Okay, so I’ve been getting really into tarot lately. And, like many people, my love life (or lack thereof) is a constant source of…let’s call it “fascination.” So, I decided to do a “Tower” focused reading specifically about love. I know, I know, the Tower card – scary, right? But I wanted to see what it had to say.
First, I cleared my space. This is important, you guys. I lit some incense (sandalwood, my favorite), put on some chill music, and just sat quietly for a few minutes to center myself. Gotta get rid of all that distracting energy, you know?
Then, I shuffled my deck. I use the Rider-Waite deck, because it’s classic and the imagery really speaks to me. As I shuffled, I focused on my question: “What does the Tower represent in my love life right now?” I wasn’t looking for a specific outcome, just trying to understand the energies at play.
I cut the deck into three piles, and then put them back together. I have this thing where I always feel like the cards are “talking” to me during this part. It’s hard to explain, but I just feel when it’s right.
Finally, I laid out the cards. It is a simple three-card spread:
- Card 1: The Tower Itself.
- Card 2: What’s being destroyed.
- Card 3: What will be revealed.
And boom, there it was. Let me tell you the result.
My Reading Result
Card 1: Of course is the Tower.
Card 2: I drew the Five of Pentacles.
Card 3: The Lovers.
My immediate reaction was “Oof.” Five of Pentacles, in this context, suggested that I might be feeling insecure or inadequate in relationships. Maybe I’m afraid of being vulnerable or not good enough. And the Tower, well, it’s clear that something needs to change.
But here’s the interesting part: The Lovers as the final card! This, to me, was a huge sign of hope. It doesn’t necessarily mean a new romance is on the horizon (although, hey, I wouldn’t complain!). It could mean that by facing these insecurities (Five of Pentacles) and allowing the Tower to do its work (break down those old patterns), I’m opening myself up to a deeper, more authentic kind of love. A love based on true connection and understanding, not fear or neediness.
So, yeah, it was a bit of a rollercoaster. The Tower is never a fun card, but it’s a powerful one. It’s about necessary change, even if it’s uncomfortable. And in the context of my love life, it seems to be pointing me towards a much healthier and more fulfilling path. I’m still processing it all, to be honest, but I feel…hopeful. And a little bit scared, but mostly hopeful. Will give you all an update later. Wish me luck!
