Weekend Tarotscopes for Saturday May 5th and Sunday May 6th 2012

This Saturday we are being hit with a BIG FAT emotional Scorpio Moon. It won't be full until about 6pm PST, though I'm sure you're already feeling the momentous build up happening right now. This moon also happens to be a Supermoon or Perigee moon, meaning that it will be 15-30% closer to us then usual, making it appear to be very LARGE.

Interestingly enough, Supermoon's are well known for their magickal attributes, as well as for wreaking havoc down on our world from time to time. So after this weekend report, I'll be giving you another special report for the Cinco De Mayo Supermoon. For now, let's look at more personal things to help you get through your most predictable weekend.

Our theme for this weekend is rebirth, as the card of Death takes precedent over our current stars. The reaper rides in two oversea your weekend, to make sure that you make it safely through the ending of a relationship, job or behavior pattern that is no longer necessary. He will continue to offer is scyth to you, to help clear your way as you take a relationship to the next level, gain that promotion or find new ways to motivate yourself towards success.

Thankfully, amidst all the chaos that Venus and Vesta are still raining down on you, it looks like Saturday is actually going to be a very balanced day. The Star has come down to shine us with her grace, and lend us her life giving gourds. This means that Saturday is a great day for just about anything you wanted to do. And if you didn't have anything particular in mind, the Star will inspire you today. Which will be nice, since I see sunny skies just about all day.

Sunday it looks like you'll be working hard, but the Nine of Wands says it won't be unpleasant if you don't over-concern yourself with your chore list for next week. If you can keep your head clear, you'll have a productive sunday. If you can't, the Nine of Wands suggests you watch your head!



CAPRICORN

 Your theme for this weekend Capricorn is EARTH-LOVE. Vesta in Taurus, the Heirophant (who is a Taurus) and the Taurus Sun of this month, are coming together to offer you a time to work on your self-discipline and/or to be rewarded for your self-discipline. This is very spiritually important for your Capricorn, especially since your sign is known for it's greatness in self and life mastery. This could be a big weekend for you in relationships, business, social circles and spirituality. The Heirophant whispers to me to remind you that it is best to stick with what "feels right", to stick with tradition or to not be too flamboyant over this weekend. If you can do this, you'll open yourself up to a beautiful next week.

Saturday you've found yourself feeling a bit bound to your home, more so then you would like to be on such an energetic day. Venus is definitely calling you to come out and play, but for some reason the Eight of Swords has you feeling like your surrounded by danger. Vesta isn't helping anything either, as she is fighting for you to hold onto what has worked or not worked in the past. It could be that you have evening Cinco De Mayo plans, but every year before they've all gone bunk. Or it might be that you're not sure about going out on that date, attending a party, starting that new exercise or getting closer a certain someone. Regardless of what you are worried about, the Eight of Swords reminds you that even if you can't "see" the way, you still know where to go and what the right thing to do is. If nothing else, take the day and sit back with the Heirophant, while you contemplate whether or not the person you are with is right for you, whether or not you want to stay with the company or if you need to make any changes in your health regimen.

On Sunday the Hanged Man reverse comes to play. Curiously, you've found him in an interesting predicament. You see, when the Hanged Man is reversed, he's not really "hanging" anymore, is he? In fact, he's kind of just stuck there in a strange non-suffering state. And while you might think it's better that way, without the suffering of hanging, there is also no insight gained, no well of knowledge visited and no spiritual ascension. The only thing left to do at that point, is to untie the rope that keeps him from floating away and let go. When the Reversed Hanged Man appears in your scopes, it usually suggests that it is time to get a hold of yourself if you've been over-indulging, letting your health get out of hand or you've been over focusing on a relationship problem. It's time to just let it go so that you can take care of more important life matters. The Hanged Man assures me that later on down the road you will gain the insight you've been looking for, but now is not the time, and there is no way you can force it to happen sooner. For now, just relax and learn to be comfortable when you reach a crossroad. There is no reason you have to make the choice now. The relationship, business or health matter can wait until the week starts.


AQUARIUS

It looks like a great weekend for playing, imagining and picking large pretty flowers! This is because the Six of Cups is presiding over your weekend Aquarius. The child in this card represents your Inner Child, who is tired of doing all that mundane adult stuff and is ready to come out and play with that Dwarf who represents the side of you that intuitively connects to the wonder and magick of the earth and human nature. So you'll probably be feeling pretty nostalgic about one thing or another - which is fine, but just don't forget to reconnect with those of us in this realm (at least occasionally).

On Saturday it looks like the Hermit has come to lead you toward a Venusian lair of love, and he suggests you should take the time to explore any past relationships that come into your thoughts today. It could be that a past lover has come calling or that you've been thinking about contacting an ex or "the one that got away". Make sure to seriously consider if this is the direction you want to take your life right now. Didn't you leave them for a reason? If it's not an issue with romance, you'll be battling on the business front, where an old partner, co-worker or friend might be coming back into your world and you'll want to really think on it before you agree to let them work with you again. It's definitely not a day for making any deals, signing any contracts or confirming any dates.

On Sunday you're feeling that Scorpio Moon and the emotional nature of the world is really killing your buzz. I can tell because you have this Reversed Judgement card in your Sunday scope, and it's telling me that you might act irrationally today, or that you might be allowing yourself to get into another negative thought pattern. The Guardian in the card reminds you that it does no good to jump to conclusions about anything, even if it seems like all the evidence points one way, it might be that you're not seeing the whole picture in your home life, relationship or business.


PISCES

It looks like you're feeling a bit impractical this weekend Pisces, and you're definitely going to be in that "where's my mommy" kind of mood. This is mostly do to the Vesta in Taurus, who is driving you to seek comfort and some pampering this weekend, though the emotional Scoprio Moon doesn't help anything. You would think your fishy sign would love all that extra water energy around, but it really just makes you even more emotional then you normally would be. On the upside, you'll also be feeling extra intuitive, artistic and loving.

On Saturday I can see that Venus is making you look deeply at what is making you feel trapped or bound to the Devil's wall. It looks like there is someone in your life who might not be that good for you right now, as they are really stifling your creative energy and passion. It could be that it's time to take a look at how you are communicating with this person, or it might be that you need to consider releasing yourself from any commitments now. The Devil Reversed often represents the times in our lives when we've formed the illusion that we're trapped by a commitment or obligation, when really, we've always had a choice and we've always had the power to change our situation. Now is the time for you to open your eyes and really SEE Pisces. Is it really your relationship that's holding you back, or is it the way you are LOOKING at the relationship? Is your job really THAT horrible? Or is it just that you've grown bored with what you do... Think about it Pisces, in the world of the Devil card, time is suspended - so take as long as you need. When you're ready, he will gladly offer you his torch to find your way into the daylight.

On Sunday you've got two aspects to deal with, that are being lead by the energy of Saturn from that Devil card. The Reversed Two of Wands will preside over most of your day, and he says that now is the time to make a choice. Though he chuckles a little at your horrified look, because he knows that regardless of the choice you are about to make, the outcome will be good. You have a strong intuition now with the moon so close and your emotional energy so charged up. You can look forward to a sweet afternoon surprise in love, business or travel. Following that you have the Reversed Judgement card, which heads you not to jump to any conclusions. Yes, they may have declared their love in a sweet sonnet to you, but that doesn't mean they are ready to take the ultimate step with you (yet), give them a chance to catch up to you. If you're looking for love and you weren't really all that impressed with the options Venus has sent you so far this weekend, be patient, you have options and you shouldn't be in any rush.


ARIES

I want you to know that although this last week was probably not on your list of favorite weeks of 2012, there was a purpose to it. Aside from hardening your mettle, it was also about helping you learn several important life lessons that you will help you follow your path to success this year. This weekend's theme is the Three of Swords and it's going to be about recognizing that the hard, painful or stressful parts of life are just as necessary as the happy, pleasurable and passionate parts. This might seem like a sad prediction, as will some of the upcoming weekend events, but in order for you to get something out of the energy coming to you from the watery Scorpio Moon, you'll need to remind yourself that things are rarely as bad as they seem. The strongest rays of light are found in the darkest of caves.

Interestingly enough, it looks like you're going to get a return on your investments this Saturday. And while this will be mostly good, the Seven of Pentacles Reversed reminds you that if you've been putting more negativity into your world then positivity, then that's what you'll be getting back. For the most part though, it looks like it's going to be a great day for receiving spiritual insight, life experiences and financial education.

Sunday looks like one of those days you just don't feel motivated to do much of anything. On any other weekend I'd tell you to go relax, but the water from the Scorpio Moon is threatening to rise up and flood your Tower (reversed), which doesn't leave you with a lot of time for contemplating your decisions. Whether it's time to end that relationship, get out of that job or end those negative thinking patterns, now is the time to jump or be pushed.


TAURUS

Happy Birthday to those of you celebrating this weekend. It must be interesting having a birthday on Cinco De Mayo weekend. It's probably pretty hectic to, and even if you don't have a birthday this weekend, I can tell that this Scorpio Moon has got you feeling the anxieties of the world around you. And I don't mean to read you like a card, but the Nine of Swords clearly shows me all your thoughts are up on the wall. This weekends theme is going to be about making a decision to toss those swords away or to clean, sharpen and polish them.


Saturday it looks like you're going to find the world is reacting a little slow for your tastes. You're ready to jump out there and cruise the countryside with the Knight of Wands, but he's in reverse, meaning that it's just one of those days when you hit all the red lights, miss that important phone call or find yourself stuck in traffic. You've also got the Tower Reversed presiding over your scope from Saturday evening through Sunday morning, which means that you're going to have to make some changes in your life. Some of the changes couldn't be physical, but most of them will be in the form of the thoughts traveling through your mind. Do you really want to continue panicking about all the things going on in your life right now, or do you want try on a new perspective and start to see the good that is already all around you?

I'd imagine you want the latter, and that you'll gain the proper view, which will open up the opportunity for you to accept that energy that Venus is sending down to you, whom are a child of her planet, and she is giving you the coveted Two of Cups! This means that Sunday will be a FANTASTIC day for love, business and emotional experiences. Soak it up, you deserve it!


GEMINI

Gemini, your theme for this weekend is about LETTING GO. Letting go of your anxiety about the house, letting going of your fears that he or she isn't being loyal to you, letting go of any negative anticipations that you've been allowing to encircle your life. Let them all fall down and you'll find that the power in the Scorpio Moon is freeing you from the restraints of the Eight of Swords that has been holding you back.

