Tarotscopes - Week of August 19th
I’m back, with another edition of Tarotscopes, and this time I’m featuring one of my favourite (and mosted used) decks, the White Numen Tarot by Liminal 11. I actually have assumed for months that I had already used it for a Tarotscope, so imagine my surprise when I realized I hadn’t!
This is gorgeous deck that is also available in my shop if you’re interested in getting your own copy (which of course I highly recommend).
As always, don’t forget to check your sun, moon, and rising signs to see what resonates most with where you are right now. Not sure what all your signs are? Visit the Natal Chart Calculator at Astro Café enter your birth date, time, and place for a full report!
If you’re going to be in or around Niagara this weekend, I’ll be reading tarot at my favourite local hangout, the Brazen Cafe on Friday, August 23rd from 5pm. And if you’re looking for something to do this weekend, stop by the Awareness Fair at the Promistery in St. Catharines.
Aries
Four of Swords: Give yourself a break this week; get out of your head and decompress. Know that sometimes, it’s okay not to be productive. There’s been a lot on your mind: rest now so you can live to fight another day. Nothing will come from overthinking or pushing yourself too hard. You’re not selfish or lazy for taking a much needed time out.
Your theme this week is rest and rejuvenation.
Taurus
Judgement: Looking back on where you’ve been isn’t always the most comfortable thing to do, but how can you know where to go if you don’t know where you’ve been? Take time this week to reflect: to evaluate, to recognize patterns you’re wanting to break, and to consider lessons you’ve learned. Doing so just might give you the awakening you need.
Your theme this week is self-evaluation.
Gemini
Three of Swords: You may find yourself amidst feelings of loss, disappointment or feelings of hardship. It’s easier to bury yourself in busy work or isolate yourself from the outside world, but know that this won’t be the best way to deal. Give yourself time and space to work through any uncomfortable thoughts and emotions. Ask for help or support when you need it.
Your theme this week is healing and resolution from loss or sadness.
Cancer
Three of Pentacles: You’ve been putting in hard work and effort to build a good foundation for yourself, and are starting to see the results of your efforts. You have acquired knowledge and skills that are worth bringing to the table, but so do others. Don’t be afraid to rely on the talents of those around you to help get things done.
Your theme this week is teamwork and cooperation.
Leo
The Hanged Man: Don’t rush into any big decisions this week. Instead, take a moment to pause. See your situation from a different perspective, and you just might find a better way through. Realize that sometimes to make the progress we desire, we have to take a step back before we can take a step forward.
Your theme this week is contemplation before action.
Virgo
Four of Cups: It may feel like things are stagnating this week, making it easy to disconnect. While the lack of movement might make you check out, don’t get stuck in limbo to the extent where you miss out on great opportunities that come your way. To get things flowing again, consider what makes you feel fulfilled.
You theme this week is working towards getting back into the flow.
Libra
Page of Cups: Let inspiration, creativity, and imagination flow this week! Tap into your emotions, let your intuition guide you, and be open to new ideas and experiences. Remember, the world is your oyster if you allow it to be. Entertain your daydreams (but perhaps not any delusions). And be ready for fresh perspectives to get you moving.
Your theme this week is imagination and open mindedness.
Scorpio
King of Wands: Hone your ambition and energy to get things done. You have the experience needed, so now is the time to take bold action towards your ideas and goals. Focus your intention, and don’t be afraid to use passion and charm to help you get where you want to go. You are in a position of power and leadership in your life: use it.
Your theme this week is leadership.
Sagittarius
Knight of Pentacles: While things might not be blazing forward this week, it’s great time to take care of all the minor details that need to get cleaned up. Cross what you can off your to-do list. Get those mundane tasks out of the way. It may feel like slow progress, but it’s helping you build a strong, stable foundation as you forge ahead.
Your theme this week is one thing, one step at a time.
Capricorn
The Sun: There is much happiness and success to find in life this week. Share your warmth and radiance with those around you; especially those that make you smile. Find fulfillment by doing what brings you joy. Take time out for more fun and play. Get outside, fill your lungs with fresh air, and enjoy simply being alive.
Your theme this week is seeking joy and laughter.
Aquarius
Temperance: Patience is necessary this week, especially when it feels like things aren’t moving along as quickly as you’d like. Instead of frustration, find moments of peace and calm. Take steady, careful steps over blazing ahead in a hurry. Excess is unnecessary, and will only further stress and anxiety. Practice being in the here and now.
Your theme this week is patience and moderation.
Pisces
Page of Swords: Your mind is moving a mile a minute, jumping from one thing to the next. This is great for new thoughts and ideas coming in, but be selective of which you choose to interact with. While it doesn’t hurt to play it safe, don’t be afraid to ask questions, and seek answers. Share your thoughts, and keep your mind open.
Your theme this week is curiosity and questions.
