10 of Wands: Put it on the Backburner

When I worked in ESL, one of my bosses described me as a plate spinner.

I am sure many of you can relate to the dance of jumping from one task to the next, keeping them all at enough momentum to not lose balance and clatter to the floor.

The Ten of Wands image is a great example of this. A man is carrying ten large wands, his back bent from the weight. The message is clear and simple. . . you are doing too much.

Reversed, this card is a similar meaning, but it is leaning toward the inherent necessity for relief before burnout ensues.

November is a great month to pause and assess priorities before the holiday craze.
