Virgo:
The Chariot
AUG. 23 TO SEPT. 22
Don’t let anything get in your way, Virgo! You have your eye on the prize and you know exactly where you need to go to get what you want, so this is the season to be unapologetic with your time management. Don’t make excuses for little things that beg to distract you when you know they don’t really require your attention. You must prioritize the path to your dreams…it’s now or never!
Libra:
Two of Pentacles Reversed
SEPT. 23 TO OCT. 22
Create a new sense of balance, Libra. If you have been feeling overwhelmed by your obligations and overcommitted to too many responsibilities or invitations, then this is a fine time to scale back. Check in on your priorities and use what you find as your guide to rearrange your schedule to resemble something that feels more manageable. Moving forward, you don’t have to say yes to everything, especially at your own expense.
Scorpio:
Six of Cups Reversed
OCT. 23 TO NOV. 21
It’s not too late to make it right, Scorpio. When feelings about past situations and old relationships come back to haunt you, you can look at this moment as an opportunity to learn from where something went wrong. If you feel the need to apologize, don’t hold back from speaking up. Sometimes the passing of time provides the clarity needed to simply own our part in a situation where things went awry.
Sagittarius:
Five of Cups Reversed
NOV. 22 TO DEC. 21
Allow yourself to heal, Sagittarius. There is no need to continue to look backward or harp on regrets over how situations could have unfolded differently. Know that your story is continuing to be written and that the supposed mistakes of the past will make sense as time goes on. This is the way personal growth feels sometimes, so be kinder to yourself as you continue on your journey through this chapter.
Capricorn:
The Lovers Reversed
DEC. 22 TO JAN. 19
There’s no need to rush, Capricorn. A myriad of opportunities are coming your way, and this could be a rather exciting moment if you lean into the inspired energy rather than the overwhelm! Don’t get ahead of yourself by thinking about what could go wrong or if you aren’t making the right choice. Instead, take your time to feel out what makes sense to you. If it aligns with your heart, you’re making the right decision.
Aquarius:
The Fool Reversed
JAN. 20 TO FEB. 18
If it sounds too good to be true, then it probably is, Aquarius. As new opportunities come your way, it would be best to approach them with a cautious sense of curiosity before fully committing. The last thing you want is to get caught up in the potential of smoke and mirrors! Take your time and ask pointed questions because the more you explore, the more beneficial it will be for your decision making.
Pisces:
Four of Cups Reversed
FEB. 19 TO MARCH 20
Let go of regret, Pisces. It’s helpful to consider what we could do differently in the future, but if we stay solely focused on what we believe went wrong, we rob ourselves of the joy of what could go right in the present moment. It’s important to learn from our mistakes, but there’s no point in wallowing or punishing ourselves over our past choices. Forgive yourself and move forward with your focus on something new.
Aries:
Five of Swords Reversed
MARCH 21 TO APRIL 19
Consider the consequences, Aries. Stress may be at an all-time high because of so much happening at once, but try not to let the tizzy cloud your judgment. If you make a rash decision or an impulsive move now, it could have a rather undesirable outcome with long-lasting effects. Pace yourself, think logically, and create a carefully considered plan to carry you through this time. This too shall pass.
Taurus:
Nine of Cups Reversed
APRIL 20 TO MAY 20
Be careful what you wish for, Taurus. You might think you have your heart set on something, but when you actually get it, it might not be what you previously imagined. Or we get so caught up in the longing and yearning that the manifestation of this great dream is actually quite boring and unfulfilling. To mitigate this potential, keep the possibilities less narrowed down so something could actually surprise you.
Gemini:
Seven of Wands Reversed
MAY 21 TO JUNE 20
Let your belief system be your inner compass, Gemini. We all get into tricky situations where we feel unheard and misunderstood, but don’t let these setbacks in communication shake your confidence! Not everything has to be a battle and not everything has to be explained. And maybe you don’t have to be right. Let down your defenses a bit more because sometimes the best approach is to agree to disagree.
Cancer:
Six of Swords Reversed
JUNE 21 TO JULY 22
This is your reality check, Cancer. It’s time to face the music and deal with whatever situation you have been putting off for a little too long now. You know something doesn’t go away just because you pretend it isn’t there, right? And procrastinating only makes it feel far worse than it actually is. Make the first move to do what you must do so you can finally move on.
Leo:
Ten of Wands
JULY 23 TO AUG. 22
Is this really your burden to bear, Leo? It might feel like nothing can get done without your assistance, but is that really the case? It’s time to trust in the abilities of others by letting the people around you make their own mistakes and figure things out on their own. Imagine how freeing it will be when you release others’ responsibilities from your supposed obligations! You’re ready to let it all go.
