I stumbled upon this thing called the Tower card in a tarot reading the other day. It’s one of those cards that can really make you go “whoa” when it pops up. So, I got curious and decided to dive into it, you know, just to see what the fuss was all about.
I started by just pulling the Tower card out of my deck and staring at it for a while. It’s got this picture of a tower being struck by lightning and people falling out. Not exactly a feel-good image, right?
Then I thought, “Okay, let’s see if I can use this for a simple yes or no question.” I shuffled my deck, focused on a question I had in mind, and drew a card. And guess what? It was the Tower!
- First try: I asked, “Should I take that new job offer?” Boom, Tower. My gut reaction was, “Oh crap, this is bad.” I mean, the picture is pretty intense.
- Second try: I asked a different question, “Will I have a good time at the party this weekend?” Tower again! Now I’m really starting to wonder what’s up with this card.
So, I spent the next few days doing more of these yes/no readings with the Tower, just to see what would happen. I asked about all sorts of things, big and small. Sometimes the Tower would show up, sometimes it wouldn’t. It was kind of a mixed bag.
Here is what I did next:
- Mixed the cards up.
- Asked a simple yes or no question.
- Pulled a card.
After a bunch of tries, I started to see a pattern. When the Tower showed up, it usually meant that my initial “yes” or “no” answer might not be the whole story. It was like the card was telling me to look deeper, to expect the unexpected. This card made things feel uncertain.
For example, with that job offer question, maybe the Tower was saying, “Yes, take the job, but be prepared for some major changes.” Or with the party question, maybe it meant, “Yes, you’ll go to the party, but it won’t be what you expect.”
It took some time, but I eventually figured out that the Tower isn’t necessarily a bad card. It’s more about change, upheaval, and sometimes, things falling apart so they can be rebuilt in a new way. When it comes to yes or no questions, the Tower card is definitely not a clear yes or no, its more like a maybe.
It’s not a simple “yes” or “no.” The Tower can indicate significant changes or upheavals related to the question. The outcome may involve a major shift or transformation rather than a straightforward answer.
My takeaway from all this?
The Tower card is a reminder that life isn’t always black and white. Sometimes the most important thing is to be open to change and to trust that even when things seem chaotic, there’s a bigger picture that we might not see right away. It was a wild ride figuring all this out, but hey, that’s what makes life interesting, right?
