The Tower

Tower

Tarot Voyager

The tower symbolizing the " Law of Purification", is a revolutionary cleansing of all levels of your being. The pre-Columbian Inca warrior jumping from the tower symbolizes the purging of your impurities. The Burning Effigy represents the burning up of your dark aspects. Burn out what does not belong in your life.

The view of the sun, your eye, from the top of the tower symbolizes intense self examination. See the mental patterns and beliefs  you must destroy. See the negative emotions you must put to flame. See the physical toxins you must expurgate. See the worldly situations situations and circumstances you must change. See the aspects of yourself which are not really you that must be sacrificed.

By leaping into the alchemist's furnace, melt down the old inner and outer structures. Thus a metamorphosis occurs, symbolized by the red winged black bird, the first bird to herald the  return of spring. There is a new dawning and you restructure your life.

You may, however, lack the will of the warrior and stay trapped in your tower, your structures.

You may not have the courage to take the leap into a fiery transmutation.

Or you may project your own frustration and anger onto others and disrupt their lives.
