	tower as the outcome card - Aeclectic Tarot Forum
		The Tower as an outcome would mean to me that a great change or revelation will occur, the truth will come out.
		So as long as the other cards were good, I'd say this means there will be a pretty big change happening but at your core you will stand firm, while things around you are moving around.
		I've also seen the tower as someone imprisoned in a situation (think rapunzle) and the lightening destroying the tower is destroying the prison- therefore allowing freedom.

		I like the fact that you added comets to the sky - the card is about shock and destructive energies, and the devestation of flaming comets certainly suits this theme, as opposed to the traditional tower that is simply flaming.
		Expanding on the meaning of the card, it might be of benefit to add some more cracking around the base of the card, as it often represents the collapse of foundations, and structural weaknesses as a whole.
		The card also has a lot to do with release from captivity, which is why many traditional decks include the figures of a man and a woman leaping from the tower as it crumbles.

	Tarot Card Meanings: XVI - The Tower
		Description: The Tower card first and foremost illustrates that neither physical nor emotional structures that we build are permanent and stable instead they can be destroyed suddenly, thereby initiating change that we tried to avoid.
		The sudden change resembled by the crumbling tower reminds us of letting go of outgrown beliefs and values, of letting go of an illusion, an unhealthy relationship, an old way of life.
		Not embracing the inevitable change brings out the negative elements that the Tower also depicts, being struck down by one's own doing, by vanity and the inability to change so that one remains stagnant.

		Then this innocent wall grows and we find ourselves locked in the tower, a false ego which is eventually attacked by others, circumstances, in short, the furies.

		When we draw The Tower in a card reading, it is a signal or sign to us that we are now facing something that is about to go, whether we refuse to see it or acknowledge it or stuggle against letting it go.
