The Tens in the Tarot Ten represents the beginning of a new stage of development. The Ten can be the final stage or completion but more often than not it is the extreme expression of the energy of the suit and is an overdo. It is the idea of one too many with the power of a zero behind it but contained in the 10 is the promise of a new beginning as the 10 reduces back to a 1. The number 10 can also signify or suggest a group of people contributing to the overuse of the energy of this suit.
