@GreenTea you asked about the rest of the year but that was in 2020, so I'll do a little overview of 2021.

I don't exactly know what you've got going on, but it doesn't seem like a very good time.
Basically we've got some issues here with power, control, domination and rigidity and we also have some issues going on with trying to do it all, carrying a huge burden, not delegating and the need to release. We've also got Death which means something has to give and you're not going to have a choice in the matter.
I can't really decide if the Emperor in reverse is you, or if it's someone else. I'm getting the sense that it could be a situation that's translating that way and it's putting a burden on you to do it all on your own without much help and basically, you either have to put an end to it voluntarily or you'll be forced to because something breaks down completely.
Let's put it this way, whoever the individual is that's represented by the Emperor is intolerable. This is a really overbearing, controlling, demeaning, demanding type of energy. There is a leader here who needs to examine their relationship with power very closely. Some people lead by example and with good intentions and some people lead with fear. This is something we all have to recognize in ourselves when it comes up, and I think almost all of us have had to deal with someone like this as well and it's miserable. Either way, you have to examine your relationship to this energy. If it's you, how you can you lead better? Can you inspire people without fear? Do you leave people feeling powerful or powerless? There's a call here for the power dynamic to be broken, so that's either going to be you standing up to authority or to some establishment or hierarchy or you're going to be put in a position where you're going to have to change how you're doing things. Either way, whatever is going on is going to break down because the Death card is here and it says that this thing is over and you don't have much of a choice about it. I'll get to that.
The Ten of Wands is showing me that there's a really uneven distribution of work - whether that's tasks that need to be done, emotional labour that's being used, etc. Something is really unbalanced and a burden. This is why I'm not really sure what the Emperor is about, because sometimes when we bite off more than we can chew we can resent other people around us that are doing less and it can bring out power dynamics in our personality and it can lead to a certain amount of toxicity. Alternatively, if you're dealing with someone else who is forcing a lot of work on you and it's not your choice but you're being made to feel you HAVE to shoulder all this work, it's just not sustainable. Whatever the situation is here, it's just not working. It can't work. It's not designed to work and it was never going to work so in that sense, it's temporary by nature and it makes sense that we have the Death card (change, transformation) because it HAS to change because the situation is unstable. Ten cards are also a completion of a cycle, so whatever you've got going on, it is going to end and you are going to be way better off for it.
The Death card is basically like, yeah, this has gotta stop and it's going to stop now so you may as well let go already. This is the end of a major phase in your life and it's a GOOD thing. This is a significant transformation and it will bring on big change. The transformation is with you and your relationship to yourself. If you have any kind of unhealthy attachments or relationships you're in, it's time to let them go. You're going to outgrow where you are.
So basically, if you've got someone in your space abusing power it's time to tell them to fuck off and take on some of the work themselves because you're not doing it anymore. OR, if you're finding yourself having a negative relationship with power within your own being, it's time to cast that aside too. Either way, you can't carry everything on your own shoulders, you CAN delegate, you don't have to live by the phrase "if you want something done right do it yourself," and you can have a healthier relationship with your goals and ambitions and whatever you're working on in life.
If any of this makes sense to you that's great. I really don't know anything about you so I don't have anything to pull from except a general theme of what to look out for. If you need clarification let me know I can pull another card if none of this is resonating.
