A GENERAL CARD FOR EVERYONE: EIGHT OF WANDS
The Eight of Wands is a nudge to get yourself in the thick of things, be at the center of the action, and enjoy the swirling new energies and opportunities that emerge. It’s who, not what, you know this week. Information is key. Brush up your professional profile and network. Socialize. Reach out to former coworkers and classmates. Go where the action is. Be around others. It's time to make some powerful connections.

ARIES: THE TOWER
Don’t fear The Tower. It’s a powerful card, for sure. It's a reminder that some events in life are sudden, dramatic, game-changing, and maybe even tinged with negativity. However, nothing is all one shade. We live in shades of grey, not black and white. Even the most negative impact can have positive outcomes. Seek the silver lining of the bad sh*t that has happened to you over 2023. Look for the life lessons. Be resilient and face up to what has upset or scared you. Learn from the hard stuff and you will grow exponentially this week.
TAURUS: KNIGHT OF PENTACLES
You are a very Knight of Pentacles character: Determined, protective, guarded, and security-focused. You work hard (when you're motivated, at least), but you expect rewards. Your efforts are not going into a vacuum; there has to be an output, recognition, and ideally, payback. So, are you happy with what you’re getting for your efforts? If not, this is the week to demand what’s fair and deserved. Be pushy. If you don’t ask, you don’t get.
GEMINI: FIVE OF CUPS
A little echo of sadness or regret will bubble up in your emotional realm this week. It’s only momentary, so don’t leap in after it and dwell in a pool of unhappy memories. Just acknowledge it. Take a break, do something comforting, and then release it so you can move along. This is good practice for stemming the overthinking or self-recrimination you (or your twin self) are so good at. Practice seeing, feeling, and releasing emotion.
CANCER: THE WHEEL OF FORTUNE
Look out! The Wheel of Fortune rolls up and rocks your world in the process. Are you ready for transformation? Are you hoping things will change? Are you open to a new path? Good! The best way to work with this energy is to activate a big, significant, much-desired change in your life. Go push that wheel in the right direction. What unfolds will be a little chaotic with all the energies being stirred up. Enjoy the ride and don’t sweat the small stuff. You’re going in the right direction, even if there are a couple of (interesting) detours.
LEO: SEVEN OF CUPS
Live the dream, Leo. I’m not being twee or inspirational, I am being literal. This card is about taking whatever your most heartfelt daydream or fantasy is, and actually going after it. Why not? What is life for if not to experience the things you most want? Why deny yourself? If you don’t go for this, then what are you settling for instead? Take the Seven of Cups as full permission to chase your dreams, make everyone jealous, and get what you really, truly want. You can do it.
VIRGO: THE STAR
Make a wish! Not just for the sake of it, but because you got The Star this week, which is the tarot’s most powerful cosmic wish-granter. If you clarify your goal, visualize your dream unfolding, believe in it happening, act like it is, and make direct moves in its direction, then you will find magic happening all around you this week. The stars will align to bring you good fortune and the opportunity to manifest your dream. I am not kidding. This is a magical week.
LIBRA: SIX OF PENTACLES
Sometimes, dare I say it, you can miss seeing what's fair if you're hoping for a specific outcome. Your objectivity is 20/20 when it comes to other people’s situations, but not always your own. You weigh the scales in your own favor. There, I said it. So… this week, the Six of Pentacles asks you to be deliberately focus on other people, even if it feels unnatural. Do good, be generous, give the benefit of the doubt, go the extra mile, and put more into it. And then the scales will balance and you will be happier. Trust me.
SCORPIO: TWO OF SWORDS
You are a deep well of emotion, analysis, and opinion. People have no idea. Although you seem direct, confident, and action-orientated, you actually have a whole world of under-the-radar stuff you’re thinking about that NO ONE has any idea about. The Two of Swords asks you to drag one of those items out into the light this week and bring clarity and resolution to the situation. You have procrastinated, agonized, and judged for long enough. Time for action. Get this out of your subconscious and into real life.
SAGITTARIUS: THREE OF PENTACLES
People adore you (in general, mostly, when they’re not in your firing line). The Three of Pentacles shows you’re going to enjoy a "Sagittarius Appreciation Week" full of wonderful opportunities, invitations, and compliments. Show up, be present, and make sure you’re visible to people with influence. Be attentive to what it is they say they like, admire, and respect about you. Know your strength, purpose, and potential. This is a great time to develop your own self-awareness through the eyes of others.
CAPRICORN: KING OF PENTACLES
It’s your perfect week, Cap! The King of Pentacles is you at your absolute best: leading, setting an example, being strong, getting what you deserve, creating wealth, and securing a legacy. Be bold and take control. Pursue your own agenda. Help others along the way. Think about the long game and what’s best for Future You. Take responsibility and for making the actions happen and correcting things if they go awry. There's no blame or recrimination, just new steps and more lessons. Live, learn, earn, and thrive. Be your best self and show them what you can do.
AQUARIUS: PAGE OF WANDS
Some people would describe you as a little chaotic or unpredictable—they never know what your next focus is going to be (and newsflash, neither do you!). The Page of Wands has you delivering that side of yourself this week, so expect the unexpected and don’t commit yourself to a strict schedule. Leave some wiggle room because you’re going to have some lightbulb moments, spontaneous ideas, and a few off-tangent diversions. Go with it. Experiment and play, but make sure you have the room to do so. Don’t over-commit.
PISCES: TEMPERANCE
Temperance reveals you craving solitude this week, seeking distance from the action and noise so that you can process recent events and get your head around things. It’s important self-care homework! Sometimes your sense of stability is rocked by what happens around you, and you have to reconnect to the new normal. This is an adjustment period. Be patient. Take a time-out.
