Upright Meanings: bankruptcy, loss, unexpected events, disaster, destruction, pain, abandonment, trauma, disruption, chaos, sudden upheaval, tragedy, end of friendship, violence, revelations, unexpected change, abuse, divorce, downfall, confusion

The Disrupter represents change in the most radical and momentous sense. It is for this reason that the card itself visually looks so unnerving. But it doesn’t necessarily have to be truly frightening or ominous. Because at the heart of this card, its message is foundational, groundbreaking change.

Reversed Meanings: averting disaster, delaying the inevitable, avoiding tragedy, resisting change, old ways, rustic, entrapment, imprisonment

When you get The Disrupter card reversed, you can feel some crisis looming along the horizon and you are struggling as much as you can to try and avoid its manifestation. What you have not realized is that these breakdowns can be beneficial in breaking down your reliance on something that is false. The Disrupter is built on faulty foundations and it must fall. Though the destruction will be painful, the humbleness resulting from it can bring us peace.
