Because it's one of my favorite holidays, and I'm sure you're interested in knowing what might happen if you attend that party or event, or if you host your own impromptu protest session - I'm going to provide you with this special tarotscope: the
4/20 Forecast
Friday April 20th, 2012 (4/20/2012)
Wow! It looks like this
Friday is going to be an active day for everyone! During the first part of the day you're really going to be feeling a drive to get all your chores, responsibilities and errands out of the way. You'll be lead by the fast and furious energy of the
Seven of Wands, making sure that nothing sneaks up to surprise you. You're also going to be feeling overly anxious, and I want you to understand that most of them are logical but irrelevant. The world is not like it used to be and people are a lot more open then they used to be. Still though,
Aries is fueling the fire that's helping you get things done, and the new
Taurus sun is helping to keep you mostly practical, so don't change what you're doing if it's working for you.
By
6pm our
Aries moon will be void of course, opening up the opportunity for you to release any tension, stress, anxiety or responsibilities you've been struggling through all week. We will only see that Aries moon again briefly on Saturday before it gives way to a
Taurian moon. What this means is that you've got until 6pm to finish up any work, projects or details, after that you might as well raise the white flag. Even if you don't go out and have a good time, you won't be feeling like working or doing anything that requires serious brain power. From the looks on the faces of the
Ten of Cups, you're actually going to be in a great mood, despite any issues surround the home, your work or your relationship. The kids will be happily preoccupied and out of your hair, the house will be (mostly) in order and it will be just your luck that your friend, partner or roommate will be in a really good mood to - which only elevates your already good attitude.
You'll be extra attractive tonight and the
Empress wants to make sure that you are going to use that Venus fueled fire to go out and have some fun. Be flirty, be open and remind yourself that there's nothing wrong with hanging out with anyone you're comfortable around. Just because you feel like flirting doesn't mean it has to go anywhere, unless of course you want it to, then the way is clear. Now, with all those good vibes permeating every room you enter, the
Queen of Swords wants you to be careful not to go overboard. There is a woman, partner, mother or sister in your life who wouldn't be happy to find out you'd been a little to adventurous with your actions. They might put on an air of aloofness and act all noble, but on the other side, they're really hurt that you would do such a thing or decide not to do something you'd previously suggested you would.
Overall, Friday looks like a good spread.
Wands, Cups, Swords and the
Major Arcana are all involved to make sure that one way or another you have a good time. So go with the flow, take any punches you receive on the way and whatever you do, make sure you don't hole yourself up inside somewhere!
CAPRICORN
Well Capricorn, it looks like you've got everything taken care of, organized or in balance except that one emotional issue that's been plaguing you for quiet some time. You've worked and struggled to get through the day, but you still can't get away from that thing your partner did, the promotion you still haven't gotten or the way they just don't look at you the same anymore. The first half of your
four-twenty Friday is spent in the clouds with the
Four of Cups. And while he is glad to keep you company, the character in the card is trying to show you that you need only stop sulking and look up to see that what you need is there, just waiting for you to reach out and grab it. If you can get out of your blue attitude, you'll find that things really aren't so bad and your cup is actually full to the brim (not just half full). When the moon goes void of course after
6pm, you'll feel like a part of you has died. And while you might be feeling rather dramatic, the
Ten of Swords reversed wants you to know that things are not always as bad as they seem. Keep an eye out for ten signs that will answer the question you've been asking yourself over and over again. The
Three of Cups reversed also wants to remind you that sitting inside and wallowing over what might have been, won't help you get anywhere in life or in your relationships. Get over it and go play, you'll feel better.
