With the Four of Swords, the conflicts that have been a part of your life are now relenting to give you some respite. You can now take this time to step back and take this time to rejuvenate yourself so you can prepare for the next stage of conflict. Although this card does represent healing, it is also about gathering energy to continue the fight. The problems that you are dealing with have not fully resolved, and will continue to be in your life until they are dealt with. This time will give you the chance to be at your strongest when you face them once and for all.
