Is Four of Swords a Yes or No Card?

Four of Swords is a Maybe card.

When Four of Swords appears in answer to a yes-or-no question, it sits in the middle: the outcome isn't fixed, and your choices and circumstances will influence the result. The card suggests nuance—conditions, timing, or factors that are still in flux. It's an invitation to look deeper rather than to force a simple yes or no.

Use this as a prompt to get clear. What would tip the scales one way or the other? What do you need to know or do before you can decide? Four of Swords encourages you to stay present, gather more information if needed, and align your actions with your inner truth. The answer may clarify as you take the next small step.
