Your Weekly Tarot Reading Asks You to Choose One Important Thing

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: TWO OF WANDS

There's a lot of cosmic activity this week with Uranus Retrograde (telling you to take a tech detox and slow down), the New Moon in Virgo (asking you to declutter and streamline your everyday life), and Mars moving into Cancer (indicating repressed feelings and ties to a painful past). The Two of Wands asks us all to prioritize what feels most important and work on it single-mindedly. This is not a time to multitask; sometimes, the best things are done with focus and clear intent. You can’t be everywhere at once, but you can be everything you are. Work out what that is and work on it.

ARIES: TEN OF WANDS

Slow down, Aries! Take it all back to basics and get rid of all the unnecessary, unimportant, non-urgent tasks and commitments. The Ten of Wands is a red flag demanding that you do less. You can’t pour from an empty cup. You need a time out to refuel and revitalize your spirits. This week, clear the decks and prioritize what’s really important, and use the rest of the time for rest. Step back.

TAURUS: KING OF CUPS

Wisdom is usually hard won. We learn the most from our mistakes, failures, and setbacks. They're painful in the moment but valuable in the long run. Many of us make the mistake of feeling shame or guilt for these past missteps. You might be guilty of this because, Taurus, you are a perfectionist who loves control. The King of Cups asks you to reframe the "out of control" moments from your past. Extract the wisdom and life lessons. Be proud of overcoming that moment. Feel good about who you are.

GEMINI: NINE OF PENTACLES

The obstacles are dissolving and the stars are aligning at last. Something has changed, and it feels like you’re going somewhere fast. Keep going, Gemini! Keep building on these successes and laying down more foundations. Success leads to more success, right? Recognize that this is an important moment for you and amplify your momentum. Make the most of it by adding to it and asking for more. You’re unstoppable!

CANCER: PAGE OF WANDS

You like to play it safe. It’s nice to feel secure, but life isn’t always like that—especially when you're making progress and taking risks. Trying something new often feels like a shot in the dark. The Page of Wands asks you to be brave this week. Take a chance and be bold. You can’t really fail; there will always be more options. And the more you step out of your comfort zone (your crab shell!), the easier this all gets, and the further you can go!

LEO: THE LOVERS

Drama, passion, temptation—the Lovers adds some spice to your life this week, and you’re here for it! You are starring in your own reality show and the season premiere is here. Something or someone has caught your eye and it’s turning everything upside-down in your world. You just don’t know which option is going to play out best. Don’t be tempted to play both sides for too long, or you'll risk losing it all. Think carefully. Understand the consequences. Enjoy the ride but do try to do the right thing!

VIRGO: SIX OF WANDS

Good fortune is always welcome, right? A little bit of luck makes all the difference. And luck is on your side right now, Virgo, so go ahead and take a chance. The Six of Wands shows that your winning streak could last the whole month. Make the most of it. Play to your strengths. If you present your best self, people will want even more of you. It’s time you got what was coming—in a good way!

LIBRA: THE MAGICIAN

The Magician is a fantastic card, bringing positive creative energy into your world. Prepare yourself for a game-changing week, Libra! You will feel imaginative and inventive, like you’re ready to create something brand-new. This might be personal or career-related. You might want to learn a new skill or return to something you were good at as a child. Go after it! The universe wants you to do this thing and will help make it happen. Get ready to create!

SCORPIO: QUEEN OF SWORDS

Who told you no? Who said you couldn’t—or shouldn’t—do what you want to do? Well, take it from the Queen of Swords: They have no right to project their opinion onto you, and it’s probably just jealousy or insecurity making them do so. Ignore the haters and carry on shining, Scorpio. You can unsettle some people because you’re so confident and powerful. You don’t ask for permission or even advice. You just do what you want to do. Well, keep on doing just that. The Queen of Swords brings luck to all personal challenges, solo missions, and dreams.

SAGITTARIUS: THREE OF WANDS

The Three of Wands reflects the way you like to live your life, Sagittarius: Spontaneous, in the moment, and carefree. You like taking each day it as it comes. You don’t care for plans and schedules. Well, you're in for a real adventure this week. Anything is possible and anything could happen. Resist attempts to restrain or constrict you, and take as much free time and space as you can. You’re going to use all of it! You just don’t know exactly how yet…

CAPRICORN: KNIGHT OF PENTACLES

Margie Rischiotto+Rider-Waite

If ever a card matched a zodiac sign, then the Knight of Pentacles is Capricorn. You're both hardworking, determined, and practical. This week is going to play to your natural strengths and reward them. To others it might look difficult, but to you it’s a walk in the park. Play to your strengths, show off your talents, and spend time doing what you enjoy. You will impress the right people and attract admiration from those who could influence your future.

AQUARIUS: THE HANGED MAN

Margie Rischiotto+Rider-Waite

The Hanged Man represents out-the-box thinking that unlocks the answer to a puzzle. It suggests you’re stuck in a frustrating limbo. You keep trying the same combination but the lock won’t move. Aquarius, step back. Get out of your own head and look at this situation from other perspectives. Imagine you’re someone else, or actually ask someone else for feedback. Analyze the facts rationally, then project yourself ahead five years and look back. Somewhere in the kaleidoscope of lenses is the right answer. You’re closer than you think. But it’s not what you think.

PISCES: THE HIGH PRIESTESS

You are naturally psychic, Pisces. Illusions, secrets, and hidden knowledge flow easily towards you. Although you’re not exactly practical, your mind is a truly powerful tool and you can see what others cannot. The High Priestess wants you in full psychic mode this week. Get out your tarot or oracle cards, get a birth chart reading, visit a medium, take a moon bath, meditate, whatever! There are answers, insights, and ideas waiting for you to access them. It’s time to turn inwards.
