What the Ten of Diamonds Means
The Ten of Diamonds is the suit complete: wealth, a large sum, success in business, and often a journey or a marriage that improves your position in the world. It is the most prosperous card in the deck. Old readers also saw a wedding in it, which in their day was as much a financial event as an emotional one. Its only shadow is the weight of what you own. Drawn for a question, the Ten says the material answer is a good one.
Ten of Diamonds in Love
A marriage or a commitment that brings security, or a partner who shares your idea of a good life. A journey together is often shown. For singles, a relationship with someone established. Keep feeling in the picture: the Ten can make a match look better on paper than in the heart.

The Suit of Diamonds
Diamonds are the suit of the material world: money, property, contracts, news, journeys with a purpose, and the people who deal in them. A reading full of Diamonds says the matter is practical, and that the answer will arrive as something concrete: a message, a payment, an offer, a trip. The suit is neither kind nor cruel; it describes what is on the table. Old cartomancers gave the suit the autumn, the harvest season, and matched it with the Pentacles of the tarot.
The Ten in Every Suit
The Ten means completion, the suit at its fullest; the suit decides where.
