Tarotscopes - Week of August 25th
It’s time for your weekly tarotscopes! This week I’m reading with the Tarotbot by Michael Murdock. I think this is such a fun deck, and it also comes with an accompanying set of archetype cards (which I just had to use for the energy reading this week for the newsletter!).
As always, check your Sun, Moon, and Rising signs to see what resonates most with where you are right now. There’s no shame in not knowing what yours are! But if you are curious, you can find out at AstroCafe.
🍵 Join me for Tea & Tarot Tuesday live on Zoom this week! It’s a free, cozy space to pull cards, connect, and dive into tarot (and life) together. I’ll be popping on at 7pm eastern (the link to join is here).
🌙 I’ll be back at Mellow Yellow Sips in Crystal Beach this Friday at 7pm for one last hurrah before Labour Day! Come grab a drink and enjoy a free reading while you’re there soaking up the good vibes!
☀️ I also have daytime availability on Monday, Sept 1st (and through the long weekend of course) if you’ve been wanting to book a tarot session, coaching, or past life regression.
Alrighty, now it’s time to jump in and see what the cards have to say for your week ahead 👇

♈︎ - Aries
Knight of Wands: This week lights a fire from within, encouraging you to be bold, adventurous, and ready to chase what excites you most. Your natural charisma and enthusiasm are powerful tools; people want to follow your lead when you’re lit up from within, so utilize that to your benefit. However, be cautious: without direction, all that fire risks burning out before it gets you anywhere meaningful. Take the time to focus your energy, sketch a loose plan of action, and aim yourself toward something that matters rather than scattering your sparks everywhere. Lean into your ambitions, while keeping your eyes on the bigger picture.
Challenge: Pick one action you’ve been putting off and go for it. Commit to seeing it through instead of jumping to the next shiny thing half way through.
♉︎ - Taurus
Queen of Wands: Embody your confidence, and personal power this week. You don’t need to ask for permission, nor do you need to wait for approval. Follow your passions, chase your dreams, and be unapologetically you. Creating, expressing, and connecting are valuable simply because they make you feel alive. Stand in your own glow, and allow others to be warmed by your fire – especially knowing that you have nothing to prove. You naturally when you’re being authentically yourself. So let yourself shine, flirt with your creativity, and embrace the fun in doing things simply for the love of it.
Challenge: Say yes to something social or creative just because you want to, not because you feel obligated. Notice how freeing that feels.
♊︎ - Gemini
Ace of Wands: The spark is waiting to be ignited, and now is the time. You’re not short of ideas, and you already have a thousand different things that you might like to explore. You’re getting that restless itch to start something new (yet again). But the ideas? They’re no longer enough, so choose one. Stop circling the possibilities and finally step into action. Say yes, take the opportunity, and run with it! Chase what excites you, because when yo follow the threads of your enthusiasm, the momentum will build once you start moving.
Challenge: Pick one idea that excites you most and take a tangible step forward this week no matter how small.
♋︎ - Cancer
King of Cups: When emotions and pressure start swirling around you this week, don’t give into the overwhelm. Instead, embody your inner King of Cups: calm, cool, and collected. Be the one who listens amidst the chaos, offer support, and model compassion without getting swept up in the drama. Tap into your experience and see it for its wisdom. This is your moment to embody emotional maturity: to lead with the heart while staying grounded in your approach. Maintain healthy boundaries; you can be kind and compassionate with out taking on everyone else’s emotions and problems as your own.
Challenge: When tension rises, take a deep breath before reacting. Choose to respond from calm, not from instinct.
♌︎ - Leo
The Hierophant: Think about how tradition, structure, and external guidance show up in your life. While you’re often eager to lead and forge your own path, it’s important to recognize when the wisdom you seek has already been mapped out by those who came before you. You don’t have to suppress your individuality, but it is worthwhile to recognize that those established paths can offer stability and direction while you find your footing. Play by the rules for now, and learn the foundations before you bend or break them. Lean into rituals, practices, or teachings that remind you of your place within something bigger.
Challenge: Revisit a tradition, ritual, routine, or practice you’ve neglected, and notice what wisdom it still has to offer.
