Upright
A figure lies face-down with ten swords in his back beneath a dawning sky — the worst point, and also, notably, dawn. Upright, Ten of Swords is a definitive, painful ending that has nowhere further to fall.
Reversed
Reversed: recovery beginning after the worst has passed, or resisting an ending that has already happened.
