The Tower

Like the Death card, The Tower is one of the most feared cards in tarot, as it represents sudden upheavals, losses, and seismic changes, often due to external influences. However, the deeper message when you receive it upright is that a tower collapses due to a weak or flawed foundation. Destruction - whether in relationships, careers, finances, or even the truths and beliefs we once held - occurs to replace foundations that no longer serve us. Though disruptions are never easy, welcoming it will help establish a new foundation that can lead to revolutionary shifts in your life.

With The Tower reversed, there may be an internal struggle or crisis that you are either already anticipating or experiencing right now - a dysfunctional relationship, a financial windfall, career risks, or job loss. However, you might also be finding it challenging to accept this situation and may choose instead to resist or procrastinate. Conversely, the card may also suggest that you have already overcome the crisis, and now it's time to move forward. Either way, it serves as a reminder that experiencing a disaster can sometimes be a blessing in disguise, bringing about necessary transformation in our lives.
