Two of Swordsfor Leo
"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 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 Two 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, the second thing has actually arrived and the negotiation between them is live.
