Supletion, I was going to suggest that you may be interested in participating in the Tarot Deck Creation Study Group, but see that you have
already done so!
By all means, complete the project... you have a good eye for essential details! I'm sure catboxer will agree that there is a certain sense of both ownership and deeper appreciation when one completes one's own deck - even if, as in my case, one never uses them, or would radically alter them later.
catboxer, I tend to agree with you that, since the New York events of the 11th September, an aspect of the Tower card has certainly been pictorially manifested in the worst possible form. For me, this is also clearly a depiction of an aspect of the Tower of Babel, with many obvious differences. In both cases, however, the events are an aspect of what happens when humans take into their own hands that which properly belongs to higher spiritual powers: one gets over-shadowed by forces which one does not understand. In the case of the Babel event, in the very construction of the Tower, presuming that spiritual heights can be reached materially; and in the New York event, presuming that one has the Will of God!
I'll also take this opportunity to mention that the Babel Tower depiction in Cavendish's
The Tarot is not the attachment previously made, but a wonderful square-looking Tower from the Bedford Book of Hours.
Attached is the (restored) 1701 Dodal version.