♍︎ - Virgo
The Hanged Man: Pause, slow down, and stop pushing so hard for progress or forward movement. It can be uncomfortable to hang in limbo, but when you do, you’ll find a fresh perspective on the path you’re meant to follow. Instead of rushing to fix or control, give yourself permission to sit with what is, even if it feels unresolved. Sometimes taking a step back is actually the most productive thing you can do, because it clears the space for clarity to arrive. Surrender in trust, knowing you’ll find a way forward when the timing is right. Let go of the need for immediate answers and see where the cards fall.
Challenge: Take one situation you’ve been trying to control and give yourself permission to step back to see how your perspective changes.
♎︎ - Libra
Five of Coins: You may find feelings of lack or scarcity bubbling to the surface this week, making it extra important to bring awareness to the forefront. Looking only at what you don’t have can keep you blind to the resources and support that are actually available. Focus on what truly matters, and be intentional with how you spend your resources to help ease that sense of overwhelm. Remember that self-worth isn’t measured by material gain alone; community, compassion, and gratitude count as wealth, too. If you’ve been feeling left out in the cold, reach out; others can’t help if they don’t know what you need.
Challenge: Make a gratitude list of five resources or supports you already have, and reach out to at least one person or opportunity for help if you need it.
♏︎ - Scorpio
Two of Coins: It may feel like you’re juggling a lot at the moment. And while you have the stamina and flexibility to do it, it’s time to take a moment to re-prioritize where your resources are going. Are you spreading yourself too thin, or are there areas where you could delegate, simplify, or let go? Life’s waves don’t have to drown you. Approach challenges with a sense of humour and adaptability, and you’ll find you can navigate them with more ease. A healthy balance is something we always have to reassess; it’s about finding that right rhythm. Give yourself credit for your agility, but also know when enough is enough.
Challenge: Review your commitments this week and drop or reschedule at least one thing that doesn’t absolutely need your attention.
♐︎ - Sagittarius
Temperance: Take time this week to slow down and integrate. Wholeness comes from weaving together all parts of yourself, even the messy, imperfect bits you’d rather ignore. Balance, moderation, and mindfulness are your allies. Instead of leaping from one extreme to another (your natural Sag tendency), allow yourself to exist in the middle spaces, where patience and gentleness bring healing. Find peace within chaos by seeking out out moments of stillness and quiet that restore your energy. Integration is a process, not a quick fix, and you’ll find a deeper strength when you let things come together naturally.
Challenge: Schedule three intentional moments of calm this week. Meditate, go on a mindful walk, or simply enjoy sitting in silence. Protect that time as sacred.
♑︎ - Capricorn
Nine of Swords: You may find yourself stuck in loops of worry, regret, or “what-ifs” this week – that mind just won’t stop spinning. While you can’t control every thought that pops into your head, you can choose which ones to give power and energy to. Name your fears and anxieties by writing them down or voicing them aloud to help loosen their grip. Most of the time, what lives in the dark corners of the mind feels bigger than it actually is; shining a light on it shrinks it back to size. Don’t let overthinking rob you of rest and clarity. You’re capable of breaking this cycle, but it takes conscious practice.
Challenge: When you feel stuck in anxious thoughts, write them out uncensored. Cross out the ones you can’t control and focus only on the next step you can take.
♒︎ - Aquarius
The World: There’s a natural end coming this week, whether that’s a project, a cycle, or even a version of yourself. Set aside time to pause, and recognize how far you’ve come. Relish in and celebrate your achievements before you rush into the next thing. Give yourself time to feel the wholeness that comes with completion. While endings can be bittersweet, they can also hold immense freedom; space is being cleared for your next chapter to unfold. Remember that we’re all part of something bigger, and as such your growth and achievements ripple outward. Honour your individual journey and your place within the larger web of life.
Challenge: Reflect on a recent accomplishment and celebrate it, big or small, before immediately moving on to what’s next.
♓︎ - Pisces
Seven of Swords: Sharpen your awareness this week. You may find that you don’t have quite all the information you need, or sense that something just isn’t adding up. And while this isn’t a warning to become paranoid, it is the encouragement to ask questions, and keep your wits about you. Trust your instincts, if something feels off, don’t ignore it. Looking out for yourself isn’t selfish, because if you don’t, who will? Being strategic, resourceful, and careful with your energy ensures that you’re not left vulnerable. The lesson here is that honesty and clarity matter: both with others and with yourself.
Challenge: In one area of your life this week, ask direct questions instead of leaning into assumptions. See what truths surface.
