The Tower
Upright Meaning
This card announces a sudden and dramatic change that shakes the foundations of what you thought was stable. The Tower tells you that while the upheaval may feel devastating, it is clearing away what was built on false ground. What remains will be truth, and from the rubble, you will rebuild something far more authentic.
Reversed Meaning
When reversed, this card suggests that you may be resisting a necessary change or trying to hold together something that is already crumbling. The Tower reversed warns that the longer you resist, the more difficult the eventual transition will be. It encourages you to face the truth and begin rebuilding with courage.
