Aquarius is everywhere now, the season has begun, Mercury moves that way soon and a New Moon in Aquarius ends our month of January.
Aquarians are truthful, freedom-loving, spontaneous, progressive, and unique. So be weird this week. Be eccentric. Dance to your own beat.
Cast off expectations and shackles and follow your own pursuits and passions, no matter what other people say. If anyone does say anything, then just reply ‘I’m embracing the energy of Aquarius!’
What does the tarot think you should do?
Aries
March 21 to April 20
Tarot card for Aries for this week: Seven of Cups
Meaning: The tarot wants you to pull an amazing, larger than life, wild idea out of your imagination and take it seriously this week.
What would it take to make this come true? What’s the first step in that journey? When could you feasibly make that step? Just plan a week at a time, one step at a time (because each step opens up the next). But start now. You can do this!

Taurus
April 21 to May 21
Tarot card for Taurus for this week: Eight of Swords
Meaning: Cast off, shatter, and confound others’ expectations of you! And you’ll know what I am talking about here. All Taureans have an outer image (well known and long held), which is useful and helps you skate along with minimum effort at times, but actually doesn’t always match what’s going on beneath that façade.
Release the inner you this week! Do something that no one expects (maybe even yourself). Shake it all up a bit.

The cosmic forces are working harder than you are even to bring you a breakthrough, a moment of clarity and enlightenment, that will light up the way ahead. A much easier and faster way ahead. The prizes for this work are all still there and you can get grab them. But keep going, okay.

Tackle it head on. Break it down into chunks and bite down on them each day. The meal will be shorter than you think because you’re getting cosmic help. Get rid of this dread and face the problem.
