A tied and blindfolded woman stands between eight swords. In the background, a castle.

The theme of this card is stuck thinking. The blindfold indicates that this woman does not see or does not want to see something (lack of understanding in yourself). She thinks, that there is no way out and remains fearful and passively still. Although she is bound and can't see anything, she can take off.

The castle in the background stands for past achievements, which can be old and rigid.

FEAR OF BEING RELEASED FROM A SITUATION OR LIMITATION
Limitations. Not seeing a way out. Not being able to determine direction. Stagnation. Blocked energy or creativity. Oppression.

Because of your situation, you feel bound. You feel like a victim and feel like you are sinking. There is a way out even though it will be difficult. Try to seek help for your situation.
