Upright meaning
Monks painstakingly build a mandala of sand — and then destroy it, reminding us that all things are temporary and that attachment is what binds us. Seen through fear, destruction looks like disaster; but if you are stuck in something that will not let you grow, it sets you free. If something you poured your soul into has collapsed, know this: a new cycle is about to begin — one closer to your true path.
Reversed meaning
In reversed position
A destructive turn has been avoided. This confirms that with a certain person or situation you chose the right course and steered clear of harm.