And, *Great News*, once you're done dwelling on the past, you're in for quite a weekend! Saturday you're charmed life is going to bring you a chance dance with the Magician himself. He will be making it happen all Saturday long, which means you'll be radiating pure magick when the moon is full around 6pm. This means you'll be able to manifest just about anything your heart desires, be it a romantic Cinco De Mayo dinner with your lover, a big windfall for your wallet or a playful and exciting night on the town. Just be careful, as all that power can sometimes go to your head.

Keep a leash on your ego and you should be able to carry all that positive and powerful energy in your Sunday when the Two of Cups comes to play with your stars. There's no irony in the fact that the Two of Cups IS the card of Gemini, and it's also the card of True Love, which means your love sector is in the super hot zone this Sunday. And as long as you don't allow yourself to fall back into the rut of negative thinking patterns, you should be able to enjoy this energy all the way into next week. Way to go Gemini!


CANCER

Your feeling ultra seductive, playful and romantic this weekend Cancer, which is good news for anyone in who comes within your orbit. The Emperor is reversed, which is your theme, and as bad as we usually interpret 'reversed tarot cards', in this instance, it's actually quite positive. It signifies that you will be feelings some relief from your kingly (or queenly) duties this weekend. The only downside to the reversed emperor, is that while you may have lost some of that weight on your shoulders, you've also lost your crown, which means you'll be head over heals for most of the weekend. Whether or not that turns out to be a good thing, is up to you.

This Saturday leads your world with a Scorpio Moon, bringing you plenty of watery emotional energy to swim and feast in. To compliment this, you have the King of Wands watching over your home, health and romance sectors. He is wise and will be lending you some of his insight to help you combat the energies of the reversed Emperor. The King wants you to be able to enjoy as much of this weekend as he can, so he's gearing up to bring you a huge burst of positive energy at work, in love and with your spiritual endeavors. You will feel most powerful by the time the moon is full around 6pm, which works out perfectly, since that's about the time work ends. The king does all this freely as a gift to you, but he does leave a cautious warning: Don't push yourself to hard. We all know that you have a habit of overworking yourself sometimes Cancer, and now is the time to stop and enjoy the positive stars that you've earned. So say "No thanks" to overtime, let the house stay a little messy or go head and order that extra large steak on the menu - you deserve it.

Sunday looks to be even better as the powerful Empress comes to play. She is drawing on the energy being released from the Scorpio Moon that came on Saturday afternoon, and she's using that energy to make you into a magnet for abundance. This will have you glowing radiantly as Venus shines her rays of love down on you. This bodes well whether you are working or playing today, and hey, why not do both? Just make sure to take some time for yourself if you start feeling overwhelmed by the amount of people who've found themselves attracted to your wisdom, physique and charm. Even celebrities need a break sometimes!


LEO

You're just not feeling in balance this weekend Leo, and it's because your Fiery nature is just smothered by the Watery energy of this Scorpio Moon. The good news is that by Sunday evening, the moon will be changing into Sagittarius - also a Fire Sign - which will bring you back into your element. Until them, your theme lies with the Three of Wands Reversed, which tells you to rest and take it easy this weekend.

This is good advice too, since the King of Wands Reversed is going to be presiding over your Saturday as the Moon in Scorpio reaches it's full power by early Saturday evening. This means that there could be a man or woman in your life who is extra moody right now, or that you are particularly moody right now, and it surrounds an emotional issue. Try to bit your tongue and refrain from saying anything to hurtful Leo, as now is the worst time to do so.

On Sunday you've got the Lovers Reversed, which means Venus in Gemini is taking a special interest in your Sunday. Throughout most of the day she will be putting your mind to the test and asking you to analyze any relationships you're currently in - be they love, career or friendship. By the even, you'll be back in your Fire element and know just what you want to do, just in time for the new week to start.


VIRGO

The World has slowed down for you this weekend Virgo, and it suggests that you slow down to. This weekend looks to be rather enjoyable for you, so your keyphrase for this weekend is - "relax and go with the flow".

The Scorpio Moon has balanced you out pretty well on Saturday as the Sun card rides in on her huge pony, to bring you positive energy in all areas of your life. All this great energy has filled up your emotional cup and you'll be feeling freer today then you've felt in a long time. This is good news, and the energy will probably continue through to next week. The only hitch in all this, is that Vesta in Taurus has taken it rather harshly that you - a star born under her own influence - have allowed yourself to be so enchanted by Venus's energy. She has come down into your evening as the Reversed Queen of Pentacles and is reminding you not to let your head float up into the sky. It's fine to enjoy all this positive energy, but there are still things down here on earth that require your attention.

The Queen could also represent an actual person, or an aspect of yourself. If she is a person, she will be a woman with light brown hair, who comes to you to speak of money troubles. If she is an aspect of yourself, it is just your logical inner voice making sure you don't forget about the logical side of yourself, which can happen sometimes when you're having a lot of fun. Thankfully, she's got a strong influence with you, and she'll be making sure that you see a good financial return, a further commitment in a relationship or just some generally good news as the Sunday brings in the new Sagittarian Moon.


SCORPIO

Oh Scorpio! What a weekend you have ahead. It's a Full Supermoon IN YOUR SIGN! Even before I draw the cards I can tell it's gonna be one hell of a weekend for you. One the cards are out, I can see that your theme for this weekend is the Nine of Wands, and he tells me that you have a big opportunity to enjoy this weekend, but you'll only be able to take advantage of the opportunity if you stop letting your anxieties get the better of you. You've been working hard all week, now stop and just relax!


Saturday you'll be feeling like the Emperor as you gather up the powerful energy of the Scorpio Supermoon. You'll have everything you could want or need as the day proceeds - power, money, authority, love, devotion. Everyone is on your side, working for you or trying to please you in some way, and you're really grooving on this power (who wouldn't be?)

The only problem is, this sort of power has a way of going to one's head, and it looks like you've somehow gotten yourself into a rock and hard place by Sunday. It's not really a bad thing, but this is were that Nine of Wands really needs you to pay attention to his advice. The choices that lie in front of you may seem huge, unreasonable or hard to choose from, but really, they are nothing when you think about all the choices you've already made in your life and all the decisions yet to come. Allow yourself to let go of your anxiety and turn this Two of Swords reversed back into her upright position. Only then can you hear and head the messages being sent to you from the new Moon in Sagittarius.


LIBRA

You're obviously in a playful mood this weekend Libra, I can tell from this Page of Wands reversed in your main theme for the next two days. He shows me that the Scorpio Moon has really gotten you in touch with your emotional side, and you're digging that energy. Just make sure that you don't allow yourself to be too emotional or to give to much weight to the things that happen right now. It's not a good time for defining the difference between fantasies and reality right now.

Saturday as the Supermoon in Scorpio begins to build up, you're going to be feeling rather Kingly (or queenly) as the King of Cups comes to sit on your day. He's bringing you lots of playful, romantic and sentimental energy to enjoy most of the day, and he says that you should be prepared to be feeling extra frisky around 6pm when the moon is at it's fullest. And hey look at that! If you don't allow yourself to be distracted, it looks like the Ace of Pentacles is going to come along and bring you some of that fantastic Vesta in Taurus energy. This means you could see a financial windfall, find some money, earn some extra income or even win the lotto.

As Sunday brings down your Supermoon high a bit, you'll be feeling a bit foolish as the Fool comes to brighten your day. He tells me that it's a good day for you to start new projects, declare your devoted love, or to go sky-diving, if that's your thing.


SAGITTARIUS

You're clearly not enjoying all the water energy swirling around you right now Sagittarius, and I do understand. You're a Fire Sign, and fire and water just don't mix well. Either the fire evaporates all the water into steam, or the water extinguishes the fire. One way or another though, you'll make it through this weekend, and into a fresh week in a Sagittarian Moon - how perfect! You're theme for this weekend is going to be about making wiser decisions. This emotional Supermoon hasn't got you thinking straight, and so you'll have to be extra disciplined if you don't want to find yourself making promises you can't keep or agreeing to do something you really don't want to do.

Saturday has you feeling rather nostalgic Sagi, and you're in the mood to play. Hold onto the energy as long as you can Sagittarius, because as the moon comes to it's fullest point on Saturday evening, you're going to find it harder to fight off your anxiety, frustration, combativeness or impatience.

That abrasive energy is going to stick around for a while on Sunday and comes to you in the form of the Queen of Wands reversed. She tells me that you have somehow upset a woman in your life, or that a woman has upset you. Either way, it's a danger game to mess with the Queen out of her element, as she is already on high alert. Try to make amends, and in the mean time, beware of sharp or pointy objects around you. Thankfully, when the moon goes into Sagittarius by Sunday evening, you'll be feeling much more assure of yourself and it looks like you've worked things out with everyone. The Three of Pentacles says that now it's time to party!

Tarotscopes for Monday April 30 - Friday May 4th, 2012

Vesta in Taurus - Venus in Gemini

This weeks theme is Emotion, which is most symbolically represented by the suit of cups. To be more specific, it is the Two of Cups card that holds the highest presence over our week, and as the lovers gaze into each others cups, so to will you gaze into the soul of another this week. This current theme is part of a skyward war going on between Vesta the Lady of Seduction and Venus the Lady of Love, that will go on until Vesta enters Gemini and compliments Venus-Gemini-Direct. Until then, the two Goddesses in the sky are going into a Valkyrie like battle of wits as they aim to gain the most love from those of us here on earth. 

The cards are showing me that, Monday morning is going to kick off an diverse ray of energy, as each Queen claims reign over her domain, and tries to dominate the other as well. Vesta is leaving her fiery stint in Aries and is coming into her Earth Goddess zone in Taurus. This means that all signs (especially Taurians) are going to get a burst of urges that make you want to push forward, make the commitment, stay in the comfort zone, be seductive or fight to keep something from changing. Because of these astral elements, it's a great week to spend in the garden, to work on your business goals or to romance someone special.

The Taurian energy infusing Vesta brings a lust for comfort, materialism and seductive romance, which clashes with Venus's need to create, discover, take risks, seed new ideas, open up communication and reach into the great unknown. Venus in Gemini is all about the new and bold, while Vesta in Taurus is about more of what's known or what is hidden just beneath the surface. What makes things even more interesting, is that the history of Venus in Gemini... If you weren't aware... Some of the events that have passed during or shortly after a Venusian transit in Gemini:

• Magellan set sail to prove the earth was not flat during transit set sale during the transit of 1519-1526 
• The transits between June 1761 and June 1769 brought us the "world brain" as astronomers around the world began globally communicating for the first time, resulting in the discovery of Uranus in 1781. 
• Shortly after the Transit of 1874 was when Edison brought us the first Telephone.
• In the 2004 transit, several things happened - The European Union expanded to it's largest size ever (inducting 10 more countries into it's boundaries), SpaceShipOne became the first privately funded space plane to enter orbit and NASA sent their Mercurian MESSENGER into the orbit of Mercury during the same venusian transit.

