I have chosen a card for each sun sign which represents the energy around you that you have to work with for the month. Some cards have more to say than others, but I have tried to get to the core of the issue for each sign. To see what these cards look like, please check out the tarot section on this site and then look up the particular card referred to for you for the month. You may also combine the signs using your sun sign, Ascendant and moon signs for a more in depth look at your month ahead.
Reversed cards are used for timing purposes and perhaps to indicate a bit of a challenge in obtaining the subtleties of the card. They mean that the energy will happen in the second half of the month in this particular forecast and that you must overcome some of the challenges before you achieve your goals for the month.
Aries
I chose The Seven of Swords Reversed for you this month. This card represents divided energy. You want to help everyone so you constantly volunteer your time or listen to those who seek your help without thinking of yourself and your plans. This is a card that indicates you are stuck in the past by helping others, but you really want to move forward to handle your own issues and goals. You tend to be a bit of a sucker (too giving, caring, loving, kind, generous and honest, etc.) and are trying to be more secure and focused in all that you do; however, you just don’t know how to say “no” and as a consequence you do not have time for yourself, your plans, your family and friends. Hide your compassion as best you can or only help those who truly need your help and stop enabling everyone else! The reversed position means you know this has to change, but it will take a lot of determination and persistence to accomplish this goal. Be strong and think of receiving instead of giving!
Taurus
I chose The Ten of Swords for you this month. This card’s energy is one of needing to relax and rejuvenate your energy. You have recently dealt with the most outrageous things in life but now it is at an end. The worst is over and you are contemplating your next moves. In which direction do you want to go? Emotions are calm now and opportunities abound, but you have to make the decision to take whichever opportunities you feel are in your best interest. You are using your intelligence, like the dawn, to remove the negativity and depression away from you. You are now on solid ground, facing the right direction (the future!) and just need to focus your life, your goals and objectives one by one until they become a reality.
Gemini
I chose The Knight of Wands Reversed for you this month. This card’s energy represents that you are too scattered and your energy is waning. You lack rest, sleep and/or meditation. You need some direction and apparently it is not in the many directions you are going. There are many procrastination issues ahead of you and you are facing them so it seems as if you agree, but don’t know what to do about them. You are wearing armor so are protecting yourself against whatever you feel is your enemy. Wands represent your health, job, and schooling (formal education or lectures, seminars, workshops, etc., even if you are presenting them!). Your feet are not planted firmly on the ground and you need to make more definite plans for the future soon. This is a health issue warning card which means that if you don’t take care of yourself, you will find yourself with health issues such as more colds, the flu, insomnia, immune system concerns and disorders, asthma, allergies and possibly bronchitis and pneumonia. Take care of yourself so that this does not happen.
The reversed position means you know you have to calm down, lighten up, settle down, take it easy, let go of things making you crazy, take in some entertainment and learn or practice some relaxation techniques; however, you complain that you just don’t have the time! What’s wrong with this picture?(From a Feng Shui point of view – are all of your clocks and watches working properly. If not, that’s why you just don’t have the time).
Cancer
I chose The Ten of Pentacles Reversed for you this month. This card’s energy represents money issues and concerns. You may be seeing your financial security from a different perspective than your significant other, partner or family member. You seem to have many issues with money and are seemingly overwhelmed by the prospect of not having enough to pay for everything. Take one step at a time and organize your finances to see in how much debt you truly are and then start making a positive plan to pay these debts off. Know that there are family members and/or friends who have your best interest at heart and would gladly lend you money if you ask them. You are being protected with loyalty of family and friends so your peace of mind about your future should be very positive, although you are in a worrying stage of life at the moment. Be more positive and know that things will be changing soon.
The reversed position means you know this has to change and are trying to handle your money issues but are unsure of how to start. Write down your credit card and house (and other) bills so that you see what you have to do and start paying them off a little at a time until you feel more in control of your finances. Buy what you need and not what you want now and stop using credit cards; pay for purchases in cash or do not make the purchase at all.
Leo
I chose The Empress for you this month. This card’s energy represents Mother Energy. This is the perfect mother card. You handle everything for everyone and not just your family. People feel comfortable telling you secrets because they know you will keep their information private. They trust you more than many other people and always seek your counsel. However, you need to get more focused on your own issues and handle them as if you were handling someone else’s concerns. You never make yourself first, which is very sad. If you don’t make yourself first, who will? You have much spiritual knowledge and wisdom and use it to help others, but again, rarely listen to your own good advice because you are too busy with everyone else’s lives! Focus on your goals and objectives for a change. Also, this may be a time when you have to handle upsetting news from your family or those you consider family, but as usual, you will handle it with confidence and ease. Balance the sucker energy around you with a little more assertiveness. Set and use boundaries.
Virgo
I chose The Fool Reversed for you this month. This card’s energy represents moving in a new direction with new beginnings, journeys, hopes, wishes, path, ventures and objectives. You are leaving the past behind and trying to make a bright new future, even if you are not quite sure where that will lead you. You have loyalty of family and friends around you and the spirituality and enlightenment from Above shining down on you. Sucker energy is still with you and sometimes you tend to be too gullible, vulnerable, innocent and naïve; not everyone is as honest as you so don’t believe everything others have to say. Procrastination is slowly diminishing and you see a bright new future filled with your logical and intellectual decisions and options before you. Emotions should be kept under wraps since if you use your emotions to make decisions, they will be the wrong decisions.
