"That thing that crumbled? It was supposed to."
Six quick picks first, then your reading
The tower signifies a breakdown-- like a coup of sorts. You are literally being thrown out of the tower you once called your home. While traditionally a negative card, sometimes you need a big change to reorient your whole life
Take this to heart, something was wrong and the universe is metaphorically blowing your life up for you, what you do in the aftermath is up to you. Perhaps a relationship ended (but maybe it was toxic the whole time), perhaps you were fired (but your free to pursue your true passion), perhaps it's a litany of things, but have faith in yourself and rebuild with your true goals and values at heart.
The universe is trying to guide you to make a radical change, but you are blocked from taking that guidance. Perhaps the clues from the universe are less obvious or perhaps you have an iron sense of will. Some things in life are meant to be hard, but you know the difference between doing a hard thing and doing something not meant for you. Use that judgment here; otherwise you are not living your own truth

The Tower for Virgo in Love and Relationships
The Analyst
Mars sits outside Virgo's usual Mercury register, so this one arrives as unfamiliar weather. Upright, this is surfacing whether or not it was invited.
When reading about relationships through a Virgo lens, the Tower card says that you feel like your partner is someone whose life you can improve, a problem you can solve (or prevent), and a person you check on more than you check in with. This has either led to a partnership where you catch things before they break, or to your care feeling like an obligation nobody asked for. The thing you're not saying out loud is the thing that matters most. The Virgo blind spot in it is the feeling of being useless, or of having wasted time on something that didn't hold up.
In practice that can look like a turning point rather than an incident, or meeting someone who changes the shape of it. Whatever form it takes, it is surfacing whether or not it was invited.