So if you haven't noticed already, this week will kick of a transit of FIRSTS, and on top of it all, we are going into a moon under Virgo, the sign of the Virgin, which ironically links right up to Vesta (have you ever heard of the "vestal virgins"?) and I find it less than coincidental that the first card of the week for us is the Magician - who happens to be the child of Virgo (Vesta) and Gemini (Mercury). The Magician brings us a powerful mixture of Air and Earth as he opens us up to the possibilities in our world and encourages us towards our goals. Monday and Tuesday are great days to manifest your dreams, desires and goals in any area. The Magician is multifaceted in that he applies himself as a master of all worlds - business, love, health, family and spirituality. 


This is all well and good up until Wednesday when the moon changes into Libra, handing Venus the spirit stick, which she uses to hurl a wind storm at Vesta, and inadvertently this throws us a curve ball with the Reversed Seven of Cups. This card is often mislead when reversed, because it actually has a more positive meaning in reverse than it does in upright. The reversed Seven of Cups is a sign that although you've been confused about how to move forward, you are now beginning to see the path forward, so on Wednesday and Thursday - make the choice, cement your plans or make the ultimate commitment.

Thursday evening on into Friday brings us the Two of Pentacles and the reversed Eight of Swords, which brings more of that powerful earth-air-vesta-venus-gemini-taurus combo. Because there is so much going on during the end of the week, I suggest you actually try to lay low as much as you can. Not because you haven't got the power or know-how to move forward, but because it's going to be one of those days where you feel totally stuck trying to juggle everything going on in your life. If you can resist the urges, this too shall pass.


CAPRICORN
 
You're playing the part of the Emperor Reversed today Capricorn. That means that although there seems to be plenty of opportunities available around you, it isn't likely that you're going to notice them do to that bad mood the Leo moon left you with. Thankfully, the Three of Pentacles enters your Monday chart with Vesta in Taurus and the Moon in Virgo. That's like Triple Earth Energy for you (Capricorn-Taurus-Virgo), and in one way or another, you're really going to feel it. With the current Venus-Vesta interlude happening above, I'd reckon you're going to be feeling neglected, smothered, lustful, romantic, seductive, giving and a bit selfish. I know you're not used to this many emotional states coming at you all at once, even if you have an Air or Fire Moon sign, and it's the Gemini that Venus is in, that is really making things so complicated. To make matters worse, it looks like the Reversed Queen of Swords is slicing through your Tuesday to get to the heart of a matter of the heart, the wallet or the home needs. She could be a real person, whom you respect, or it could be a part of yourself. Remember that this Queen has two sides, one of which you can't always see. It is the other side that is often more important than the side she shows you, so try not to take it personally if she's being a bit pushy or ornery.


Wednesday and Thursday will be two more mixed days. The Three of Wands is upright, signifying that you've finally pinned down the Venus in Gemini for a moment and are able to see your choices more clearly. And being the practical earth-cappy that you are, you chose to focus more on work, which is good in a financial-spiritual sense, but it this Nine of Wands reversed tells me it's just not what you wanted. You'd prefer to be dancing seductively as a Vestal Virgin or leading the battle across the sky as a Venutian Valkyrie, though things are just not in place for it now, and you made a wise decision to focus on the more mundane takes during the middle of the week as the moon leads herself into Libra. Friday we're going to be entering a new moon in Scorpio, which will really open up your inner senses. You'll be feeling extra intuitive and contemplative as the day goes on, which is fine, but don't let yourself get carried away. The Ten of Cups reversed reminds us that our lives are often better when we don't dwell on the imperfections or lack around us. If you can remind yourself that you have a lot, and that there are opportunities all around you, you can take advantage of the Eight of Pentacles that highlights plenty of opportunities to utilize those many skills you have, to bring more income and romance into your weekend. 



AQUARIUS

This week is going to be one heck of an adventure for you Aquarius, not that you didn't see that coming. The Magician is sweeping his wand over your week, bringing you challenges, triumphs and learning lessons throughout the next five days. The day starts out slowly as your signs windy energy fizzles out on the ending Leo moon. The Three of Wands appears first in this weeks scope for you, and that is a good thing, because it means you're finally starting to see the opportunities available to you. And now that you can see them, you can finally make the choice to finish the job, make the commitment or stop procrastinating on that project. Whatever you do, the Eight of Wands says that Monday and Tuesday are not good days to start new projects, make new deals or worry about the arrows that fell flat. The Vesta-Venus play going on overhead is going to effect the balance of your love life in the middle of the week, and it looks like you're going to have to make a big choice concerning the Sun and Lovers Reversed. And trust me, this isn't a choice you want to ignore, because the Tower Reversed reminds us that we have two choices: Jump or Be Pushed.

This issue looks like it's going to carry on to the end of the week and by Friday, when the moon goes from Libra to Scorpio, you're going to really be wishing it were over with, solved or put behind you. If you dealt with the issue, then know it will pass soon. If you didn't, as I'm worried you didn't, you're going to be facing another issue that you don't want to deal with (which scorpio moons are known for - the issues we don't want to deal with) concerning a choice from the Two of Wands Reversed and a feminine issue concerning the reversed Queen of Cups. Coincidentally, the Queen of Cups is Scorpio, and that means you're going to be feeling extra emotional, so try not to splash to many people with your water as you bare your emotions with a shaky hand.


PISCES

After such a cruddy weekend, I have good news for you Pisces, things are about to look up. As we change out of the Leo Moon, whose fire rubs your watery sign the wrong way, we're going into a Virgo Moon, which means it's time to get out of that bad mood and make some Mud Pies! Your theme this week is Personal Power and Manifestation as the Ace of Wands represents your underlying mission in this life.

The Star is gracing you with her presence on Monday and Tuesday, bring you plenty of emotional and spiritual energy to replenish what you lost over the last weekend, and then some. During the middle of the week, I want you to be cautious not to be overly guarded about your money, emotions or possessions. You have the Four of pentacles in your chart, and he reminds you that while there are bad, scary or yucky issues in life, without them, the good wouldn't be as great as it is.

Thursday and Friday you're faced with a choice as the Libran Moon brings you into balance with Venus. The mixture of Venutian-Gemini-Libra energy, along with the Sun who rides herself right into the end of your week, means that regardless of what you choose, commit to or open up about - will be the right choice and bring you more happiness.


ARIES

I'm sorry to say that this week just doesn't look like your week Aries. It's not all bad, but with the earth coming at you from Vesta in Taurus and the Moon in Virgo, it's like your fire just had a huge wad of mud laid on top of it. Venus will also be trying to reach you this week, as she sends you a gust of Gemini air to keep your spark alive, though it looks like it's not going to be enough to really nourish your flames. So hold on Monday as the Blocked Page of Wands brings you some ackward news that you're not quite sure how to handle. It looks like the news is either coming from someone younger that you work with, a sibling you're not really fond of, or someone from your past that has gone well past wearing out their welcome.

On Tuesday it looks like you've lost control of a relationship, your emotions or a business partnership, and thinks may be looking rather grim. The Reversed Three of Swords compliments you on being cautious right now, but it also reminds you that often times things look worse then they appear at first. Being the quick fire sign that you are, you'll catch on quickly and make the decision, come through on your end of the deal or right your wrongs when the Chariot Reversed appears. This will be especially helpful on Wednesday as the Tower forces you to make a spontaneous decision regarding the balance of your life, it's foundations and where you see your relationship, business or health in the next five years. The Moon will have changed over to Libra by then, and this forces you to look deeply at issues concerning your social circles, intimate relationships and/or charities. Try not to let yourself get to self-indulgent as the Magician Reversed comes into your Friday and the Libran Moon gives way to Scorpio. Remember that not everyone functions on your level, but that doesn't mean they are a lost cause. Seek the information between the lines today, and you'll ascend yet another level.


TAURUS

Monday looks to be a bit cold and blue for you Taurus. The Ten of Swords lays exhausted on the ground, baring his swords brutally for the world to see. He tells me that the Venus-Vesta battle is hitting you pretty hard as the Moon transitions into Libra. It looks like something happened Sunday or early Monday during the Leo moon that left you a little scorched, and now you've become distrustful of those around you. If you've been asking yourself lately whether somebody can be trusted, the Ten of Swords sends a big fat NO answer to you. The same goes for any work, relationship or financial issues. Though keep in mind, that just because one person or situation didn't work out the way you planned, doesn't mean that the rest of the world will die away too. It just means that now you've made room for new doors to open and fill your life with new opportunities. Now, being the Taurian you are, I know that you really didn't want anything to change right now, and the Reversed Star signifies just how emotionally injured you're feeling about this. Vesta has your heart right now, and if your issue was romantic based, you might be feeling the need to go out and reconnect to yourself through some physical, material or recreational pleasures. This is fantastic if your single, but if you're not, or you're not sure that you're single "yet", then be careful about the choices you make on Wednesday, as the Eight of Cups encourages you to consider what you might be leaving behind if you walk away now.

It looks like things really start looking up as Thursday nears and the moon comes fully into Libra. Now you're really feeling the love of your mother planet Venus, and she is sending you plenty of replenishing energy and opportunities with the King of Pentacles. He says that it's time you get off your fanny and do something, build something, go somewhere or start a new project. The moon will be going into Scorpio on Friday, which just so happens to be your day of the week (Venus's Day) and as such, you've received the Six of Wands - the card of VICTORY. So whatever it was you were dealing with through the week, will end well for you no matter what you decide to do. This will put you in a good mood, finally allowing you to take advantage of the Two of Cups shinning down on your stars - so be prepared for romance, adventure and emotional nourishment.


GEMINI

Boy has Venus got some interesting adventures in store for you this week Gemini! She is presiding as the high Queen of your sign, and manifests herself as the Queen of Wands in your scope this week. She tells me that she plans to make sure that you have some fun this week, so be prepared. On Monday, it looks like the Devil is in the details, and you'll need to iron out an issue involving passionate love, business or art. If you can find away to keep yourself away from negative thinking patterns, you'll be more able to accept a positive win from the Five of Swords on Tuesday and Wednesday, instead of that worthless victory we usually see.

On Thursday you're feeling like the Fool, and that's put you in a good mood. Take advantage of that Venus power, as she decides to play nice with Vesta for a moment and allow some of that Taurian love and Gemini romance to hit your chart. Relax, open up and meditate on the direction you're going in now. Do you want this relationship to continue, end or stay where it is? Friday looks a bit dull as the Five of Pentacles reversed brings the emotional Scorpio Moon to you. Remember that sometimes it's more fun to give then to receive. Getting something back is just a bonus.


