10 of Swords
A figure lies face-down with ten swords driven into the back, while in the distance a golden dawn breaks. It is the absolute ending, the worst outcome, rock bottom reached. Yet nothing more can go wrong: the pain is over and a new day begins.
Meaning
In the light · upright
Liberating ending, hitting bottom and being reborn, accepting closure, dawn.
In shadow · reversed
Ruin, total betrayal, victimhood, dramatizing the ending.
Mantra
“It has hit bottom: now only the dawn remains.”
