Card 1 - Seven of Wands

The Seven of Wands has an image of a man who's standing on a tall hill and being challenged by the warring parties below. He appears to be protecting this role and attacking in retaliation. It is thrilling to notice that within the Rider-Waite depiction of the Seven of Wands, the person is wearing no longer matching shoes. This is connected to the symbolism of being on uneven floor or no longer having a stable footing in life.

Card 2 - Ten of Swords

Another one in every of the maximum putting and ominous cards inside the deck, the Ten of Swords suggests a man mendacity flat at the ground with his face dealing with the dirt. He is covered with a red cloth from the chest down to his legs. Ten long swords are stabbed into his back, he won't have seen this quit coming. There is a terrible stillness within the air: the sky above him is black and cloudy indicating the fear and negativity related to dying. The waters in the front of him are still, with no ripples - adding to the eerie stillness and finality of this card. Looking into the horizon, in the east, the solar is rising, and the climate appears very calm no matter the darkness. The Ten of Swords seems to intimate that this is the lowest factor in one's existence, and it can not get worse than this. At least, even on this state, the sun is rising.
