Upright
Something is definitively ending and it will not be reversed. But the heart of this card is transformation, not loss. Letting go of what you were holding is what creates the space, and a new phase moves into that space. It touches endings in relationships, work and habits alike.
Reversed
Clinging to what should already have ended. Resistance to the change is what is stretching out the pain; start by admitting that it is over.
Advice
Call the finished thing finished. Nothing new enters until you clear the space.
