Five of Swords
Overview
A victory with a high price. You won, but lost relationships, reputation, or self-respect. Sometimes — a conflict where "being right" wasn't worth what it took.
Reversed
You reconsider your share in the conflict. Readiness to apologize or accept apologies, an attempt to restore what was burned. Also: leaving an argument that has no point continuing.
