La Maison de Dieu - The Tower - Arcana Major XVI

The House Of God

The Tower (or The House Of God) is a tall and imposing building, with golden battlement and that proudly runs in a cloudless sky.

This building was destroyed by a lightning. Two persons are falling from the tower; according to some people, they are the architects of the tower.

This card represents our presumptions.

The Tower reminds us that having too much ambition, being too materialistic led to the disaster, as these "defects" impede our ability to listen to common sense.

This tarot card also tells us that we must not be complacent about flattery.

It also reminds us that we must remain faithful.

The flames that surround this building under demolition represent the psychic, spiritual and material worlds.
