ARIES
Your Card: Four of Swords
If you keep going the way you have been, you’re going to experience major burnout. Slow down, Aries. The Four of Swords indicates that you need to carve out time to recharge. Find it this week. Dedicate a whole day, evening, or weekend to prioritize rest and relaxation. Don’t worry about your to-do list, don’t think about work, and try to forget about your stress. Practice self-care. Do things that make you feel new again and restore your inner peace. Don’t forget to make this a habit.
TAURUS
Your Card: Five of Pentacles, reversed
Whatever challenges or difficulties you’re experiencing, the reversal of the Five of Pentacles wants to remind you that they’re temporary. Your struggles are soon to be behind you, Taurus. All that heartache or loneliness afflicting you isn’t here to stay. You just have to be willing to put in a little work. This means forcing yourself to stop walking down memory lane and releasing any unhealthy attachments you may have to the past. It also means finding hope in what could be. Stay determined to find beauty and magic again, and remember that it’s something you can create.
GEMINI
Your Card: Eight of Wands
The Eight of Wands has a message for you: You’re ready to create something extraordinary for yourself. Don’t get distracted or give into self-doubt. Now’s not the time to sit back and wait for life to happen to you, now’s the time to get out there and start taking risks. Be bold, Gemini. Go after what you want. Let your passion lead the way. Stop being afraid of failure and start having more faith in yourself. Whatever dream you’ve been cooking up, you can make it a reality. Start putting your ideas into action. You can begin today, even if it’s in a small way.
CANCER
Your Card: Ace of Wands
Stop thinking about what you think or have been made believe you should do, and start doing what you want to do. Let your desires and passions guide you, Cancer. What sparks something in you? What makes you feel inspired? What compels you? The Ace of Wands shows up to urge you to embrace it, even when it feels risky and terrifying. Your job today is to think about the possibilities, then come up with a game plan for manifesting those dreams. Stop giving into self-doubt and fear. Honor your ideas. This card is also a sign to follow your heart in matters of romance, so put yourself out there.
LEO
Your Card: Four of Pentacles
The Four of Pentacles urges you to surrender control. Examine what in your life you try so hard to preserve and why. What or who do you feel like you need to cling to so tightly? Is it because you’re afraid you would lose them? Do you believe things would come crashing down without your constant oversight? What behavioral patterns of beliefs are you clutching that stop you from growing and expanding your perspective? Are you overly attached to the past? Are you placing too much worth on material possessions? Meditate on this today. Make an attempt to quiet your anxiety and intrusive thoughts. Let go a little bit.
VIRGO
Your Card: The Tower, reversed
Stop delaying the inevitable, Virgo. This card signals that you’re somehow being resistant to change. Take this as your wake-up call to place yourself into the position of power by taking charge of whatever shift you’re facing. It can be forced upon you, with possible negative consequences, or you can choose to direct this transition. Stop living in denial and shatter your false sense of security. In your gut you know that this situation or relationship is no longer working. It’s not meant for you, but there are other things that are. Once you embrace the unknown and start walking towards what could be, they will reveal themselves. Don’t you want to create your own story and make it one in which you achieve happiness and fulfillment?
LIBRA
Your Card: Six of Wands, reversed
What’s got you feeling so down on yourself today, Libra? Quit it with that negative self-talk and be kinder to yourself. Remember that your perception becomes your reality. Don’t let disappointments, mistakes, or failure to get your due recognition erode your faith in your capabilities. This isn’t what defines you. What defines you is how you choose to overcome these challenges. Are you going to give up or are you going to move forward with confidence?
SCORPIO
Your Card: Death
You’ve been going through profound growth and transformation lately, Scorpio. It hasn’t been easy, and with it you’ve had to experience loss and endings. The work you’ve done has been extremely uncomfortable, you should be proud of yourself. This card shows up to remind you of that and to beckon you to look inward and ask yourself what changes have you yet to make. What situation, dynamic, relationship, or dream do you need to move on from? What behavioral patterns or self-limiting beliefs are left for you to release? You’ve already made so much improvement, now you must sever the remaining ties that confine you. New opportunities, connections, and experiences await you.
SAGITTARIUS
Your Card: Nine of Pentacles, reversed
When was the last time you checked your bank account and credit card statements, Sag? The reversal of the Nine of Pentacles warns of financial instability, so spend some time today getting your budget and financial plan in order. Resist the urge to be impulsive and overspend. Dial it back a little bit for the next few weeks (heck, maybe the next few months). Even if you can afford it, maybe it’s a good idea to save for a while, don’t you think?
CAPRICORN
Your Card: The Hermit, reversed
It’s time to leave your cave—or your desk—and re-emerge into the world, Capricorn. You’ve been holed up for way too long. Reconnect with your friends and socialize. Do something fun. Enough is enough. Stop by happy hour on your way home from work, or make it your mission this coming weekend to enjoy yourself with others. Whether it’s your job or personal struggles that have had you isolating yourself, push them aside and remind yourself of the importance of nurturing our most meaningful connections.
AQUARIUS
Your Card: Seven of Swords
The Seven of Swords is a card of deception, dishonesty, manipulation, and scheming. Take it as advice not to resort to lies, even if you have the best intentions at heart. Transparency is always the best option, especially when it comes to those who mean the most to you. Trust is everything, Aquarius. This card can also be a warning that someone close to you is deceiving you in some way. If your gut is telling you that they’re omitting something from you, it’s probably because they are. Be direct and ask for the truth. It’s also important that you question the intentions of others today. Someone might be trying to make a fool out of you.
PISCES
Your Card: Page of Wands, reversed
Feeling uninspired lately, Pisces? Carve out time this week to become reconnected with your passions. You need to remember what it is that lights you up. This inner fire you’ve lost can be once again found by simply immersing yourself into the world and trying to be present in the moment. Go on a walk and take in your surroundings. Look for beauty on your way to work, in a song, or looking at the sunset. Visit an art museum. Watch a beautiful film. Try to become inspired. Create just for the sake of creating, like back when you were a kid and did it just for fun. It will come back to you.
