LIII
The Lord of Ruin
Ten of Swords

Ten of Swords

Almost a worse symbol than the Nine of Swords. Undisciplined, warring force, complete disruption and failure. Ruin of all plans and projects. Disdain, insolence and impertinence, yet mirth and jollity therewith. A marplot, loving to overthrow the happiness of others; a repeater of things; given to much unprofitable speech, and of many words. Yet clever, eloquent, etc., according to dignity.

Malkuth of w (Ruin, death, defeat, disruption).

Herein the Angels hybmd and laqnm reign.
