Table of Contents

Aries

Your card: 3 of Swords

This is one of the worst cards in the tarot deck, signaling a time of heartbreak and darkness. Today is very likely to be bad for you. While you can’t help how you feel, you can help what you do with those feelings. Be careful or you may do something you’ll regret because you’re so focused on your pain.

Taurus

Your card: Death

Not a bad omen, the Death card signals a transitionary period in your life. While one phase of your life path may be ending, a new one is spreading out ahead of you, bringing with it all the hope for a better future. Seize this opportunity for change rather than shying away from it.

Gemini

Your card: 2 of Swords

You know all too well that avoiding a problem doesn’t make it go away. Yet that may be your first instinct today. Rather than running from your problems, face them head-on. While it may be hard to make a decision, you can handle it. Just rip off the proverbial Band-Aid.

Cancer

Your card: 9 of Swords

Feeling anxious today? This kind of stress and worry can really put a damper on your day, especially since it can be so difficult to snap yourself out of it. If you don’t have some sure-fire coping mechanisms, maybe a good night’s sleep will help? Hopefully tomorrow will be better.

Leo

Your card: 7 of Swords

Just because you could potentially get away with doing something a little underhanded, that doesn’t mean you should. While you may not see the consequences today, your bad karma will eventually find you. Think twice before you do something you’ll end up regretting.

Virgo

Your card: The Magician

This is a very powerful card when it comes to manifestation. You’re currently in a very magnetic phase, so if there’s been something you’ve wanted to do, now is the time to make that dream a reality. Take that big, scary step and know that the universe is looking out for you.

Libra

Your card: 9 of Wands

This is your day to keep working hard. You may be tired and would rather procrastinate all the things you need to do, but now’s not the time. This card is encouraging you to keep going even if you feel like giving up. You might not feel this way now, but you’ll be happy you kept going.

Scorpio

Your card: 2 of Pentacles

Struggling with all the things on your to-do list? Rather than getting bogged down by an ever-increasing list of things you have to get done, work on just one or two of them today. If you keep putting so much pressure on yourself, you’ll never feel relaxed.

Sagittarius

Your card: 5 of Swords

Things are rough right now when it comes to your interactions with other people today. Tempers are high and if you feed into them, it’ll only make things worse. Avoid a fight today by keeping to yourself as much as possible. Sometimes it’s just better to remove yourself from the situation.

Capricorn

Your card: 2 of Wands

Get out of the house today. Even if you have things you feel you need to get done at home, step outside. Your home can become stifling, and sometimes you just need a moment of fresh air to feel rejuvenated. You may even come away with a better understanding of a problem that’s been plaguing you lately.

Aquarius

Your card: 8 of Pentacles

If you want to get good at something, you have to keep practicing. Of course, as one of the workaholics of the zodiac, this doesn’t come as a surprise. But today, focus that energy on something fun. Work on a hobby or DIY project just because you can and because you like it.

Pisces

Your card: Knight of Pentacles

Routines are boring, especially for a dreamy Pisces with their head in the clouds. Alas, sometimes you just have to get things done even if they’re not fun. That’s your task for today: Stop procrastinating and do what needs to get done. You can always have fun afterward.
