The story between 2 families who are just getting to know each other.
First family: tower
In a strike of lightning they have come to realize that if they want to meet people they will have to blow the lid and get out of house. Taking a risk and show them selves, to this family this is a big tower to set on fire as they are very much inwards and being them selves.
Second family: 9 wands
They are foreighnors, insecure of how to make friendsships with the countrymen they have chosen to live among. putting them selves in a bird cage they can watch others, neighbours live their lives but not getting involved. The insecurity of being the "strangers"
The 2 family meet, both having taken some of their barricades down and it is prooving to become a beautiful friendship between neighbours.
The situation between them: yours to guess..
Bringing all kind of myths and heresays to the ground, they find that both families are equal "strangers". Nothing scary about seeking new friends, countrymen or not, language and culture barricades can be taught, learned and accepted. Both families needed to feel that they belongs where they live, making connection and spending time together brought all the barricades to fall naturally, no tower or wand can be that strong so it can keep people apart that are in need of others to talk to.
What card is missing? (maybe it will be good sense to mention that the card don't always "mean" this :P )

Why not three of cups?
or it could also be Temperance, i.e. as Alchemy -- mixing, mingling of families...
|

|
nope not 3 cups, nor temperance. sorry
what you are looking for is a bit more mundane than temperance

four of wands?
-- or the Tower -- breaking down of barriers?
|
| bec |

|
Not 4 wands, Tower is good guess but no.
I begin to wonder if my interpret of the card in this situation have been very weird (????)

'Bringing all kind of myths and heresays to the ground'
V the Pope/Hierophant ?
|

jmd has got it, picked up on the very first and very important clue and nailed it - it was indeed the hierophant.
Bringing mystery to ground, showing the true face of monsters, putting all you got on the scale of "good sense".
jmd your turn :)

Thanks Bec...
it was a good interpretation of that card in the context... but far more difficult to work backwards from. Great post to start us going!