CANCER

This week is actually looking really good for you Cancer, though it may not seem that way from you point of view throughout the whole ride. Though your mood changes as quickly as the moon, and since she is going from Leo to Void to Virgo to Void to Libra to Void to Scorpio. With all that energy PLUS the Venus-Vesta battles overhead, it's no wonder you're so up and down about things this week. In the beginning of the week, the vestal virgin's quickly lap up the left over Leo Moon energy and take over your ego, which helps you take advantage of the King of Pentacles on Monday and Tuesday, who is lending you his power to make some extra money, shore up any last minute details or win favor from your court. The only string attached to this, is that the Eight of Swords reversed AND the Nine of Swords reversed are also in your early week scope and that means that although you know it's time to move forward, make the commitment, pick something or talk about it, you just don't feel ready. It's the will of the Eight of Swords urging you forward that clashes against the fears of the Nine of Swords, fears that are holding you back. If you can see through the illusion of fear this week Cancer, your world will change profoundly.

On Wednesday, as Vesta gives into Venus, the world will start to seem right again as you focus on the home, the relationship or the business, which ever one you've been neglecting the most lately. It is the Ten of Pentacles who cheers you on in your endeavor to grow, commit or look forward. That energy sends you into action in both your romantic and business sectors, which is great for your pocket book and a lover, friend or business partner in your world. Sadly though, as much as this positive energy stays in your stars of business and love, it looks like the reversed Ten of Swords is going to cloud your view with more negative illusions on Thursday, which puts you in a reclusive and down right crabby mood, which leads you to offend the Queen of Wands in some way, as she appears reversed in your later week. It maybe that you said something rash, broke a commitment you made to her or you rejected her in some way. Either way, she is a helpful figure to you and not someone you want to lose to a moments impatience. Let her know softly that you just need some time to deal with your moons, and then you two can work things out. 

This time, it is the illusions of past relationships, jobs and friendships that haunt you, and as Venus and Vesta continue to tug on your heart strings - one pulling you toward something newer and more amazing, and one urging you to hold back and keep what once was but isn't any more. This is a dynamic time Cancer, and while it will be rough, the good news is that you will make it through it. Yes, the reversed Five of Cups agrees that it is not a great feeling to finally let the past rest in peace, but sometimes it is necessary if we want to be happy. You do want to be happy, don't you dear Cancer? This Friday ends in a new Scorpio moon, making you feel extra watery and sentimental, and while it's fine to take time for grief, don't let it ruin your weekend.  


LEO

Whether you are a man or woman, this week your role is as the Queen of Swords. This means that you've got a secret side that you're hiding from the world, which is fine, as we all have a few secrets, but the Queen urges you to try and open up this week Leo, let some of the light shin in on that other side of you, otherwise you're tan will be all one sided, and we can't have that. Either way, we can work on your more prickly issues later on, as the Eight of Swords comes in to distract you on Monday, offering your work, opportunities and skill building experiences. That will come in handy as the Ace of Wands brings a financial issue into the picture, which means you'll have to spend more than you wanted to, dig into the savings or find yourself covering for someone elses lack of money.

Wednesday you should really take a rest Leo. All this infighting between Venus and Vesta has got you in a mood, and you're better off if you allow yourself to relax in the Four of Swords tomb. It's blocked today, but in a positive position, which means that if you get that rest, your world will seem right side up again sooner than you think. This will help you make it through the charity, community or financial issue that comes to surprise you on Thursday. More good news heads your way on Friday as the Reversed Nine of Cups is bringing you a rare opportunity to have a very intense wish come true. Take advantage of that opportunity and you'll find yourself in a very romantic and passionate situation on Friday evening, so long as you don't allow the Scorpio moon to get you over-focused on your love life to the exclusion of everything else. 


VIRGO

It look's like you're feeling a bit anti-social this week Virgo. I'm rather surprised by this, seeing as Vesta has you wrapped up in her seductive arms right now. Then again, the Taurian vibes she's reigning down on you, make you all sentimental, and that can cause a lot of inner battles over your commitments, obligations, responsibilities and passions. It looks like most of this bad mood is do to issues at work, where it appears there a small war going on between you and some co-workers, a boss or someone at home whose making your work day hellish. Because the card is reversed, this is clearly an open conflict and one that isn't going to go away just because you push on through it. Step back and get some support, ask for help or be vulnerable enough to say you don't know what to do - and help will come. It will come in the form of the Queen of Wands on Tuesday, who cools you down with a kind wit and seasoned wisdom. She could be a mother, sister, boss or a part of yourself that reaches out a thwacks you on the head with her staff. It's smarts a bit, but you know she's just playfully reminding you to stop being so anally rententive. You don't have to win EVERY time, and even if you do win, that doesn't mean someone else has to be the loser.

Wednesday the World seems right again as you pass into a new phase in your life along with the Moon who dances her way into Libra. You're feeling a bit social, which is important since you're going to want to be out and about if you want to take advantage of the romantic energy that Venus is offering you. Just be careful not to ignore your darker side on Thursday as the Moon Blocked comes in for closer inspection of your inner nature. Remember that we all have a dark side, and it isn't bad, doesn't need to be hidden and we certainly shouldn't be ashamed of it. Be comfortable being who you are, good-bad and everywhere in the middle. Friday it looks like you've got some chores on your list, but you may be short some supplies or resources that you need to get the job done. The Seven of Swords can help you out, but only after you make a tough moral, social, financial or romantic decision. Sometimes you just have to take the good with the bad Virgo, you know how it is.


SCORPIO

You've found yourself in the midst of some real competition this week Scorpio, and it doesn't look like it's going to go away just because you flash your deadly stinger at it. No, it looks like Vesta and Venus are in a fowl mood this week, and you're going to have to deal with the energy they're releasing into your world. It won't be all bad, but it does mean you'll need to keep a keen eye open for the things in your life you have to be thankful for, and be mindful not to over focus on what you still need or want.

On Tuesday the Virgin Moon is making your social, romantic or business life into a bid of a muddy mess as the Reversed Three of Pentacles comes to preside over your day. Try to tie a knot at the end of your rope so you'll have something to hang on to until Wednesday brings you the Libra Moon. By then you'll be feeling better, even if the Hanged Man shows that you've had to make some sacrifices this week. He says you'll be feeling so good, that you might feel like blowing some bubbles, collecting sea shells by the sea shore or involving yourself in a deep conversation with a younger man or woman you've had your eye on.


LIBRA

Wake up Libra! I know your just plain exhausted after last week, but this is no time to lay around like the Four of Swords. The prisoner of the tomb reminds you that although it's good to take some time to rest, you don't want to hide away, as your love life, business and inner spirit will stagnate and die away if you do. And I know that the Reversed King of Cups can make it especially hard to want to crawl into the light of the day on Monday, it isn't your favorite day of the week as it is. Though it's still necessary to get out there, and besides, if you can stay active in the beginning of the week, you'll find yourself with some good opportunities available from the card of Judgement, which bestows on you the fine ability to intuitively see just where you need to be and at the right time. The middle of the week are really full of power for you as Venus in Gemini allows you to take on some of her power. Just make sure you use the force for good, otherwise that Reversed Eight of Pentacles will make sure you don't see that financial return, recognition or award you've been waiting on. Friday brings us a new Scorpio Moon, which puts you in another power position with the Queen of Swords. If you are of the Feminine gender, she will fill you up with Vesta's seductive grace. If you're of the masculine gender, then look out for a lovely lady who will sneak up on you and sweep you off your feet.


SAGITTARIUS

Holy rusted metal Sagittarius! It looks like you have the best Tarotscope out of all the signs this week, which is so nice to see, since you've been being pounded by cosmic negativity the last few weeks (and then some). Though it was all in the name of growth, learning lessons and positive expansion, so the previous weeks were not lost, even though it may have seemed that way before. Thankfully, you've not only got the Love of Venutian-Gemini Air coming into nourish your inner flames, but you've got a rare opportunity to take advantage of Vesta's Taurian seduction powers. Maybe it's you're wise ability to see the compromise in all things, or maybe it's because all that Earth and Air have mixed well with your Fire, but either way, you've gotten Venus and Vesta to play nice in your sign, and it looks like you'll fully enjoy every bit of power they both send down to you.

On Monday you have the Ace of Cups, leaving you open to the ultimate romantic, emotional or spiritual experiences. With the moon changing over to Virgo on Monday afternoon, I suggest that you try to maintain some of your practical senses, as that Ace will having you feeling rather drunk with power, and you might not be thinking as clearly as you usually do. Be especially careful not to make any commitments if you plan to be under the influence of any liquid intoxicants. Tuesday that handsome king you've been waiting on hand and foot, is coming to return the favor with a financial windfall, romantic gesture or a positive phone call or email about the job or extra work hours you've been waiting to hear about. Wednesday and Thursday you get an extra burst from Venus as her Taurian position combines with the new Libra Moon. Vesta isn't sure how she feels about Venus lavishing you with so much attention, so she sends you the Reversed King of Wands, which puts wrench in your business plans, relationship or transportation for a short while, but it looks like you quickly get the issue worked out and find yourself in the lap of the Emperor. He brings you more positive energy in the form of fuel for your flames. Use it wisely Sagittarius, and the World will reward you handsomely on Friday, with a blast from your past.

Tarotscopes for April 23rd - 27th

I'm sorry to those of you whom were hoping for a weekend tarotscope. Finding myself farther behind than I thought I would be, I felt it was better to prepare your tarotscopes for next week then to try and do double time and not get the new scopes published by Sunday night. Next weekends will be ready and waiting for you by Friday morning, so you can plan accordingly. =)

Now, for the week of April 23rd through April 27th:

This week is full of the power of the Wands and back by the energy of the Sun, who tells me that there should be plenty of cloudless sunshine this week, which I know we here in Seattle are badly craving!

During this week you'll find yourself wrapped up in the spring passion of Taurus, energized by the twins during the Gemini Moon and romanced by the Cancer moon cycle coming in at the end of the week. Many of you are going to be juggling your financial needs along with the passionate stars in your true love sectors.

The general theme of this week is going to be CHANGES. If you're a Cancer like my better half, this week might be rather turbulent for you in psychological way. Whereas if you follow the fiery ways of my fellow Fire signs, you'll probably encourage the changes to come and leap out there to seek some adventure. Either way, and regardless of your main tryst of signs, some part of you died over the week and a new part of you has been born. Depending on what part of you that was, will determine how your week will play out.

