However, this raw power can go to people’s heads and make people feel egotistical and selfish. Since Mars also rules the Tower and it’s New Moon, these new beginnings will be drastic.

Numerology: 4

The 5 of Swords is a card that appears when everyone loses. Traditionally, there are two men on the card. One is crying and the other is walking away with a smug look on his face.
