Tower Tarot Card

What is the Meaning of The Tower Tarot Card?

A pillar of brick and stone rising high into the clouds struck down by lightning and set ablaze by the sheer power of nature makes up the startling image that is The Tower.

When this card appears to you in a reading it can be quite a startling sight.

The Tower represents change. The proverbial stuff hitting the fan.

This card depicts to us unruly and unavoidable chaos, though this is seldom an omen to be feared.

Change is coming, and you may not be prepared for it, though with all things in life this change is met with both positive and negative aspects.

When one portion of your life is corrupted, other aspects of it thrive. The Tower is about give and take, even if it leaves you temporarily feeling hopeless.

The Tower brings forth world-shattering devastation if you let it. A card with this sort of edge is a warning, but not a sentence.

Keeping a calm mind when faced in a time of hardship means that the change being brought about is a learning lesson as well as a catalyst for new opportunities.

The Upright The Tower Meaning

the-tower-tarotJust like the other cards making up the Major Arcana it’s important to observe the cards appearing around The Tower and its position in your spread.

These aspects will help you to better determine the part of your life in which The Tower is sounding its alarm.

If The Tower appears in your past position it’s pointing to a situation in your past that hasn’t been properly resolved.

This could have been a falling out with a friend, a feud with a family member, or an explosive break up.

Whatever the case may be, this event hasn’t been properly resolved and is the root of your current situation.

If you feel as though you’re in a good place, be on guard for the past to resurface.

The Tower in your present position means that big changes are coming.

It’s important to consider where you are currently in life and answer honestly if any aspect of it is faltering.

Perhaps you’ve been ignoring the red flags.

If all truly seems well then you can expect news that seemingly comes out of the blue.

Be on guard and look to the card sitting in your past and future positions to try and determine which part of your life it may be affecting.

When appearing in a future position The Tower is acknowledging that the warning signs have already been brought to light.

Change is inevitable, but this is the best-case scenario as you have already, either consciously or subconsciously, been expecting it.
