6 of Swords
The Six of Swords moves a situation that has grown too heavy towards calmer water. It marks a change of viewpoint, carried by a movement you do not steer alone.

A boat glides over the water with a ferryman and a passenger, six blades planted in the hull. The shore you leave stays behind, and the craft gains the other bank.
The ferryman does the work you do not do alone, and the distance taken from the shore you left brings out what the place of origin blurs.
You change place and keep the same method: the boat moves on, and the tension settles again at the same point of the trip, under another sky.
RWS. Six of Swords. The crossing serves as an old figure of a change of state: the boat carries a situation too, not only bodies.
Name what you leave and what you carry in the same bag. Sort it out before you cross, then ask yourself what travels with you.
