The Tower card in the Tarot represents the demise of old ideologies. A structure has abruptly and dramatically collapsed, causing chaos and distress, yet it has also cleared the way for something new to be created. This card's basic symbols are a tower on a rocky outcrop, a bolt of lightning, two individuals descending from the tower, and waves crashing below.
When the Tower card appears erect in a Tarot reading, it signifies a great transformation. You will have to let go of the past, which could mean losing money, security, or short-term satisfaction. This is a period of turbulence, but you can capitalize on the disaster. Replace your old tower with something superior.
When the Tower card appears reversed in a Tarot reading, it indicates that you are stuck in a rut or in a poor circumstance. You must mix things up. You are probably aware of this, yet you have been putting off making a significant adjustment. Examine the routines and traditions that you've been blindly adhering to. Consider how they are limiting you. What can you get go of to make place for something better?
In a Tarot love reading, the Tower card indicates that significant changes are taking place. If you're single, it could signify that you need to rebuild yourself from the ground up before you can have a relationship. If you're in a relationship, it may have to come to an end, indicating a split or divorce. Even if the connection remains intact, it will undergo fundamental alteration in some form.
