Your Weekly Tarot Card Reading, Based on Your Sign

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: THE WORLD

This is the final card of the tarot deck—and The World is all about bringing an end to something, celebrating your progress, savoring the day, and reveling in what you have achieved. You don’t need to do anything other than celebrate the moment and have an absolute blast with those you love this week. 2020 awaits, and soon it’ll be time to lay down your plans and schemes for the year ahead…but not right now. This week, congratulate your friends, family, colleagues, and yourself on all that’s happened this year. Life is good. I’ll drink to that!

ARIES: PAGE OF COINS

The cards are pointing to an earth sign (aka Capricorn, Virgo, or Taurus) this week, someone who has the potential to help you see things differently. Something happened in 2019 that you still haven’t gotten your head around, and this person can help you get a different angle on it, seeing it through a new lens (one that helps you spot the life lesson). So don’t be scared to open up and talk through your tough times this week, not to reopen the wounds but to hear a different take on it!

TAURUS: THE STAR

Taurus, I think you’re in for one of your best weeks ever! The Star is a wish-come-true card, promising to make a big, flashy dream a reality. The higher you aim, the better the outcome, so go for the biggest and bestest ~thing~ you can think of. Show the Universe, with overt moves, what (or who) it is you want, and you will receive good fortune and opportunity from the cosmos. Go for it, bb!

GEMINI: EIGHT OF CUPS

You have your fingers in so many pies, Gemmy, it’s inevitable that not all of them will bake to perfection. You like to hedge your bets, keep your options open, which means that more things may ~fail~ than succeed. But you’re actually okay with that! (*deep breaths*) This week, the Eight of Cups asks you to acknowledge where one such project is not working out. Let it go. Clear the decks before the New Year rolls around so that you’re not dragging any unnecessary baggage into 2020.

CANCER: THREE OF WANDS

Opportunity knocks this week, Cancer—are you open for business? Hope so, because the Three of Wands will provide plenty of chances to try something new, hang with different people, and make progress in areas of your life that have felt blegh recently. All you need to do is show up, be curious, and keep in touch. Go hustle!

LEO: QUEEN OF CUPS

Sexy is the default setting for Leos. You are naturally glamorous and alluring—it just, IDK, happens. Well, if you were on fire before, you’re a raging inferno now! The Queen of Cups makes you feel deliciously and decidedly provocative, in the mood for seduction, flirtation, and romance. Good thing it’s nearly the holidays and you’ve got all those parties to put this sizzling energy to good use. Look out for an equally racy water sign (see: Pisces, Scorpio, Cancer). It’s going to get ~hot~ this wintery season.

VIRGO: TEN OF CUPS

You know, it’s the little things that make the difference, isn’t it?? You always pay attention to the detail, Virgo, and you note the small stuff (and not just in your inner list of grudges). The Ten of Cups brings lots of little, everyday acts of kindness and appreciation into your life via your closest relationships this week, and it makes your heart go all fluttery. Make a fuss of your closest peeps this week, Virgo—they deserve it.

LIBRA: FIVE OF WANDS

It’s no surprise that some people get super stressed out, even irritated, by the holiday season, and there are a few of these bah humbug types in your circle rn, Libra. The Five of Wands advises you to avoid ’em as much as you can, steer clear of their rants or dramas, and just smile and nod if you get cornered and can’t escape. It’s them, not you. Don’t let them spoil your good vibes. Zip past them to better options in your social circle.

SCORPIO: THE HIEROPHANT

The Hierophant is all about customs and traditions, and its presence signals that you need to activate those rituals, nostalgic activities, and practices that make the holidays feel cozy, magical, and happy for you. When we get older, we sometimes miss the magic that the festivities held when we were kids. Invest some thought in planning something that will make you feel supes warm and fuzzy this year! And leave out something sweet (spiked eggnog?) for Santa.

SAGITTARIUS: FIVE OF CUPS

’Tis the season for bumping into exes and Ghosts of Christmas Past, ya know. It’s like reunion central! The Five of Cups is a nudge from the Universe to keep your eyes firmly on the future, Sag. Don’t get tempted back into toxic relationships just because they are there and the mistletoe is hanging above your head. What went wrong before will probs only go wrong again, and you’ve moved on now. Say hi and then bye.

CAPRICORN: PAGE OF SWORDS

Pay attention to the teeny cuties in your world this week, Cap. The Page of Swords represents the nieces and nephews, younger siblings, cousins, kiddos you love. Make them feel special this festive season and the warm glow you create will reach your own heart. You can (forgive me) be a liiil bit Grinch-y sometimes (Cap, you’re a serious person), so to receive a warm hug and message from you will be more meaningful than you realize.

AQUARIUS: PAGE OF CUPS

The Page of Cups is a dreamy character who uses their imagination to create wonderful experiences to entertain themselves and those they love. This is YOU, this week, Aquarius. You *are* the dream maker, the wish fulfiller, and the magician. Put a smile on others’ faces. Treat, surprise, compliment, and amaze ’em all! You’re a creative and intellectual character—there’s little you couldn’t make happen if you put your mind to it. Go put on a great show.

PISCES: TWO OF WANDS

Progress is what’s important this week, in any direction, quite frankly. Don’t be tempted, warns the Two of Wands, to let matters drift or to take the let’s-wait-and-see approach, because you’ll be the one left waiting…and then waiting some more. Decide on a course of action and make it happen. Don’t waste time wondering—ask! Don’t sit home alone—go out! Don’t leave it up to them—say what you want! Assertiveness will get you further than you think is possible rn.
