TAROVERIE / COLORS

Tarot colors

Color is one part of a card’s visual language. Find the color first, then read the object, gesture and surrounding scene.

These nine entries compare colors in the Rider–Waite–Smith deck. Associations vary by deck, tradition and printing; a color alone is not a prediction.

LIGHTNING

Lightning

Disruption · Reassessment

Zigzag lightning strikes the Tower’s top, displacing the crown-like form as figures fall. An external direction interrupts an upright, enclosed structure.

Disruption may prompt a reading of structural shock, not a disaster forecast. Its causes and who bears the consequences cannot be dismissed as necessary change.

APPEARS IN · PUBLISHED CARD CONTEXTS

The Tower

Zigzag lightning strikes the Tower’s top, displacing the crown-like form as figures fall. An external direction interrupts an upright, enclosed structure. Follow bolt, rooftop, and falling figures to connect event and consequence. The structure has not vanished; remaining walls coexist with interrupted stability.

Hotspots come from this published card; never transplanted onto another deck.
