"Transition isn't the question. What you do next is."
Six quick picks first, then your reading
A ferryman carrying passengers in his punt to the further shore. The course is smooth, and seeing that the freight is light. Swords represents knowledge and the six card represents harmony. Together the six of swords represents the end of a longstanding issue and the start of a more balanced life.
A journey (perhaps by or near water) offers you a calm break from a turbulent time. You are healing from old wounds. Romantically maybe you have truly moved on from an unhappy relationship (or rough patch) and can now start to heal. At work you might be wrapping up a hard project and having a bit of welcome slower time.
Your healing journey is blocked (perhaps you are standing still or perhaps you are moving too fast). Romantically, don't run into a new persons arms or cut yourself off from love completely. Walk with purpose, but allow yourself to take in the wonderful world around you.

Six of Swords for Sagittarius in Health and Energy
The Seeker
Swords are the air suit, so the Six of Swords sits in Libra. Libra sextiles Sagittarius, which is help that has to be taken up rather than help that arrives. What it asks for is this: write the sentence down and stop rewriting it. Sagittarius is perfectly capable of that, which is exactly why not doing it needs a better excuse. Upright, the recovery is underway with the loss still in the room.
When reading about health through a Sagittarius lens, the Six of Swords says that you feel like your body is a machine that gets you to the next place, something that will hold up if you do not think about it too hard, and less important than where you are trying to go. This has either meant you stay resilient and light or has meant you crash hard when the body finally stops cooperating. The body has been sending the same signal for months and nobody has bothered to listen. The Sagittarius blind spot in it is the specific weight of a single commitment, the slowness of actually building something, the possibility that it might not be enough.
In practice that can look like anxiety with a real cause. Whatever form it takes, it is recovering, with the loss still in the room.
