Both the form and usage of the letter Tet suggest a turning. The shape of the Tet is that of one half turning to the other, as if to listen to the other side. The Tet turns in on itself, meaning that its presence within a word brings it to action, causing it to do something to itself. Tet is the power to look into oneself and take an accounting of what they find and resolve to change for the good. 

The letter Tet symbolizes high ambitions and pride. With effort, this is an attribute that can be rectified. A trustworthy and steady type, they enjoy a good time, but often keep their distance. (Shemot Bnei Adam)
