The Ten of Swords tells you that a huge disaster in your life has finally come to an end.
The Ten of Swords, when pulled upright, marks a huge disaster that has finally come to a head in your life. It's finally happened, even though it may have been unexpected. You feel as if you can't quite master your surroundings in this situation, but that is life, and what the Ten of Swords is trying to teach you. No matter how hard you try, you will not be able to control everything that happens to you.
When pulled reversed, the Ten of Swords indicates a defeat of some sort - you've hit rock bottom completely and totally. But, the good news about hitting rock bottom is that there is nowhere to go but up from here! This card reversed indicates that you're ready to give in, and go up. You want to feel powerful again, but the Ten of Swords has reminded you that there is no all powerful being, including you.
The Ten of Swords is telling you give in and go the only direction you can from here - up. Try again, and restart the cycle once again.
