Two of Swordsfor Capricorn
"Indecision isn't the question. What you do next is."
Six quick picks first, then your reading
A blindfolded female figure balances two swords upon her shoulders. Swords represents knowledge and thoughts and the two card represents duality. Together the two of swords represents competing choices-- a kind of indecision paralysis.
You have two competing thoughts in your head: these thoughts are weighing on you and holding them both is causing a lot of anxiety. It makes sense to be anxious, the outcome will be important. But the fear is paralyzing you. Romantically, maybe you are avoiding a conflict you know you need to have (maybe your current partner is not meeting your needs). When making a big decision it's important to look back to what you truly value and evaluate which option matches those values.
Your deep truth is being clouded by someone else, or you are doing something that isn't good for you in the long term. Making any step forward towards what is healthy for you is good; you don't have to know everything to move in the right direction.

Two of Swords for Capricorn
The Architect
Capricorn is an Earth cardinal sign ruled by Saturn, whose natural subject is career, public standing, authority, legacy. Swords are the air suit, so the Two of Swords sits in Libra. Libra squares Capricorn, so the card asks for the move Capricorn is least fluent in: write the sentence down and stop rewriting it. The friction is the content, not an obstacle to it. Capricorn is cardinal: it starts things, and this is a card about starting, so the danger is starting again instead of continuing. The card works in ideas where the sign deals in what is physically in front of it. The idea will not survive without a concrete first step. Upright, the second thing has actually arrived and the negotiation between them is live.
