Five of Swords and Six of Swords
The conflict, and leaving it. The Six is a slow ferry crossing with passengers and their possessions, the water flat ahead and choppy behind. The tradition reads this run as the healthiest thing that can follow the Five: not another round, but a departure.

In love
Associated with leaving after a falling out. Read as sad and as correct.
In career
Moving on after a dispute rather than continuing it. Frequently read for resignations that were the right call.
The advice
The six swords travel in the boat with them, which the tradition reads as carrying the experience rather than escaping it. That is the honest version of moving on.
