Day Nine, Ten of Disks, "Wealth"

 

My Inference:

As one might expect from a card labeled "wealth", a pile of currency is depicted. In the foreground are ten gold and green coins organized in the pattern of the Sephiroth. I'm unfamiliar with the symbols, but they seem to be arranged by category, with astrological symbols at the crest, followed by Hebrew lettering, then esoteric geometric designs. Yellow and green are colors that convey a more organic than arcane vibe. The use of Kabbalistic designs suggest that we are to seek wealth in spirit, more so than material wealth. We might infer that if we live in accordance with our nature and principles, a "true" prosperity follows.

Ziegler:

The astrological signs are Mercurial, signifying communication. "The origins of any type of wealth lie in human consciousness". 

Ziegler agrees that "Mercury in Virgo represents an overflowing on spiritual, emotional, and physical levels", but goes on to warn that "These riches must be shared (communicated) if they are to remain valuable." He warns against hoarding, as it's a sign of fear and "poverty mentality".

Rider-Waite:

The traditional interpretation is more straightforward: Family/generational wealth, riches, etc. More divinatory — a portent of wealth, rather than an admonition to put wealth to generous use.

Combined Reading:

In this series, we're not interested in divination, only meditations. The Ten of Disks invites us to define for ourselves what makes us rich: internal blessings like talents, ideas, compassion, and strength, or things by which we are surrounded, like companions, resources, and safety. Then we must contemplate one step further, asking ourselves how we can spread the wealth we possess with others.
