The Ten of Swords represents endings, surrender, and the release of painful cycles. For Pisces placements, this card signifies a moment of deep emotional closure—where illusions, betrayals, or self-sacrificing tendencies must be left behind. Under Neptune’s influence, this may feel like a loss or a harsh reality check, but it is also an initiation into renewal and healing.
During Pisces season, this card urges you to acknowledge what has run its course. You may have held on too long to an idealized version of something or someone, only to face disillusionment. While this moment may feel heavy, it is also a spiritual turning point. Neptune’s energy reminds you that release is not failure—it is the beginning of something new.
Advice: Let go with grace. Mourning the past is natural, but don’t let it anchor you in suffering. Honor your emotions, but remember that endings clear the way for rebirth. Trust that your intuition will guide you toward healing, and allow yourself to step into a new chapter with wisdom and self-compassion.
Affirmation:"I release what no longer serves me, trusting that every ending is a doorway to my highest transformation."
