The Different Pains in Tarot
Death, The Tower & The Devil have a bad rep. But they are not the ones you should truly dread.
Three of Swords: Heartbreak & Sorrow
This pain screams. And when it is not screaming, it is weeping. It involves separation, rejection, or discovering a truth that crushes your soul.
Seven of Swords: Betrayal & Deception
This pain is speechless. Realization and denial are battling, and you feel helpless. It involves trickery, theft, a knife in back from a person you love.
Nine of Swords: Anguish & Torment
This pain is violent. Cruel and ruthless, it tortures your mind without end. It involves anxiety, fear, sleepless nights, the urge to hurt yourself.
Ten of Swords: Defeat & Ruin
This pain is paralyzing. You have hit rock bottom, and are deciding between getting up and dying. It involves illness, death, a significant life crisis.
Seven of Wands: Struggle & Exhaustion
This pain is brutal. It attacks you from all fronts, leaving you panicked and gasping for breath. It involves your beliefs or reputation being assaulted.
Five of Pentacles: Hardship & Insecurity
This pain is isolating. It shames you, and turns you into a pariah or a victim. It involves total abandonment, banishment, complete financial ruin.
Five of Cups: Grief & Misery
This pain is quiet. Left with no choice, you have accepted life's judgment. It involves a lost opportunity, a regret for what has—or has not—come to be.
