- Burden, responsibility, hard work
- Close to the harvest, close to relief
In a reading: put down burdens that aren’t yours to carry — your harvest is close.
The wands are literally covering his face on the Ten of Wands, so he can’t see through them — which is why I say this card can mean you need to put down other people’s burdens, because you can’t see the forest through the trees.
The real story is he’s about to reach home, which is the most important part of this card. He planted these ten wands, and now he’s about to lay the burden down and bring in the harvest. So this can also mean you’re very close to reaching a goal.
