Your Love Tarot Card

The Tower

Sudden change, revelation and rebuilding. The Tower appears when something that seemed secure can no longer continue in the same way, opening the possibility of creating stronger foundations.

Your Love Tarot Message

A situation in which everything seems catastrophic.

A situation that looked solid, with good foundations, has collapsed.

For you, or for the person you are asking about.

Values are being replaced by their opposites.

But be careful, because this Love Tarot Arcana shows that everything may be too heavily based on material matters,

and that it is necessary to move toward more spiritual goals.

It is not tragic.

It is simply a necessary step so that whatever is built now can become more harmonious.

When the Foundation Is Unstable

When we go through a stage where we believe that material objects are more important and more powerful

than all the matters connected with spirit and mind,

then, without realizing it, we begin to build a Tower of errors,

false situations on a very unstable foundation.

Material things are important,

but the spiritual side matters even more.

And the rope holding everything up has broken.

Or is about to break.

What Happens in Relationships

In a home, this Tarot card often indicates a major argument,

a family with many differences.

New and firmer foundations must be made so the structure can be raised again on stronger ground.

If, by some miracle of engineering, it does not collapse under its own weight,

then it is very likely that we ourselves will end up pushing it down.

The Tower does not fall because destiny suddenly decrees it,

but because something inside it can no longer bear the tension it has been forced to hold.

Sooner or later it will collapse, and the fall will happen.

The Lesson Behind the Fall

During these times, we must understand that this is a lesson in humility,

because its teaching is that no one and nothing is invincible.

It often happens that most people focus only on the negative side of these periods or circumstances,

and ignore the great opportunity they have been given.

That opportunity is to correct our mistakes,

so we can move into better times and better circumstances.

Burning Away What No Longer Serves

The fire represented in the Tarot Arcana, The Tower shows that we distance ourselves from

and burn away everything negative and outdated,

but it also leaves behind what no longer serves us and brings forward everything necessary

to begin life again and recover what once seemed lost.

This is the powerful energy of the planet Mars.

As soon as we fall into the place where we must leave all negativity behind,

we receive the wisdom we need in order to survive.

And with that wisdom in our hands, we can take the first step back toward

the true path to enlightenment.

Building a tower of the mind toward the heavens — our life —

instead of a structure based only on material things.

The Spiritual Wake-Up Call

When wisdom must reach us because there is ignorance or blindness that needs to be removed,

The Tower appears in the Tarot answer so we can prepare ourselves.

That is when we decide to let go of everything that is no longer necessary,

and accept what we truly need.

Then life begins to move much more smoothly

and with less frustration.

If we ignore the warning of the Tarot cards when they bring us The Tower,

and cling to what is no longer useful to us, things will not move forward.

This is a spiritual wake-up call.

When The Tower comes near us, we must learn

that everything that seems secure may not truly be secure at all.

If we allow and accept the change that is happening, without trying to fight it,

we will be on the right path.

What collapses may have reached the point where it could no longer remain standing as it was.

Do not rebuild the same Tower on the same unstable ground.

Keep the wisdom, release what no longer serves you, and create something stronger.

Everything will be resolved.
