The theme for everyone this week is collaboration. If you’re open to working with other people and combining your talents for a greater good, then you’ll be all the more available to the scope of opportunity out there. More can be achieved together than alone, so think about something meaningful and inspiring to you and go get others involved!

It’s nice to be nice, and the Page of Cups is all about sharing the love and spreading good vibes around (you’ve got plenty to spare, as a warm-hearted Aries.) When you give selflessly, it never goes to waste. Do future you a solid and put some credit in the karma bank this week.

TAURUS: TWO OF SWORDS

Decisions, decisions–wherever you turn, there seems to be a choice waiting to be made. Why has it all snowballed like this? The Two of Swords hints that you’ve put off making a firm move in several areas and they’ve all piled up, waiting for your time and attention. Buckle up and focus. Don’t let yourself off the hook until you’ve examined the options, thought it through, slept on it if need be, and finally come to your answer. Address the unresolved over the next seven days.

Awww, Gemmy, you’re in for a magical seven days so aim high (aka for the gd stars, bb.) The Nine of Cups is a wish-come-true card and signals that you’re in line for a one-of-a-kind opportunity. So focus on the things you really want, and dare to go for them! Clearly visualize whatever you want to attract in your life RN. This week is going to be transformative!

CANCER: QUEEN OF SWORDS

People think Cancerians are all dreamy, sexy, needy and emosh beings… but you’ve got teeth too! You can be sharp-tongued and sarcastic when you’re riled up, striking verbal blows that leave long-time scars. Be careful about when and on whom you unleash this side of your personality this week. You’ll be reaaaaally tempted to reveal your inner crab claws, but think twice about the aftermath.

LEO: KING OF CUPS

Single Leos are in for a hot week of romance with the King of Cups, particularly with a super-sexy water sign (Scorpio, Cancer or Pisces), so head to their domain (the beach/ river/spa/pool) and look for "the one with the eyes." (Water signs have particularly captivating gazes.) Boo'd up Leos–don’t feel left out! Your love life can return to that passionate first date energy with a little effort, thoughtfulness and magic.

VIRGO: THREE OF COINS

Work-play-sleep-work-play-sleep–it’s easy to think you’re not really getting anywhere, just treading water and repeating the daily grind. But the Three of Coins shows that your hard work, skills and efforts have been noticed, and by someone who can make a difference to you. Accelerate to this opportunity by leaning on influential people in your network and simply sharing your career goals with them. A promotion, raise, or invitation to a new venture is in the cards this week. Step up to receive your reward!

LIBRA: QUEEN OF COINS

It’s a useful life skill to be your own BFF. The Queen of Coins hints this is a good week to start practicing more self care, because it may be useful down the line. This Queen is practical, resilient, wise and shrewd. Look after yourself physically and spiritually. If you were advising your own bestie in life, what advice would you give? Do that for yourself.

SCORPIO: ACE OF WANDS

There's a new chapter in store for you this week! The Ace of Wands is a bright and breezy card centered around following a passion. It could be a new job, role, education opportunity, hobby or side gig. It’s something that will bring you tons of personal growth. So sign up for whatever motivates you RN–you won’t regret it.

SAGITTARIUS: TWO OF CUPS

Look to the inner workings and chemistry of your closest relationships. The Two of Cups represents those mutually beneficial friendships and partnerships that just work, but it’s good to know why and how, because then you can celebrate and nurture them, or maybe even replicate that magic with others. Invest time this week with those you love and talk about your history together, your ups and downs, and what you love about each other. This knowledge is important!

CAPRICORN: NINE OF WANDS

Something is rearing its ugly head once more, something you feel worn down by. Well, it’s not as bad as it seems, Cappy. The Nine of Wands is a reassuring card about overcoming any recurring obstacles, because you'll feel soooo much better when you do. Also, they're not even that bad to begin with–but putting them off has made them seem a lot more foreboding. Go get ‘em this week! You'll be fine.

AQUARIUS: THE FOOL

The Fool is the first card of the tarot and the patron saint of new beginnings, even ones that might raise an eyebrow from other people. So what inspires you RN? What new adventure do you yearn to begin? And most importantly: What’s stopping you? The universe is pushing you towards it, so get to it. To hell with what others say–this is YOUR life.

PISCES: TEN OF SWORDS

You’re a kind person, Pisces, and you hate to upset anyone. But the downside is that you can linger in negative (even toxic) situations or relationships for too long. The Ten of Swords promotes a powerful "ENOUGH!" energy, urging you to cut out something (or someone) this week, once and for all. Some things just won’t improve, so withdraw and move on.
