The Six of Swords card features a man and a woman in a boat filled with six swords. The man is steering the boat, indicating that the control of a situation is in their hands, while the woman represents the aspects of the situation they're leaving behind. The six swords represent both the baggage from the past that we carry with us and the lessons learned from the hardship.

The general meaning of the Six of Swords is that of a transition or a journey.
