Swords: Five

Astrological Correspondence: Venus in Aquarius. [For more information, click]

Keywords: defeat, loss, failure, conflicts.

Description: The Five of Swords indicates a verbal argument of sorts. The querent seems to have the upper hand, but it is definitely not a pleasant situation. This is also a card of walking away from a person or situation that is no longer useful in our life. Defeat in battle, a conflict will go against you. Cut your losses and swallow your pride. You may have to back-track and start again. The course you are on will bring nothing but misery. You must accept that a change of direction is necessary.

Upright Associations: Defeat, loss, failure, negative thoughts and attitudes. Winning at the expense of another. Communication problems, arguments, humiliation, insensitivity.

Reversed Associations: Mourning, a funeral, distress, remorse. Clearing the air, truth at any cost. Dejection, vengeance, vindication, end of slander.

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.
