Dr.Nikki's Tarot -
The Tens
The Tens are subject to the rule of the Wheel of
Fortune.  The Tens tend to represent the end of
a cycle on a physical or emotional level.  
The Tens represent the maximum manifestation
of the quality of the element.  In other words, the
ten will represent the strongest reality (maximum
manifestation) of the suit’s element.  Hence, if
your Ten is the firey Ten of Wands, this card will
bring you to your strongest place.
The Kabalistic Link – The number Ten is linked
to Malkuth, The Kingdom, and Stability.  This
Sephirah, at the base of the pillar of equilibrium
represents the entire physical world, which
receives the emanations from all other Sephiroth
after they have been corrected and purified in
Yesod.  Malkuth is divided into the four
substances necessary for energy to be encased:  
Air, Earth, Fire, and Water.  Therefore, Yesod,
the form-giver, depends for manifestation on the
substance provided by Malkuth.
According to occult teaching, man descends
involuntarily from Kether, picking up functional
aspects of his personality.  Each Sephirah as he
descends, until he arrives at Malkuth, the kingdom of
this world – the end result of the Divine pattern.  Live
on the earth plane is to be lived.  The enjoyments,
blessings and lessons are meant to be savored and
learnt from.  This indicates a definite stage in soul
development that each must traverse and learn to
control before he attempts to ascend the ladder of
Sephiroth, to rest again in Kether.
