The tower is the 16th card in the deck which makes it ultimately a numerological 7 is the end of the 7th number the end of a cycle which is written in the carriage 7 is the number where the 7 colors are represented by the 7 visible planets the notes in the scale etc So when the end has approached there is nothing to build on but the energy has to go somewhere. An irrevocable end and a beginning of something new like death but that is the irrevocability with which things happen. What is built in the visible world must collapse like a tower.

The lightning bolt that strikes the tower is a symbol of the Divine's influence on events that it is time to change the course of fate - something has to happen and it is the inevitable unexpected that happens and the world does not hold together. So the Tower's fateful irony of what must fall does so in some aspect anyway, sometimes for the very best. If there is a beginning, there must be an end. The unconditionality is found in the meaning of this card. Sometimes there are no grey areas in the world around us but the lines are very clear when it comes to this card.

There can be a lot in this card that highlights this from relationships that end or break up and ties that are cut and brutally broken. or financial stability that suddenly crumbles. legal matters that have a brutal outcome and show a painful process as a result. It can also warn that you are in the midst of something that can lead to destruction and devastation, also with consequences for others involved. It can also highlight that you rely too heavily on things that look so stable and suddenly collapse in front of you.

in the garden tarot, I have depicted the tower as a tree house built up in a tree that is struck by lightning. the tree is split and falls to the ground with two people in the tree house. The drama, which is a symbol of unexpected events that suddenly appear, has consequences for all those involved and serious repercussions for the individuals affected by them. It is supposed to illustrate drastic events that bring everything to a head. Autumn is the season when vegetation dies and life goes into hibernation.

The card reflects on the personal level personalities who are drastic and defiant, fear no dangers with a stake in their lives such as military, rescue personnel such as firefighters and police officers. people who are in the demolition business Those who come and issue drastic decisions and judgements can be in the catogony.
