Your Weekly Tarot Card Reading, by Zodiac SignMargie Rischiotto+Rider-Waite

You don't need to know the difference between a three-card and a Celtic cross spread to get the most out of a tarot card reading. All you need: your Sun sign! Here's what I do: Shuffle my tarot deck and pull out the cards in order from Aries to Pisces, plus one general card for everyone so that you can get specific advice around your personality. Let’s go!

A GENERAL CARD FOR EVERYONE: KING OF WANDS

All hail the king! Kings are the leaders, example-setters, counselors, and coaches of the tarot, and Wands are all about passion, creativity, travel, motivation and living well. Who inspires you? Who sets a good example? Who teaches you things all the time? Maybe they could be a mentor, maybe you could just tell them how great you think they are, or maybe you just need to spend a little more time with them. The people you surround yourself with say a lot about you. Make sure at least one is a King of Wands type.

ARIES: JUDGMENT

Judgment is a powerful card about realizing who you are, what you’re great at, why it's unique, and what you’re going to do in order to find a niche that suits your skills. There’s a niche in this big world for everyone… somewhere. Have you found it? Could you create it? Can you move closer to it? Think, ponder, know yourself, and make a call. This is a game-changing epiphany.

TAURUS: NINE OF WANDS

I promise that whatever you’re dreading (and probably avoiding) is no biggie. You can handle it. Better still, it’s all smooth sailing on the other side of this obstacle, so just get to it. The Nine of Wands reassures you that the problems you perceive are not half as bad as they seem. Tackle them head on.

GEMINI: SIX OF CUPS

The Six of Cups amplifies your playful, affectionate, friendly, fun side—it's what people love about you. Take time this week to have some fun, share your cheeky side, make people laugh, treat them kindly, be warm and caring, make a new friend, or reconnect with an old one. Revel in being known as "the fun one"—it’s not a bad label to have. People are always pleased to see you, Gemmy. You bring info, comedy, gossip, ideas, and high energy. Share it out, enjoy the response.

CANCER: THREE OF CUPS

You know how to have a good time. Not many signs can compare to you in full party mode. The Three of Cups reveals that you’re ready for some of that action; more than ready. January has been a slog. You’ve been well-behaved, and you’ve met your challenges. Now it’s playtime. Now it’s all about celebrating and letting your hair down. All work and no play makes Cancer dull and listless. Go shine your light and recharge.

LEO: THE HANGED MAN

Margie Rischiotto+Rider-Waite

As a fixed sign, you tend to lean into your problems and work harder. You are a force of nature. You like to push ahead, no matter what. Spoiler: It’s not going to work, Leo. The Hanged Man shows that you need to rethink your approach here, and the key is to see things from the perspective of another person (maybe someone you’re in opposition with). When you unlock their point of view, everything will seem clearer. Until then, you’re banging your head on a brick wall. Stop, think, and see it differently.

VIRGO: QUEEN OF PENTACLES

Margie Rischiotto+Rider-Waite

You are the Queen of Pentacles: A super-organized, practical, strong, resolute, materialistic grafter who knows her own worth and wants the rewards for her efforts. This is a great week to do some ambitious career planning, visualizing, and scoping. Maybe even to apply for an upgrade, a raise or direct promotion. You can go further than you think, Virgo. You are ready for that next level, you’re kinda’ already there. Go manifest your dream role.

LIBRA: ACE OF PENTACLES

Patience is a virtue. Good things come to those who wait. Worthwhile results take commitment and determination. Remember all these platitudes when you get frustrated or impatient that your efforts aren’t paying off. Trust that eventually, they will. The Ace of Pentacles asks you to recalibrate your expectations and timelines. Make mini milestones for your goals. Work out a plan that is easy to follow. You can do this. Make it easier and simpler for yourself.

SCORPIO: PAGE OF WANDS

It doesn’t have to be right the first time. Remember that, Scorpio, because perfectionism can be a dangerous ally, sabotaging even the best ideas and plans. Be like the Page of Wands this week. Try something even if you don't know if it will work, see it all as a game, experiment, don’t put pressure on yourself. Whatever happens, happens. Then you can take the next step.

SAGITTARIUS: PAGE OF CUPS

Margie Rischiotto+Rider-Waite

Drift back towards your childhood self (they're never that far away…) and remember the simple, pleasurable pastimes you used to lose yourself in. Whether it’s sports, creative activities, games, nature, reading, collecting stuff… whatever it is, remember it. The Page of Cups is an invitation to revisit something magical from your childhood. Rediscover it in an adult format that can still be fun today.

CAPRICORN: THE EMPRESS

Margie Rischiotto+Rider-Waite

Love yourself. Love others. Be warm, kind, forgiving, compassionate, and nurturing to yourself and others. Be a bright light in your little corner of planet earth this week (it’s rough out there, right?). The Empress is a beacon of love and light, and she brings you her passionate and fierce care for all living creatures this week. Feel it flow through you. Meditate on your experience of love. Spend time with those you adore. Love is your theme this week. Think of it as an early Valentine’s Day.

AQUARIUS: EIGHT OF SWORDS

eight of swords
Margie Rischiotto+Rider-Waite

We all have things we do not like about ourselves and, given that we spend 24/7 with ourselves, it’s no wonder that we often try (unconsciously) to project those dislikes onto others. This is human nature, and you are not exempt from that, Aquarius. The Eight of Swords asks you to examine your projections and see which of them can be traced back to yourself. No judgment. Just analysis. This might shift your perspective. It might make it easier to forgive, understand, or even like someone you’re struggling with right now.

PISCES: FOUR OF PENTACLES

Margie Rischiotto+Rider-Waite

Gosh, is it STILL January? How long is this month??? I hear you, Pisces. It’s too long. So, shake it up a bit this week. We’re nearly into February, so let’s kick the month off with a crash. Signal the change of the energy around you with a change of your own energies, routines, schedule, outlook, activities, and rituals. The Four of Pentacles invites you to be different and feel different. It's time for a change.
