December 2011
the world’s card for the month
The collective card for December 2011 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 December 2011 becomes The Tower
The collective year card for 2011 is The Emperor (4). Add the month number (December is month 12): 4 + 12 = 16. Card 16 is The Tower.
