geroth Posted December 17, 2017 Posted December 17, 2017 How would you interpret 10 of Swords for "The reason my girlfriend lied to me"? The question related as to why my partner lied to me about an ex. She said she did not have a romantic relationship with a particular guy I know in the past but I have credible evidence that she indeed did. I've read it can mean someone who seems anxious, stressed, worn out. But this wouldn't fit in this instance. Can it mean bad memories or not wanting to hurt me? Could anyone share insights on this?
Star83 Posted December 17, 2017 Posted December 17, 2017 10 of swords is complete psychological pain that destroys you. So it could mean that her ex caused her this pain or she knows it could cause you psychological pain or she deliberately wanted to cause you pain. But my bet is it's one of the first two.
EmpyreanKnight Posted December 17, 2017 Posted December 17, 2017 Maybe she thinks that whatever happened in the past, if it indeed did happen, is over and done with, much like the 10 of Swords. Nothing would change it anyway, so she just said what she did in order to spare you any pain you may feel. She may also think that if she admits it, it would be a dealbreaker of sorts to you or that your relationship would reach its nadir, so she just opted not to.
Guest Posted December 17, 2017 Posted December 17, 2017 on the outside ten swords is a loss card usually. loss of trust, loss time, loss of friendship, loss of employment, etc, the completion of a long chain of events that would be perceived as "the end" of something, a phase of life. on the inside though it expresses the practicality used to face the outward conditions. if the ten refers to her; Lying may appear to be the practical solution to her.
Ephemeridae Posted December 17, 2017 Posted December 17, 2017 Questions I would ask myself if this came up in my own reading: How many times have I asked her this question or questions like it? Is it possible that I'm beating a dead horse? Maybe she's just tired and doesn't have the energy to fight anymore, and lying is the easiest way out.
Emilija Posted December 27, 2017 Posted December 27, 2017 Ten of Swords, to me, means a painful loss. It may have just been something very painful for her that she has moved on from. Seeing that she has indeed moved on to a new relationship, she may very well not want to revisit that past experience.
