A Full Moon in Leo and Valentine’s will be making us feel nostalgic and playful, loving and imaginative, keen to share our feelings and eager to hear what others think about us.
It’s a week for revealing admirers and true feelings, for sharing love and compliments, for treating ourselves and having fun with the Valentine’s theme.
Shall we let the tarot tell us how we’re seen by the world right now? What are we projecting or being known for?
The tarot can be a mirror. Let’s take a look…
Aries
March 21 to April 20
Tarot card for Aries for this week: Eight of Wands
Meaning: You are seen as the hub of everything, the nerve centre, the finger on the pulse, the one in the know.
Eight of Wands is about communication and being in the middle of the network with all the access and opportunities. Enjoy this status (I know it takes a lot of energy), and share the news, invites, goodwill, and favours you reap. You are a great talker, a lively presence, and an unforgettable friend/colleague/partner. Go light up someone’s life!

Taurus
April 21 to May 21
Tarot card for Taurus for this week: Eight of Coins
Meaning: You are seen as the hardest worker in the room, the determined, stoic and relentless force who always gets the job done.
Eight of Coins is about never giving up or in. Always working to your full ability, even when tired or frustrated and, for this quality, you are trusted and relied on by many folk. People look to your level of commitment to pressure test if it’s still ‘worth it’. You are a wonderful worker and achiever. Go be successful!

Gemini
May 22 to June 21
Tarot card for Gemini for this week: Five of Swords
Meaning: You are seen as the fire starter, the catalyst for drama and danger, the shake-it-all-up chaos agent. Sometimes this is good, sometimes not. But it’s never dull or predictable!
Five of Swords is a spiky energy but there’s always a good reason underneath – and the spikiness gets people’s attention so that solutions and resolutions are brought to the table, change happens. Without the ‘noise’ everything would stagnate. You’re never silent when you could speak up. You’re never inert when you could act. Go make something happen!

Cancer
June 22 to July 23
Tarot card for Cancer for this week: Three of Swords
Meaning: You are seen as both the ultimate healer and nurturer as well as the ultimate revenge and betrayal wielder. You have light and dark power.
Three of Swords is about relationship turmoil, betrayal, cruelty and angst. You can dish it out but only when pushed, and maybe someone deserves it right now… You can also heal it for other folk and people queue to speak to you about their problems. They just need to remember to repay the attention and respect or they may meet the other you! You are a natural healer, comforter, soother, and source of compassion.

Leo
July 24 to August 23
Tarot card for Leo for this week: Seven of Swords
Meaning: You are seen as a protector of the vulnerable, challenged, struggling, and weakened. You cannot stand bullies or cruelty, and you always defend those who can’t defend themselves.
Seven of Swords is about folk who simply don’t have other people’s welfare at heart, who prey on the weak, who fall into mean-spirited and spiteful behaviour. You can see them coming, and what’s more, you can help others spot and deter them too. You are a natural warrior and protector. Go lend your strength and courage to someone, to help them stand up for themselves!

Virgo
August 24 to September 23
Tarot card for Virgo for this week: Nine of Swords
Meaning: You are seen as the person to turn to in a crisis, who understands the things people don’t want to admit to, and has practical, tried-and-tested solutions to the problems at hand, and is willing to help.
Nine of Swords is about admitting to, voicing, sharing, and resolving the deepest darkest fears in life. Other people see you as a calm and compassionate presence, and a place they can lay down their woes. You are a natural supporter, organiser, and problem solver. Go help someone deal with something that is getting on top of them!

Libra
September 24 to October 23
Tarot card for Libra for this week: Eight of Swords
Meaning: You are seen as a mirror. You are able to diplomatically, strategically, and intelligently adapt to whoever you are with, so that you get the most out of that interaction. It’s magic.
Eight of Swords is about projection and, in this case with your hardwired shape-shifting skills, it reflects your invaluable tact, charm, persuasion, and mirroring ability. You hide your true nature much deeper down. What is visible is very fluid. You are a pitcher, seller, influencer and persuader. Go change someone’s mind for the better!
