Your Weekly Tarot Card Reading Is Telling You to Network
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: EIGHT OF WANDS
Time to network, reunite, and check in. The Eight of Wands is all about placing yourself in the center of a communications storm. When you are in conversation with others, you're open to receiving information, insight, and opportunities. We all probably get many of our opportunities in life based on who we know, not what we know. Embrace that truism this week—get out there and network. You never know where a conversation could lead.
ARIES: JUDGMENT
Judgment sees you taking stock of where you are right now, reflecting on the progress you’ve made and the lessons you’ve learned, and, as a result, receiving a bit of a wake-up call. This is all for your own benefit, and these realizations aren't negative. You're seeing who you really are, what you’re good at, and how you can make the most of your talents. When you know yourself, you know your opportunity.
TAURUS: FIVE OF PENTACLES
Taurus, it’s okay! It's over and the worst has passed. You’re free to let this go, move ahead, and try again. The Five of Pentacles is a reassurance that you’ve survived something, and you can put it behind you now. You don’t need to keep dreading the arrival of the next aftershock—it's finished. So, brush yourself off. You’re a survivor. Celebrate your strength and look ahead to the future.
GEMINI: KNIGHT OF PENTACLES
Time to make some shrewd, practical moves re: your money, home, and career, Gemini. The Knight of Pentacles is always on the defensive; he works hard to build up his resources. Take this tarot card as an opportunity to ask for a promotion or raise, find the insurance you need, start investing, or revamp your budget. Hard work is needed, but the rewards are there if you’re willing to make these moves.
CANCER: STRENGTH
Staying in your comfort zone is all well and good sometimes, but not this week, okay? In fact, you know this. Because as much as you love your comfort zone, you’ve felt a bit bored lately. Strength asks you to set yourself a goal or challenge this week, something inspiring that you’ve thought about doing for a while. NOW is the time. You can schedule a reward for the end of the week when you’ve achieved what you set out to do. Make this week work hard for you.
LEO: SEVEN OF CUPS
Leo, you have a great imagination, but this week, the Seven of Cups gives you with the most powerful daydreams you’ve had for a long time. Don’t waste them! Get them ALL down on paper. You might not think it, but these daydreams are actually potential blueprints for the life you could seek to lead. Follow your daydreams. Take them seriously.
VIRGO: DEATH
Death is not the scary, horrible card that people seem to think it is. It doesn’t mean someone is dying. Instead, it's all about transformation. Something is likely fading in your life—it could be a job, a relationship, a hobby, or a goal. You know it's time to close this chapter; you've felt it for a while now. Now is the right time to acknowledge this, say goodbye, and start considering what will replace it. Every ending precedes a new beginning. Recognize this pattern in your own world.
LIBRA: KNIGHT OF CUPS
How do you feel about a week of fun, pleasure, and indulgence? Good? I thought so! Well, lucky you, Libra, because that is exactly what the Knight of Cups recommends. You're here for a good time, not a long time. You're here to experience all that life has to offer. So, head out into the world and do just that. Seek inspiration, excitement, beauty, and reward. Do things you like with people you love. Visit places that look interesting. Spend time doing activities you know bring you joy. Have fun!
SCORPIO: PAGE OF PENTACLES
Live and learn. It’s a good ethos for life, because life lessons never stop coming at us. The Page of Pentacles asks you to think of the events and situations in your life as stimulus for new life lessons. What are you being taught? What are you being forced to analyze? What can you teach someone else? Consider the next seven days your opportunity to do some truly meaningful living and learning.
SAGITTARIUS: THE HANGED MAN
The Hanged Man shows up when we’re feeling stuck. You're trying and trying, but things just aren’t paying off like they’re supposed to. You’ve done all the work, but you're not seeing results. Sometimes you're too close to the situation to see what needs to change. So, the answer is to step back and go do something else. When your mind is elsewhere, it’s likely your subconscious will bring you the next step to unlock your progress again.
CAPRICORN: TWO OF WANDS
You recently started something (a role, job, activity, or relationship), and it’s been going okay...but now you need to take a closer look now and decide if it's worth sticking with. You’re a busy person, and you have a finite amount of time and energy. The Two of Wands asks you to assess the effort vs. reward of this new thing, and to measure it vs. everything else you’ve got going on. Is it worth it or not? Make a choice.
AQUARIUS: FIVE OF SWORDS
Being up close and personal with the Five of Swords is never pleasant. It means there are tensions or even outright arguments around you. However, the way through this situation is to step back and to look for the root cause of these events. Something is wrong and needs adjusting. Zoom in to see what is buried underneath all of this noise. Find what's driving the conflict, and start a conversation about that. Try to get people to attack the problem vs. each other.
PISCES: THE MAGICIAN
The Magician is my favorite tarot card. It represents entrepreneurs, solo operators, creatives, and artists. Which one are you? Or which one would you like to be? This week, you can start out on the path towards a role that plays entirely to your strengths and allows you to create something. Wouldn’t you love to wake up to that kind of lifestyle? Pisces, it can start here. Spend time wondering this week. Make a move.
