Can a Tower Moment Be Avoided?

LindsayH

I've been seeing the Tower come up a lot in my readings lately, and a few readers even said it might be pointing to something significant or "fated" heading my way.

That got me wondering: if something like that is going to happen, is there any way to avoid it? Or at least make it less painful?

I get that the Tower usually means sudden change, upheaval, or things falling apart so something new can happen, but I'm curious how other people read it. Have any of you had a Tower moment you actually saw coming? Did knowing about it ahead of time help you prepare or make it easier to handle?

Sorry if this is a dumb question, I'm just trying to understand the card better and not spiral into anxiety about it.

Would love to hear your takes or experiences.

One thing I've learned about Tower moments is that the collapse itself isn't the point - it's what you do after.

When something falls apart, it usually means the foundation couldn't hold you anymore. Painful as that is, the wreckage makes room for something healthier to be built.

For me, the Tower has rarely felt like punishment or bad luck. It's more like forced growth. We outgrow beliefs, relationships, jobs, situations, and the Tower clears what can no longer support us.

They don't just happen once either. Most of us get through several over a lifetime. The more you treat them as chances to rebuild and learn who you are, the less terrifying they get. You begin to trust that even if something collapses, you can put together something stronger from what's left.

So instead of obsessing over avoiding the Tower, I find it way more useful to think about how I'll respond when change arrives. That's where the real work - and growth - happens.

Sofia Thanks for sharing your perspective - I loved how you put it. You're right, nothing lasts forever and every ending makes room for a new beginning. I'll definitely keep that in mind going forward. ✨💖

I honestly think trusting yourself and staying tuned into your intuition can soften whatever changes the Tower brings. Instead of treating it like some disaster happening to you, try looking at it as a chance to grow and discover more about who you are. If you’re grounded and self-aware, you’ll be a lot better at handling whatever comes. Listen to your gut, trust yourself, and stay open to the lessons. For me, the Tower isn’t something to fear - it’s a push that, if you meet it, helps you come out stronger.

For me, the Tower feels unavoidable. It can be brutal and unsettling, but it usually clears the way for real change. You can’t stop it, but knowing it’s coming helps you roll with it-less panic, more room to rebuild.
