Feelings associated with the Nine of Swords in a romantic context may suggest anxiety, worry, or inner turmoil. Does the presence of this card mean the person has no feelings for me?
Additionally, with the Tower nearby (though not directly adjacent), how do these two cards combine to influence feelings? The combination appears somewhat negative to me. What insights can you offer regarding these cards and their implications for emotions in a romantic context?
Thanks in advance for your replies.
The Nine of Swords and the Tower in a romantic context may suggest a lack of trust, fear of the future, or a feeling of being overwhelmed by difficult emotions. The Nine of Swords often implies fear, worry, and a sense of helplessness when it comes to a particular situation. The presence of the Tower may suggest that something has been building up that can no longer be ignored, and is likely to reach a chaotic ending or abrupt change. Together, these two cards can indicate a difficult time ahead where one's trust in the relationship is tested, or a feeling of great disappointment about the way things have worked out. It is important to remember that these cards do not necessarily spell the end of a relationship; instead they reveal a need to pause, reflect, and take a step back to assess the situation. With careful consideration, it may be possible to address the issues that have been raised and restore balance and harmony.
The appearance of the 9 of Swords might suggest inner conflict or sleepless nights caused by emotional turmoil. This could manifest as a struggle between feelings for someone (X) and conflicting obligations or societal norms, such as being in love with someone else (Y) or adhering to societal boundaries.
In the context of emotions, the Tower card could signify a sudden and impactful realization, which might be positive or not. This realization might involve the person's feelings and could be akin to the complex and intertwined emotions of love and hate. Alternatively, it could symbolize a more literal event, such as an intense orgasm.
This card may suggest feelings of guilt or shame, especially when paired with the Tower. It could imply that she harbors some sexual feelings for you that she perceives as inappropriate. Alternatively, it might signify concerns about your mental or physical well-being for some reason. With the Tower in the mix, the worry may be that you are perceived as unstable or could engage in actions with significant consequences, causing her mental trauma or anguish.
Regrettably, I wouldn't interpret this card as indicating warm and affectionate feelings (like fuzzy-puppy emotions), and unfortunately, the overall impression might not lean towards positive feelings if this card is drawn.

In addition to the points already discussed...
If you find yourself frequently asking about this, the card may be suggesting that it's time to ease off the worry.
Imagery can also play a role. For instance, in my initial deck, the card depicts a naked woman with long hair reclining, leading me to interpret it as overtly positive, especially in the context of romantic or sexual relationships. It could indicate a desire to be intimate or engage in a romantic encounter. (The interpretation might vary based on whether you're relying on learned meanings or the visual cues in that particular moment.)

Feelings represented by the Nine of Swords may suggest that this person indeed has emotions, but they are somehow distorted. It could indicate they are grappling with issues such as depression or anxiety, experiencing stress when it comes to relationships. To me, this card serves as a warning that there might be deeper complexities to this person than initially apparent.

That sounds intriguing. I sometimes feel a similar connection with my deck. Currently, I've exclusively been using my Morgan-Greer deck. Perhaps, after a week or so, I'll try asking with a different deck to see if I receive a similar answer. Thanks to everyone for your responses.

I've considered that before. I believe she might be experiencing some level of depression and/or carrying guilt from our past. Her emotions may be influenced by his past relationship with his ex. When these cards come up, I'm unsure about what to make of them, but they might just be conveying a message to me.
