Heart
.
The Heart position reveals personal tendencies, romantic attitudes, goals, or intentions that may have an affect on your perspective, the results, or course of action.
The Seven of Wands (reversed) in this position suggests that you may be unable or unwilling to make or plead your case, you may be losing ground; retreating, or hiding out away from others for fear of "I told you so's," accusations, or being called to task for previous choices, conduct, or positions that may have proven indefensible or embarrassing. Feeling stripped of dignity, status, privacy, options, or respect, or with interest and enthusiasm waning, you may be overcompensating or find it easier to just go along to get along, or worse, resort to manipulation in order to climb the social ladder or control a lover. The excuses, however, may be running thin, and you might be ready to change your mind, give up the fight, or surrender to the truth, love, or to passion, for the struggle or isolation could be sapping your energy or affecting your progress. It just may not be worth the effort any longer, and accepting this can actually be quite freeing, but beggars can't be choosers.

In general, the Seven of Wands is Valor or Rivalry, and it can represent the paradox of standing up for yourself, but also suggest that you may have so many irons in the fire going in different directions that you are struggling to defend or maintain control. The Seven of Wands asks that you recognize that you may be taking on a defensive position. You may have made your way to this point through struggle, hard work, and a solid foundation, but now you may be facing competition or rivalry, and those who applauded your early achievements may now have become jealous, dissatisfied, envious, or demanding. This may not always come as a surprise, for if you were arrogant or riding your "high horse," can you but wonder at why others may now want to see you take a fall? This is where your character, skills, and courage will definitely come into play.

This Is Now
.
The This Is Now position includes current status, motives, situation, or phase of your relationship, as well as a potential outcome and suggestions for making the most of present circumstances.

The Two of Swords in this position suggests that "Once bitten, twice shy" could be your current rationale for using precaution, pleading the "fifth," or blindly defending your fear, privacy, stance, or reason for staying on the fence, rather than giving into passion, curiosity, making a connection, or taking a risk on the dating process, but in an effort to hold your ground; make a formal distinction or discriminating choice; protect your secret, self image, or reputation, or to avoid conflict, there is a chance that you are ignorant to, or in denial of, the emotional impact of what is going on behind your back. At this time, you may be playing it cool; are holding back; set in your ways; missing or hiding something in what could otherwise be a volatile matter of trust or respect related to your love life or relationship. The resulting impersonal, restricted, discrete, or anonymous communication; feigned indifference, or avoidance in an attempt to invalidate your own feelings or to cushion the emotional impact of involvement, may not bring understanding or emotional safety, but result in disappointment, loneliness, or tension over a difference of opinion, distance, or contest of wills, that serves to more deeply entrench your resistance to the truth or a confrontation. The intimidating, formal, punctilious, or protective façade, discourse, or conduct may be your "story," and you're sticking to it, at least for the moment.

In general, the Two of Swords suggests that you might have turned your back on your feelings, or are refusing to acknowledge some emotion, and as a result, you may be a bit unstable right now. It is asking you to choose, or reconcile yourself to your options, perhaps through contemplation or conflict resolution. Learn to trust your instincts or intuition in order to move forward, rather than stubbornly holding onto a point or position with blind faith or loyalty.
