See this whole upcoming week as one of exploration and experimentation – the New Moon in Sagittarius encourages new horizons and the clear-eyed Venus in Aquarius has us seeking pleasure in thinking, debating, rationalising, and pushing boundaries.

We’re being asked to consider how far we can go… both in terms of desire and opportunity or feasibility.

Do you know your limits? Why not experiment this week and see where they are, and whether you can go beyond them?

That aside, let’s use the tarot to direct you towards the one surprise you’ll be pleased to see coming your way this week!

Aries

March 21 to April 20

Tarot card for Aries for this week: The Wheel of Fortune

Meaning: Chaos creates opportunity. Change and the necessity to adapt is often the mother of all invention. The Wheel of Fortune brings this kind of energy into your realm this week, and you’re pleased to see it, because you hate being bored and you enjoy the status quo being kicked about a bit.

Jump in and activate changes of your own, ride the waves of transformation to a new position, destination, and status. Use this energy to propel your own ambitions. Anything is possible this week!

Taurus

April 21 to May 21

Tarot card for Taurus for this week: Seven of Wands

Meaning: A surprise in the form of a competition, rivalry, challenge, or target lands in your realm this week and motivates you to new heights and efforts.

The Seven of Wands places you in pole position, you are set to win, so you can enjoy this whole process, but still try your hardest and deliver your best endeavours because it will create a worthy reputation too. Maybe the prize will be unexpectedly rewarding as well. Maybe a windfall will come along. You are going to win this week.

Gemini

Tarot card for Gemini for this week: Strength

Meaning: You’re always stronger than you think you are. Gemini, so many folk see you as lighthearted, generous, and maybe a little flighty, but that is just a façade, just one of your many alter egos. Underneath, you’re steely and ambitious, resilient and a tad ruthless.

Use all these qualities of strength at your disposal this week to overcome an obstacle or setback you’ve encountered recently. It hurt. It shook you. But now it’s time for the comeback, the return to success and prosperity. You love doing this, shocking them all!

Tarot card for Cancer for this week: Page of Cups

Meaning: Something from your childhood returns to you this week with the loving, imaginative Page of Cups. It might be the rekindling of a long-lost relationship, it might be an idea for the festive season, or a place you used to love visiting, a game you played, a talent you’ve lost sight of.

Whatever it is, welcome it back with open arms because this could be the key to a magical phase of growth and self awareness, of seeing your own life story and where you’ve come from. Reconnect with your inner child.

Tarot card for Leo for this week: Two of Coins

Meaning: This week is going to be full of opportunity, potential, promise, invitations, and new energies. You feel abundant and flowing with new news, and you love it! The key to success is saying yes and jumping into as many new pathways and openings as possible.

Whatever you welcome into your realm this week will yield new ideas and ways forward that could cover you as long as the coming two years. It’s a powerful, pivotal week. So say yes and get in the flow of what’s coming your way!

Virgo

August 24 to September 23

Tarot card for Virgo for this week: Five of Swords

Meaning: A surprising conflict emerges this week that you didn’t see coming and, weirdly, it has a good result for you. Perhaps two people you don’t like much get to duke it out on each other, perhaps someone sticks up for something you too want to see change in, and they get the job done (so you don’t have to, for once).

Don’t get too embroiled, don’t add fuel to the fire. Try to help the participants find the Exit door and get there quickly without too much damage being incurred. Quarrelling isn’t fun… but sometimes the air needs to be cleared, and changes instigated.

Libra

September 24 to October 23

Tarot card for Libra for this week: King of Cups

Meaning: A new friend or lover enters your life this week, always welcome news, and they rock your world. They are on your wavelength and seem to understand you innately and deeply without the effort of having to explain yourself.

They are a little older, and possibly as Water sign – Pisces, Scorpio, Cancer. They are incredibly compassionate, wise, and knowing. They offer comfort and inspiration, truth and hope. You love being in their presence, this is like an early Christmas gift!

October 24 to November 22

Scorpio, you’ve got this (Picture: Getty/Metro.co.uk)

Tarot card for Scorpio for this week: Two of Swords

Meaning: For at least two months, you’ve been ruminating about a difficult decision you wish you didn’t have to tackle. Well, you do need to tackle it and time’s up for procrastination… but this New Moon brings a clear and obvious path ahead into view that you feel comfortable stepping onto.

The Two of Swords adds clarity and imagination to the mix, so you can visualise what needs to be done, what the outcome should be, and how to navigate the tricky bit in between. Get to it and get past this.

Be yourself, be the authentic free spirit your sign is, and enjoy all that life offers spontaneously and magically. The world is a big place and there’s much to explore. Get out there this week, Sag!

Tarot card for Capricorn for this week: Six of Coins

Meaning: An act of generosity will really surprise and please you this week, warming your heart and making you feel like doing something spontaneous and generous too! A knock-on effect that creates a new cycle of good karma in your realm which is very welcome.

Kindness begets more kindness. The Universe will remember what you did and bring you rewards down the line. Remember that people rarely remember everything you said or did, but they will always remember how you made them feel. So, make people feel good this week!

Tarot card for Aquarius for this week: Ace of Coins

Meaning: A new opening to plant a seed for your future prosperity will emerge this week – say yes. This is a long-term thing, it won’t yield immediate results, but it will yield powerful and life-changing results in time (think months vs weeks).

This might pertain to your health, wealth, work or home areas. It is likely to be an investment of some sort, something that you contribute to and do regularly and which builds into a positive effect over time-saving, exercising, restoring, learning, practicing etc…

This isn’t a frivolous endeavour, it’s important to plan milestones of joyful events to work towards, it makes everything in between a little easier and more bearable. Dream big!
