2. Meaning of 16
16 = 1+6 = 7 / Harmony and Balance, Duality
Major Arcana No. 16 <Tower> The number 16 of the card is **1+6 = 7**, which symbolizes the number 7 and means **harmony and balance**. Numbers. Corresponds to the 7th tank card. The first picture you will notice on Tarot 16 is the tower. Citing the Tower of Babel and comparing it to human arrogance, it is not much different now that it corresponds to a skyscraper. Skyscraper means a house that reaches to the sky, and as much as the Tower of Babel, it means great achievements made by man, desire for success, and superiority.
But this greatness resembles arrogance or bondage. A man and a woman are falling down. They do not have the power to stop them from falling by human force, so unfortunately they will fall to the end. However, if you look closely at the picture, the man's crown is taken off and flies away, but the woman's crown is written as it is.
This is a pretty meaningful hint. It means that women receive slightly less damage than men when they undergo the same changes, fluctuations, falls, accidents, and downfalls. If you look at the ratio, I think it would be appropriate if you look at it as 6.5 to 3.5. The lightning that falls on Tarot 16 means the lightning of Zeus. In Greek mythology, Phaeton, son of the sun god Helios, wanted to draw his father's chariot of fire. He sneaks out, and his inexperienced driving causes a major accident that sets the world on fire. Zeus then threw lightning to stop the Great Emperor, but Phaeton was struck by the lightning and died. The chariot of fire is superiority, and Phaethon is the greed to possess it. But he was greedy and unable to afford it, the world Phaeton burned was himself. Zeus' lightning is a rebuke for my mistake that came from outside.
The Tower Tarot card represents a picture of a tall tower on top of a craggy mountain. Spotlights and fireworks are burning from the windows of this tower. We can see people jumping off this card in despair. Longing to escape destruction and chaos. This card represents darkness and destruction on the physical side as opposed to the mental side.
The tower itself symbolizes an ambition built on the wrong foundation. Lightning breaks existing templates and creates opportunities for new ones. It represents an ambiguous and transitory conception of truth, a sudden feeling of inspiration that breaks through ignorance and false claims. We see lightning appearing from left to right, from sky to earth, and from surface to material world. Human characters emerge from towers that represent prisoners trapped in a demon card. The sudden change in their mind's perception through the image of lightning completely overturns all previous ideas about the connection of consciousness and self-will, causing them to fall and their heads to face the ground.
"flame" is actually a Hebrew letter. It has 22 flames and represents the 22 main arcana cards. The gray cloud symbolizes bad luck pouring down on everyone. Tower Tarot cards are influenced by Mars. There seems to be some people/arounds you believe are always there for you. A place or a person you can always rely on, it has changed and is no longer the same. And you no longer depend on those people or the environment. The problem is not that terrible, change is the essence of life, and trying to stop it is like swimming upstream without rowing. If you are dreaming of this, it may be time to return to reality. Freeing your soul in that way will make you in trouble.
You will be able to replace them with realistic and achievable dreams and goals more easily this month than any destructive delusion. Fantasies are important, but being realistic is just as important. You will be able to spend this time really well, especially if you know that you have all the resources you need to solve life's problems and do what you have to do.
When you see the tower tarot cards laid out, you may feel terrified, shocking, and insecure. You get confused when you want to know how misleading, innocent, and blind you are about a particular situation. So, what will you do in this surreal reality and how will you deal with it? You can experience sleepless nights, stress, sadness, anger and conflict. This is a common reaction to major changes in the outside world and within you.
3. Keywords of Tarot Card Tower: sudden change, structure, collapse, revelation
(One). When you look at love luck
Tarot No. 16 card as love luck, it can be seen that there is a problem with love. It refers to a sudden change in a relationship. It is a matter of feeling that the feeling of love for the other person has cooled down, but external factors also play an important role. The reason the smoke around the tower is seen as a fog is because of the affair king Zeus, but again, Tarot and mythology cannot be separated. Because when Zeus cheats, a fog surrounds him.
View the fog as a hindrance or obstacle to love by others. It means who gets involved in love affairs. However, since the tower card is a result rather than a process, what you cheated on in #15 came to be discovered in #16. If you are married, that will be the reason your family is shaken. Tarot No. 16 card tower is a card with the meaning of revealing secrets, so if you look at it as a love affair, the other party finds out that they are having an affair and breaks up or their affection quickly cools down.
(2). Financial Fortune, Job
Fortune Tarot No. 16 Card If you look at the Tower Card in terms of money luck, it means spending, and it foretells a fairly large loss of money. It refers to the risk of having to spend a lot of money because something unexpected happens, or if you are in the stock market, the stock price will fall, or if you are running a business, it will go bankrupt. This is also related to job luck, and this card often comes out when you are laid off, you have to resign, or when you change jobs. If this happens, you will be unable to avoid spending money, so you will not be able to think of a job and money separately.
There is a saying in the proverb that the tower will collapse, but the 16th card of Tarot may collapse. Anyone who falls off this card has no way of doing anything in the middle. You might be able to dilute the negative meaning with words like a fresh start, but that's only possible after you've fallen to the end. What is positive for each person may be different. If you are in a relationship and you love your boyfriend so much, it would be really sad if this happened, but if this card comes out at the right time to break up, it may be an opportunity to reveal the man's secret and make a cause.
However, it does not contain only negative content. You may lose your mind for a while due to a sudden shock, but just as there is no new birth without destruction, use the solid stereotypes and common sense that you have built up high like a tower as an opportunity to refresh, and if there is something you have to do, prepare a new beginning from the bottom. It is a card that also has the meaning of having to do it.
