Rude TAROT of Magic: Ten of Wands (Patreon)

I'm thinking about Cher (for some reason) and the ten of wands.

Apparently the ten of wands is the card of burden.

In "The Shoop Shoop Song (It's In His Kiss)", Cher is burdened by back-up singers who do not listen to her lyrics.

Cher firmly sings the praises of "his kiss" as the only method of identifying her partner's affections.

Her back-up singers ask (ad nauseum!) if the same love "his kiss" so clearly demonstrates can be found in his eyes, sighs, face, embrace, and arms. They even go as far as to inquire about "the way he acts."

It is here that Cher finally breaks. Burdened by her coterie, she finally gathers the courage to chide them mid-song. "You're not listening," she scolds, "to all I say."

I've always thought it was funny that Cher scolds her backup singers in that song. IMO, of course!
