Okay, so I’ve been diving deep into Tarot lately, and today I wanted to explore the “Ten of Wands” in a love context. I was curious about what it might signify as an outcome card, so I decided to do a little experiment.
First, I grabbed my trusty deck and gave it a good shuffle. I always like to spend a few minutes just connecting with the cards, you know? Holding them, feeling their energy. It’s like a little ritual before I start.
Next, I focused on my question. I visualized a potential relationship scenario I’ve been thinking about. I kept things pretty general, just focusing on the overall outcome, and I am quite worry about this, wondering what might happen.
Then, I laid out a simple three-card spread: past, present, and future. The Ten of Wands? It popped up right there in the future/outcome position. Uh oh, not super encouraging, but a card to be awared of, I thought to myself.
I took some time to really look at the card. The image is pretty intense, right? This person struggling to carry a huge bundle of wands. It just screams “burden” and “overwhelm.”
Took my notebook, and writed down all the related things I could recall.
- Burden: Feeling like you’re carrying the weight of the relationship alone.
- Overwhelm: Too many responsibilities, too much going on.
- Struggle: Difficulty in making the relationship work.
- Nearing the End: Could signify reaching a breaking point.
I spent a good while journaling about it. I asked myself some tough questions:
- Is this how the future of this relationship is likely going to feel?
- What can I do to reduce the chance of carrying too much?
- What am I afraid of in relationships?
So, my takeaway? The Ten of Wands as a love outcome isn’t exactly a “happy ever after” card. It’s more of a warning, i guess. A heads-up that things might get tough, and that I might need to either adjust my expectations or be prepared to shoulder a lot. But It helped me realize I needed to be mindful of not taking on too much in any relationship. It’s a reminder to communicate, set boundaries, and make sure things are balanced. I’m not saying it’s doomed, but it’s definitely a call to be proactive and avoid getting burned out. And I decided to share this to help people get a way of it.
