Tarotscopes - Week of August 11th
Happy Monday – ready for the tarotscopes for the week?
This week’s guidance comes from The Cracked Amethyst Tarot by Jessica Bott. I was so excited to receive my copy in the mail last week, and it’s gorgeous, cozy deck to work with.
Remember to check your sun, moon, and rising signs to see which messages fit most with where you are. If you’re not sure what that means for you, check out the Natal Chart Calculator at AstroCafe.
For this week, you just might want to grab your journal, because each sign ends with a reflection prompt to help you dive deeper into the themes of your reading.
📅 Don’t miss Tea & Tarot Tuesday! I’ll be live on Instagram this Tuesday at 7pm EDT for free mini readings and tarot talk.
🍸I’ve been having a blast slinging cards at Mellow Yellow Sips in Crystal Beach! And I’ll be back there this coming Friday from 7pm. If you’re in the area, make sure you stop on by!
☀️ Daytime slots are open for sessions on August 19th and 20th—tarot readings, tarot mentorship, coaching, or past life regression.
And remember, if you ever have any questions about any services I offer, or can’t find a time that works for you reach out! I’m happy to answer anything I can to make help ensure that you get what you want out of our time together.
Okay, now let’s get into your tarotscopes and see how the energy of the week is showing up for each sign.

♈︎ - Aries
The Hermit: Sometimes it’s hard to hear yourself think through the chaos of daily life. This week, make an extra effort to disconnect from the noise around you, so you can tune into your own thoughts. Your inner voice has a way of speaking up when you give it the space to be heard. Trust that moments of introspection will help you figure out your next steps. And remember to be your own guide; it’s not that others don’t have great ideas, but it’s time to listen to you. Let yourself be nourished by your own company.
Journal Prompt: Where do I most need to create quiet in my life right now, and what do I hear when I do?
♉︎ - Taurus
Five of Arrows: There’s a bit of a tension and frustration to this week. You may find that you’re talking and no one is really hearing what you’re saying, or you may feel dragged into a competition for attention or time. While getting aggressive won’t help the situation, it is important to assert your place with diplomacy and confidence. Clearly express yourself, and set the tone for others to follow. Remember, your ideas are valuable, and you have every right to take up space. Don’t fade into the background when you know your input matters.
Journal Prompt: Where am I holding back my ideas or my voice, and how can I express myself more clearly and confidently?
♊︎ - Gemini
The Star: No matter where you are, know that this is the light at the end of the tunnel. Allow yourself to surrender to hope, inspiration, and a renewed sense of direction. Be healed through connecting to yourself, and to your trust in the universe. Show up, and allow yourself to be seen, and know that authenticity will draw the right people and opportunities your way. There’s beauty and magic in the world around you; look for it, and let it lift your spirit. This is also a wonderful time to offer encouragement to others, which in turn inspires you. Believe in the possibilities ahead.
Journal Prompt: What inspires me most right now, and how can I share that inspiration with others?
♋︎ - Cancer
Ace of Stones: Keep your eyes open for new opportunities. This is a great time to plant new seeds, and put things into motion. The door is open, but it’s up to you to go over the threshold, and make things happen. Know that you may not see immediate results, but every step you take now will shape what grows in the months ahead. This is a moment for intention-setting and deliberate action. Small, consistent effort will matter more than quick bursts of activity. Don’t underestimate the power of investing in yourself, your skills, or your resources. Ground your dreams with practical action.
Journal Prompt: What seed am I ready to plant, and what steps can I take to nurture its growth?
♌︎ - Leo
Ten of Arrows: You’ve been carrying a heavy load as of late, and while you’re strong and capable, it’s time to put some of it down. You don’t have to do everything alone, even if you’ve gotten used to it. Be mindful of your limits and to practice saying “no” when necessary. Overcommitment can dim your spark and cause you to burn out (which neither of us want), so focus on conserving your energy to take care of what truly matters. By shedding some the load, you create space for joy and creativity to return. Ask for help: it’s a sign of wisdom, not weakness.
