Ten of Wands
X of Wands warns of overload, stress, and the exhaustion that comes from taking on too many responsibilities. It asks you to reassess what you carry and to ensure that effort is pushing you forward rather than wearing you down. Reversed, the card emphasizes delegation, setting boundaries, and allowing rest as a form of relief and purging. It reminds you that the work will remain and that asking for help or stepping back is a necessary and wise choice.
