The last few weeks I kept pulling the Tower in relation to my work life. I pulled it, friends pulled it reading for me. I’ve been pulling cards telling me to change jobs for 6 months now, but I didn’t want to listen.
I kept thinking, I like my job. I like this company. This part of it is rough, but there’s always rough patches at work, right? Everyone has parts of their job they hate. It’s normal. No one has a perfect boss. It’s normal. If I just focus on the parts I like and keep trucking, I’ll be ok.
So I stayed. I kept pushing through.
Then I made a big mistake, one that put the company at risk, so now I’m Not Fired. I’ve been taken off my main duties and they’re not sure if they have another role for me.
I know in my Knowing I can’t stay. Even if they found something awesome for me. It’s time. I had been told, Spirit was pretty freaking clear. It felt so much like, well, you didn’t listen, so we’re making the decision for you. It’s time to go.
The Tower is a call to change. It’s a reminder to jump before the flames get too high. An old school reader once taught me the Tower is about changing locations. I would add to that, it’s about changing locations, because you must. This is not optional change. You can choose to jump, or you can be forced to, but eventually, the building will burn down.
Life means Change. Sometimes you get to choose, sometimes you just have to jump.

I’m right there with you! Same for me a couple of years ago. I knew I needed to leave and I would get the Tower and/or Chariot. I couldn’t bring myself to quit until circumstances gave me no choice. I have to admit, my life has changed for the better and if I had left earlier it would have been better sooner. Blessings to you on your new path.
