Here’s what the ancient Tarot cards have to say about your Sun sign for this week:
Aries (Mar 21 – Apr 19)
A pattern of behavior of events repeats itself and you may find yourself asking why. Lessons are repeated until we learn and if you haven’t figured out what you’re doing to attract the same cycle again and again, it may be time to seek advice. Sudden developments at the workplace may leave you wondering if it’s time to quit or hold on till things calm down. Don’t fear change, embrace it and take action to find happiness. A new romance or infatuation may be round the corner and could take you by surprise. Try to control your irritation with your loved ones. They are dealing with enough already.
Taurus (Apr 20- May 20)
Your mind is sharp and alert and no error escapes your watchful eye. Negotiations, legal matters and anything related to finances go smoothly and you find yourself leaving others in awe. A great week to do research or analyse complex problems, the cards assure you that you will find the answers you seek. Just be mindful of those around you. In your quest to get things done, you may ruffle a few feathers or make a new rival. Home and family matters run smoothly as long as everyone listens to you. Stay open-minded to other opinions. And steer clear of too much food and drink if you want to maintain your good health.
Gemini (May 21- June 20)
A period of watchful waiting. Things are in the process of forming and rushing things now will only lead to complications. Being patient is key in the days ahead. You’ve done all you could and now it’s time to wait for the answers to emerge. A third party may cause misunderstandings in personal relationships. Don’t listen to gossip and don’t add to it. Health matters remain manageable. And your finances are getting sorted out slowly. In matters of the heart, someone’s actions will tell you everything you need to know about their true character.
Cancer (June 21 – July 22)
If you’re beginning to feel bored by your daily routine and the same old faces, how about bringing in some change? Relinquish control, change priorities and take a step back to reassess the situation before you move forward. A good week to detox from bad influences in your life or a bad habit that’s holding you back. Personal relationships that have begun to hurt you need to be forgiven and released for one final time. The past no longer exists and history will not repeat itself. Time to let go and explore new friendships or activities that pique your curiosity. Positive changes begin when you want them to.
Leo (July 23- Aug 22)
All your affairs are managed efficiently and the more you assert your authority, the more things move in a positive direction. Time to show your leadership skills without being too stubborn of course. Long-term plans are set. Finances are in control. And greater gains are in store for you in the months ahead as long as you stay honest and stick to the rules. Relationships could be strained if you’re not sensitive. Or someone may find you a little too controlling for their liking. Heart-to-heart discussions with a loved one bring peace. Travel plans could be delayed a little but you’re still getting that change of air your soul is craving.
Virgo (Aug 23- Sept 22)
Stick to the tried and tested for now. The Universe suggests you follow the rule book and things should work out fine. Plans may be finalised for real estate, investments and business expansion. You may meet an influential man who has the power to change things for the better. Just don’t get so lost in work and money that you forget to enjoy yourself, or the company of those who love you. Someone could do with your practical, no-nonsense advice. Or you may lend a helping hand to a friend who’s struggling in their career. The more you give others selflessly, the more you will get. An online relationship could result in a meeting in person.
Libra (Sept 23- Oct 22)
Time to take stock. Pause and look back at your achievements and your goals. Re-evaluate your life and let go of relationships and situations that no longer help your growth. Rethink your plans and prioritise your life accordingly. A good time to ask yourself how much satisfaction are you getting out of your education, career and relationships and make the necessary changes required to improve things. Singles may find a friend disclosing feelings for you, and married couples may renew bonds of commitment and love. Health matters show steady progress.
Scorpio (Oct 23- Nov 21)
Nostalgia reigns supreme. Don’t be surprised if you find yourself reminiscing about an old flame or suddenly bumping into a familiar face again. Workwise, an old colleague or an acquaintance may propose an enticing idea. Or you may get a call from your old office. And personally, expect either a family reunion or a letter or phone call from a family member you haven’t met in years. Single Scorpios may have a last fling with an ex flame and those married may be wishing for their old single days again or missing an old love. Watch your tendency to go overboard with expenses.
Sagittarius (Nov 22- Dec 21)
Too much of a good thing is not a good thing! The card of balance appears reminding you not to go overboard with excess – be it in terms of work, food, drink, anything. Establish boundaries with those who take you for granted, and decide for yourself just how much is worth giving and how much is worth keeping. Remember, balance is your key. A recurring health ailment may flare up again so watch your lifestyle. At the workplace you may find yourself swinging between days of little or no work and days when you’ll be putting in 18 hours nonstop. Strive for balance before it affects your health.
Capricorn (Dec 22-Jan 19)
Take a break and the cards guide you. If you’ve been working too hard and have been neglecting your or your family’s needs, take a step back and take it easy for a short while. Worry is simply a waste of energy and it’s best to go with the flow and live in the present moment. Expect delays, procrastinations and non-committal people in the work place. Put your daily concerns to one side and concentrate on calming your mind and restoring your energy levels. If you’re facing problems with a loved one, perhaps it would be wise to leave the subject of dispute for a while or take a break and focus on other things. Financially, things get better (but only after you let go!)
Aquarius (Jan 20- Feb 18)
The worst is over and things become a little better. Hope and healing are in your hands. The more you cling to the negative memories, the more power you give them over you. Positive changes begin when you believe they will happen. This a very productive phase for start-ups and students, your hard work will pay off in the long run. Burn off excess nervous energy with exercise. A love affair is about to begin if you allow it. It doesn’t guarantee forever but it may just be the adventure your soul needs. Money matters need better management. Think long term and answers will appear.
Pisces (Feb 19-Mar 20)
One moment you’re on top of the world in love with one and all, and in other moments you may wish to hide and not interact at all. Take a good hard look around you and do view things objectively. Not everything is as it seems, and before you rush off to plan or fantasize, assess your current options. Go beyond face value and promises and let actions speak for themselves. Don’t allow yourself to get lulled into a false sense of security. A good phase for students and jobseekers begins. The more you believe in yourself, the more you can achieve.
