Three of Swords tarot card meaning

  • heartbreak
  • grief
  • painful truth

Upright

A heart pierced by three swords in the rain. The Three of Swords is heartbreak and painful truth: hurt that needs to be felt rather than fixed.

Reversed

Reversed, the healing has begun, or you’re holding on to an old hurt longer than it needs.

If you pulled it today

Something hurts, and you don’t have to pretend it doesn’t. Let it rain. Pain that’s felt moves through; pain that’s pushed down stays.
