Card of the Week: XVI The Tower

Friends, I pulled The Tower for this week. There is no sugar coating this card. This is arguably the most dreaded card in the Major Arcana. It speaks to a transformation that is not just personal, but change that rips apart social fabric. When you are in Tower moments they feel like the end–but it is important to remember they are not. Only after The Tower falls and the fire dies out can you see the nightsky. The Star follows The Tower, but that knoweldge doesn’t make the moment of collapse any more easful to bear. 

Whether it is you in a Tower moment or someone you know, remember you are not alone and this is not the end. Reach out to loved ones or porfessionals when you need support. Take care of yourself this week, and remember there’s medicine in the moon always, but expecially this week.
