Ten of Swords

The Ten of Swords shows a man lying face down, apparently dead, with ten swords in his back.  A red cape drapes over the lower half of his body as a sign of dignity as he leaves this world.  While the dark sky is ominous, the sun is rising on the horizon, bringing a renewed sense of  hope and opportunity. The calm sea in the background also brings solace, suggesting that  even in times of darkness, there is a sense of peace and calm to be found.
