高塔
The Tower shows a tall structure struck by lightning, flames erupting from its windows, figures falling through the air. This card represents sudden, dramatic upheaval—the shattering of structures, beliefs, or situations that seemed solid but were built on false foundations. While frightening, the Tower brings necessary destruction. What falls was never truly stable; what is revealed needed to come to light. The Tower clears away illusion, leaving raw truth in its wake. When this card appears, expect the unexpected. Embrace the chaos as a catalyst for profound transformation. From the rubble, something more authentic will emerge.
