The reversed Ten of Wands can be a complex card to read on its own when it comes to feelings, so we recommend you accompany it with other cards to get a better grasp on where is its advice aiming at. As we’ve seen above the card is closely tied to the idea of burdens, so based on its accompanying cards it can mean this burden is being overwhelming or it’s about to find closure.

When you are asking for someone’s feelings towards you there are two main ways we can look at the card. If the overall reading isn’t too positive then it’s likely that they are currently too burdened to consider their feelings towards you. It’s even possible that trying to make up their mind in how they see you is a factor. In this context, it’s important to be supportive of them instead of focusing on the potential relationship. If the reading is more positive then it likely represents a turn in their life. They are finally letting go of the past and are willing to make a call on how they feel about you, in fact you probably played a role in this positive change.

Reversed Ten of Wands as Advice

By now you should have a clear grasp of what’s the advice this card is always offering: Let go of your burdens.

That said it’s important to understand what this advice truly means and how it can apply in your practical life. The reversed Ten of Wands isn’t advising you to let go of all your responsibilities, as this would only cause a larger problem in the long run. Rather, it’s telling you to make a headcount of your current responsibilities and prioritize them. There might be minor tasks you’ve picked up with time that aren’t as important nowadays as they once were. If you take extra courses or side-jobs ask yourself how intensive you need to be with their schedules, as life changes so does our available time, and you should never overextend yourself.

You should also remember that our burdens aren’t always just responsibilities. Maybe a secret has been weighing on you for a long time, or you are conflicted about your feelings. These are things you need to let go of as well, and that means that a reliable confidant might be your best aid moving forward. The reversed Ten of Wands is all about lightening our loads, but doing so smartly, ensuring we keep our energies for the things that do matter.
