🚪 "Storm and Thunder" - The Tower and a Major Bang
After facing "The Devil" in our last chapter of our "journey of the fool" sometimes also referred to as "the journey of the hero" in the Temple of the Secrets, we are still not safe.
Even if we managed to avoid Lucifer's traps, now, all of a sudden a flash of lighting strikes...
A sudden and unexpected end in contrast to the natural end because the time was ripe, with the card "XIII - Death".
Here we have a sudden interruption. Accidents, disasters, illness, suffering. All the things we are afraid of, suddenly and unexpectedly come into our lives here..
In retrospect however, this situation can also be perceived as a liberation and is therefore also called "the freeing from prison". In life, we often create many things and circumstances around us, which are to create stability and safety. But sometimes one exaggerates it a bit and eventually locks oneself up completely in a solid crust. That is when the lightning strikes and shreds the walls with noise! When the smoke of the explosion is gone and we have calmed down again, we can see what a beautiful flowering meadow we are actually sitting on...
To find out your Personal TAROT Card, just add day, month and year of your date of Birth:
dd + mm + jjjj = xxxx.
Now add the four digits of the resulting number:
x + x + x + x = nn
If the resulting number is greater than 22 please add n + n again.
Any result equal to or smaller than 22 is your personal number with 22 representing 0

This one does feel to represent my life this month :) When the 'tower' one builds in the false idea of 'safety and protection' in all our modern trappings are stripped away, we are left with the bare ME in all of it. Sometimes, after the fact, it is good to have one's tower destroyed: It makes one's life paths more apparent and leaves the view to new or different one's open.
Another wonderful and powerful piece.
Strangely I hear that from a lot of people. Weird times... but the good times are just around the corner. Plus, like you say, its all a matter of perspective :-)
This is the best Tower ever! After the devil (delusional entrapment) and death (dead thinking) has been overcome, out of the darkness, the fog of detoxification, the lightning of divine inspiration may strike (you down!): that type of energy that splits the brain in two: thinking and intuiting. You chose your side!
Phew, always holding my breath, when I see you commenting on my Tarot. Such deep knowledge and understanding. Thank you for your kind approval! :-)
This one has a great dynamism Reinhard. Funny how many people interpret the card Death as "bad news", but it is really the "Tower" that symbolises the cosmic kick in the arse.
You are absolutely right, Leo! The Tower is the bad news... but sometimes, its just that kick, what we need ;-)
I just found this. I thought you might find it amusing. ;-)
Hahaha.. yes, that is funny! I actually wanted to create something like this, where it stops at a particular tarot card, when you click. Just not computer savvy enough :-/
I also wanted to do that, where it stops on a particular card. I even have the script for it. It runs through the cards, and then you click to stop the shuffling and see Your card. Just didn't get around to actually finishing it all off.. One of these days... that, and about 30 other projects.
Hahaha... yes, I know the feeling. Never enough time...
So beautiful work.
Many thanks to you :-)
now i will have to check out all of them... ! :-)
this is awesome !!
So happy you like it. Hehe... also like the fact, that I could spark your curiosity for more :-)
