The Tower upright
Lightning strikes a tower built on shaky ground and the crown blows off. The Tower is sudden disruption that exposes what was never solid, painful but clarifying.
The Tower reversed
Reversed, you may be avoiding a necessary shake-up, or the change is happening more slowly and internally. What cannot stand will not stand.
In love and relationships
A revealing moment; truths come out and foundations get tested.
At work
A sudden shift at work; rebuild on firmer ground.
A question to reflect on
What in my life was built on a shaky assumption?
