The Tower and The World in Tarot: A Quick Guide to Understanding What They Mean for You!

Okay, let me tell you about this experiment I did called “The Tower and The World.” It’s been on my mind for a while, and I finally got around to it last weekend. It wasn’t some super complicated scientific thing, more like a personal project, trying to figure some stuff out, you know?

So, I started with this idea of building a tower. Not a literal one, more like a metaphor. It was about trying to reach a goal, hitting some obstacles, and seeing how I’d react. I used playing cards because, why not? They’re easy to find, and I can stack ’em up real high.

I got this deck of cards and started building. Card after card, I started stacking them up, making this tower taller and taller. It was kinda tricky, had to keep my hands steady, make sure the base was solid. You know, basic physics stuff. Each card I placed was like a step towards my goal. It felt good, like I was making progress.

Then came the “World” part. I wanted to see how this tower would stand against some external stuff, so I used a fan to simulate wind. I turned it on low at first, just a gentle breeze. The tower wobbled a bit but held up pretty well. I was like, “Alright, not bad.”

But then I cranked up the fan to medium, and then to high. The tower started shaking like crazy. Cards started to slide, and eventually, the whole thing came crashing down. It was a mess. But it was also kinda cool, in a destructive way, to see it all fall apart.

The idea here was to make a comparison. The “tower” was my goal, the “wind” was like all the stuff you run into in life that can mess things up. Sometimes it is a small problem, sometimes it is big, like turning up the fan speed. When it got to be too much, things fell apart.

I also did some other stuff, like looking up the tallest buildings in the world and some internet speed tests, just to get some more data and see some real-world examples. And I found out that having a fast internet connection is pretty cool, but not necessary for building card towers.

  • Step 1: Gather materials (deck of cards, fan).
  • Step 2: Build the card tower, making it as tall as possible.
  • Step 3: Use the fan to simulate “world” forces on the tower.
  • Step 4: Observe how the tower reacts to different fan speeds.
  • Step 5: Document the process, take some pictures, and write down my thoughts.

Experiment Results

This whole thing was more about the process than getting some solid, scientific results. It taught me that sometimes, even when you’re careful, things can still fall apart when life throws you curveballs, or strong winds in this case. It’s not always about how strong you build something, but also how well you can adapt when things get tough. I think that is the lesson of this experiment.

I guess the main takeaway here is that life’s unpredictable. You can plan and build all you want, but sometimes things just don’t go your way. And that’s okay. It’s all part of the experience. You learn, you adapt, and you try again. Maybe next time I’ll use glue or something, just kidding.

Anyways, that was my little weekend experiment. Hope you found it somewhat interesting. I’ve got some other ideas brewing, so stay tuned for more of my random experiments. It’s all about learning and having fun, right?
