Lightning strikes The Tower, shaking loose the foundations of its structure. This chaotic force unearths the turmoil of its shadowed interior. The falling figures may seem lost within its impending terror, unaware that the water below will catch their fall. Once the dust has settled, the light will once again shine through.

Description
The Tower marks those unexpected devastations and powerful contractions that corrode our spirit or sense of security. When we feel crushed under the weight of circumstance, or experience a traumatic event that casts a shadow in our life. It can also point to situations in which the mind, body, and spirit are not working in harmony due to passive or unhealthy choices. If left ignored, these can leave a lasting chasm in our wellness.
Breakthrough and Liberation
From the depths, this key leads to a breakthrough in consciousness, allowing us to free ourselves from the unnecessary burdens which no longer serve us. What is the greater lesson to be learned? Know that for every difficult situation we face, we are forced to grow from experience. Liberation comes from letting go and rising up, and sometimes to reach this, we must first hit a low point. Without the darkness, there is no light.
Reversed
This card denotes the intense and deeply meaningful lessons which are often revealed through devastations - creation and destruction masked under the same guise. As a result, your priorities may become crystal clear once everything else has been stripped away. What you have left are the exposed elements of your heart. Your raw, pure intent. Your power and strength.
