Your Weekly Tarot Card Reading, Based on Your Sign
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: PAGE OF CUPS
The Page of Cups is a wholesome, innocent, creative character—and his presence sets the tone for the week ahead. Why not have a go at something new, something imaginative and fun, something that the baby Yoda version of you would’ve loved doing? Painting, roller skating, knitting, visiting your good friend Chuck E. Cheese...whatever TF floats your boat. Sometimes we all need a break from ~adulting~ to discover ways and means to entertain our inner child. Go have fun in the sandpit!
ARIES: FOUR OF COINS
Whatever you normally do on the daily, Aries, just do it all differently this week. The Four of Coins is warning against falling into a rut in your life, a routine of existence that stops you from seeing the spontaneous and amazing opportunities cropping up on your pathway every damn day. Take a different route home, switch desks at work, try a new workout class, have something for lunch that isn’t a sad desk salad, text a friend you haven’t seen in forevs. Shake it up, bb!
TAURUS: THREE OF SWORDS
Someone in your circle has been a dick recently and you’re not okay with it. Nope, not at all. So what are you going to do about it, Taurus? The Three of Swords hints that you need a major ~time-out~ from their presence, so cut ties (for now). I mean, you’re *literally* a bull—you can’t graze on poisonous, stale-AF grass, you need fresh and healthy fodder to chew. Go find it and leave this dickery business behind.
GEMINI: FIVE OF COINS
Don’t worry, be happy. The Five of Coins is a sorrowful card about regrets and grief over events and situations long since gone. We all have these little ~self-pity parties~ occasionally, but there’s really no need—and no positive outcome here. You’re just picking at the scab. The Five of Coins urges you to let it heal over and move on. It’s all done with and it can’t hurt you now. Onward and upward, Gemmy!
CANCER: THE SUN
Major good vibes heading your way this week, Cancer, so enjoy the next seven days—they’re going to be fun, fulfilling, and full of happiness. It doesn’t get much better than that as a forecast, amirite? The Sun is the tarot’s most positive card. It asks you to be confident, have faith in yourself and say YUP! to opportunity. If you step forward, the world will rise up to meet you in a more positive way, in all areas, than you currently believe. Go act bolder than you feel.
LEO: STRENGTH
The Strength card actually represents Leo in the tarot, so this is a very personal card to you. It is about acknowledging and understanding all aspects of your character: the light and the dark, the good and the bad, the positive and the negative. You’re a complicated sum of parts and you need to embrace ALL of it, kitty cat. Don’t suppress, hide, or distort your true nature to appease or impress others. Be who you are. Let them see your true colors, because you’re beautiful and amazing.
VIRGO: TWO OF SWORDS
The Two of Swords is like a powerful, um, sword swinging down, cutting away the weeds and dead trees so that you can see things clearly at last. (What? You don’t live in a forest? Just go with me here.) You’ve been skirting around an issue, burying your head in the sand, not looking it in the eye. This week, you will finally stand your ground and regard this situation fully and truthfully and then make a decision about what you’re going to do. No more running.
LIBRA: FOUR OF CUPS
Seems like you always get into trouble, somehow, when you’re not kept busy, right? The Four of Cups asks you to make sure your Google Cal is looking interesting, lively, and absorbing this week. Keep yourself occupied. There’s a danger, as January draws to an end, of you getting bored and going off the rails. Fun at the time, for sure, but you’ll regret it later and you know it.
SCORPIO: THE EMPEROR
A powerful card for a powerful star sign, so anything is possible this week, Scorpy! The Emperor means business. And business means putting your agenda front and center and being ruthlessly single-minded about focusing on what you want to do rn. That actually sounds like a whole lot of fun to you anyway. Take a 2020 ambition and push it forward this week—use this energy to go further faster than you think you can.
SAGITTARIUS: THE TOWER
An interesting, shall we say, seven days lie in store for you, Sag. The Tower is a challenging card about the collapse or end of situations in our life that we know, deep down, aren’t working but their demise still comes as kind of a shock. So now you’ve had a heads up—brace for impact. The good thing is that it’s all for the best in the long run, and the shock of change will pass in a hot minute. The important thing is to focus on the next step and start to (re)build on firmer foundations.
CAPRICORN: THE HIEROPHANT
You’re not normally one to skip class, break the rules, or take the (tantalizing but morally wobbly) shortcut, but there’s always a first time. A too-good-to-be-true opportunity will arise for you this week, but Cap, please resist it with all your willpower. The Hierophant is a reminder to play by the rules, respect authority, and maintain the ethical standards you value. Whatever looks like temptation, run screaming from it.
AQUARIUS: THREE OF WANDS
Although you are partial to going it alone, this week, you recognize the value of joining forces with others to make your plans and ambitions even bigger and bolder. The Three of Wands is an opportunistic card about seizing fleeting invitations and openings in the moment, saying yes, leaning in to new ideas, and hooking up with like-minded people to make your ideas come to life. Go join in!
PISCES: EIGHT OF CUPS
Disappointment sucks. The Eight of Cups shows that you have been dwelling on a recent one and wondering where to go from here. The answer is: up! Please see that this setback could actually be a good thing. It buys you more time, it has provided some useful wisdom and insight, and it could actually be viewed as preparation for the ~real thing~, which you can still make happen. Don’t linger in your woe. Move on to making new plans, using the lessons you’re learning now.
