Upright
It feels inescapable, but you are held by your own doing. Somewhere — money, a relationship, a habit — there is something you cannot put down even though you can see it clearly. Desire is not the problem; whether it has taken away your choice is.
Reversed
The binding is being recognised and cut. Recovery does not arrive all at once, so even without a clean escape, the fact that the direction has changed is what matters.
Advice
Check whether the chain is actually locked. Usually it is not.