AQUARIUS
So it seems that the man, boss, brother, boyfriend or husband who got on your shit list this week, is still hanging onto your emotional subconscious this
Friday. Whatever they did really seemed to put you in a fowl mood, heighten your anxieties or make you feel restricted in some way. The
Eight of Swords reversed wants me to remind you that when the blindfold and ropes suddenly fall away, it can be a bit of a shock to your system, but it doesn't mean that the world has literally turned upside down. It just the unexpected change that makes it seem so dramatic. Either way, whatever they did won't be on your mind as the evening comes into focus. You'll have found a way to gain back your
Temperance and balance, and you'll be in the mood for some socializing as the sun begins to set. Once that happens, your sign is really going to feel the power of the
Ace of Wands, which is the most powerful Air card in the deck, which will bring you into the height of your own element as you paint the town read and yellow.
PISCES
Wow Pisces, it seems like just this once you've got all your ducks in a line, or is it a row? Either way, you're all set for your next big adventure. Now all you've got to do is make that final decision about where you're going to spend most of your night. Will it be that big
4/20 bash your friends are throwing? Or would you prefer to head to that infamous glass sale that everyone has been whispering about since Monday? The
Two of Wands wants me to hint to you that could do both, you know...
Just make sure that you don't decide to spend your evening at home sulking about something that's changed or someone whose not the same as they used to be. the
Six of Cups reversed feels that the chances are the situation can't be changed, and if it's a person, you can't change them. So there isn't much use it tossing aside all your plans to try and make someone happy who isn't going to be no matter what you do. Just let the
Six of Swords carry you away to more interesting waters and have some fun. Trust me, you'll be thanking me later.
ARIES
The first part of your Friday the
Hanged Man in reverse feels your pain as you feel like your sacrificing everything for everyone else. The work seems to be pouring on, your head hurts and it feels like you'll never be done in time. On top of that, you're not in the greatest mood. The recent
Aries moon really gave you a great buzz and the withdrawal into a
Taurus moon is making you rather crabby. This doesn't help anything, as the Nine of Wands reversed knows, and he suggests that if you stop and take a minute to acknowledge that something emotional has really been bothering you, then the work load will lighten up. It's really not that the world is piling things onto your list, it's that you subconsciously gravitating towards anything that will keep your mind off of your special him or her who did or didn't do something you had asked. You really shouldn't bottle things up Aries, it doesn't suit you. Instead, find a balanced way to communicate with them and it will seem like your schedule has suddenly opened up, plus you'll notice you've got enough money to go out and have a good time.
TAURUS
"Love, love, love love love love...." This Friday is yours for the taking Taurus. It's a fresh
Taurus sun and a soon-to-be
Taurus moon on a Friday -
Venus's day, and Venus conveniently rules your sign. Heck, the only thing that doesn't seem to be going well for you this Friday is your wallets cooperation. You'd love to go out and get a new piece, treat your significant other to some dinner or just go buy yourself something nice, but the
reversed Ace of Pentacles that bonus, payment or windfall you've been hoping for, just isn't going to come in today. Interestingly enough, it looks like the
Star will help you find balance through a lighter haired man or woman, and then the
Queen of Wands whispers that later on you're going to be feeling rather amorous with someone with darker hair. They seem regal, mysterious and dark - which is just the flavor you've been craving lately. Let him or her seduce you, or be the one seducing if you have darker hair, and you'll find that your 4/20 turns out better than you would have ever expected.
GEMINI
You're clearly feeling a bit moody as Friday comes around. That's nothing out of the ordinary for your airy sign, but this time you should sit back and take some well needed time to yourself. I can tell from the
Four of Swords that you would rather be tackling the emotional issue that's been hogging most of your brain power, but the best thing to do right now is let it lay. If you can't let it go, you're more likely to use bad
Judgement later which could result in some hold ups, involvement with authorities or bad trips - none of which you want nor need right now. Though if you can overcome your need to pick and pry, you'll soon find you've cut the restraints of the
Eight of Swords and tossed your blindfold aside, bringing you a new perspective, plenty of emotional durability and clear path towards the
4/20 festivities you really want to be at anyways.
