Three of Swordsfor Leo
"Heartbreak isn't the question. What you do next is."
Six quick picks first, then your reading
Three swords piercing a heart; cloud and rain behind. Swords represents knowledge and the three card represents collaboration. Together these cards mean a lot of incoming thoughts and ideas (not all positive) are coming at you from yourself and others.
You are dealing with cyclical thoughts and intense emotions related to a change you made recently (perhaps a breakup or a fight with a friend/parent or a project went poorly). Perhaps friends/family/exes are disappointed in you and letting you know. If you hold emotions in your chest-- imagine spreading the emotion to your thighs, hands, feet and giving your heart a breather.
You are blocked by your fear of pain. Making mistakes and messing up is a part of life. You have the tools to handle sadness. Sometimes grieving things and giving them their time allows you to move on.

Three of Swords for Leo
The Creator
Leo is a Fire fixed sign ruled by Sun, whose natural subject is creativity, romance, play, being seen doing the thing. Swords are the air suit, so the Three of Swords sits in Libra. Libra sextiles Leo, 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. Leo is perfectly capable of that, which is exactly why not doing it needs a better excuse. Leo is fixed: it holds on, and this is a card about beginning, so the resistance shows up before anything has even been asked. Air and Fire feed each other, so this card's logic will feel natural here. Natural is not the same as correct. Upright, it has become visible to other people, which is the part that makes it real.
