| III of Swords |
In the III of Swords, you will immediately notice a heart being pierced by 3 swords, clouds are full, dark, and heavy with a downpour of rain. The heart is symbolic of beauty and raw emotion. The piercing swords reflect the ability of logic and power to harm our physical bodies and our emotions.
Although this card can appear negative at first, it is a reminder that no matter what pain we have gone through in life, that experience is never to be considered as a moment and time that was wasted. It is through pain and suffering where we learn the most about who we are deep down inside our souls. We either find out we are weak or strong. To recover from emotional wounds, we must practice self-love, forgiveness and realize that life is cyclical and that there will always be good and bad times. Just as the seasons change, so does life in general- nature reminds us of this.
A heart that is broken today, can be healed tomorrow with the right word or words & circumstances along with the desire to be healed. All is energy. We always have a choice in life-choose the energy of happiness or misery. If you prefer to focus on what's wrong with your life, then no matter what positive circumstances come along your way, you will still have the blues. Having the blues is normal and okay at times, but your friends and family will will get tired if you continue living your life as "woe is me." Rise up and set a good example for others that have been in the same situation as you." Lend a helping hand. Heal each other.
With that said, grief, sorrow and pain are a necessary journey in our lives for that is how we learn compassion and empathy. Without pain, there would be no challenges and no lessons to learn.
Pain can sometimes be a great motivator. It encourages us to surmount obstacles and ultimately learn from our erroneous ways. Do not be surprised when your heart emerges from darkness, you will be capable of loving even more than before! Woohoo!
"No pain that we suffer, no trial that we ever experience is wasted. It ministers the development of such qualities as patience, faith, fortitude, and humility. All that we suffer and all that we endure, especially when we endure it patiently, builds up characters, purifies our hearts, expands our souls, and makes us more tender and charitable, more worthy to be called the children of God... and it is through sorrow and suffering, toil and tribulation, that we gain the education that we come here to acquire." -Orson F. Whitney (Poet and Historian)