The reversed position means you know this has to change, but it will take much determination and persistence to accomplish this goal. You need to look out for yourself and leave others behind; if you can do this, you will have a happier future filled with love, peace and mind and happiness.
Libra
I chose The Star card for you this month. This card’s energy represents that you are being too vulnerable, innocent, naïve and gullible in emotional matters. You have your foot in the water meaning that you are causing your own emotional issues and concerns and you are facing in the wrong direction. You are making matters worse for yourself by procrastinating and not making a positive decision about your future. It seems you would rather just think about your issues than handle them, so this is a real problem. There are many decisions hanging over your head, but you are able to make the most important one with logic and intelligence rather than emotion, then you will start going in the right direction. Also, taking an emotional risk would be a good start to get you out of this very negative situation and environment. If this risk is to leave a relationship or deal with family issues that are very emotional, than so be it. Do something positive!
Scorpio
I chose The Eight of Cups Reversed for you this month. This card’s energy represents that you feel there is something missing in your life. It’s an energy that makes you see things in so many perspectives that you really don’t know what the right way to deal with issues are any more. You see what you want to see and hear what you want to hear, but it may not always be the truth. You are antsy and want more fun, attention, love, happiness, accomplishments and possessions. You may feel that you are not getting these things in your current relationship so you start looking elsewhere to get what you need. Just be aware that once you cross the line, there is no going back. Being flamboyant, assertive and passionate about your life is wonderful, but just be sure that you discuss your thoughts and desires with your significant other so that they are not left out in the cold. If you do not have a partner/significant other at this time, that may be the part of your life that you feel is missing terribly. You may want an old love back or you are so confused about your future that you just don’t know exactly what you want at this time, but you know it’s not here now.
The reversed position means you know this has to change, but it will take a lot of determination and persistence to accomplish this goal. You will have to re-examine why you feel this way and start having ideas as to how to accomplish your goals in a positive way without hurting another’s feelings or betraying the ones you love..
Sagittarius
I chose The Nine of Cups for you this month. This card’s energy represents that you are totally satisfied with what you have now. The travel, fun, education and classes are doing well and you have not felt this good in a long time. Everything in love, happiness, prosperity and joy, inner peace, guidance, strength, wisdom and knowledge is there for the taking. You are now balancing your emotional and intellectual lives in such a way that you are almost totally free from upset and turmoil. You are protecting this energy and that of your family from outsiders because you feel they need protection in some way. You are speaking up perhaps more than you should, but you are standing up for your beliefs. You may still have that sucker energy around you now; however, you allow people to take advantage of you up to a certain point and now are strong enough to enforce your boundaries and limitations. This is a very positive time, so go after whatever you need to accomplish as the energies are with you.
Capricorn
I chose The Ten of Cups for you this month. This card’s energy represents the happiness ever after card. Everything works out well for you, your loved ones and family. This is truly a card that says you will be on equal footing with your significant other/partner and that emotions are calming down, prosperity and abundance are at least status quo (but usually doing very well) and you are on a very solid foundation for this month. You are happy and thankful that everything is going well. There is clear sailing, harmony and peace ahead of you and if problems and concerns come up this month, they will be resolved rather quickly and easily. You are ready with open arms to accept love, help, happiness and total joy into your life and with those you love. Children/grandchildren will be blessed and protected from any adversity and you will be the one to help them through any confusion or issues. On the whole, this is a lovely month for all of your dreams coming true.
Aquarius
I chose The Tower for you this month. This card’s energy represents the rug being pulled out from under you so you can get rid of all the leftover trash in your life and start in a new direction. You will be surprised at the change or the unexpected outcomes of things going on in your life, but it’s the universe’s way of trying to get you on the proper path. Leave the negative behind and find the positive road ahead. You are being blessed as you change direction, even though you may feel as if it is the most upsetting thing that could happen to you – this is basically a time to just “go with the flow.” You will figure out what you are supposed to do at the end of this adventure. Just handle your normal monthly business and see what happens. Bright new beginnings should start being attracted to you as you move forward in a positive direction. New jobs, undertakings, people and experiences are being brought to you day by day. Learn from them and then just decide which ones you need to keep and which ones you need to learn from and must let go.
Pisces
I chose The Eight of Pentacles Reversed for you this month. This card’s energy represents working too hard and not having much fun in your life right now. You are even looking to expand by either starting a home based business or more revenue by trying something new. You are on the road to exhaustion if you don’t watch out for yourself. Rest, take care of yourself and let yourself have some fun. You need to lighten up. Work is not all that there is. As you continue to make more money and make plans for the future, your family is suffering since they don’t see you as much and they know your attention and focus is not on them. You need to balance the many aspects of your life right now so that you will have a successful personal and business life. You need to reach out to your family and make plans with them. They want to be in your life so much, but are afraid to bother you.
The reversed position means you know this has to change, but it will take a lot of determination and persistence to accomplish this goal. Balance your life, make the time for those you love and enjoy some of your hobbies. At the end of your life, it will be terrible if all they can say about you was, “He was a hard worker” rather than a good father/mother or husband/wife.
