Mars moving into Virgo (put practical efforts into your ambitions, get organised and dive into the details of your plans) and Cancer season (healing, happy home, intimate relationship bliss) both land on our doorstep this week. Lots going on!
In summary, both transits ask us to get the foundations right before taking anything to the next level. And, for anything feeling a bit wobbly…, take it all back to the foundations and make your repairs at that level.
You cannot rely or build on shaky territory. Let the tarot guide you towards the root cause you need to zoom in on and work on this week, to create perfection in your realm!

Aries
March 21 to April 20
Tarot card for Aries for this week: The Emperor
Meaning: You might be the problem, Aries – you are the drama! The Emperor represents your sign and is also a symbol of imbalanced power dynamics, one person having too much force and control, or being put upon too often.
Where do you feel this in your relationship realm? Where are things feeling unfair and imbalanced? Take responsibility to help put it right. Tackle this head on. Even if it’s you who is the done to, speak up and call it out. What isn’t acknowledged can’t be changed.

Taurus
April 21 to May 21
Tarot card for Taurus for this week: Four of Cups
Meaning: The root cause of your current mood is boredom and taking things for granted. I know that’s hard to hear as it feels like it’s your own fault, therefore, but actually it’s good news. Nothing is fundamentally broken or lacking. You are already wealthy and abundant. You have just lost sight of that.
So, refocus. Be forcibly grateful for all you have… and the mood will change, and the vibration will rise, and then more goodies will find their way to you!

Gemini
May 22 to June 21
Tarot card for Gemini for this week: Four of Wands
Meaning: You are very good at amplifying and building and putting bells and whistles on things… but this Four of Wands is a nudge to make sure you know what you’re working on, and stick to it.
Don’t get distracted. Don’t leave stuff half-baked. Don’t start something new and glossy whilst you abandon things you’re halfway into. Success is driven by consistency, by determination, by sticking to your game plan. Remember that and you will have a highly successful week.

Cancer
June 22 to July 23
Tarot card for Cancer for this week: The Fool
Meaning: As a Cardinal sign (born at the start of a season) you’re gifted in creation, activation, having the gumption to turn the page and write a new story. The Fool amplifies that power this week and asks you to bring forward your new chapter, even if you don’t feel ready. No one ever does, really. We all make it up as we go along and every step reveals new options so you can never plan too far ahead anyway.
The root cause issue facing you is your own reluctance to leave whatever comfort zone and familiar space you’re in. But it’s time. Seize the day and make the move. It’s time to start anew.

Leo
July 24 to August 23
Tarot card for Leo for this week: King of Coins
Meaning: Resources are the root cause of your current situation – maybe lack of. You feel stuck because you don’t have what you’d like have to hand. Leo, that’s life, and that’s also not really the real issue. It’s fear that stops you from acting here, fear that you’ll fall short or fail because of this lack.
But, actually, Leo, this will be the making of you! Doing the job, even with reduced resources, will prove to you how resilient, adaptable, and creatively shrewd you are. Survival even in testing times. This is how self esteem is built. So get on with it!

Virgo
August 24 to September 23
Tarot card for Virgo for this week: Eight of Swords
Meaning: The root cause of what ails you, Virgo, is that you’re projecting (or blaming) stuff onto other folk rather than taking responsibility for things yourself. You are assuming all kinds of things about how other people feel, think, and act. And it’s not all correct. So the foundations of truth aren’t there either.
Cut things back to you. Look in the mirror. Focus on what is in your sphere of control. Know your actions and motivations, take steps to improve them, and find yourself swiftly moving ahead. You are just getting in your own way right now by blaming others. Let them sabotage themselves. You focus on you.

Libra
September 24 to October 23
Tarot card for Libra for this week: Queen of Swords
Meaning: It’s true that many Libra folk don’t like doing things alone, because you love being in a cosy duo, or small circle, all in harmony and sharing the load. But this isn’t one of those situations. The Queen of Swords is independent and in charge. She wears the crown, and bears the brunt.
You are her this week and, actually, you will relish the power and control it affords you to design this week as you wish it to be! Don’t ask for permission. Don’t invite opinions. Don’t rely on others. Do it yourself, reward yourself, and celebrate yourself. You’ve got this!

Scorpio
October 24 to November 22
Tarot card for Scorpio for this week: The Magician
Meaning: You need a new idea! And this week will deliver it to you, gift-wrapped with a bow and a sparkle! The Magician asks you to trust your intuition and imagination and take your issue offline, away from others’ inputs, and into your own mental domain.
What would you do here if no one else had a say? What do you think is best? What wild, out there, uncharted, and novel pathway through this week would you like to take? Think it, plan it, do it. You are the magician this week!

Sagittarius
November 23 to December 21
Tarot card for Sagittarius for this week: Queen of Coins
Meaning: You have been letting a few things drift along, of their own accord, left to their own devices – notably and possibly in one of the realms of work, health, home, and money. The Queen of Coins steps in this week and draws your gaze to one of these areas, a place where things are not going as hoped, and you need to jump in and make some corrections and changes.
Do an audit. Identify what’s causing the block/delay/confusion/lack of results. Then research how to overcome it, use a friendly face as a sounding board for new ideas, and then tackle this head on. You can resolve it all in one week!

Capricorn
December 22 to January 21
Tarot card for Capricorn for this week: Seven of Wands
Meaning: The root cause of what’s bothering you at the moment is that you feel you’ve been drawn into some kind of competition or rivalry that you didn’t actually sign up for. Someone is perhaps using you as a target or benchmark (it’s a compliment really), but you don’t like the energy or tension it creates.
Cap, if you can’t not join them… then beat them! The Seven of Wands asks you to compete, even if you didn’t sign up, and show them who they’re tangling with! You can outsmart and outwork anyone, I know this to be true, so go do your thing and put this to bed. You might even sneakily enjoy it.

Aquarius
January 22 to February 19
Tarot card for Aquarius for this week: King of Wands
Meaning: All Aquarians need adventure, freedom, the open road, a blank sheet of paper, and space to explore and experiment. The King of Wands reveals this has been what you’ve felt has been lacking recently and you’re ready, this very week, to get back to your ‘Indiana Jones era’.
Go for it! Travel, socialise, freestyle, get out and go with the flow, ask for ideas, say yes to new invites, follow the unseen forces, signs, and omens. You will feel yourself spiritually plug back into your life and energy source. Power up!

Pisces
February 20 to March 20
Tarot card for Pisces for this week: Six of Wands
Meaning: I have good news! Whatever has been an issue recently is going to be magically and marvellously resolved this week by pure good fortune and luck! Lady Fortune has been watching your struggles and efforts and good, kind deeds and has a truck load of good karma to dump on your realm.
Be alert and ready to receive it! Say thank you and do something nice for someone else as a tribute to your good fortune, and more will come along! You’re entering a potential six-week phase of happy happenings and things going your way, Pisces, so make the absolute most of it!
