In the upright position, the Ten Wands show that the person you are close with must share his burden with you. This may mean that they are struggling to complete their responsibilities and they are waiting for your support and strength. It may also mean that you are struggling hard to take responsibility for someone else. You may feel responsible for them in some way, as you want to keep them away from troubles and burdens. But when you are giving them your time or strength, you are also struggling hard to complete your own responsibilities. This card is an indication that you are doing too much for your own good. If you see someone in your life struggling with their responsibilities, it is time you take an honest look at yourself and share your own burdens with them.
