Tarotscope For Today: Tuesday, April 23, 2024
Aries
Your Card: Death
I’m excited for you, Aries. You seem to be on some sort of life-changing journey right now. Keep up the momentum because there is a lot that is waiting for you. Much of it has already begun, and every day you inch closer and closer to becoming the leader and person you’re meant to be. The Death card symbolizes a rebirth of yourself. Today you will feel yourself shedding pieces of your being to prepare and welcome in a new way of being. Your world is changing more and more every day, and so you must adapt with it. Don’t think you are letting go of who you are, but rather you are preparing for the new and improved you.
Taurus
Your Card: Eight of Wands
Today, you should make your intentions clear. You will find that people are quite receptive to what you have to say. Naturally so, you do have the gift of the gab, Taurus. Take advantage of this strength today. With the Eight of Wands, you will find that communication is key in taking on what the day has in store. It might feel like a lot initially, but all these new opportunities will play out throughout your season.
Gemini
Your Card: Ace of Cups
The Ace of Cups represents the act of loving courageously. To express how you feel without the fear of how you may be received. Don’t feel shame for the intensity of your emotions. You’re only human, Gemini, and often it is a disservice to ourselves to repress this. Express yourself, whether it be through art or by communicating your appreciation to the people you love and respect the most. Today you are experiencing a strong capacity for love, and though you may feel vulnerable and scared of getting hurt, if someone else decides to take advantage of you bearing your heart to them, that’s not on you. That’s completely on them. Don’t feel stupid, you have a right to be human.
Cancer
Your Card: The World
The World is a profound card to receive, Cancer, and there is a reason why this is your card for today. It can represent the expansiveness of the universe and the unlimited possibilities that it holds. Though we need to recognize the limits of our own strengths, today is a good day to push yourself past your limits. In the past, what did you find was outside of your control and capabilities? Maybe now is the time to tackle these challenges and reach a new height in consciousness. You are free of limitations today—take advantage of this energy.
Leo
Your Card: Nine of Pentacles
Sometimes during the pursuit of the life we want for ourselves, there comes moments where we ask ourselves when will it get better? When will we finally see the rewards of our labor come to fruition? The Nine of Pentacles often represents a missing piece to the puzzle before everything else can fall into place and we can see the full picture. You may not be seeing the full picture here, Leo. Perhaps take a step back and reassess what could be missing.
Virgo
Your Card: Judgment
You may find yourself waiting on pins and needles for a certain response on a matter at hand. It’s out of your hands right now. The most that you can do is let it go and allow the situation to evolve and unfold as it will. We only have so much control within our lives, and there is strength in releasing that need for constant control. Don’t tinker anymore. Don’t keep asking. Don’t keep pressing the situation. Just let it be and whatever happens happens. If this doesn’t pan out the way that you hope it will, The Judgment card asks you to recognize what areas you should improve upon to receive a better outcome next time.
Libra
Your Card: King of Pentacles
Your confidence and self-assuredness won’t go unnoticed today, Libra. The King of Pentacles represents someone who is stable, grounded, hard-working, and honest. Today, you embody all those qualities and with this energy, you may find that others are treating you with the respect that you deserve. Continue to hold your head up high. You’ve earned the right to do so. This card is also a reminder not to let this go to your head, however. It’s very easy for the ego to become inflated. Pentacles represents earth so remind yourself to stay grounded and remember that you too started from somewhere just like everybody else.
Scorpio
Your Card: Eight of Swords
Our thoughts are very powerful. More so than people give them credit for. And yet, the Eight of Swords symbolizes this idea of doubt and stagnation that stems from our belief system and preconceived notions. In other words, the only thing holding you back today Scorpio, is yourself. What you may be experiencing isn’t resistance from the outside forces, but rather resistance within yourself. Though it can be hard to tamper with an over-analytical mind, you do have the power to dig yourself up out of this unconscious rabbit hole but it’s going to require a certain level of mental gymnastics to make it happen. Again, our thoughts are incredibly powerful and if you aren’t able to break this toxic self-talk cycle, then it will only become a self-fulfilling prophecy. In numerology, the number eight is associated with the saying “as above, so below”. This phrase can be interpreted as the idea of taking an idea and manifesting it into the material world. Make sure you’re not manifesting a destiny you don’t want.
Sagittarius
Your Card: Nine of Cups
Today, you are setting the mood. Those around you may be feeling down in their feelings right now. You have the power to infect them with your energy today. When they say “hello”, you pull them in for a big hug. When they can’t find a reason to smile, you make them laugh. When all they see and feel is the burden of their pain, you have the power to lighten the load. Your energy is so infectious that you have the ability today to turn everyone’s day around. Share this gift. The world needs this right now.
Capricorn
Your Card: Two of Pentacles
The Two of Pentacles is rather fitting for you considering it is represented as Jupiter in Capricorn. You are the zodiac sign of accomplishment, perseverance, hard work, and determination. But even you understand the importance of indulgence and play. You are represented by The Devil card, after all. What’s the point in working so hard if you aren’t going to reap the benefits of it all? The Two of Pentacles represents the balance of every aspect of our life. To achieve the things we want, we can’t slave away day after day without some fun. That is not living. Take the day off if you can, Capricorn. Hard work is important, yes, but rest is paramount. Rest is just a part of the hustle.
Aquarius
Your Card: Ace of Wands
The fire as illustrated on the Ace of Wands tarot card represents spiritual desire, passion, energy, and enlightenment. It represents a spiritual strength that burns within us and gives us the courage and grit to do whatever is necessary to overcome challenges. Today, that fire burns within you, Aquarius. Like the sun, this flame is a source of power and energy that has the strength to bring life. The universe is giving you this gift today because it is exactly what you need as you embark on a new mission, but don’t take it for granted. The Ace of Wands also represents the power of destruction if used incorrectly.
Pisces
Your Card: The Tower
Do you know that meme where it’s a dog nonchalantly sitting at a kitchen table drinking coffee as the room around him is in flames and he just casually says, “This is fine.” That’s you today, Pisces—you’re just fine. The Tower represents the destruction of old forms and a complete reconstruction of pre-existing foundational belief systems. But honestly, you’ve seen it all, and at this point, nothing phases you. You’re the dog and as the world burns, just remind yourself that this is fine. Find a way to laugh at the situation because humor will carry you out of this situation. And as events unfold and make way for a new equilibrium, all you need to do is drink your coffee, smile, and wait it out. Such is life. Why cry at pain when you can simply laugh at it?