For the most part on Moonday, we will all be feeling the retribution of the Queen of Wands reversed. That could mean you'll be trying to make things right with your sister, mother, partner, co-worker or neighbor. Or it could mean that you're doing battle it out with some inner issues surrounding over-indulgence, health, spending or matters of the home and hearth. By Tuesday you'll be feeling a bit more in sink as the Two of Pentacles lends you his juggling abilities and gives you the chance to atone for anything you've done to others or to yourself. This would be a good day to pay some bills or think about how your going pay off any current debts. Wednesday brings us into the view of the mistress on the Sun card, and she's is praising the power of the moon under Gemini. The air of the twins and earthy nature of the bull will come together to help you get through any spring cleaning, organizing or clearing of emotional imbalance. By Thursday you're really feeling much better and have made things right with your Wand issues, meaning that you've gotten your thoughts in order, made things right in your relationship or come to a final decision about something that's been bothering you. The Six of Wands will make sure that you get a little something for being a brave tyke through all this yucky work.

Friday you will jump out there again under the power of the Cancer tide, and the Eight of Wands will lead you into a whole new perspective. He'll give you eight major things to think about concerning your relationships, career, past and emotional issues. He asks you what you want to manifest in your life now. The marksman isn't the only card in your scope for Friday either, as the Six of Cups has decided to pay you a pleasant surprise. The dwarf and his friend are in a playful mood and they've decided it's a good day to reunite you with someone from your past, or to remind you of the pleasant parts of your past, so they can motivate you towards a successful future.


CAPRICORN

Wow! It's going to be a busy week for us Cappy's! Love, money, travel, power and justice are all showing significantly in this weeks Capricorn tarotscope. Justice gracefully presides over your Monday and she wants me to inform you that if you were owed anything, it will be repaid today. She also warns that if you owe on something yourself, you should make it right today. So return that favor or make sure you pay back any money you owed. If you're involved in any legal bouts or waiting on any settlement decisions, today they might be settled or start moving forward. Justice also says that if you've been wronged in some way in your relationships in the past few weeks, that today your partner might see the light, apologize or finally realize what it is you want from them. Either way, balance and justice are your Monday themes.

Tuesday you're feeling a bit arrogant from your win on Monday, and although you may be amused by your dark sense of humor today, others might not be able to keep up and they won't thank you if you turn the comedy spotlight on them. Instead, Tuesday is a much better day to ignore the Reversed Fool and focus on your work, finances or relationship. The Two of Pentacles suggest that today you should work on your writing, communication or travel planning. Wednesday you're feeling a bit frisky and a bit romantic, but it seems like you just don't have the magnetism you need to get your partner involved or the energy to go out and find a partner if your single. This isn't a horrible thing! I know what you're thinking cappy's, and although it might be frustrating, the Four of Cups reversed is no reason to get all depressed. You've been working so hard on staying out of that lower personality floor filled with your lesser emotions, and you won't find that anything will change if you go back there. Things will get better as the Two of Wands says, and by Thursday things should already be looking up. The Cancer moon will be over your head, which will not only bring you into a happier tude, but it will bring that romance you've been looking for. But you won't notice any of it if you stay in and sulk. You'll need to decide where you're going to go today. Get out and communicate or spend sometime doing something social, you'll thank me for it on Friday when you're good mood helps you and the Queen of Pentacles really get things done at work, around the home and in the relationship.

The Emperor reminds you that you are super sexy when you follow your own inner drummer. People just can't help but to gravitate towards your confident and gracious energy when you're doing what you really love. So work on a favorite project, finish writing that book, host a party or get out there and show the world how well you can rule it.


AQUARIUS

You're feeling a strong call in three different directions this week Aquarius. On the one hand, you'd really like to stay where you are and finish organizing your thoughts, on the other hand, you could really use some adventure about now and there's another part of you that knows you should really get out and do something productive . The Three of Wands feels your pain and suggests that there is no need to rush. Think about your options and choose wisely.

Monday is all about getting things done. You've got lots of Wands in your tarotscope, and they are ruled by Fire. Your ruling element is Air, and when mixed with the right amount fire, we get BIGGER fires. This is the sort of energy you'll really be feeling this week as you're driven to get things done, cross things off your list and have some fun. The Eight of Wands is going to make sure you hit your mark on any project, draft or grumble you make on Monday, while the Ace of Cups is going to help you replenish your emotional energy. This is a good day to attend to your body, health, spirituality and intimate relationships.

The Four of Wands is in reverse on Wednesday, and that usually means you're not going to be in the greatest frame of mind. It might be because you didn't get that promotion, or maybe you're partner said something to you that hasn't been sitting well. Either way, that darker mood is going carry on to Thursday if you don't get a handle on things, and that might cause some unfortunate communication, miscommunication or delays when the Knight of Swords enters your charts in reverse.
Friday looks like it will be a social day, and hopefully that will be just what you need to turn that Reversed Three of Cups right side up again. Be forewarned though, that with the mood you're in, things are rather unpredictable right now, and so are you.


PISCES

Monday quickly rushes up on you as the Knight of Swords ignites your need to get things done, get out of the house or start new projects. The Gemini moon just amps you up even more, blending well with your watery element to make tons of tiny bubbles. Go with your whims today Pisces, and try to carry that good attitude on with you through Tuesday, as it looks like you're going to be receiving some news that the Reversed Nine of Pentacles says will frustrate you or make you anxious. What ever this news is, it's like to make it difficult for you to want to do much of anything afterward, and that's okay. Take some time to recuperate if it feels right. On Wednesday the Eight of Cups says you'll have a better idea of whether or not you want to stay in the relationship, end the project or look for a new job.

On Thursday a man with darker hair will take his seat upon the King of Swords thrown. He's here to support you, help you deal with changes and challenges and to help you stay motivated. Friday you might find you're a bit bored with everything around you. It just seems like all the inspiration has left the world as the Cancer moon leaves you feeling extra emotional. Don't worry though, as the Four of Cups Blocked is facing up, which means you should be looking forward to a fun weekend.


ARIES

Clearly this weekend left you a bit resentful in the romance department Aries, though that doesn't necessarily mean your drought will continue. In fact, the Ace of Cups intends on replenishing your emotional and energetic cup on Monday as your fiery energy mixes in with the new Gemini (air) moon to ignite some real flames. Now, the only tricky part is that the cards don't say which emotion will be allowed to gather the most of your consciousness. The choice is yours ultimately, do you want to use this new burst of energy to do good, build bridges and strengthen foundations in your career, love and financial sectors? Or do you want to allow the Four of Wands reversed to declare victory as you sink into a stubborn stink? If you choose the later, Wednesday looks to be rather annoying from your perspective. Though if you take the first option, you could turn that reversed Three of Pentacles around and receive the positive social support you really need this week. That support will help you deal with the changes you've decided to make on Thursday surrounding the end of old jobs, relationships or projects.

Friday you'll be getting mixed vibes as the King of Wands sweeps over your stars to help bring you better perspectives about your life. You'll delve deeper into yourself and then come out to realize that the Four of Cups is right, this bad attitude, bad health or bad relationship just isn't worth your time! It's boring and unproductive, and you know that there are better options just within your reach...



TAURUS

Happy birthday to all your Taurus's born between April 23rd and April 29th! This week is full of promising emotional adventures and new beginnings. It doesn't appear to be that great of a week for money, teamwork or new agreements, but the week looks fantastic for changes, romance and greener pastures. On Monday the Five of Wands reversed is suggesting that you should be the one to back down and walk away if anyone tries to pick a fight with you or just rubs you the wrong way.

Bickering, arguing or trying to win debates will only waste your time and upset you further. Though if you can turn away from the challenge, frustration or argument, you'll find yourself getting a lot done which will put you in a better mood. The Gemini moon and the Five of Cups have you a bit emotional on Tuesday as some part of a project or relationship falls apart. Keep in mind that you can still salvage it, but only if you stop wallowing over some spilled milk. If you realize you can always refill those fallen cups, you'll bring yourself into a confident Wednesday where you're finally able to make the decision about whether you want to stay or leave that job, relationship, home, project or organization.

That confidence will carry over into Thursday as the King of Wands guides you through one of the first of many re-births that you will have this year. He advices you to focus on romance, business and/or health today, and to keep your eye out for butterflies. They almost always appear in the corner of our eyes when we are going through transformations like the one you're going to hit on Thursday. Be mindful that some of that transformation might open your eyes a bit farther then you're used to, allowing you to see the Two of Cups reversed in your path on Friday as Cancer takes over the moon.
The Cancer moon tends to awaken the Empath in all of us, and if at that time you have noticed some big issues in your relationship, are in an argument with your partner or you are wondering about taking your relationship to the next level - then it's time to talk about the issues calmly, forgive and forget or stop and slow down before you rush the relationship when there's no need to. Venus is shinning her light down on Taurus's this week, so overall, it's a great week for love, socializing and play - so long as you can keep a handle on your temper, avoid overindulgence and keep some corks on those horns!


GEMINI

Gemini, you're probably feeling a little frisky, a little day-dreamy and very creative. We're under a Gemini moon for most of the week and that's a lot of power in the direction of your natural element, which opens you up to countless opportunities in business, art and love. Though with all those opportunities, it can be all to easy to fall into confusion about what to chose. Though there's no need to rush, so feel free to sit and contemplate your options with the brand new Gemini Moon on Monday.
Tuesday you've had enough contemplation and you're ready to make that decision, start that project or make that agreement, though you're still just not sure what you want to do. Usually the Seven of Wands reversed would agree that you should wait and think about it more, this time he reminds you of the proverb "He's who hesitates is lost", let that anxiety to choose, motivate you to get it over with, just say it or make that decision. It won't be so bad, I promise.

Wednesday the world seems just a little bit more cheerful, and why shouldn't it, you were able to do what needed to be done and that is definitely something to be proud of! The World feels you should sing, dance, play, write, swim or get into the garden to help you celebrate and get in touch with her. Thursday it looks like the Knight of Wands reversed has some bad news for you. He says it's not all that bad really, it's just that some news you were looking forward to might be delayed, or a call you were expecting doesn't seem to come. Or it could be as simple as the frustration of hitting every darn red light on your way to work. Be patient and this to shall pass. Friday the Cancer Moon has you feeling wounded from a lovers spat, disagreement with a co-worker/boss or struggling with a bout of depression. The Three of Hearts needs you to remember that problems in your relationships (whether work or personal) don't signal that those relationships are doomed dead ends. Look for the metaphor in your problems and don't wallow in shoulda, coulda or woulda's. Instead, plan a fun and distracting weekend for yourself. It could be solo adventure, an outing with friends or with a spontaneous romantic getaway partner - you decide.


