Ten of Swords

Ten of Air · a card from the Eutheum deck

Upright

a painful ending, rock bottom

Reversed

recovery, regeneration

Upright meaning

An ending, rock bottom, a painful close, but also the start of a new day. The Ten of Air says the worst has already happened and it won't get worse. Like the felled monster at the edge of the island with a golden sun rising above it, the card announces that after the fall comes rebirth.

Reversed meaning

Slowly getting back up, coming out of a crisis, relief. Or resistance to accepting that something has really ended.

Love and relationships

A painful end to a relationship, a sense of betrayal, but also the end of suffering. Reversed: healing wounds, a new beginning.

Work and money

A project collapsing, a loss, a failure that closes a chapter. Reversed: rebuilding, learning from mistakes.

The card's advice

This storm is over. Look at the rising sun.

In Natuland

A huge, dark monster lies felled at the edge of an island, pinned by ten blades, while a golden sun rises over the sea of clouds. The worst has already happened, and a new day is just beginning.

Symbols on the card

• Ten blades: the painful end of a cycle.
