Spiritual Growth with The Tarot - 16, THE TOWER

Spiritual Growth with The Tarot - 16, THE TOWER

By TarotMeister, CTM

At the top of a tall steep mountain is a stone tower which is being struck by lightning, on a black menacing night , dislodging the top, which is in the shape of a huge golden crown. Flames are shooting from the tower's top and windows . A man and a woman tumble from the top of The Tower, looking frightened. On the woman's head is a golden crown . Overthrow and fear are symbolized on this card .

So, what can the spiritual lesson be, here? Well, The Tower, itself, symbolizes the fabrication of reality we construct for ourselves as we deal with this physical world we live in. The lightening is the flash of understanding When it actually gets through to us that this material worldwe live in is definitely not all there is; there is much, much more to reality. The Devil confirmed that the chains which seem to bind us to material reality, are loose and can, be removed easily. The Tower is the instant when we realize it !

This flash of understanding can be very upsetting when it comes. This is why so many people try so hard to believe only what they can hold in their hands or see . It's understandable; at that moment we have to realize when everything changes; the things we thought were all of our world and universe are, actually, a very small and relatively unimportant part of reality as a whole. The spiritual reality is so much bigger and more important than the things to which we have devoted our lives. At first, this takes a good deal of adjusting, but the adjustments we make are way more than worth the time it takes, and even the initial shock when we realize it.

I repeat this often throughout these articles but it is worth repeating. "We are a principal part of the Creative Mind which IS the Universe. Since that is the case, being an integral part of the Whole means, we share the creative power of this Creative Intelligence to change things about our own personal reality. All we have to do is realize it and, then, learn how to use It. The Tower represents the first step - the realization. Throughout a regular practice of meditation and a lot of reading of spiritual materials by those who may be further along the path than we are , we begin to learn how to put this knowledge to use.

When meditating on The Tower, let it bring to your mind that you have, indeed, had that flash of understanding and, if you keep that in mind and stay on the path, your life will just keep getting brighter and brighter.
