Ten of Swords
rock bottomendingbetrayalinevitable conclusion
A figure lies face-down with ten swords in their back, but a golden sunrise is breaking on the horizon. It is over — and that means something new can begin.
Upright Meaning
The worst has happened and it is over. This is dramatic and painful, but notice the sunrise on the horizon. You cannot go lower than the ground. The only way from here is up.
Reversed Meaning
Recovery from a devastating blow. Survival after what felt unsurvivable. Or resisting the end of something that has already ended in every way that matters.
