Romance, Love Or Relationships:
The reversed Two of Swords says that this is a time to be cautious and deliberate when it comes to love relationships. You may be tempted to push to ‘move things forward,’ but this is not the time. If you are looking for love, by all means get out and mingle, and you may well meet a likely contender, but it will be some time before a love relationship with them develops. Be patient. And then be more patient.

The Lord of Peace is a card which advises us to climb to the high ground in order to get a perspective, particularly on any emotional difficulties that we might have. Sometimes, a conflict bogs us down so badly in our reactions that we find it difficult to achieve an objective view. Instead we wallow about, knee deep in hurt feelings and negativity, never able to get an overview. Yet if we can just move our position a little, see the centre of the conflict, often we perceive the whole situation more clearly. And once we manage that, a way through the tangle becomes apparent. When we can see that pathway we know what we need to do, and it’s easy to see what’s really important and what is rubbish that we collected along the way. So on a day ruled by the 2 of Swords, if there are any issues about which you feel emotionally sore and unhappy, make a deliberate and conscious effort to get to the high ground, above the situation.
If you have no pressing emotional hurts right now, pick a matter that causes you concern more randomly – a long-running confusion, maybe, or something which you wish could have been resolved in the past. Use the same process of climbing above it with the intention of finding another way of looking at it, which is more comfortable for you than the one you now have. And then stick with it, and enjoy the sense of peacefulness that comes from finding a solution to something that hurts you! In readings, the Two of Swords often appears when you are not willing to accept some truth about yourself or the situation. What are you really feeling? Are you resisting tender feelings because you might be hurt? Are you furious even though you’re smiling? What are you refusing to look at? Notice the blindfold on this woman. She can’t look at the truth or even acknowledge that there is trouble.

Reversed Cards: One has to wonder, what good is a mirror if you are unable to see it? This is a valid question here in the mirror aspect of the Two of Swords. The card itself alludes to not being able to use our eyes or at least to a lacking in the sense of visual sight. The Two of Swords, regardless of how you hold it, is not about the external world. It is about something deeper, more intense, possibly even spiritual in nature. If we follow this line of thinking through, then we can say that here in the mirrored aspect the reflection we are dealing with is the internal world or the inner self. Lets face itthats the only thing we can see while we have a blindfold on.
Portable Magic: When you feel that enough energy has been accumulated in the astral circle, hurl that lance of will with your right hand from your heart centre through the upright astral triangle of light that floats in the air above the three rugs of the elemental trumps on the triangular dais. Mentally watch the upright triangle fill with bright radiance, and watch it slowly fade. Take up the three realizer cards that are the charm for good luck and place them in your container, which can be as simple as a new envelope of white paper. Then pick up the cards of the layout one by one in the reverse order to which they were laid out and shuffle them back into the Tarot deck. The ritual is ended, but the charm continues

Portable Magic: Your own significator and the significators of those for whom you act as agent, if this is part of the ritual, and the person or persons at whom the ritual is directed, should be placed on the working surface separately so they can be located without delay.
