Ten of Wands Upright Draw Meaning
The Ten of Wands is part of the Tens in the Minor Arcana–a significant number that shows the completion of a cycle. Therefore, just as the town is within reach on the card, you’re just a short distance from the end of your goal or struggle. Finally, the awards you have long sought after are within reach. Now that you have attained those fruits, you have to deal with the consequences.
After all, certain goals in life bring about a tremendous amount of responsibility or obligation. Yes, you’ve reached a point where you can check something off the list, but now you also have new commitments that have to be carried out. Yet, this may not be what you expected, and so you’re struggling with whether or not you should let it go or keep trying to bear the weight.
The Ten of Wands seeks to remind you that everything you decide to do puts another burden on you. Do you really want to weigh yourself down? If no, you need to examine your current lifestyle. Figure out what activities are working well for you and what you can put to rest. Manage your time more proactively, and prioritize the things that make you happy. Don’t let internal and external conflicts bog you down.

On the other hand, the appearance of the Ten of Wands usually means you’ve hit a rough patch in your relationship. Either you or your loved one needs support, or you need to re-examine your feelings for this other person. Don’t pretend that problems don’t exist, because that will only hurt you both in the end.

The chances are that your supervisors and coworkers will be willing to lend a helping hand when it comes to your overbooked schedule and numerous tasks. Don’t lose heart. As long as you stay on top of your duties, everything will work out.
In terms of finances, that same stress you feel with work will be found in money worries. Think of the saying, “expect the best, but plan for the worst.” Don’t merely ignore problems and hope they disappear. Set out to rid yourself of them once and for all with careful consideration and strategic spending and saving.
