The Tower in 4 Minutes

The Tower Upright: An explosion. A violent upheaval. The blasting apart of towering defences. A break up or the breaking apart of a long standing situation. Inevitable, unavoidable change, perhaps prompted by external circumstances. Anger, disruption, emotions erupting, devastation, or finally escaping from a prison. Corruption being exposed. Earthshaking change. Taking on a drastic self or situational improvement program, exercise, diet, house cleaning. Exploring deep trauma or long buried experiences in therapy. Can be a blow to your ego or work, professional experience. Being unexpectedly fired or relocated. Major change. A bone rattling truth. This can lead to tremendous growth. Flash of enlightenment, revelation, the lighting bolt of inspiration. Seeing or realizing something that you cannot “unsee.” The burning away of what is false or corrupted.

The Tower Upright Best Course of Action: If it hasn’t already occured, prepare for a change. Break out of your prison. Leave. Accept a major restructuring. Bust out of complacency. Embrace the change. If you are in a crisis, dig deep with professional therapy or, if unaffordable, with a trusted friend. Eliminate the unworkable or the inhibiting. No long accept ignorance as an acceptable course of action. See. Improve. Change. Have the courage. Save yourself. Weather the storm.

The Tower Reversed: Remaining stuck. Sitting on top of explosive emotions. A long standing position or situation which will soon be coming to an end. Anxiety and desire to make a change but being unsure how to proceed. Buried anger. Suppressed emotions. Resisting inevitable change. Bailing out on yourself. An explosion coming. It may not be time to change...yet. Or it may be time to exit before the storm comes. A corrupt organization heading towards exposure. A coming earthquake. Can indicate the emotional or professional debris AFTER an explosion or major change. Not knowing where to go to for help.

The Tower Reversed Best Course of Action: The time to change is coming. Accept that there is buried “stuff” impacting a situation or relationship which you may be unable to see yet. You may be called upon to keep a lid on your emotions and reactions, especially in matters of personal safety or interacting with others with unknown agendas. Watch your back. Make an escape plan. Escape may be through the basement or underground. There is much rumbling underneath the surface.

everybody gangsta till the tower comes out

It's about time for this. You know what comes after the tower? The star, a fresh start.

The Tower flashed itself at me while shuffling and I knew immediately I was going to lose my job over an injustice involving middle management. I’ve commented on this video before about the towers being a fact of life that propel us forward. The exit interview must have been surreal for them, because when they handed me the letter of termination I just said thank you for the opportunity and goodbye. Prior to tarot I would have gone full king of swords on them - but I understood that the outcome would have been the same. Silent power.

I have learnt not to fear the tower, a door closes and another opens. Lost a job to be a blessing in disguise!

Your interpretations have been INCREDIBLY resonant with my intuitive readings.
Thanks for all you do!💗

In the 2 years I’ve done tarot, I’ve always worried about one day pulling this card. Today, the day I broke up with a long term bf, is the day I finally pulled it. Makes sense.

I’m currently watching Lindsey graham getting yelled at in the airport. I quickly asked “what does this mean?” and then pulled this card. I’m totally new to tarot and had to look up the meaning.

[thelocalfortuneteller]

Embrace the tower. If it wasn't archetypal of the human experience, it wouldn't be in the deck. Free yourself from the illusion of control and ride the explosion.

I love your descriptions. I see myself coming often to your posts as I am learning tarot. Thank you!

[AidaBBBBB]

Thanks for this. The tower has come up a couple times recently and all I felt was fear. I needed someone with a level head to talk about this so I didn’t just panic

[RandomPersonsOpinion]

Your Videos are so helpful for beginners like me.
You really get to the core meanings. Which was my goal to learn the core meaning of each card, before I learned anything else. I also love linking the symbolism in the art in each card. It helps me to connect emotionally to the card. Thus remembering it easier. Thankyou for this complete guide for the common beginner like myself 🥰💗

[starryeyedtarot]

I've always said that this is the only card that I fear/hate. I still dislike it, but thank you for clarifying. <3

[heresthadude]

I'll say the Tower of Gray was violently blasted apart.

[rebeccaramberg]

I love your interpretations they make things so clear for me. Thank you always ♾💚🤍

[AlexanderTheOracle]

Seeing this on 04/11/2021 New Moon in Aries at 1.1K lights and 11 dislikes. The reading I have done is so clear. Have been watching you for some months now, almost a year. Thank you!

I got the tower before winning the lottery. It was a major tower moment indeed.

[soulsearchtarot]

I love the Tarot. Much like literature and art, it is a depiction of life and the human condition xo

[CMB]

The Tower is a card that I relate to a lot.

My life has been, for lack of better terms, nothing but disaster. Every thing that I have done and fought hard for these 32 years of my life has crumbled within literal seconds. And it feels like every week there is a crisis, wether extremely long work weeks, my car combusting, getting run over, and all sorts of trauma. Life is nothing but chaos and destruction.

But I'm still alive. For what little that matters. And I'll be alive when the next storm comes and the next tower falls.

[leannecaprice]

Lordy! So many tower moments in my life of 57 years.

[butterflymoon]

This is the potential of a relationship with a soulmate I haven't even met yet.