CANCER

As per usual, Moonday is going to continue to be a crummy day of the week for you. Though Ten of Wands reversed REALLY wants me to STRESS the importance of perspective in situations like these. Remember that a heavier work load usually means a bigger paycheck, bonus or tip. Extra demands around the home means more things will get done, you're partner will be in a better mood and you'll feel less anxious about the state of your house. It's all in the way you look at it Cancer, and though I know Monday's new moon in Gemini is giving you less control over your emotions than you normally have (which isn't a lot to begin with!), though in this case, any effort you can give to being in a better mood will result in a better week for you.

The power of the Sun rides into your stars on Tuesday with some of Saturn's influence. This makes it a good day for sticking your nose to the grindstone with work, relationships and health. If you've found yourself looking for a new job, in need of rekindling romance or in need of an impromptu vacation, Tuesday is your day. Wednesday you've found yourself in the middle of a lover's spat, argument at work or emotional crisis and the Two of Cups reversed wants to make it clear that you shouldn't over focus on your relationship, obsess about love (or any lack thereof) or make spontaneous decisions (like quitting your job over something silly). Remember that your moods are extra powerful this week Cancer. You could go from horny honey to aggro-crab in less than 60 seconds, and back again or completely off into a new emotional direction. During these kind of roller coasters it's easy to just let loose, but it's not a good idea this week.

Thankfully, once you make it to Thursday, it looks like you'll be finding balance again when the Five of Pentacles brings you that financial reward, repayment of debt or sudden unexpected kindness from nowhere. Even still, you might be feeling a bit out of sorts from so many drab days in a row, and it's important to remember that thing about perspective. Especially when Friday's new moon in Cancer brings you the Four of Pentacles reversed. He's that greedy bugger who comes in and reminds us to ease up when we are smothering our partners, guarding our emotions to closely, pinching pennies to tightly or staying in a situation out of fear or anxiety. Friday is a time to let go, be free and bask in the radiant Cancer moon that you really need to help you rejuvenate. During the day you should take the time to do some soul searching, what are you ready to do or say? What are you moving past or through right now on an emotional level? What does your current job offer you that is practical for the future you see yourself heading towards? Answer these questions and you'll start the weekend off on a better side of the bed.


LEO

This last weekend was clearly frustrating for you with people taking too long, payments being delayed or people being jackasses. This week isn't going to be a ton better, and the Nine of Swords reversed wants to make sure you take some time to yourself on Monday. Go somewhere that reminds you of better days, see someone who always makes you laugh or get out into the garden and do some active meditating. Whatever you do, don't let the emotional Gemini moon push you into a depressive-aggressive stupor. It won't make you feel better and it won't help you revert that reversed Five of Swords on Wednesday. If it stays reversed you might find yourself on every one's sh*t list, or that everyone is on yours. Try to remain calm and back away from any situations where you feel the need to take an argument, debate or disagreement to the next level (especially if you're dealing with a Taurus this week!). Wednesday the King of Pentacles is coming down to brighten your day.

He might be bringing you that understanding affection you've been craving, the money you've been waiting for, the appreciation and recognition you deserve or the knight in shinning armor you've been dreaming about. Thursday you'll need to keep your wits about you as the Eight of Swords reversed suggests you're missing something you should be noticing. Friday the Ten of Pentacles reversed advises you to focus on home, financial or health issues. It's a good day to romance your honey, play with the kids, finish building that shed or going to that gym you've been telling yourself you'd go to for months.  


VIRGO

Okay so you won the argument, debate or disagreement this weekend, great job. Just keep in mind Virgo, that it is virtuous to be a good loser as much as a sporting winner. This will be the theme of your week, so keep in mind that the game of life isn't about winning or losing, it's about how you play the game. When Monday brings the new Gemini moon into your chart, you're earthy ways are charmed and you find that the Four of Pentacles is opening you up. This will allow you to move to the next level in your relationship, be vulnerable and safe at the same time or to make that career move you've been afraid to make in the past.

Tuesday and Wednesday it seems like you're list of to-do's is only get longer as you run into more issues with the home, your health, your job and your relationship. The Ten of Pentacles reversed wants to remind you that you have a lot more than others do, that you should be grateful for. Think about those things and think about what you could lose if you shake things up simply for entertainment or variety. The Five of Wands reversed warns that you're rather combative mid week and it would be wise to back away from any disagreements, arguments or debates - even if you're positive you could win.

This week brings you into a unique situation in terms of love and business Virgo. You've got some choices to make and it doesn't look like you're going to be given as much time as you'd like to contemplate your options. The Lovers card is dominate in your stars this week and that means it's time to make the commitment, seal the deal, pop the question or sign the agreement. You'll have plenty of opportunity for this during the week - especially on Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday. Once you get that matter handled, it looks like the end of the week is golden for some play, relaxation, spontaneous romance or some time off work. The Page of Pentacles reversed is positive that it's not a good time to start new projects, the Ace of Cups is overflowing with positive emotional energy for you and the Four of Wands reversed says "take two beers and call me in the morning". This works well with you as the Gemini moon shifts into a Cancer moon by Friday and allows you to connect on an emotional level with yourself, a partner or a friend. You really need this, so stop thinking about your to-do list and take a break!


SCORPIO

You hold the fiery power of the Ace of Wands this week Scorpio, which will heat up your natural cool-watery nature and allow you to take hold of any opportunities to write, create or take action. The new Gemini moon on Monday brings you a victory, granted it may not be the victory you felt you really deserved, but it's a win none the less. Just make sure not to gloat about it, people really aren't fond of that, even if you should have already received more recognition. Tuesday you're going to be feeling like a day out, but it's really a better day to stay in. Otherwise you'll run into delays, frustration and emotional up's and down's with the Reversed Six of Swords. The Three of Swords might not seem like your best friend on Wednesday, but it's seemingly ugly forecast actually holds the key to making your relationships better. Try to take the time and contemplate your possible options before you decide on anything, especially on Thursday when the Eight of Swords reversed opens you up to some things that were formerly hidden from your conscious vision. Don't be to shocked by what you see or find out concerning your work, relationship or self-introspection.

When the Cancer moon takes over on Friday you'll be back into the power of Water and your ruling planet the Moon, which will keep you in that introverted mood, which is fine, as long as you remember that the chains worn by the characters in the Devil card, are not clasped tight. They could take them off anytime and walk away with the torch, but they don't because they are focusing to much on what they want but don't have. If you find yourself doing the same thing, recognize that the world will only start to change when you learn to change your perspective.


SAGITTARIUS

Whoa there Sagi! Slow down that emotional chariot you've been parading around in! I know you're feeling extra energetic from this weekends activities, and I'm glad that is carrying over into your week, though you'll want to be careful not to let the Queen of Cups or Page of Cups lead you blindly into your week. They are there to help you stop and smell the roses, communicate openly and to think outside of the box, but they are powerful and enchanting tarot figures who come with the warning that you might be prone to day dreaming, procrastination, over-fantasizing or over-dramatizing situations. While these normally would not be bad things, you'll need a level head in the middle of the week when Temperance reversed urges you to make a risky decision. You'll need to be extra cautious because Monday will only bolster your ego as you find yourself the host of an impromptu party or the recipient of an unexpected romantic gesture. Wednesday doesn't look to bad either, as it looks like someone in your life is reversing their Judgement. This could mean a win in court, a change of heart from a p.o.'ed partner or some extra allowance from a boss or employer.

Thursday and Friday you've got to find the balance as a relationship, work or health matter comes into focus. This is a time to seriously consider all of your options before moving forward. The Eight of Cups reversed weeps at the sight of you just rushing away from that project, but warns that it's better to jump to quickly and risk injury on the way to success, then to become stagnant and starve because you're afraid of potential injury. Move forward, make the choice or get organized. If you need new skills, more education or some fresh advice, DO NOT be afraid to seek it on Friday, the Eight of Pentacles reversed says that "he who does not ask, will never know".

Tarotscopes for April 16th - 20th

It's as if the whole World had frozen over the last week, and as Monday comes, it all starts spinning free again, though this week you're going to feel the force of the restart as if a rubber band had been stretched and then released. The Ten of Pentacles Reversed tells me that this week is mostly about family, business and money over other issues. It's a time to check inventory, take a break from work and be with the kids or to stop and examine what's holding you back in life.


This week starts out full of fiery Aries passion in Mercury, the planet of communication, and is then encouraged as the week continues by the emotional psyche of the Pisces moon. This sort of mixture promises to flush out some secrets, end some debates or clear the air in some other way. The High Priestess has her sights set on sending you the knowledge you need to get you going in the right direction. And she tells me there's a woman in your life who is rather important because of the secret, information, skills or abilities she possess that you need. Seek her out and remember to be respectful, or all you will get from her is a burnt batch of cookies. There is also a boss, father figure or partner playing the part of the Emperor Reversed, whose not going to be to happy on Tuesday, so be aware of his moodiness and try to give him plenty of space. For whatever reason, even after you've figured out which direction to travel in, you'll probably still find yourself confuse about everything, especially when it concerns matters of love, which is what the Moon and Reversed Two of Cups are telling me. It's definitely not a good week to try and force your partner into talks about the relationship or to demand any firm decisions - unless of course you're looking to end the relationship, then it's a good week for that, and if it's going to happen, it's likely to be on Friday.


MONDAY


When the World jump starts, it often signifies the end of some aspects of ourselves or parts of our lives, and symbolizes the bold new beginnings that are now taking place. Monday is still in the 4th quarter of the Aquarius moon, which means freedom and creativity play a huge role today. The moon won't stay in Aquarius for long though, and after 5 am, the moon will then shift into Pisces, awakening you sense of nostalgia. This could be a good thing, though it depends on what you're being nostalgic about and the Six of Cups reminds you that good memories are sometimes only good memories because we are no longer in the same situations or circumstances, or because we are no longer involved with the person or persons those good old memories are about. On a better note, the Knight of Cups has made his presence stand out so that I can inform you that you should receive some good news on the emotional/creativity front today. With Aries leading Mercury today, you're also likely to see some good business heading your way if your work is social or directly involves communications in some way. Keeping that good news in mind, the card of Judgement is reversed today, which means that even though you could be receiving plenty of good news, your view or perspective of things today might be jaded. Try to take the time to step out of your skin and be thankful for what you have. There is plenty of Saturn energy still residing today from last friday's Capricorn moon, which brings out the Devil in us all. If you been fighting, arguing, debating or trying to release a deep inner passion since last week, this week doesn't look much better for you. Frustration, immobility and depression could be highlighted for you this week if you don't create a change of perspective.


