Hello, Your Weekly Tarot Card Reading Is Here

From Cosmopolitan

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: THE EMPEROR

The Emperor is a powerful card that nudges us to evaluate the messages, actions, and energy we are putting out into the world. Can you say that you're really contributing ~good vibes~? If you’re not, stop and change things! If you’re trying your best, keep on going. If you really want to get ahead, focus on your goals. The Emperor gives us all a surge of ambition and strength that we can put to use.

ARIES: FOUR OF SWORDS

You burn brightly, Aries. It’s part of why others are drawn to you, but it can also mean that you need more time to recharge than you'd like. The Four of Swords is like a cosmic sick note, advising you to take it easy this week. Do whatever it takes to restore your mood and energy. Eat well. Sleep in. Chill out.

TAURUS: TEN OF CUPS

Your love life is sizzling this week, Taurus! And that's music to your ears. After all, your ruling planet is the goddess of love herself, Venus. Whatever your current situation is, expect things to heat up considerably this week—and after. The Ten of Cups promises all good things CAN last if you put in the effort. Invest in your love life!

GEMINI: SIX OF SWORDS

You’re not really a sentimental kind of person, Gemini, but it can still be hard for you to let go of things/people you're used to. Well, it’s time, Gemini. The Six of Swords is a signal to make that leap. It won’t be anywhere near as painful as you’ve imagined. So take action this week. It's time.

CANCER: ACE OF COINS

Most things start small, if you really think about it. Something that will become very important to you later on is waiting to make its debut this week, so pay close attention. The Ace of Coins shows that there’s an acorn waiting to drop in your lap, and it can grow into a big tree over time. Look for new interactions, offers, people, activities, or places in your world.

LEO: THREE OF WANDS

Opportunity knocks, Leo! Clear the deck to make way for all the new invitations and offers that will come out of nowhere this week. The Three of Wands is a chance-y kind of card, representing the fleeting opportunities we need to respond to quickly and positively. You’re a spontaneous and reactive kind of person, Leo, so you can handle this flurry of good fortune.

VIRGO: NINE OF CUPS

Make a wish, but keep it to yourself! Do whatever manifesting rituals or good luck routines you do when you're wishing for something big. The Nine of Cups promises that there is magic all around you this week, Virgo. The Universe will make your dream come true if you act this week. Go after what you’ve always wanted—it’s yours.

LIBRA: SEVEN OF SWORDS

Protect your own interests this week, Libra. Make sure you’re being cautious in any areas or relationships where you feel a little insecure or uncertain. The Seven of Swords is a warning to guard yourself. Keep your walls up. Research everything. Ask questions. By being mindful and watchful, you can avoid any potential issues and move forward unscathed.

SCORPIO: THE WORLD

Where are you heading? Where are you now? Where in your life do you need change? The World is the tarot’s final card, representing achievement, as well as actual location and travel. Consider the space you occupy, both physically and symbolically. Do you want to move? Do you want to explore? Ask yourself these questions and pay attention to the answers. You could finally find your perfect niche.

SAGITTARIUS: PAGE OF SWORDS

Once you’ve made your mind up, you'll feel so much better, Sag. This indecisiveness and procrastination is exhausting. The Page of Swords shows that you feel conflicted and unsure about what to do right now. That’s okay! Make your move with confidence, and then pause to reflect and decide on your next step. Get yourself un-stuck.

CAPRICORN: TEN OF SWORDS

You know it, deep down, and now I know it too: It’s time to move on. The Ten of Swords signals that the time is right to cut your losses on something difficult and draining. It's not going to change or improve, so you may as well go. There’s nothing worth hanging on for. Step away from this toxic situation.

AQUARIUS: NINE OF COINS

Good things take time, and you’re working on something that has enormous long-term potential. The Nine of Coins reassures you that this is the right place to invest your time and energy. It may not pay back quickly, but it WILL be worth it with time. Keep going!

PISCES: THE HANGED MAN

The Hanged Man represents stalled plans—you're stuck in limbo. You just have to put up with it, Pisces. Look for a different way to get around this obstacle. Stop trying to force things, and look at your situation from a different angle instead. Look through new lenses, because there is an answer and a way forwards. Think outside of the box.
