Your Weekly Tarot Card Reading, Based on Your Sign

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: SIX OF COINS

The Six of Coins reminds us that it's nice to be nice. I think of it as the good karma card: Whenever we give our time, resources, or support freely to others, the Universe takes that positive energy and returns it to us down the line. The more good you do for others, the more good will come back to you. So make this a week full of random acts of kindness, compassion, and generosity. Give freely and lovingly, and know that all of this will come back to reward you.

ARIES: KNIGHT OF WANDS

The Knight of Wands is a classic Aries card. The Wands are linked to the element of fire (that's your element, JSYK), and Knights are all about adventure, extremes, and boldness—all your favorite things! You have an exciting week ahead, Aries. Are you ready? Set out on an adventure that lets you chase down your goal. You’ve got this!

TAURUS: QUEEN OF CUPS

Self-care is a B-I-G theme in the Taurean world of indulgence and pleasure. You're ruled by Venus, so pampering yourself and making life feel more beautiful and comfortable comes naturally to you. The Queen of Cups is a nudge to light the candles, get out the face masks, and put your favorite playlist on. Evenings spent relaxing and rebalancing yourself will yield lasting results. Invest in yourself this week.

GEMINI: THE MAGICIAN

The Magician is linked to Mercury, which is your ruling planet, so this is an important week fueled by inspiring communications and creativity. If there’s a role or project you’ve been itching to get into, then this is the right time. You're buzzing with ideas and creative energy—use it to attract wonderful opportunities and say YES to them. This could be a life-changing week for you.

CANCER: NINE OF CUPS

You love to live a romantic, dreamy life—you keep your head in the clouds and love to be swept off your feet. Well, you’ll enjoy this coming week, Cancer, because the Nine of Cups brings your most heart-felt fantasies to life. Seriously! The higher you aim, the better the outcome, so invest in your most tantalizing daydreams. They CAN come true. Make an deliberate move in their direction, and watch your life take on a movie-like quality. When you wish upon a star…

LEO: KING OF COINS

You need to take the lead (which you love to do, I know, Leo). Right now, there's something going on at work—others have lost their heads and are floundering. Step in and show them what a boss looks like! The King of Coins brings you the strength, resilience, confidence, and wisdom to see what the right thing to do is—then to do it. If you lead, I promise they will follow.

VIRGO: FOUR OF CUPS

You’re yearning for someone or something you THINK you want—but trust me, you don’t. You already have what you need right now! The Four of Cups shows up when we’re overlooking our own gifts and advantages. We're gazing into the horizon, hoping for something we don’t already have, but the message is that we don’t even need it. Refocus. Look at (and appreciate) what you’ve already got.

LIBRA: KING OF WANDS

Decision-making is not your strong point—we all know this, Libra. When you have multiple options, you procrastinate rather than make a choice. Well, the King of Wands brings you the answer to your latest dilemma, and it’s the risky option this time. Be brave! Focus on a course of action that feels exciting and presents the greatest opportunity for transformation, because THAT is the option you should pick this week.

SCORPIO: PAGE OF WANDS

Usually, you’re incredibly focused and direct. You know what you want and you go after it ruthlessly. However, the Page of Wands has you feeling all mixed-up and unsure this week. You start something, then lose interest, only to pick up something new, and then feel unsure which one to pursue. Just ride this out, Scorpio. It’s one of those weeks, and this weird mood will quickly pass. Don’t do anything drastic in the meantime.

SAGITTARIUS: QUEEN OF WANDS

Full steam ahead, Sagittarius! The Queen of Wands sweeps into your world with a burst of positive, vibrant energy and a flurry of ideas. She wants you to get things done! No one can live your life for you, and you have total responsibility to create the kind of life you want to lead. What’s stopping you? Nothing. So get to it!

CAPRICORN: TEN OF WANDS

You’re the hardest worker in the zodiac—you know that, Cap. You cross items off your to-do list like none other. It can’t be ALL work and no play, though, and the Ten of Wands shows those scales have tipped too far towards work. Schedule some relaxation and playtime this week. Ditch or delay anything that isn’t urgent. Less is more this week.

AQUARIUS: SIX OF WANDS

You’re exactly where you’re meant to be, Aquarius, and you'll see that this week. The Six of Wands is a cosmic high-five, congratulating you for beating the challenges and making it to this point. It's all been in preparation for what lies ahead and finally, you can see how that pathway will form. Take your first step forward, and know that you're on the right road.

PISCES: THE FOOL

The Fool indicates new beginnings—it shows up when we’re being urged to turn the page and start afresh. It’s never a bad thing; it’s always something motivating, fulfilling, and fun—if maybe a little silly in others’ eyes. Take a deep breath, Pisces, and embark on an exciting new adventure, whatever it is (a relationship, project, career change, lifestyle improvement, hobby, etc.). The stars are aligning to make this new beginning happy and lucky.
