09 of Swords

The Nine of Swords shows a woman sitting up in her bed with her head in her hands. She  appears to have been jolted awake from a terrible nightmare that has left her disturbed,  scared and anxious. Nine swords hang on the dark wall behind her, representing the negative  thoughts that weigh heavily on her mind. The base of the woman’s bed features a carving of  one person defeating another, and roses and the outlines of astrological symbols adorn the  quilt wrapped around her.
