One Card Tarot Reading

This is a simple one card reading from the Major Arcana of the Oxford Tarot.
The energies surrounding your question are summarised as follows:

 

16 - The Tower

Disarray, destruction, sudden and unexpected catastrophic change - possibly involving a significant "fall from grace".

Here is the swift, shocking, unexpected, sudden change - the bolt from the blue - that happens only very rarely, but makes a major impression when it does ! Plans may collapse. Career prospects may fall at a stroke of bad luck or judgement (such as when politicians are caught in an ill-judged situation or indiscretion). Beware ! Be careful. Apparently solid structures and circumstances of life may crumble.

More positive interpretations may include the destruction of corrupt practices or institutions, or the demolition of unsightly and purposeless structures. In any case, someone may need to start over again.

Milder interpretations may include minor emergencies concerning property or buildings. The problem may not be severe or expensive but it is likely to need swift attention - such as roofing tiles disturbed by a storm, a gas leak, or plumbing emergency. These examples are all matters that may disrupt other plans but can be completely resolved reasonably quickly.

Remember, you can always ask your guardian angel for help with the challenges in your life.
