Rid yourself of unhealthy anxieties and learn from your adversities so that you may free yourself from their bonds. REVERSED MEANING: Freedom from bondage and material concerns. Be bold enough to escape from your troubles and overcome any pride or self-interest that holds you captive to the mundane.

THE TOWER THE TOWER
This card indicates a sudden realization or shock that shakes one out of complacency. Disillusionment and confusion are natural reactions to catastrophes and violent changes, but with the overthrow of the old way of life and an end to cherished notions, true enlightenment can be gained. When one sees things the way they truly are, wisdom results. REVERSED MEANING: One gains what one wishes, but only at great cost. Be prepared for difficulties and hardships on the path to the goal. The way can be unpleasant and oppressive.
