– What should you focus on today?
– What is the source of your frustration?
Du to or thanks to Pamela Colman Smith, the Ten of Swords is considered bad luck and often interpreted as a tragic end.
It’s not the case.
According to Etteilla – Ten of Swords (54) – Affliction.
Straight: Weeping, tears, sobs, moans, sighs, wails, lamentations, complaints, afflictions, regrets, sadness, pain, poetic lament, desolation.
Reversed: a) Advantage, earnings, profit, Success. b) Grace, favour, benefit. c) Ascendant, power, empire, authority, might, usurpation.
S. L. Macgregor Mathers, The Tarot.
Straight: Tears, affliction, grief, sorrow.
Reversed: Passing success, momentary advantage.
According to A.E. Waite, the Pictorial Key to the Tarot.
Straight: the card means whatever is intimated by the design. It also signifies pain, affliction, tears, sadness, and desolation. It is not especially a card of violent death.
Reversed: Advantage, profit, success, favour, but none of these are permanent; also power and authority.
Samuel Liddell MacGregor Mathers’s pamphlet The Tarot.
Straight: Tears, affliction, grief, sorrow.
Reversed: Passing success, momentary advantage.
The English Method according to Grand Orient (A.E. Waite) – Ten of Spades (Swords)
Grief, imprisonment.
Arthur Edward Waite’s Pictorial Key to the Tarot.
Straight: Whatsoever is intimated by the design (A prostrate figure, pierced by all the swords belonging to the card); also pain, affliction, tears, sadness, desolation. It is not especially a card of violent death.
Reversed: Advantage, profit, success, favour, but none of these are permanent; also power and authority.
In the UET, it represents Venus in Gemini, and its primary function is gathering information. In the reversed position, as the communication channels are obturated, it causes frustration.
The opposite card, the Ten of Wands, can remove the blockage and release the captive energies.
What can we learn from the cards today?
The substantial workload and issues, coupled with inadequate communication, result in frustration and introduce new challenges.

On Saturday, you should rest.
Thus, the heavens and the earth were completed in all their vast array. By the seventh day, God had finished the work he had been doing, so on the seventh day, he rested from all his work. Then God blessed the seventh day and made it holy because on it he rested from all the work of creating that he had done. (Genesis 2:1-3)
Remember the Sabbath day by keeping it holy. Six days, you shall labour and do all your work, but the seventh day is a sabbath to the Lord your God. On it, you shall not do any work, neither you, nor your son or daughter, nor your male or female servant, nor your animals, nor any foreigner residing in your towns. (Exodus 20:8-11)
