This is the insomnia card. This person is worrying a little too much about everything that is negative in her life and probably worried about everyone else she knows. The Swords are all intermingled with each other, so one builds on the other. The Swords, like all other sword cards, can be handled by dealing with the most important issue, and not all the concerns that are going on at this time. Remember, if you handle the most important issue, the others will fade or nearly take care of themselves. The black background indicates the feelings of helplessness and despair, negativity and conflict surrounding the figure. She sits up in bed not being able to sleep. She covers her face in despair. How will she handle all of these problems, she wonders? She is dressed in white, so she is a sucker (too giving, caring, loving, kind, generous and honest). She needs to stand up for herself more, be more assertive and take control of her life. When she discovers that only one major decision should be made, she will find that her life will be much more manageable and she will definitely be in total control. She is covered with the blanket depicting the power of the universe at her disposal. The red roses in the blanket show the desire for her control of the situation. The knowledge of the universe is around her depicted by the symbols of the zodiac on her blanket. Using her intelligence to handle life’s problems is shown by the yellow in the blanket as well as the blue indicating that through her spirituality or use of universal knowledge, she will overcome her obstacles.
