I agree rather with Grand Orient that it is the ruin of the House of We, when evil has prevailed therein, and above all that it is the rending of a House of Doctrine.

The bibliographer Christian imagines that it is the downfall of the mind, seeking to penetrate the mystery of God. I see nothing to warrant Papus in supposing that it is literally the fall of Adam, but there is more in favour of his alternative - that it signifies the materialization of the spiritual word. It is said further that it contains the first allusion to a material building, but I do not conceive that the Tower is more or less material than the pillars which we have met with in three previous cases. It is idle to indicate that it depicts min in all its aspects, because it bears this evidence on the surface. Occult explanations attached to this card are meagre and mostly disconcerting. It is a little surprising that the device has not so far been allocated to the destruction Of Solomon's Temple, when the lightning would symbolize the fire and sword with which that edifice was visited by the King of the Chaldees. It is assuredly a card of confusion, and the design corresponds, broadly speaking, to any of the designations except Maison Dieu, unless we are to understand that the House of God has been abandoned and the veil of the temple rent. In the last case, the figures falling therefrom are held to be Nimrod and his minister. Its alternative titles are: Castle of Plutus, God's House and the Tower of Babel.
