The Ten of Swords tarot card shows a man on the ground dead with ten swords stabbed in his back, representing endings. Off in the distance, you can see the sunrise as if a new day or opportunity is on the horizon. The big distinction between the bright horizon and the dark sky can represent looking at things from different perspectives or decisions that need to be made. The dark can represent the unknown and the light can represent new opportunities. The Ten of Swords is a high number representing a form of completion or transformation into a new level.
