Ten of Wands

Element: Fire

Planet / Zodiac: Saturn in Sagittarius

Upright

You are carrying a massive burden and have taken on too many responsibilities at your own expense. Heavy physical work has obscured your overall vision, leading to severe mental strain. Delegate tasks before you break down.

Reversed

Releasing burdens, delegation, collapse under pressure, and avoiding chores. You are finally learning to drop obligations that aren't yours, or are facing intense burnout. Prioritize your health and drop the baggage.

Symbolism

A man bent double under the heavy weight of carrying ten thick, bundled staves toward a nearby town.