TUESDAY


On Tuesday you might feel torn in two, especially if what has ended for you this week, surrounds an emotional issue. Though the good news is, you've got the Page of Swords in all his youthfulness, charging into your stars. He wants to remind you to be open about your feelings, but to be careful about how you share you're opinions. Yes your partner, boss or friend wants to know what you're thinking, but they don't want to be clobbered by a 20 pound sword of retribution either. The Ace of Cups is in reverse as the moon goes void of course after 2pm, so you might feel out of sorts for a while. The High Priestess whispers a reminder that the best things come to those who wait, so be patient and remember that you're cat would like some attention too. There is definitely a woman floating around this tuesday who either really gets your goat, or whom you find is full of fantastic wisdom. She is the key either way, and it's up to you to decide whether you need more or less of her in your life.


WEDNESDAY


There is a man in your world who sometimes just makes you want to jump of the Tower and escape everything, even at the risk of further injury. With the moon going from Pisces into Aries after 3pm, it looks like you might be considering a drastic career, relationship or partnership change. While it is definitely good to scope out your options, and you should never feel locked down with anyone or with any place, the Five of Swords wants to make sure that you don't act out in haste. Yes, the Five of Pentacles says, it can be difficult to bite your tongue and refuse allowing yourself to act on impulse right now, but it might be more of a victory if you step back and allow yourself to see the bigger picture. You might think about  scoping out some jobs new jobs or career moves you feel would suit you better, or you might consider what other relationship opportunities you have out there if you're taken, or if you're single, feel free to take a chance and get out, just don't latch onto the first guy or gal who approaches you at the bar. Before the end of Wednesday, you should keep your eyes open for any opportunities in disguise, for it's through those subtle chances that we take, that we often find the biggest rewards. Today the reward is likely to be a monetary windfall that you could really use, but only if you keep your mind open to just about anything.


THURSDAY


Today the day is ruled by masculine energy, but driven by the feminine. It seems that you have a lot on your plate as the sun enters Taurus and you find yourself at another crossroad. The Queen of Cups has come into your chart to try and nurture you, but if that won't work or she feels you don't really deserve it, her purpose will become a need to goad you into something you'd rather not be doing right now. The Queen represents that woman in your life, who you either look up to or just can't get away from. Or it could be that you find both those aspects in the same woman, who could be your wife, girlfriend or mate. Remember that she isn't trying to make your day worse, she does really care, she's just not always sure of how you want her to be around you, which can give off the appearance that she is needy, desperate or wishy-washy, when she's really not. It's just that one part of her wants to be the wise, strong and independent Queen she thinks you want her to be, and the other part of her wants to scream at you to just give her the tiniest clue as to what you want from her. The Two of Wands Reversed makes his presence known by the end of the day, and he wants to remind you that if you feel like you've made a bad decision or any mistakes in how you communicated with someone earlier, that it's never to late to walk back down the path and try the other direction.


FRIDAY


It looks like the Taurian way of 'bully' into everything, is going to win out today. Which means that you've either gone charging into a situation you can't back out of now, or someone else in your life has been way to pushy or headstrong and has made you distance yourself from the situation. The irony here, is that all this chaotic and emotional energy this week, has actually charged you up, not drained you. If you're in a relationship, even if you've been bickering all week, this Friday looks good for intimacy. And with Friday being Venus's day, combined with it being a new sun in Taurus, it looks like there's going to be some lightning charged love energy coming your way. And in true bull fashion, you're always 'horny' (pun intended!), especially today. In fact, the only thing that would get in the way of taking advantage of the positive energy from the Reversed Two of Cups, is if you let your anxieties about your relationship, career situation or emotional trauma - get in your way. The Nine of Swords reversed jumps into your chart to remind you that If you find that you're having trouble seeing the humor in life, or you can't stop focusing on how much you hate the way they do that annoying little thing, then it would be a good idea for you to step outside of yourself and have some alone time with the Four of Swords.


CAPRICORN
 

You old goat, you know you've always got something up your sleeve incase your original plans didn't work out, and Monday shows it. The Two of Pentacles shows you juggling home life and business like a specialist, even though the Five of Cups clearly shows someone has set you off emotionally. You had really high hopes for projects or partner, and you're certainly not happy about how things went, but you're basic nature is to get back up on that horse and try again. Thankfully, you already knew just what you would do if this happened, didn't you? With Aries controlling your Mercury, you're likely to be in the middle of multiple intense conversations. One person needs your help getting their life in order, and someone else needs you to need them right now. Usually, I wouldn't have a problem suggesting you go gung-ho and tackle both problems, but this Tuesday and Wednesday, it's more important for you to focus on business then relationships. It's not that you're relationship isn't important, or that they don't want you're attention, it's just that you're so much more attractive when you're following your own agenda. This will mean some sacrifices on their part, and your partner or boss might be upset or confused about you're motives, but in the end they'll figure it out or get out of the way, as most people in your life do. The Hanged Man is sacrificial, but he's not a doormat, and you shouldn't be either.


Thursday you might feel like you or someone you love is playing the part of the Fool. Taking risks that are to big or not taking the time to stop and smell the roses before rushing off to work. If you're partner has been acting funny, controlling or overly needy lately, now is the time to step out of your 'business' hat and show them how much you care. Alternatively, if you're just tired of their combativeness, Friday is a good day to step away and do you're own thing. The Heirophant agrees, and suggests that you might find solace in your occult hobbies or some social activities, though he wants to make sure you remember that don't hide yourself so far away from everyone that you can't be accessed at all. You want to create some distance, and take time for yourself, but the King of Cups wants to know that even when you're on your own distant island, you haven't really left him.


AQUARIUS


For you the day starts out just right on Monday. It's the last day of the moon in Aquarius for a while, which is extra particular for you. The King of Pentacles swaggers his way into your world and whispers sweet nothings about you soon-to-come good fortune in financial, business or career matters. He's steeling a little grin as well, for he knows that you're ultra attractive right now, just like the Empress beside him. Embrace the beginning of your week, as Monday and Tuesday are both great days for adventure, money, love and romance - so long as no pisses you off. On Wednesday you've probably already noticed that your partner, boss or father figure has taken a big interest in what you've been up to. Remember that they aren't trying to smother you or kill you're buzz, they just aren't sure when it will be their turn to receive some of your attention again. They see you as independent, honest and full of abundant energy, and it seems to be directed everywhere else but near them, and that can make your partner, boss or father figure feel rather insignificant in your life by Thursday. If you care, you should stop and make sure they understand that it's not that you're ignoring them or that you don't feel the need to be with them, you're just not really in the mood to focus on emotional/spiritual needs right now. You're in the mood for action, adventure and some good food, that's about it. If they can't cut it, so the Ace of Swords says, then they better stay out of fencing class.


Thursday brings with it a brand new Taurus moon, and sustains your Aries in Mercury, which means that you're in the mood for some lovin. The Knight of Wands is happy to help you charge into any situation like the knight (or knightess) that you picture yourself as sometimes. Though the Six of Swords wants you to make sure that if you are going to rush right in, that you don't have plans to rush right out again an catch the next boat to Burmuda. If you're taken, this would be a good time to sit down and figure out what you want from your relationship, and more importantly right now - what you're partner wants. This isn't a time to decide the fate of your romance from this discussion, but it is something you should take some time to consider before the weekend begins. If you're single, get out there and party. There's no need for attachment, but it's there if you want it, so have fun, seek adventure and don't forget to grab some savory substance while you're out.


PISCES


Poor Pisces, this week just isn't your week. On one hand, you have this drive to seek out something new, fantastic and adventurous. On the other hand, you have a lot of responsibilities and projects that need to be finished before you can move onto something greater. What to do... what to do... Monday highlights the Heirophant, sitting stealthily between his stone pillars. He is suggesting that today is a good day for a walk in the sunshine. Just make sure that while you're doing your walking meditation, that you don't let the Fool walk you right off a cliff. He can be tricky that way, lol. Tuesday and Wednesday are not fantastic days, but the silver lining is that they will help you clear away some of your load and free up some play time. The Ten of Wands reversed is really apparent on wednesday as the moon goes back into Aries in the afternoon. It's a day for you to focus on any business, ego or health needs. If you have any unfinished projects, don't abandon them.


Thursday and Friday are good days to continue those projects, do some spring cleaning or to sit back and contemplate life. The sun will be in Taurus, so make sure to pamper yourself a bit and try to avoid being too sacrificial. Yes people love it when you do things for them, but is that really all you want them to like you for? The Hanged Man didn't think so. With all the Cups energy combining with the New Moon in your sign, it's probably going to be an up an down week for you emotionally, so be mindful of your moods lest they interfere with your work and relationships more than necessary.


ARIES


Everyone seems a bit wishy-washy as the skies prepare to take on your moon for the next month. And if they're not emotional, is seems like they're just plain slow. As we roll into a sun in Taurus, you're really going to be feeling your martian energy kicking in. You want to get things do, get other things out of the way, tie up loose ends and finally find the solutions to your relationship problems (especially if you have Aries in your moon sign). Even with you're short temper and all the hold ups that only frustrate you further, this week looks like it's going to be a victorious one for you Aries. There might be a few casualties along the way, but after all the bandages are applied and the wounds licked, you be feeling superior again. Amazingly, thanks to Strength and Temperance on Monday, it looks like you are somehow able to pull off all these amazing 5 day feats with some patience and grace. This is a heck of a time for the Aries sun and Aries moon sign persons.


You're week is full of the fiery energy of Wands as the Seven of Wands, Page of Wands, Eight of Wands, Ten of Wands and Six of Wands dominate just about everything you're doing. Tuesday and Wednesday you're quiet competitive, though far from arrogant, which gives you the edge you need to barrel through any bad news you get from someone younger than you. Fleeting into Thursday you've found a favored project has gone afowl and it really drags you down for a moment. Though you're far from out for the count as that Taurus sun comes in and drives you to kick some ass and take some names. Here is where you want to be careful though Aries - for throughout the week this is going to be the only real rough patch - the Eight of Wands is reversed and he suggests that you make sure you don't burn any old bridges right now, nor should you try and start a bunch of new projects. Go with the flow on any hobbies, career issues or home projects that you have yet to finish, they are where you'll find the most accomplishment, which will drive you through what seems like a slow starting Friday with the Ten of Wands reversed, but which picks up with an impromtu party with the Three of Pentacles. If you're looking for love, the man or woman of your dreams might attend this party, so make sure to shave! If you're taken, then take this social opportunity to remind your mate that even when you're over focused on everything but him/her, that doesn't mean you don't love them and have naughty thoughts about them throughout the day (trust me, they want to know).


