Keywords: transition, change, progress, moving forward, releasing baggage
Yes/No: Yes
Upright: You are moving on from a bad situation. Things have not been well for quite some time, and you have finally had enough. You cover your head from embarrassment, probably for staying for so long, but that will fade over time. The swords you carry with you are your baggage, and you are carrying quite a bit. Going forward you will want to reflect on what baggage is really needed and what you can shed. Some things are important to hold onto because they will give you courage and make you stronger. This will be a transformative process for you. You can see the water is much calmer moving forward, meaning you are not as emotional, plus your landscape ahead seems flat and not full of obstacles. This proves that you are moving towards the better and that this change was needed.
Reversed: You are stuck in your situation and you cannot seem to find a way out, or you are too afraid to leave. After all, better the devil you know than the devil you don’t. You feel like even though the situation is bad, you know what to expect. Maybe you are lacking a support team, so you feel like it is too hard to do it all on your own, but all you are doing is undermining your growth potential. You don’t know yet how strong you really are.
