UPRIGHT 10♣

General: It’s a card of recklessness, which can lead to mistakes, and disengagement. It represents all things passing and fleeting, things not rooted permanently in reality or in the querent’s destiny. A specific function of this card is that it diminishes the import of the cards around, for better or worse. A disappointment will be small, but also a joy.

Love and Relationships: the Ten of Clubs represents acquaintances, people you know in passing, but relationships that are not serious or strong. It shows flighty people and fleeting bonds that probably won’t last (unless the cards show the relationship evolving). For those who dip their toes into more than one pool, this card can act as a warning of getting caught due to recklessness

Work and Money: the card stands for small amouts of money and very slight improvements. It shows that someone is incapable of saving up money and tends to spend it rather recklessly. The types of employment this card refer to have to do with the element of air (aviation, hostess, etc.) but it also stands for all types hand-to-mouth situations and all those situations where you show up, work for someone without contract and you are gone at the end of the day.

Other: psychologically it’s a card of carefreeness. It can mean that the person does not concentrate or try hard. It can signify that the querent leaves anything (a relationship, a job, a religion) as soon as things become too serious and require them to make a commitment and to persevere. It can also point to stepping into situations without forethought. The card symbolizes the element of air and the direction north. With positive cards and preceded by negative ones it can signify that something that had been thought to be a tragedy will be less serious. If followed by negative cards and preceded by positive ones, it’s the opposite.

Important Combinations:
10♣ + J♥ or Q♥ = not the most reliable lover

10♣ + A♠ = a passing disappointment
K♣R + 6♦ + 10♣ = the doctor is wrong in downplaying the symptoms

REVERSED 10♣R

General: it becomes a positive card. If the upright card is chancy and risky, the reversed card is a chance, and favorable opportunity.
