Morphology
reconcile = re + concile
Although the form begins with the familiar prefix 're-', the root 'concile' is not a standalone English word and the meaning 'accept or come to terms with' cannot be reliably derived by a learner from the apparent parts.
Etymology
Reconcile comes from Latin parts re- 'again' and conciliare 'bring together', like a council that makes people agree. A helpful way to remember the sense 'accept' is to imagine 'bringing your feelings back into agreement' with what happened, so you finally accept it.
