Witchcraft Connections
The different powers a witch can wield are numerous. Typically, witches have a set tradition they work in. But sometimes witches become enamored by all the various paths they can take and try to evoke the powers of too many different practices. This ultimately renders their witchcraft ineffective, and their connections to the ether insincere and weak. The skilled witch knows to build strong bonds with their Otherworldly Allies, keeping those bonds specific and powerful, resulting in the mastery of their witchcraft. Here the witch is confronted with various forms of witchcraft as the crows of omen fly in the distance.
Divinatory Meaning
When invoked, the Ten of Staffs tells you that you have taken on too much. This can mean too many projects or interests, or perhaps the burdens of others. It indicates that your interests may be in a corrupt pursuit of power or attention. You do not know how to manage what you take on and it leaves you with the burden of your choices with little you can do to handle it. You are about to be tested and it will bring a time of pain but if you are able to persevere, it will bring an end to your problems.
Divinatory Meaning (Banishing)
Banishing the Ten of Staffs represents a different kind of burden. It is the burden of fascination that propels itself into obsession, the burden of addiction. If you are involved in lawsuits or legal battles, they will not turn out favorably. In some cases, this card may also indicate a move to another country, not the country of birth.
