When the Tower appears it’s time stop avoiding something that you know needs to be felt. Not only are they returning to reality, but they are returning to their true nature as well. The people falling from the Tower are returning to earth. Once reality is accepted, it can then be healed. Lightning bolts symbolize flashes of divine magic and epiphanies at play in your life. The breakdown moment is surprisingly a blessing. Spirit/God/the Universe always sends along a proverbial lightning bolt to snap us out of delusion. Avoiding challenges doesn't make us strong, dealing with them does.ĭenial of truth is unsustainable. When you reflect on your life, and remember the moments that made you strongest, they are often the hard times. In that way, the old pains no longer keep us a prisoner, escaping reality.

It is a cathartic card, where old pains are finally felt, and released for healing. The Tower snaps us out of pretending we are not hurting. They would say things like, "I'm great! No sad things ever happened.what are you talking about?" The lightning on the card represents the inevitable crisis the Universe always sends, to cause those in denial to wake up and to heal what needs healing.Īre there unresolved hurts from the past that you need to heal, surrender and clear? What would you rather not deal with right now? Do you "zone-out" to deny reality?" Is there a fear that if you open yourself to feeling it will hurt too much and won't stop?ĭespite the destructive imagery, the Tower is one of the most healing cards in the tarot. In the Tower they could pretend there was no loss, change or death happening outside. Being numb kept them "safe," from being hurt by the past and the present. The Tower gained in size and made them numb. These walls separated them from feeling reality. They built walls around themselves that grew taller and taller. The people falling from the Tower were prisoners of their own making.
