Four of Swords
The Fool journeys to the Four of Swords, and here healing is needed. A break from life, a situation, or stress will be on the cards for The Fool, and if not taken willingly, it could be enforced, and he will find the need to withdraw from the world. He needs to unwind, relax, meditate, or think deeply about life or a situation, and it should be taken seriously. Here The Fool enters a time of retreat from life to recharge his batteries.
Time to take time out! Take a sick day. Wave the white flag. Sit it out. Sleep in. Be a couch potato. Take some time to chill your mind and body before it is forced upon you.
Now is the time to retreat, wave the white flag, and withdraw from life in general or from a situation, as now is not the time for a battle or to maintain one. If it is wearing you down, take 5.
We need rest right now, a time to get our minds in order, recharged, or rebooted. Stress can lead us astray, and some peace and quiet are called for. Time alone, or just a place where we can find some silence. Our bodies can also be an issue, either from stress negatively impacting them or from being ill and not listening to our bodies needs to heal. Be nice to your body—it’s the only one you have.
At times we can feel hurt, let down, and things can seem unfair, and we need to lick our wounds after a bad experience. That’s ok to do and a part of the healing process.
Take a break from your routine.

First, let me start off saying I first interacted with Pam via fb on her page Understanding Tarot, where I am slowly learning Tarot from her and Bob. She commented on my interpretation of a spread, which was fairly accurate, thanks in large part to the knowledge I had gathered from her page. Now, I paid for a reading from Pam and received it rather promptly not even 48 hours later. I chose to include tarot in my reading. She was very thorough in explaining the reading and what the cards represented in relation to my reading. The reading she gave resonated with me although it was not exactly what I was wanting to hear yet she gave me the truth in a very gentle way and also showed me how the cards gave me hope for achieving the answer I'm hoping for in the future which, to me, is definitely more helpful than simply telling one what they want to hear. I love learning from her and I think she may be my new reader!