TAURUS


Taurus, Oh Taurus, what is it that you have in store for us? It's the bright blazing sun in your sign this month, and you're already raring for the green flag to wave so you can charge out into those beautiful meadows just beyond your pen. And who could blame you, with you're birthday already knocking down the door? Sadly, I have to burst one bubble for you - it doesn't look like anyone has planned on giving you cash, a raise or time away from work for your birthday. Still, that doesn't mean it's going to be a bad week for Taurians with Arian tendencies. In fact, if you can plow through any financial worries and finish with those loose ends on Monday and Tuesday, and get over any relationship or emotional hurdles on Wednesday, it looks like Friday will bring some very good news with the Knight of Swords. If you have a birthday during the week, Friday would definitely be the best day to celebrate, and you deserve it, so don't delay making your plans if you haven't already.


GEMINI


Whoa Gemini! If it feels like the world is spinning, that's because it is! Though this isn't the time to feel nauseated, it's time to go with the flow and let the World float you toward where you need to be. Monday is definitely a synchronistic day for you Gemini and you're really feeling that artistic Aquarian moon. As Aries takes over mars and Pisces takes to task with the moon, you are finding yourself a bit drained. Maybe it was that late night music session, or that passionate fighting (and making up!) with your mate that lasted until the early hours, but either way, on Tuesday you're feeling a bit sluggish. Which is fine in all reality, because the cards aren't right for money or much of anything productive. So just chillax and enjoy whatever or whomever finds their way into your environment.


By Wednesday you might start to feel a bit concerned about the states of things around you. Maybe it's time to clean out some closets or continue with your spring cleaning (either physically or emotionally). I know you're really not up for more work, but the Star needs you to know that it won't just look better, the work will actually help you feel better too, and it will create some space that you can later use for your more preferred creative activities. It looks like the Knight of Wands reversed has glided into your scene to make sure that you're not disturbed while the world makes sure you have that needed time for introspection. Just remember that the universe is giving you this time purposely, to help you grow, and it's not just that everyone is ignoring you. Quiet the opposite, if you weren't so involved in your own head right now, you might see that others in your life find you ultra attractive right now.


Thursday is a good day to finish up final projects, do dump runs or figure out your agenda for the weekend. By the evening time, even you are starting to feel the seductive vibrations of the Taurian sun and Arian moon, which come together to bring you fun evening of frolic that will give you the opportunity to get out of you're own head for a while.


CANCER


Poor Cancer. From your point of view, every Monday is a flop. Though I've got some news for you, it's not really that Mondays are all that bad - the reason they always seem so topsy turvy and unpredictable for you, is because mondays are ruled by the same planet that rules your sign - the Moon. That's right, mondays were originally Moonday's, way back when before they spruced up the calendars. Sadly, I can't tell you this monday is going to be a whole lot better than any other, though I can tell you that it will be busy, which suits you just fine. Now, you may not be busy in the way you had expected, but there will be plenty to do non-the-less. Maybe your boss has some special task he'd only ever ask you to do, because he knows you are who everyone goes to when they want quality work done. Or maybe you'll find you're able to get off work early, and when you get home it seems like everyone wants to come over or have you come over and help them with something. You love to be needed, even if you'll never admit it, and Monday and Tuesday are great days for being needed. Tuesday in particular, you'll find there's a woman in your life who could really use some extra attention from you. She could be a mother figure, sister, bff or daughter, though I suspect she's you're partner. She's feeling a bit down on the inside and is having trouble communicating it to you, so she's been trying to use her artistic actions to capture your attention and play on your emotional strings. If you open up to her and show her she can be vulnerable with you, she'll let her guard down and you in, or so the Queen of Swords has said.


Wednesday you better keep your schedule open for some fun and organization. It's a great day to get out and spend some money, organize your garden shed or to take your partner or mother for a surprise excursion. If you can go somewhere there's some fresh water, you'll be even better off. Heck, Wednesday looks so lucky for you, you might just find some extra money or other item of value lands in your lap. This will be a great big ego booster, so make sure not to let the new Aries moon inflate your inner narcissist to much. You don't have to worry to much though, because it looks like a there's someone younger then you full of the earthy energy being driven by the incoming Taurian sun, who'll make sure your head doesn't float away. You might feel a little smothered by this persons actions, though they know you'll get over it, and by Thursday evening you'll already be feeling like a King or Queen once again. Friday is a fantastic day for money and social events, and hey! It also happens to be your favorite holiday (4/20!), which means it's a perfect time to get out and mingle. In fact, all the venus energy of Friday's mixed with the venus ruled Taurus sun, has opened up the opportunity for a secret wish of yours to come true. The Three of Pentacles encourages you to be bold, flirtatious and adventurous, which will activate the full power of the Nine of Cups, which is the card of wishes after all.


LEO


You silly Lion, you're sure feeling frisky this week aren't you? I can see that someone from your past is coming to call on Monday, and it looks like you've either been expecting them, hoping to see them or you will be pleasantly surprised. Either way, Monday is a good day for play. Don't worry about your other responsibilities to much now, the Knight of Pentacles is around to keep an eye on your investments, business or projects. And the Nine of Swords is tell me she feels you've done plenty of introspection and perfecting of your work, that now is a good time to release the worry and open up to the fun opportunities available to you from all your hard work. If you can, you might be able to get that Fool reversed to turn back on his feet and show you a good time. Just be careful though, because the Fool is feeling as unsure of his footing as you are. The good news is, you're much more sure of you're own footing by Thursday and you are able to ride through any necessary business communications pretty easily. Sadly, it looks like you're going to have to make a tough decision come Friday... It doesn't look like it's a good time to sign any contracts, make any new deals, finish any projects or start anything new. So you might as well enjoy the fun and freedom that 4/20 Friday can offer to you.


VIRGO


It looks like your in for a rocky road this week Virgo, though there's no need to fret, even though you probably will anyways. Monday you'll find yourself having to spend a bit more than you were expecting, though it looks like you had some money put away for just such an occasion. By Tuesday you're feeling more fiery and the Knight of Wands comes calling with some good news that helps you ride through Wednesday's lack of accomplishment and Thursdays stagnate energy. If you can pull yourself out of that haze and find a way to stop trying to work so hard by Friday, you'll be able to get out and having a good time. You really could use some unadulterated fun too, so make sure you listen to the Nine of Wands reversed and put down that shovel, pen, keyboard or argument. It's not healthy to try and do so many things at once, as the Eight of Wands reversed knows all to well. And don't think it's because I'm challenging your abilities - you're fully capable of accomplishing anything you set your mind to. It's just that now is not the time to worry about work, communication or projects. The weekend will be better, just hold on.


LIBRA


Libra libra libra... It looks like you're still paying the price on Monday for something you did over last weekend. You're feeling a bit tied up now, and not in a positive way, which is what the reversed Eight of Swords is showing me. She says that you should've known better than to stay up all night, push peoples buttons or get into other peoples things. I know that you were just exploring, experimenting and enjoying your carefree side, but you need to remember to pick up after yourself, even when you feel the urge to move right on to the next activity. Because of your actions, Monday will be a day of catching up. You're pretty much going to be home bound and communications will be at a major slow down. Though it looks like you're able to make things right, get everything cleaned up or find balance by Tuesday which shos you entering the spotlight with the Four of Wands. You're really feeling the playful energy of the Pisces moon, though you'll have to be careful of that care free side once again. It's fine to be open and free, but you can't neglect you're regular activities. Either way though, you're dualistic side finds another way to get you out of that spat you had with your mother, sister or boss on Wednesday. She wasn't to happy about your current pattern of spending habits, destruction of items she values or decision not to help out around the house.


Thursday looks to be full of love, open communication, freedom and possibly some sensual social activities, which is just what you were looking for. Just makes sure you pour your own drinks, get home early and/or not share to many secrets with a new lover. If you're taken, you'll be feeling extra amorous with your partner and it's a good day to talk with them about future plans. Friday looks to be fun, but only if you don't try to analyze other peoples actions to deeply. They might seem like your soul mate, but the truth is that they aren't ready to commit, nor are you. The Three of Hearts reversed totally feels your pain, but you are encouraged to keep things casual, remind yourself not to look to deeply into peoples motives and you'll have a great time Friday night.


SCORPIO


I can see that you've been feeling particularly reclusive this week Scorpio. That's all well and good, and you definitely some time for spiritual inspection, though it looks like you might have injured someones feelers on Monday. If you spent more than you should have, refused someone else to spend a little extra or neglected a marked calendar event with your family, you're going to find yourself spending all day making it right. Thankfully, you know just what to do by Tuesday as the Pisces moon opens up your psychic side. That heightened intuition aligns you with the Judgement card in your scope this week, and you're able to bring everything back into full balance by Wednesday. Business looks plentiful from Wednesday on, and it looks like your keen enough to stay on your toes and not miss any opportunities. You're really feeling the earthy Taurian sun warming up your wavy waters by Thursday and Friday, which are great days for you to seek adventure, start a new project with the Page of Pentacles and Eight of Wands or get away with that secret deal or affair you and the Two of Pentacles have been juggling on the side.


SAGITTARIUS








Don't be too foolish this week Sagi. I know you have big plans for Friday night, but that's no reason to give up on everything else you need to attend to this week. This also isn't a week you can find that solitude and freedom you've really been needing. The Eight of Wands tells me that Monday is a good day to work on projects you've been neglecting, and it is the only day this week that is good for starting new projects that you've procrastinated yourself away from. Tuesday there is potential for a lovers or siblings spat, so try to hold your tongue and remember that you can just walk away, you don't have to arch your bow and fight.



Wednesday and Thursday you're craving a reprieve but it just isn't coming, and that aligns you with fowl Judgement and home life struggles. Don't worry though Sagittarius, this isn't the time to feel like you should wonder away. Your best success this week will be in realizing how much you are needed at home right now. Yes business is hell right now and you've had to work your butt off, and yes you deserve time for fun and freedom, but you've been neglecting things for way too long and on Thursday and the Ten of Pentacles reversed warns that this behavior pattern is going to jump up and bite you when you'd least like it to. There is a silver lining though for you Sagittarians, as Friday welcomes you into it's arms, you'll find that you've somehow managed to give everyone a decent amount of your time, and although you didn't get a chance to get the cleaning done, you've at least been able to find something fabulous to wear to that Friday night 4/20 party you've been raring to go to.
