Why Each Zodiac Feels Behind In Life Right Now, According To A Tarot Reader

Aries (March 21st to April 19th)

Your card: Strength

Aries, you are really going through it right now. You have a number of obstacles in your life that are making you feel small and powerless and completely out of control. However, you are so much stronger and more powerful than you are giving yourself credit for. And maybe, just maybe, these stressful events are happening for you to finally see how badass you truly are. Lean into the discomfort, roll with the punches, and know that this too shall pass. You are capable of handling anything that comes your way, and are only going to come out on the other side stronger and more self-assured than before.

Taurus (April 20th to May 21st)

Your Card: Two of Pentacles

Taurus, your life feels like it is in disarray at the moment and you cannot seem to get a handle on it because everything is starting to pile up. It is just too much and you do not know how you are going to get through it and progress in the ways you want to go. Here is the thing, Taurus: You will move forward but you are going to need to delegate where you can in order to find some semblance of balance. This includes asking for help at work or in your personal life. Once you are able find your center again, you will be able to move forward and feel less paralyzed by how much you have on your plate. Stop taking on more than you can chew.

Gemini (May 22nd to June 21st)

Your Card: Page of Wands

Gemini, you are currently feeling the weight of all the lives you could potentially live while you are here. You only get one life to live, and yet there are so many avenues you can walk down during that single lifetime. You are utterly overwhelmed by possibility of your existence. Because if anything is truly possible, how can you ever know which path is the best option? Because of this, you are struggling to know what to do next and are paralyzed by your indecision. Here is the truth, Gemini: Life will move forward regardless of your participation. And while you can spend you days mulling over the “right” decisions, you can also simply take a step forward and see what happens. In time, you will discover that because there is no one path to take, there is no correct route either.

Cancer (June 22nd to July 22nd)

Your Card: Four of Wands

Cancer, you are feeling a bit like a fish out of water at the moment and are not entirely sure where you belong socially. You may feel as though you are floundering, bouncing from social circle to social circle and not really believing you fit in within any of these places. Please know that finding where you feel safe and most like yourself takes time. This is true for everyone, so do not get down on yourself if you do not find that forever friend group right away. Be open to different types of people, keep your head up, and continue to dip your toes in the waters of new friendships. It will all work out in time, so stay patient.

Leo (July 23rd to August 22nd)

Your Card: The Fool

Leo, you are on the cusp of something new. Perhaps you just started a new job, are embarking on a new journey of self-discovery, or are entering some other kind of new life chapter. But despite this fresh start, you may feel as though your past is still gaining its lead on you. You are standing still in your shame and old mistakes, terrified of making them all over again. Here’s the thing, Leo: Your past is behind you, not ahead of you. And no matter how many times you look backward, you cannot fix what has already occurred. You need to forgive yourself for your former blunders and step into this new beginning with hope.

Virgo (August 23rd to September 22nd)

Your Card: The Magician

Virgo, you are feeling a bit powerless at the moment. Everything is beginning to feel too big for its own good, from work to your relationships to your wellness and everything in between. Everything that can go wrong seems to keep going wrong and you are not entirely sure what to do with the situations you have in front of you. But fret not, Virgo. Just because you feel powerless does not make this true. In fact, you are far more powerful than you are giving yourself credit for. You need to step back into your strength and remember who you are and what you are capable of. Things will workout, so long as you tap back into your power. Trust that your strength is still there, and it is just itching to be used.

Libra (September 23rd to October 22nd)

Your Card: Knight of Cups

Libra, good things are coming, but you are frustrated that these blessings have not found their ways to you just yet. Maybe you are bored of being single or perhaps work is not giving you the fulfillment it once was. Whatever your unique situation may be, you need to be patient and remember that good things take time to arrive. In the meantime, keep working hard at your goals, stay focused, and do your best to be a little more patient than you have been. Deep breaths. What is meant for you will always come around.

Scorpio (October 23rd to November 22nd)

Your Card: King of Pentacles

Scorpio, your finances have been stressing you the hell out lately. Maybe your savings are not growing at the rate you wanted them to or perhaps you have some major debt you have been trying to pay down but are not seeing the balance reach a number you would be more comfortable with just yet. These financial burdens are making you feel behind because it feels like everyone around you is handling their money in better ways. Remember, Scorpio, you never know someone else’s true financial standing and you are doing better than you think you are. Stop comparing your bank statements to imaginary numbers you think your friends have and take charge of your own spending, saving, and earning. This will serve you much better.

Sagittarius (November 23rd to December 21st)

Your Card: Three of Cups

Sagittarius, despite your normally playful, fun and rambunctious nature, you haven’t really been feeling like yourself lately. Something is getting you down and in your way. As a result, you are totally disconnected from your path and nothing seems worthwhile at the moment. But, Sagittarius, you need to get your perspective back and remember that there are so many things in this life worth celebrating. And to change your vantage point, you need to put yourself in new situations where you see things differently.

Capricorn (December 22nd to January 20th)

Your Card: Six of Swords

Capricorn, you are in a time of transition and rebirth. Perhaps a relationship has just ended or maybe you are moving forward in your role at work. Despite the fact these changes are good things, you can’t help but feel stuck in place anyway, particularly in regards to your feelings about the situation. You’re shrouded in fear and pessimism. You feel as though you are starting from scratch and therefore are behind. But this is just not true, Capricorn. Life is a series of endings and beginnings. You are exactly where you are meant to be.

Aquarius (January 21st to February 18th)

Your Card: The Moon

Aquarius, something may have just been revealed to you that you didn’t really realize before, most likely a problem you have been sweeping under the rug and ignoring. Whatever this issue may be, it is making you feel behind in life now that you are seeing it clearly. However, it is important to remember that we all have things we need to work on, Aquarius. You will overcome this obstacle and get to where you were headed (and on time).

Pisces (February 19th to March 20th)

Your Card: The Hanged One

Pisces, you are stuck on a particular situation because you are looking at it in one way, and not necessarily in the most helpful light. This perspective is preventing you from moving forward and taking the steps necessary to make the progress you need. If you want to gain some momentum in your life, you’re going to need to let go of old viewpoints and consider different angles.
