The Nine of Wands has a message for these dark times.
Hello, Your Weekly Tarot Horoscope Is Here
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: NINE OF WANDS
I know things might seem bleak right now, and you’re not alone in this emotion—it's creeping up on all of us, at different times, for different reasons. As they say, we're all in the same storm, if not the same boat. So be kind. Be patient. Keep going. A renewal lies ahead, and we're getting close to it. The Nine of Wands is a reassurance that things are not AS bleak as your fears would have you believe. There IS a light ahead. Identify your fears this week, say them out loud, and you'll find that not all of them are as bad as they seem. Whatever worries remain, address them head-on. Make a list of obstacles and begin knocking them down. You can do this.
ARIES: PAGE OF COINS
Life brings us lessons, from all directions, and they never stop. The Page of Coins asks you to think of things that have hurt or worried you as learning experience. Try and extract the wisdom, and then act on it. When we reframe our hardships this way, they become more manageable. It's true what they say, that failures help us grow. You're stronger for it, bb!
TAURUS: TEN OF WANDS
Everything happens all at once, doesn't it? You're one of the strongest signs, but you have a limit, and you're reaching it. The Ten of Wands is a burn out card; it shows up when we need a break. So, take it. Rest, relax, cancel stuff, chill. Your mind and body need a time-out, and it’s your responsibility to make that happen. Taurus, you need to rest.
GEMINI: FOUR OF WANDS
You want to make progress, Gemini, so go for that promotion, apply for that job, start a new workout routine, or redecorate your home. The Four of Wands brings positive opportunity and good luck, so use this week to get ahead in whichever area you choose—this card applies to work, money, home and health. You can go further than you think is possible, so aim high! It will pay off.
CANCER: SIX OF CUPS
You're in a playful, social mood, Cancer! You thrive when you're close to others, feeling needed and valued. Look for this energy this week, and refuel. The Six of Cups shows that your friends will help you restore your mojo. Spend time with people who make you laugh—they'll help you feel better in these troubling times. Let them know how much they mean to you.
LEO: THE MAGICIAN
The Magician is an amazing card about creativity, creation, entrepreneurship, and using your natural-given talents to live a luxurious life. So, Leo, what’s happening? Whatever projects, applications, ideas, or projects you’ve got on the back burner, turn up the heat. A big stroke of luck is heading your way. You're a natural-born entrepreneur—maybe now is the time to manifest this dream!
VIRGO: QUEEN OF CUPS
Your relationships are at the very center of your world this week, and they require your attention. The Queen of Cups sees you being led by your heart over your head, prioritizing how you feel over your duties—and this is a welcome change. Say how you feel! Ask about others' feelings! Make memories with your friends! Get closer to your boo! And yes, if there's someone you're crushing on, go ahead and slide into those DMs.
LIBRA: THREE OF WANDS
For such a charmer, you actually prefer working alone. But Libra, the Three of Wands asks you to ditch that strategy this week. You can go further when you work with others, and you can join something bigger and more powerful than you could achieve alone. Lean into what others are working on this week, and make a difference as a group.
SCORPIO: THE SUN
The Sun is the tarot’s most positive card, and it promises that joy, prosperity, and success are waiting for you. The entry fee? Confidence! Whether it’s in your relationships, work, personal development, or hobbies, there's an ambition you've been thinking about. It feels out of reach, but this card’s presence reassures you that it’s not. You've just got to make your move! Act like you’ve made it. Be bold. Pursue this dream. It can happen.
SAGITTARIUS: PAGE OF SWORDS
You feel conflicted about something or someone, and you’re unsure what your next step should be. You have an idea that you think is promising, but then something makes you second-guess yourself. If you’re not 100% sure about what you want to do, the Page of Swords asks you to wait until you are. Acting indecisively can do more harm than good Focus on making your mind up this week.
CAPRICORN: QUEEN OF SWORDS
Me, myself, and I—that's how you like it. When you’re relying yourself to get the job done, you know it's going to get done, and get done right. This week, focus on a project that needs your attention. Make a plan and put it into action without any distraction. The Queen of Swords shows that you’ve got the determination, insight, clarity, and concentration to stick with this task until it’s done. Make sure you celebrate when it's finished!
AQUARIUS: KNIGHT OF SWORDS
A little less conversation, a little more action, please, Aquarius. You’re tired of all the talking, and you’re ready to go make a difference. You're the most progressive sign of the zodiac, and NOW is the time to prove it. The Knight of Swords is combative, effective, and ballsy. He's urging you to stop talking and just act. So do it!
PISCES: THE HIEROPHANT
You’re feeling reflective this week, Pisces. The world has gotten very loud and very disturbing recently, and you need to process. That’s okay. Your empathetic nature makes it hard to deal with extremes. The Hierophant is gently guiding you through this phase, leading you to a revised set of values and priorities that you can rely on. Ask yourself what, or who, you truly believe in. What do you value most? When you know, you can prioritize your energy around it and feel secure.
