“Tell each other and listen to each other, with sincerity and openness of heart, not remaining inflexible in your own convictions, but moving with the heart, as Saint Augustine suggests: ‘It is one thing to move with the body, another thing to move with the heart: he migrates with the body who changes his place by a motion of the body; he migrates with the heart who changes his affection by a motion of the heart.’ And with the heart in motion, dynamic and open, that welcomes the paths that the Holy Spirit shows.” Pope Francis
The Tarot Card of the Day is the 6 of swords
You are trying to decrease your stress or fatigue in a situation when the 6 of Swords appears. This card shows a pair in a boat, hunched over as if one does in grief or sadness, and on a trip or journey of some sort. They also have help, which could be physical help or support in the material world, or even spiritual help. This card is often symbolic of leaving an unhealthy situation, and the unhealthy part may be unhealthy thoughts, or you may just be feeling defeated and tired of going through the same motions and emotions over and over again.
In love, the 6 of Swords suggests you are moving past a relationship to a healthier place in the love affair, but is often symbolic you are doing so alone. You may be feeling at the end of your rope in a specific situation, and are trying to move past that to a brighter future. As such, the 6 of Swords can be somewhat of a grieving card, but you are feeling stronger and better in the experience by simply making the decision to move on. You may be uncertain of what is ahead, but you know it is not as uncomfortable as what is behind you now.
