Upright Meaning

The Tower is struck by lightning, the crown falls, two figures are in the middle of the fall. This card is not a disaster, it is the cracking of a structure that hid the truth. The shaking wall was already without foundation, the lightning only made it visible.

There is the speed of Mars, sudden and clear. Being left exposed after the collapse is frightening, but being exposed is also the beginning of seeing. This card tells you an illusion is about to crack, and the shock has come to clear away something that does not touch your core.

Love

A truth is coming to light, the bond is either renewed through the truth or its structure collapses.

Career

An unexpected change, news that breaks the mould, a clearing away of the old.

Yes / No

MAYBE, reconsider after the shock.

Reversed Meaning

Reversed, the Tower means the shock is being delayed, or an inner shock is happening without showing on the outside. The collapse is in small doses, inside. Accepting the crack is always less painful than ignoring it.

Love

Forcing a bond that cannot continue, or a quiet break.

Career

Fear of collapse is stopping you from taking a step, or not accepting a change you sense coming.
