Oracle Message
With a knowing smirk, the Five of Swords cautions, 'Victory without honor is an empty prize.' Conflict won through deception or pride leaves only isolation in its wake. The true measure of success is not in conquest, but in wisdom. If the cost was too high, was it truly worth it? Let go of battles that serve only the ego, and seek victories that uplift, not divide.
