Card Description
The originally majestic and towering structure was struck by a sudden lightning bolt, leading to its collapse and burning. This thunder and lightning represent divine anger and punishment. The golden crown on top of the tower has also been struck down by the lightning, indicating that power, wealth, and achievements have disappeared in this sudden change. The tower symbolizes destruction, meaning an unexpected disaster. The two men falling from the tower seem to be the previous Emperor and the Cleric. Their downward position and terrified expressions indicate that no one, regardless of their class or wealth, can escape the sudden disaster. If there is indeed such a thing as luck in this world, the probability of misfortune is equal for everyone, and so is good fortune.
Interpretation of the Card: On a stormy night, the tall tower standing on the mountain peak is easily struck by lightning because it is too prominent. Similarly, if a person is too showy and arrogant, they are likely to become a target for others' attacks. Due to arrogance and complacency, you may easily ignore the surrounding environment, and an accident will attack you at that time.
Upright
Lack of restraint in desires leads to being in an unfavorable situation without realizing it. When a drastic change comes, you suddenly wake up, realizing that what you've been doing isn't as important as you thought. Don't always place too much emphasis on your own interests; everything can only be dealt with after this situation passes. The changes you experience may not be pleasant, but they indicate where your shortcomings were during that period. In a relationship, there may be a major change, and you might face a situation you don't want to see.Reversed
