Combination of card Four of Wands and card Six of Swords

The Six of Swords upright indicates transitions and changes, the search for a better place to live or work. The Four of Wands, on the other hand, speaks of stability, of finding your place under the sun. The combination of these cards suggests a transition to a stable period in life, that the search is over and it's time to build your "home." It's like first you were looking for a job, and then you found your dream and are now building your career.

But if the Four of Wands is reversed and the Six of Swords is upright, the story changes. Transitions and changes still occur, but they don't lead to stability. Maybe you're looking in the wrong place, or you're just not ready to leave the familiar chaos. It's like you're job hunting but can't settle in one place, constantly finding something you dislike.

If the Six of Swords is reversed and the Four of Wands is upright, it creates a rather strange situation. It's like you have found your place, but you can't let go of the past and enjoy the current moment. You keep dwelling on past mistakes or events, which prevents you from moving forward. It's as if you found your dream job but keep thinking about your past mistakes and can't relax.

When both cards are turned over, complete chaos ensues. You can't find your place, you're always searching for something but never finding it. Moreover, it always seems like you've found it, but then it turns out not to be what you needed. It's like constantly searching for a job, finding it, but then realizing it's not what you want and starting the search again.