CANCER
Thursday left you with a sour taste in your mouth after you put your foot in your mouth, said something you shouldn't have or received a tongue lashing from someone who knew how to make it hurt. Whatever happened, it's still on your mind Friday morning and you're determined to do whatever it takes to make it right. Fortunately, your
4/20 forecast has the
Hanged Man in it, showing that you will figure out that sometimes we must sacrifice a little, if it means pleasing someone we really care about. So dress up like the
Fool and pretend you're excited to go out, and guess what? You'll actually have a great time! All that pretending will start to permeate your consciousness and actually create a good mood. In fact, you might even run into someone who brings you good news, though maybe not in a way you would usually appreciate. The news will come from someone younger than you, with darker hair. The
Page of Swords is in your Friday night
4/20 scope, so make sure you don't
overindulge, as you've been known to do from time to time.
LEO
Don't worry about what didn't get finished this week Leo, you'll have more time next week to tie up those loose ends. For now, revel in the energy left over in your
Five of Cups and be prepared to receive this evening. The
Six of Pentacles is coinciding with the
Queen of Cups to bring you funds, transportation and flirtation where you decide to be tonight. Though that seems to be the problem, doesn't it? Where do you want to go Leo? And whom do you want to be around? You're feeling pulled in several directions as people are vying for your attention. Don't let anyone tell you what to do and pay attention to those hidden messages the
Two of Swords is holding onto for you, she says that you should follow your heart tonight.
VIRGO
Okay, so you won the argument, settled those negotiations or put someone in their place. Great, do you feel better now? I would bet from this
Five of Swords that allow you may have achieved a quick victory, it isn't the kind you've been able to savor. Sometimes it's better to let someone else win and you know it. Thankfully, this
Friday you've come back down to reality and although you might have to play a bit of catch up with the
Two of Pentacles reversed, you'll find yourself with adequate funds and plenty of emotional energy for that
4/20 party you've been planning to go to. You've got the
Nine of Cups in your current stars, which is the famous
Wish card, so be prepared to open yourself up to the opportunities that will bring your wish into reality. If you can keep your options open and curb your conservative side, you might just find yourself with a new business deal, windfall or generous gift from the
Six of Pentacles.
LIBRA
You've got a secret your guarding, I can tell from this
Four of Pentacles reversed that's plaguing your subconscious. He knows that holding things in, hiding things from others or being greedy - will only bring you more problems. Not to mention, if you don't open up and share that work load in the
Ten of Wands, you're only going to find it takes longer to get the job done. Whereas if you asked for a bit of help, you might meet your quota sooner, finish the project ahead of time or find that clarity you've been looking for. That will be a big relief as you take action to get out and have fun tonight. Just be forewarned that the
Five of Swords is in your scope, and he warns you that no one is in the mood to battle with you tonight.
4/20 is generally a peaceful holiday and any combativeness will be rejected amongst your peers tonight.
SCORPIO
It may have felt like you were left in the cold financially when your friend, relative or client didn't pay you on time, but it looks like you'll be compensated soon enough. So take some time to rejuvenate from your emotional injury before you go out anywhere. If you just rush out into the scene without taking time to relax and mediate with the
Four of Swords, you'll be in a fowl mood and the
Knight of Swords reversed shows that you might do more than just put your foot in your mouth. Scorpions are well known for their sting, as Scorpio's are known for their tongue lashings - so be careful what you unleash onto those around you and don't assume that anyone is purposely trying to goad you. It looks like things are going to go much better as the night goes on, though you'll feel like your doing a hundred things at once. And that's because you are! You're very popular tonight and if you're not the big cheese running the
4/20 show, you're the assistant to the big cheese, which means you get the credit, the social time and the pleasure of being able to say you did it all.
SAGITTARIUS
You're significant other, business partner, friend or father figure has you feeling a little out of sorts. The
reversed King of Swords recommends that you give this person some space to transform into a better version of themselves. Though while you're waiting for them to make the change, the
Star is up to bat for you, making sure you have enough energy to see you through the tough times and into the vibrant waters of your chosen
4/20 celebrations. Just be careful not to spend to much, as the
reversed Ace of Pentacles says that it will leave you dry for funds over the weekend and you need to make things last.
