About Me

A little Joseph Campbell for ya...

You are The Tower

Ambition, fighting, war, courage. Destruction, danger, fall, ruin.

The Tower represents war, destruction, but also spiritual renewal. Plans are disrupted. Your views and ideas will change as a result.

The Tower is a card about war, a war between the structures of lies and the lightning flash of truth. The Tower stands for "false concepts and institutions that we take for real." You have been shaken up; blinded by a shocking revelation. It sometimes takes that to see a truth that one refuses to see. Or to bring down beliefs that are so well constructed. What's most important to remember is that the tearing down of this structure, however painful, makes room for something new to be built.

Generally: I am the second child in the family. Elizabeth took top honor with a 4 minute arrival ahead of me. Susan arrived about 4 years later, Michael 8, and Joey 12 yrs later. Can't forget toddler Julia. Trying to be mindful of being here and making things happen. I like la Isla del Encanto. I like to cook. I'm doing graduate studies VERY part time for a Masters in Nonprofit Management. I like going to concerts with my favorite concert companion, Elizabeth.
