Description in booklet: A man bows under the weight of Fate.
The description is exactly that -- a man bows ... and above him are the heaviness of two large swords. He has a pan (part of weighing scale?) which lies in front of him. His right hand touches his forehead while the left holds on to a staff to support his body.
If we connect the Etruscan ten of swords to the rest of the suite, it is almost as if the struggle is over. The man has made up his mind and is now humbly surrendering to the consequences of his decisions.
There is no happiness (or sadness) in the card -- only a continued thinking process but this time, has a bit of surrender, and resignation or acceptance.
I believe there are a number of considerations to think of when we draw the Etruscan Ten of Swords --
a) what does fate hold for us?
b) What decisions have we made that we must now account for?
c) What are the possible consequences of these decisions - since we know that because we have made a decision to solve the struggle, that is now a step forward?
d) What can we anticipate and what would be the best way to deal with these?
Are we worrying about something that we need not be concerned with? Why don't we let nature take its course, after all, we have taken a card of Wild Fate?
Apparently, with the Etruscan Ten of Swords, it may tell us that we have done all that we could, thought about everything we could possibly think of ... now it is best for us to wait and let nature or fate take its course.
