In general this card usually means that you are needing some time and space to yourself. Others may be pushing too hard for bits of your time and attention. Don’t hesitate to draw boundaries for yourself or to say no. Conversely, when others say no to you, take them at their word. Pushing in this circumstance is asking for trouble.

The Four of Swords is a card that signifies a break (or need for a break) from normal life. This can also mean that you or someone in your life may withdraw for a time. This withdrawal is not likely to be permanent. It also occasionally means illness or time in the hospital or (even more rarely) in jail. It’s a clear signifier to give people their space.

Development for Beginners: You can easily replicate this study yourself by having the members of your family each wear T-shirts that are the same color and size (so you can’t tell whose is whose based on appearance) for one whole day.

Creative Tarot: The Four of Swords advises you to keep things stable enough so that you’re not running yourself into the ground. It’s easy to mythologize musician Kurt Cobain or the poet Arthur Rimbaud, who drove themselves to extremes for their art and burned out and died or retired young as a result. Harder than that is to be someone who maintains sanity while producing genius work and who is able to keep working consistently over a long career.

Portable Magic: Each court card has two elemental properties that work in combination to define the nature of the card the background element and the foreground element. The first is the element that comes from the suit to which the court card belongs. For example, all court tarot cards in Wands have as their base or foundation the element of Fire, which is the element of the entire suit of Wands. The background element of the suit serves as a stable foundation against which the foreground element functions. It is much the same as the astrological relationship between the signs of the zodiac and the planets. The planets act against the background of the signs, which color or modify their meanings.
