September 1600
the world’s card for the month
The collective card for September 1600 is The Tower. It’s the same for everyone alive this month, set by the date alone, and it sits in the reckoning third of the wheel.
The Tower is the part of life that collapses what was never going to hold. It is sudden change, revelation, the crash that clears the ground. It destroys what was false so something true can stand where it stood.
How September 1600 becomes The Tower
The collective year card for 1600 is The Chariot (7). Add the month number (September is month 9): 7 + 9 = 16. Card 16 is The Tower.
