Aries

Your Card: The Moon

Don’t let Illusions cloud your judgment today. When The Moon appears, not everything is as it appears on the surface. Trust your intuition and don’t make any major decisions until the fog clears out. Dreams and subconscious messages are particularly powerful right now. Pay attention to patterns that keep repeating in your life: they’re trying to tell you something important. 

Taurus

Your Card: Eight of Swords

The Eight of Swords represents self-imposed limitations and negative thinking patterns. Those obstacles you’re seeing? Most of them exist only in your mind. Take a step back and examine your situation objectively. Talk to a trusted friend. The world is yours if you stop holding yourself back. Small, practical steps forward will help you break free from a scarcity mindset. 

Gemini 

Your Card: The Emperor

Structure and discipline should guide you through the day. The Emperor urges you to take control of a situation that’s been drifting without direction. Maybe you’ve been procrastinating or putting off a difficult conversation. Don’t be afraid to set boundaries or take charge. Even though others aren’t speaking up, they will respect you for taking a stand. Don’t be bullied into staying silent. 

Cancer

Your Card: Justice

When Justice appears, karma will soon play its hand. The universe is at work to bring balance and fairness to your day. If you’ve been dealing with a legal matter or an ethical dilemma, the resolution is near. You should also be fair with others. Make decisions based on what’s right, not what’s convenient. Your integrity will be rewarded, though it may take time to reap the rewards. 

Leo 

Your Card: The Hanged Man

Hit the pause button today. The Hanged Man suggests you need to stop and view your situation from a completely different angle. There may be delays and setbacks today that frustrate you, but be patient. It’s actually an opportunity to slow down and take a breath. Instead of freaking out, take a walk, meditate, or do something that brings you peace. Sometimes surrendering control leads to the breakthrough you’ve been seeking.

Virgo 

Your Card: Nine of Pentacles

Your hard work is paying off! Your attention to detail and practical nature have positioned you perfectly for success. The Nine of Pentacles represents self-sufficiency, luxury, and the fruits of your labor. Enjoy the independence and security you’ve worked hard to create for yourself. This is an excellent day for solo activities that bring you joy.

Libra

Your Card: Ace of Swords

You’ll be a problem-solver today because the Ace of Swords brings a breakthrough in thinking, communication, or understanding. A new idea or perspective will solve a problem that’s been puzzling you. This is an excellent time to have important conversations, send necessary emails, and explore your private thoughts in a journal. Tackle any self-starter projects that you’ve been putting off.

Scorpio 

Your Card: Seven of Cups

Many options may present themselves today, but be realistic about each one. Some may be pipe dreams while others offer you something more concrete. The Seven of Cups warns against getting lost in fantasy. Focus on what’s realistic. Beware of illusions and get-rich-quick schemes. Avoid daydreaming the day away. Instead, make a list of pros and cons for each opportunity and make a realistic decision.

Sagittarius

Your Card: Strength

Strength reminds us that true power comes from compassion, patience, and gentle persistence. Don’t force the situation today. Instead, try using diplomacy and emotional intelligence to help others see your side of things. Your sign’s optimism will help you tame any negative wild beasts in your path. Love, not domination, is the way forward.

Capricorn

Your Card: The High Priestess

Trust your intuition today, even if conventional wisdom tells you that you’re wrong. The High Priestess reminds us that sometimes the answers you seek lie within your subconscious mind. Pay attention to dreams and gut feelings. This is a day for reflection rather than quick action. Take some time to explore the mystery of the unknown and see what lies in the shadows. 

Aquarius

Your Card: Seven of Swords

Someone may not be telling you the whole truth. Often called the thief of the tarot, The Seven of Swords reveals deception and shady behavior. However, it could also represent a need for a strategic approach to a tricky situation. Be on your guard today. Be diplomatic but cautious. Don’t rush into any decisions. Instead, hang back and wait for more information. 

Pisces 

Your Card: Ace of Pentacles

Today is a golden opportunity for material or creative manifestation. The Ace of Pentacles represents new beginnings in career, health, or financial matters. Your dreams have a chance to take physical form now. This is an excellent time to plant seeds for your future. Trust that the universe is supporting your practical goals, but also meditate on increased abundance.
