The High Priestess is showing up a lot right now, and it seems like a repeat message from the Universe for us all to stop, breathe, and reflect. Ask yourself, How do I really feel? Take a long, leisurely tour of your emotional world this week and pay careful attention to what you find. The High Priestess brings important ideas, and is a signal that you might need a moment to ~catch up~ with your feelings. Take a moment to be still.

ARIES: KING OF COINS

Everything is a competition to you, Aries. You simply won’t give up, and I applaud your fighting spirit. The King of Coins sees you wrestling with your material world this week, getting in control of your job, career prospects, finances, and living situation. You’re making some much-needed changes. Let's go!

You’re staying at home, Taurus, and TBH, you’re pretty comfy. You just need to make a few tweaks to your pad to make it really work for you. The King of Cups advises making some necessary changes to ensure you’ve got work space, play space, and chill space you need. Spruce up your surroundings to feel centered and secure.

GEMINI: FOUR OF CUPS

Appreciation is your theme this week, Gemini. The Four of Cups shows that you’ve been struggling with boredom and restlessness. You’re not alone! But although our current times are challenging, you’ve still got your squad, a shimmery love life, a natural flexibility that enables you to adapt, and lots of ideas for entertainment. Appreciate the small positives and you’ll get your mojo back.

CANCER: FOUR OF COINS

By now, you’ve done the same thing, the same way, at the same time, so often that you want to scream. But now, that needs to change. The Four of Coins signals that it’s time to ~shake it up~. Try a new exercise routine, discover a new recipe, read a new book. Cut your own hair? Why not. Clean out your closet? Go for it. Rearrange your bedroom? Get on it. This week, seek newness wherever you can.

LEO: JUDGMENT

Judgment is a serious tarot card, Leo. It’s all about closing a chapter of your life, in the *right* way. Acknowledge all that has happened, accept the role that you have played in it, apologize for anything you need to, and take the life lessons with you as you prepare to move on. This is your homework, Leo: Consider what you need to move on from, and create ~closure~.

VIRGO: QUEEN OF CUPS

Love is in the air, Virgo, with the sexy Queen of Cups. You’re ruled by Mercury, after all, so you’re no stranger to sexy texts, flirty DMs, and using all the dating apps to your advantage. Communication is where it’s at right now. If you’re not with your boo or crush IRL, you’re imaginative enough to find ~other ways~ to get it on. Unless you live together, staying apart rn keeps you safe and lets you feel in control. And TBH, you’re so smart that you’re kind of a pro at this whole dating-from-a-distance thing.

LIBRA: SIX OF COINS

The Six of Coins is the tarot’s good karma card, and it suggests that the more random acts of kindness you put out into the world this week, the better rewards you’ll receive down the line. So go spread love and generosity. Send sweet messages to your friends, check in on your neighbors, call your mom, donate to charity, join your local mutual aid group. Help others however you can, and good things will be attracted to you.

SCORPIO: THE WHEEL OF FORTUNE

Changes are happening for you, Scorpio. Big ones with ripples that can spread out in all kinds of directions. That’s okay. You like a bit of action! The Wheel of Fortune sure promises that, I can tell you. The trick here is to get the momentum going in the right direction by initiating changes yourself. Then, watch the consequences unfold. This could be an exciting week for you—in a good way.

SAGITTARIUS: TWO OF WANDS

There’s really no such thing as a wrong move for you this week, Sagittarius. In fact, the only bad decision is to make no decision. Take care of your business, face your choices, and say “yes” or “no” (or even “come back in a few days,” if you need to gather more info). Action keeps you busy. It’s all about moving forward.

CAPRICORN: THE DEVIL

The Devil is the tarot card that represents *your sign*, so this is an important week. This card comes to tempt you down a path you KNOW leads nowhere good. Now is the moment to rewrite the story, and you’ll find the necessary willower to do the right thing vs. the easy thing, or the thing you want to do. Tackle your demons head on, you’ve got them beat—for good.

AQUARIUS: TEN OF SWORDS

What can you learn about yourself right now, Aquarius? What are you surprised to find that you miss? And what are you NOT missing that you thought you would? Consider this, because the Ten of Swords brings you its ~cutting~ energy to get rid of things that no longer serve you. Sometimes you need distance to get a fresh perspective, and right now, you’re seeing clearer than ever. Use this insight to make needed changes.

PISCES: THE HIEROPHANT

You’re a true empath, Pisces—you need to feel connected to others, which makes things really tough ATM. The Hierophant says that you can find new ways to ~join in~ and stay in touch with world. Whether it’s volunteering, joining an online forums, chatting with new people on social media, watching live-streamed events, or planning a Zoom happy hour, look for ways to stay in touch with your community.
