What You Should Do About Your Crush, Based On Your Zodiac + Tarot

Aries

Your card: 9 of Wands

This card isn’t encouraging you to ask them out (which goes a little against your instincts) but instead is pushing you to just wait and see. Maybe you need to spend this time getting to know them better.

Taurus

Your card: The Fool

This is the perfect time to jump feet-first into something. You have no idea how asking them out could go, but hey, it could be the start of a whole new journey together. You won’t know until you try.

Gemini

Your card: Justice

You have to decide whether approaching them is actually a good idea. If they’re seeing someone, for instance, you might not want the bad karma that comes along with flirting with your crush while they’re in a relationship.

Cancer

Your card: The Hermit

You need to figure out whether you actually like this person. You may instead be obsessed with the idea of them. If you’re experiencing limerence instead of actual attraction to your crush, you might want to let this one go.

Leo

Your card: 10 of Wands

There comes a point when you just need to let a crush go, and this is your sign that the fun lightness you felt at the beginning of the crush has instead turned into something that just makes you feel bad. It’s time to move on.

Virgo

Your card: King of Pentacles

Focus on something else right now. Crushes can be distracting–especially if you’re not actively doing anything about it. Shift your focus to other things for now and your crush may just find their way to you.

Libra

Your card: 10 of Swords

This crush isn’t serving you anymore and it’s time to let go. If you hold on, it’ll only make you feel worse and worse. If you need to stop being friends with them in order to move on, it’ll hurt but will ultimately be the best choice.

Scorpio

Your card: Ace of Cups

It’s time to make your move. This card is all about new relationships and astounding love. The odds are good that they like you back too. And if they don’t you’ll just be clearing space in your heart for someone who does.

Sagittarius

Your card: 7 of Swords

You know in your heart that this crush isn’t good for you. If you go after this person, you’ll just be hurting someone else. The beginning of relationships should be easy and fun, not minefields of complication and drama.

Capricorn

Your card: Knight of Pentacles

You first have to get closer to your crush before you can ever make a move. Dedicate some time to actually talking to them and getting to know them. You’ll increase your odds of something happening (or figuring out that they’re not right for you.)

Aquarius

Your card: 9 of Swords

If your crush is giving you so much anxiety, you might want to stay away for a while. While crushing can be fun, it can also make you feel bad about yourself if the feelings aren’t reciprocated. Do yourself a favor and steer clear of the things that don’t serve you.

Pisces

Your card: 2 of Pentacles

When you read the title, you probably asked, “Which one?” Truth is, you have so many crushes and that’s part of the fun. You could pick just one or you could keep doing what you’re doing. Honestly, if anyone is doing this right, it’s you.
