What does Nine of Swords mean upright?

Anxiety, sleepless nights and fears that grow enormous in the dark. The dread is genuine, and it is almost certainly larger than the situation. Say it out loud to someone — spoken fear shrinks. The Nine of Swords is suffering the mind creates and the mind can ease.

What does Nine of Swords mean reversed?

Anxiety easing, or fear finally spoken aloud. The worst of the night is passing. Accept help and let the daylight recalibrate what the dark exaggerated. What you feared rarely arrives in the shape you feared it.
