If you're in a relationship, the Eight of Swords indicates feeling trapped, imprisoned or cornered in your relationship. You may feel like you can't escape, but that's just your perception.
This card can also indicate a relationship in crisis, drama, dilemmas and negativity. In an extreme negative case, it can indicate a violent relationship as it represents victimhood and feelings of powerlessness and hopelessness.
It can also represent judgment and consequences, so if there has been any deception in the relationship, this card sees the betrayal coming to light.
If you are single, the Eight of Swords indicates that you may be waiting for someone to step in and fix everything you feel has gone wrong in your life. Remember that true happiness comes from within. It's not your partner's job to fix your life and if that's what you're waiting for, chances are you'll either push away potential partners as they sense your desperation or you'll attract the wrong type of relationship.
Work on finding inner satisfaction for yourself.
Work & career
Everything is at a standstill, there is no development. There are no opportunities for business expansion. No profits, only expenses and losses. The job search seems unsuccessfull.
Eight of Swords also means that you may be setting limits for yourself. Even if you have the resources available to deal with the problem you may not take action out of fear.
