The Tower

The Tower represents sudden change, upheaval, chaos, and revelation. This card embodies the destruction of false foundations and the shocking awakening that comes when illusions are shattered. It suggests that structures in your life built on shaky ground are collapsing, making way for something more authentic. The Tower encourages you to embrace the chaos as necessary for growth, release attachments to false security, and trust that destruction leads to renewal.

When reversed, The Tower indicates avoiding disaster, fear of change, or gradual transformation. You may be resisting necessary changes, clinging to structures that need to fall, or experiencing a slower process of transformation. This card can suggest that you're preventing a necessary breakdown or that you're recovering from a recent upheaval. It may also indicate that you're learning to embrace change more gradually.
