The first of our weekly zodiac tarot readings feels very rooted in matters of money and career. Whatever card represents you, remember that we shape our own fortunes. Work hard and be financially responsible, and things will always improve.
Aries (March 21 - April 19)
The World
Good news for Aries as we draw The World; a card that represents fulfillment and personal achievement. Perhaps you're about to land the promotion you've been working towards, or you're buying a new house. Perhaps you're getting married or having a baby. It could be something as simple as finding a new hobby that will change things for you. Whatever it is, it's certainly a time for celebration.
Taurus (April 20 - May 20)
Five of Pentacles (Reversed)
Taureans can breathe a sigh of relief as they note that their hardships are finally coming to an end. Your hard work has become fruitful, and if you have been struggling with health issues, note that you are well on your way to recovery. The hardest part of your journey is over and things can only improve from now.
Gemini (May 21 - June 20)
The Moon (Reversed)
Things are not always as they seem for Gemini. You've been struggling through a period of deep anxiety and most of the time you can't work out whether or not your fears are warranted. You may be feeling a lot of emotions at once, but you have to face these head on. You may also find that your dreams are somewhat prophetic at the moment.
Cancer (June 21 - July 22)
The Star
Things are going well for Cancer. The Star represents serenity and progress. After a difficult start to the year you may find things improving from here on in. You have a positive outlook on life and a renewed faith in what's to come. Indeed, for now, there's no need to worry.
Leo (July 23 - August 22)
Seven of Pentacles (Reversed)
As a Leo, it's pretty tough when things aren't going your way. Quite unlike Taurus' tarot, your hard work will result in disappointment. But failure is never an option for you, so we feel confident that you will take this time to reassess your situation. Whatever you do, it's important that you don't give up.
Virgo (August 23 - September 22)
Ten of Swords
If only we had better news for Virgo. You worry a lot and, unfortunately, this time your worries are justified. Expect a great betrayal to come your way that could spell an inevitable ending to something you once cherished deeply. It's going to be painful, but ultimately you need to take this experience and learn from it. Things can only get better.
Libra (September 23 - October 22)
Ten of Wands (Reversed)
If you're feeling burdened by a problem, Libra, it may be time to share the load. Be it a professional or personal matter, a problem shared is a problem halved; indeed, you're putting your health and well-being at risk by allowing things to get on top of you, and thus things will only get harder if you continue to try and do everything on your own.
Scorpio (October 23 - November 21)
The Hermit
Being a Scorpio can be hard work when your relationships with people are so intense. Thus, it's high time for a period of solitude and inner reflection; a pilgramage of sorts. Perhaps take a vacation and take some time for yourself. Peace and quiet is just what the doctor ordered.
Sagittarius (November 22 - December 21)
Four of Pentacles (Reversed)
You're going to be experiencing a lot of financial anxiety this week, Sagittarius. Perhaps you're struggling to save for something important, or else you've found yourself putting material matters too high on your list of priorities. Remember that money isn't everything and take this time to draw up a budget you can stick to.
Capricorn (December 22 - January 19)
Ace of Pentacles (Reversed)
Capricorn may be facing a lot of financial uncertainty at this time. You're unsure of whether or not you should take up a potentially lucrative opportunity, or you're in danger of putting all your eggs in one basket. Be responsible with your money, and don't rely too heavily on your optimism that your situation will improve.
Aquarius (January 20 - February 18)
Knight of Wands (Reversed)
You may be feeling a creative block right now, Aquarius. While you know what you want to channel your creativity into, there are obstacles in your way which is causing a lot of frustration. It's time for re-assessment, and remember that it's OK to take your time. You need to make sure you're still enjoying whatever you're doing.
Pisces (February 19 - March 20)
Queen of Wands
Pisceans are often selfless and compassionate, and Queen of Wands represents similar sentiments. You find yourself a very sociable person right now, and a loyal friend to everyone. Your warmth and charisma is inspiring to all, but don't be afraid to let them see your darker side too. People want to know the real you.
