Here’s what the ancient Tarot cards have to say about your Sun sign for this week:
Aries (Mar 21 – Apr 19)
The Universe wants you to face up to your duties and responsibilities to your home, your family, your workplace and your nation. Whatever you do to avoid it, will bring you back to facing it. It’s no longer about blaming others, it’s about accepting ownership for your life and where you stand in the scheme of things. How can you be a better professional? How can you be a better parent? These are the questions you should be answering with your actions. Financially expect gains, and professionally you could find the favour of those above you. Self employed Ariens will attract business opportunities through networking. Health matters require a little more care.
Taurus Apr 20- May 20)
No more sitting on the fence. Speak out for what you believe is to be true. Unexpected enemies may pop out from nowhere and challenge your position and now is the time to defend it. If there are obstacles on your path, look at them as tests in perseverance. You will get what you want dear Taurean, but do be patient and for heaven’s sake, don’t give up now. In personal relationships you may need to be a little more diplomatic with the people who are doing nothing but wasting your time. Avoid gossip, as it could lead to a misunderstanding. Financially a good month and if you’ve made a bucket list, you could very well start ticking off things on it! Health matters show little progress, you may consider a second opinion.
Gemini (May21- June 20)
Place your needs first. Make self-care a priority. Say no if you need to. And take time off work if you feel you need time to just rest. Avoid taking on new projects now, especially if you know they will be tiring. Nourish your soul, watch your diet and be kind to yourself. Friends and family come forward to remind you how much you are loved. And with a positive mindset, you can get to a better place mentally. A holiday may be just the thing your soul craves. And if the stress levels get too much, switch off the phone and go outdoors. Money matters show stability. Health matters require patience.