Journal Prompt: What am I carrying that I can set down, delegate, or release?
♍︎ - Virgo
Knight of Stones: You may feel like progress is moving slowly, but trust that you are exactly where you need to be. This is a time for intentional, methodical action. Take things one step at a time, take care of the small details and mundane tasks. Don’t rush through just to get things done; do them right the first time, so you don’t have to backtrack later. Patience will serve you well. Focus on the process instead of obsessing over the outcome and you’ll be on track to build something sturdy and lasting. Keep going, even if the pace is steady rather than fast.
Journal Prompt: Where in my life will steady, consistent effort bring me closer to my goal?
♎︎ - Libra
Nine of Cups: Take some time this week to enjoy where you are, exactly as you are. Focus on the things in your life that are working – that make you feel happy and fulfilled. You don’t have to wait for everything to be perfect before you allow yourself to feel contentment. Take stock of what you’ve already achieved and savour it. Remember that gratitude opens the door for more abundance to flow into your life. This isn’t about settling; it’s about finding joy in the present while still holding space for future dreams. When you choose happiness now, it becomes easier to create more of it later.
Journal Prompt: What can I celebrate and enjoy about my life exactly as it is today?
♏︎ - Scorpio
Seven of Cups: You may be facing a lot of options, ideas, or possibilities this week. While all those potential choices may be exciting, there’s an underlying energy of overwhelm – especially if you’re not sure which way you want to go. Be mindful of illusions: sometimes the shiniest option isn’t the most fulfilling one. Trust your heart and intuition over appearances or what looks good on paper. You don’t have to choose everything; focus on what aligns with your deeper values. Clarity will come when you quiet the noise and tune in to your true desires.
Journal Prompt: What choice feels right in my body and heart, even if it doesn’t look like the most sensible option from the outside?
♐︎ - Sagittarius
Queen of Stones: Work hard, play hard. You’ve put a lot of effort into getting where you are, so take time this week to honour that. You’ve built stability through persistence and dedication, and it’s important to give yourself credit. You may feel called to care for both practical responsibilities and your personal well-being in equal measure. Smart decisions now will strengthen the foundation you’ve created. Remember, being grounded doesn’t mean being rigid. Treat yourself while still being wise with your resources. Don’t settle for less than you deserve; your value is clear and non-negotiable.
Journal Prompt: How can I honour both my responsibilities and my need for rest or enjoyment this week?
♑︎ - Capricorn
Nine of Arrows: It seems that there have been a few bumps in the road as of late, and you may find yourself running low on energy. However, you’re closer to your goal than you realize. Protect your energy, maintain your boundaries, and keep moving forward, even if progress feels slow. Every step you’ve taken has built resilience and strength; lean into that energy to push through. You’ve made it this far and have already overcome many challenges; know that you can do it again. Hold the vision, pace yourself, and trust that the finish line is within reach.
Journal Prompt:What boundaries or supports can I put in place to protect my energy while I finish what I’ve started?
♒︎ - Aquarius
Strength: Your power this week lies in quiet resilience and gentle courage. Don’t approach challenges with force, but instead utilize grace, compassion and understanding. This is about self-mastery, not control over others – so be sure to work on taming that inner lion when it bites and roars. When you treat yourself with the same kindness you offer others, you deepen your inner strength. Lead with empathy, and people will respond to your steadiness and sincerity. You are stronger than you think, and your heart is your greatest asset.
Journal Prompt: Where can I apply compassion and patience toward myself or others while still staying true to my values?
♓︎ - Pisces
Eight of Arrows: Things are heating up, momentum is building and change is coming. New opportunities may present themselves quickly, so keep your eyes open, your mind alert, and be ready to act. Remember, you don’t need to jump on every single thing; trust your instincts and choose based on what aligns with your goals, visions, and values. Ride the wave of motivation while maintaining a clear sense of direction. Change may be rapid, but it will work in your favour if you stay focused. Use this energy to propel yourself towards something that excites you.
Journal Prompt:What opportunities or ideas am I most excited to say “yes” to right now?
