I am 38 year old, stay at home mom of a beautiful 12 year old boy. I have Bachelor's and Master's degrees in Business Administration. I am a HP Fanfic lover. I sail the SS/HG, LM/HG, DM/HG ships and occasionally the a Slytherin/HG threesome (usually SS/LM/HG, sometimes SS/DM/HG). There's just something about those Slytherins that is unbelievably attractive to me.

I took the plunge and found out what 'my' Tarot card is. UGH! There are no words...

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.
