds have lost their raindrops. Tears can be very healing. Water has forever been a means to clean and our body uses it to clear out emotions. Don't keep in you tears. If you are scared that you won't stop when you start... you will be okay. At some point you will be done crying for the day and some day you won't need your tears anymore because all the pain has been flushed. Let them go, it's only good for you and the situation that you start shedding some emotions. Sometimes this card can tell you that you looking at an operation but it can also mean that you just don't feel that well.
