Five of Swords

[1] In English-speaking countries, where the games are largely unknown, tarot cards came to be utilized primarily for divinatory purposes.

[1][2] The figure in the foreground suggests victory, potency, and ample preparation or confidence.

The ragged-looking and "torn-asunder" sky implies a frayed, shabby, and jagged celestial plane.

This card can represent dangerous overconfidence leading to a loss, failure or defeat that cannot be overcome.

The card warns that you must swallow and accept this loss before you move forward.
