We created this collection of hand-made candles based on the 22 cards of the Major Arcana of the Tarot deck (Latin arcānus – mystery). These 22 cards can be interpreted as a person’s spiritual path from birth to perfection.

The candle marked with number 16 of the Major Arcana – The Tower. The archetype of the Tower symbolizes a person’s overgrown ego and overly big personal ambitions for which the person will be unavoidably punished. Those who rise high, fall low. It is an earthquake that shatters the foundation of life. Such avalanche threatens a person who is overly proud about his or her achievements and when his or her pride becomes too large. Naturally, then a moment of truth comes and the undeserved “prize” is taken away. The Tower also symbolizes the will to take great risks, to demonstrate your abilities and to show off your personality, thus destroying both your own inner harmony and that of those around you and spreading destruction.

Included with this candle you will find one of the 22 Major Arcana cards, which, in combination with The Tower, may suggest how and at what level the archetype of The Tower manifests itself in your life. Suggested affirmations and the magical orchid, mimosa, coriander seeds, white musk, liquorice, cedar, saffron fragrance may help you not to take great risks, not to demonstrate your abilities and not to show off your personality, thus destroying both your own inner harmony and that of those around you and spreading destruction.
