Card for today, 30th August 2021

Rider Waite card No 16, XVI The Tower

Tower

Astrological Correspondence: Mars

Keywords: sudden change, pride, houses and buildings, liberation

Description: The Tower card first and foremost illustrates that neither physical nor emotional structures that we build are permanent and stable instead they can be destroyed suddenly, thereby initiating change that we tried to avoid. The sudden change resembled by the crumbling tower reminds us of letting go of outgrown beliefs and values, of letting go of an illusion, an unhealthy relationship, and an old way of life. The sudden change frees us to face the unknown, frees us to move forward instead of stagnate, frees us from social conventions and enlightens us on our path so that we reach a new level of understanding about our purpose in life.

Upright Associations: Sudden change, abrupt end of a friendship, unexpected events, bankruptcy, downfall. Crisis, clearing out your life, collapse, release of tension.

Not embracing the inevitable change brings out the negative elements that the Tower also depicts, being struck down by one's own doing, by vanity and the inability to change so that one remains stagnant.

Reversed Associations: A change for the better, risks. Time to put your life back together. Catastrophe, inability to release tension, containment. holding on to your old life.
