The Tower
Video Interpretation: The Tower
Principle: Experiencing the separation, or duality, provided by the ego. Learning the lessons associated with not being connected or experiencing what it’s like to be disconnected. The glorification of man.
Key Words: Upheaval, restructuring, a new order, disaster, sudden change, revelation, being punished, thought concepts challenged.
Key Feelings: The feeling that “I” have done something wrong.
Description: This card represents the power of the ego and all the lessons associated with it. It is the glorification of the intellect at the expense of the divine. It is about what “I” do, or what man does. It is the drive to be unique and experience life as being separate. It represents all the manmade structures and tools that feed the illusion of separation. Upright, this card represents that fallacy of this thinking and shows that when you do not follow the rules of the divine, you do not have a foundation to stand on. The ego, set free without divine guidance, will always destroy itself. This is the one card in the Major Arcana that is inharmonious in the upright position. You are encouraged to partner with the divine in order to build an understanding of the difference between the intuition and the ego.

The Tower (↓)
Video Interpretation: The Tower (↓)
Principle: Realizing the connection of man with everything, aware of the duality that the ego wants us to experience. Learning the lessons associated with being connected. Being confident in man, yet glorifying the divine.
Key Words: Avoidance of disaster, acceptance of change, admiring your accomplishment, pride, disconnected from the divine.
Key Feelings: The feeling that “I” have done something and that’s ok.
Description: Reversed, this card represents that the ego is in play yet it is tempered or restrained. There is the feeling of fear that prevents the unleashing of the full power of the ego. It is an art learning to find balance between what we identify with and what we really are. In this position, the energy is more humble, cautious and fearful. Disaster can be avoided or mitigated when one is aligned with the divine.
