As the old falls away and routines fall apart, you may wonder if you did something wrong or if you’re quickly struggling to “fix” the mess.
However, the Tower is something that changes our lives for good reason, and the path cleared may not feel satisfying at the moment (but can be put to good use at a later date). You are called to trust the process, Taurus.

The Fool (Reverse) and Knight of Cups
