Tarotscope For Today: Monday, August 5, 2024

Aries

Your Card: Page of Cups

The Page of Cups represents innocence that exists just before we experience the bittersweet taste of wisdom. With that said, you may find yourself amid an ongoing train of thought that has something to do with this idea, Aries. Today you might be wondering if growing up means letting go of joy. You might be thinking it’s time to take life more “seriously”. But remember, Aries, life doesn’t have to be bland to be taken seriously. The Page of Cups is a reminder to never let go of that inner childlike curiosity and wonder. 

Taurus

Your Card: Five of Cups

Perspective can change everything, Taurus. The Five of Cups might suggest that today you are feeling an affinity for negativity. You’re hyper-focusing on what you lack rather than what you have. There is something to say about those who see the glass as half empty. Whether or not you see the glass as half empty or half full, it doesn’t the reality of the fact that half of the glass is fifty percent filled. In other words, though you may feel a bit disappointed with what is going on, you’re missing out on everything that is going right. 

Gemini

Your Card: Queen of Pentacles

The Queen of Pentacles may indicate the need to have more patience with things. Don’t be in so much of a hurry right now, Gemini. Perhaps as of lately, you’ve been a bit more impulsive than usual. Not allowing yourself the chance to think things through only leads to more mistakes and more setbacks in life. If you are feeling under pressure today or incredibly anxious for some reason, allow yourself the chance to slow down. 

Cancer

Your Card: Queen of Wands

You’re very popular today, Cancer. You’re giving off a specific energy that will make it hard for others to ignore. I see the Queen of Wands as a reminder to fake it til you become it. Today you are showing up for yourself and nobody else and because of this people will find you especially magnetic. It’s funny the way that works. The less you care what others think of you, the more they like you. Remember this as you embrace the day. Show up for yourself, exactly as yourself. 

Leo

Your Card: Four of Pentacles

Today is about moving in silence, Leo. There is power that comes from the ability to say less than what is necessary. Sometimes we focus so much on wanting to be seen and understood, that we end up forgetting to try and understand the other person deeply. You don’t have to let everyone know exactly what you’re thinking, doing, or feeling. By saying too much, others have more of a chance to misconstrue the things you say and wrongly interpret them. So with the Four of Pentacles present, just remember that. 

Virgo

Your Card: Knight of Pentacles

What’s interesting is that the Knight of Pentacles represents your sign, Virgo. So with that said, you might be feeling especially true to yourself and who you are, focusing completely on what matters in life right now. Make sure you are prioritizing the things that are going to service you in the long run as opposed to what feels fun in the short run. 

Libra

Your Card: Knight of Swords

Today is a day of learning, Libra. You can take it easy for once and just spend the day observing all that is happening around you. Put it this way, today you’re the supporting character. Not the main character if that makes sense. Right now you’re taking a backseat in the major plot happening and you’re completely okay with that. You like not feeling completely involved in the drama of life. Today you are just a supportive friend or family member. 

Scorpio

Your Card: The Moon

There is more that lies underneath the surface, today Scorpio. When it comes to those you associate with the most, take everything you’re hearing with a grain and try to read between the lines as much as you can. For the most part, nobody says exactly how they’re feeling or exactly what they want out of a certain situation. Keep this in mind. 

Sagittarius

Your Card: Five of Swords

Choose your battles today, Sagittarius. When it comes to certain conflicts or disagreements you’re having with others, it’s best not to always engage. Take a step back because involving yourself in the wrong conflict will only lead to hurt feelings and bruised egos on both ends. There is nothing productive about that. 

Capricorn

Your Card: Eight of Pentacles

Perhaps as of lately, you’ve been more focused than normal, Capricorn. While yes, you are a workaholic by nature, there is something different about what you are doing right now. You may find yourself not only perfecting your skills and mastering your trade but also undergoing a major personal shift or refining your character. You will not only see growth in your outer world but also growth happening within your inner world. 

Aquarius

Your Card: The Fool

The Fool might suggest that you are embarking on something or standing on the precipice of the unknown and you are feeling a bit anxious about it. This is to be expected, there’s nothing wrong with experiencing a bit of nerves when you are unsure of what to expect next from life. But The Fool card should serve as a bit of encouragement. There is so much to gain. Sometimes the most to gain comes from having the courage to overcome obstacles despite feeling fear. 

Pisces

Your Card: The Magician

The Magician is a reminder that our perception of the world changes the world around us. We often underestimate the power of the mind and how we choose what matters. Things only matter as much as we let it matter. This is all easier said than done considering your association with The Moon tarot card, you are no stranger to contemplating the complexities of your subconscious and the human experience as a whole. But don’t become too focused on the negative, Pisces. You are the creator of your reality.
