Wounds are still fresh, but you have also come to an understanding that the betrayal that you suffered needed to happen in order for you to move forward in some way. It was inevitable, and perhaps you have seen it coming for some time now. What is more important is that you are now focused on recovery.
Compassion and understanding breeds generosity, sharing and charity. One gives away the fruits of one’s labors with the understanding that the situation of having the upper hand can be reversed at any moment.
Greater forces that are outside of human control are at work here. The same forces that govern the changing of the seasons, or the rising and setting of the sun is also the master of luck and the fate of individuals. This card represents the inevitable changing of cycles. Its lesson is: 'what comes up must come down.'
Clouds block out the rays of the sun, and it becomes difficult to be optimistic in your situation. What joys and happinesses are you not seeing that are actually right in front of you?
Inevitable destruction and breakdown of something in our lives which we consider foundational. Reminiscent of the tower of babel, which was built upon far-reaching human ambition, creating an artificial comfort in our lives. But there is always an upside - when the tower levels, not only do we uncover our own hidden resilience, but we can also rebuild anew, with greater inner insight.
Even with success, the battle is never over. After achieving a victory and a higher position, one must also put up a defense against the many competitors that want to wrench away your laurels.
A cycle comes to a close, a radical transformation that requires a part of oneself to be sacrificed to be able to continue to the next plane. With loss, something new can begin. Death carries a scythe not just to destroy but also sow the new harvest.
At times, success and victory is the result of pure willpower and self control. To achieve and accomplish what you desire, you must take the reins and harness the chaotic forces that surround you.
The joy that you should be getting when you reunite and connect with family and the community around you is not happening right now. For one reason or another, your desire to create peace and understanding amongst loved ones is failing.
In your search for something meaningful, you have perhaps been lead to ignore the potential happiness that is given to you. So much inner focus has made you lose your way, and you have begun to deny the wonders that the world offers. Find balance; you must both look inward and out.
