Two of Swords
“A difficult choice being postponed out of fear of the consequences.”
Upright
The Two of Swords sits blindfolded, swords crossed in front — the choice is hard enough that it's easier not to look at it at all. But a decision doesn't disappear just because you avoid it.
Reversed
Reversed, the Two of Swords removes the blindfold. Time to choose, even if neither option is perfect — moving is better than staying stuck forever.
In love
A hard decision about a relationship that's been put off for fear of getting it painfully wrong.
In career
A choice between two paths that calls for an honest look at the facts, not avoidance.

Advice
Take the blindfold off yourself — waiting doesn't make the decision easier.
