Aries

:aries: Aries

Keep your head up and eyes peeled as you charge into this week, Aries- you’ll need that fiery focus of yours in the days ahead. Emotions are running high and may be hard to keep hold of, which is further fuelled by the moon being far away in your opposition sign, Libra. It’s going to be harder than usual for you to get a read on others, and if you loosen the grip on the reins of your own emotions, they’re likely to lead you off course. Look out for someone who is lying or trying to slip something beneath your radar and be sure you know all the details before signing up for anything new or making new contracts. Rather than try to branch out and make new connections or arrangements, it’s better to stick to those you trust this week.

Tarot Card : Knight of Cups, Reversed

Taurus

:taurus: Taurus

As The Bull of the Zodiac, you are naturally sturdy and strong and know how to stand your ground. But sometimes that dedication can sink into a stubbornness that holds you back- which is the case for you this week, Taurus. Circumstances have been pushing against you and you’ve been doing your best to plod along, but now things have ground to a halt. It’s frustrating, absolutely, but this isn’t the time to stick your head in the mud and wallow- you still have power! Keep your eyes open, your head up, and look at the things you can control. You can make it through this, too.

Tarot Card : Eight of Swords

Gemini

:gemini: Gemini

Look to the new moon early this week, Gemini- she brings the end of one cycle and the beginning of the next. It’s a gift of fresh energy in abundance, for you, Gemini! This week is ripe with potential and you are currently standing on the precipice of many exciting new things- look out for new purchases, gifts, and changes in health. Whether these things turn into lasting blessings, stressful inconveniences, or passed opportunities, however, relies on the decisions you make over the coming days. Luckily, you have the clever mind of an Air Element sign- dig in and rely on your past experiences to guide your decision-making. There was a big red flag between you and your opposite in the Zodiac last week, but this week you might be surprised to find opposites attracting- Sagittarius is trotting along on a very similar road to you. If you’re looking for companionship or to swap ideas, The Archer will be a good match for you this week.

Tarot Card : Ace of Pentacles

Cancer

:cancer: Cancer

This week is both a farewell and a fresh start for you, Cancer. Monday finds the beautiful moon, your ruling planet, at home again in your sign. As a New Moon, she brings fresh, clean energy and all the possibilities of a new cycle. On Sunday, you will say goodbye to the sun, who is leaving your sign and bringing Cancer season to a close- with both the end of the moon cycle and the end of your Zodiac season, it is time for you to look back and reflect in order to move forward. Look at the things you have been carrying over the past month or so and acknowledge which things are better left in the past- are there any grudges left steeping? Forgivenesses that haven’t been said? Tasks left unaccomplished? This week, be your own judge and do what needs to be done. With your closure found, you’ll be perfectly set up to enter the new cycle with a clean slate, clear consciousness, and a mind open to bright new possibilities.

Tarot Card : Judgement

Leo

:leo: Leo

It’s a happening week for you, Leo- get ready for a big transition! From Tuesday to Thursday look to the moon, who is coming into your sign freshly rejuvenated from her time as a New Moon on Monday. In your sign she begins to grow as a waxing moon- the start of a fresh new cycle. On Saturday, the lovely Venus will go retrograde in your sign, causing you to see things in a new light as facades fade away and reveal what truly lies beneath a pretty exterior- be aware that a situation you are involved in or a person you are involved with is not what they seem to be. This can be painful to realize- lies are pretty, while the truth is a hard pill to swallow. Trying to close your eyes and be blind to it won’t work, however, as halfway through the weekend, the sun will burst through your doors and return to you. The fiery energy and clear light of your ruling planet will help pierce through any darkness or illusion you are fighting against. The moon, sun, and Venus are all on your side this week, Leo- although it may be hard, let them help you see the light. Do not let anyone blindside or lead you astray- show them that the mighty heart of the Lion is stronger than they know!

Tarot Card : Eight of Cups

Virgo

:virgo: Virgo

Fortune smiles upon you this week, Virgo! Things are aligning in wonderful ways for you over the coming days- blessed by the energy of abundance and prosperity, your nature as an Earth sign is flourishing. Expect projects you have been working on to move along at a good pace and don’t be surprised if you catch others looking your way- you positively radiate success, joy, and stability. This glow is further enhanced by the lovely moon coming to visit your sign from Thursday to the middle of the weekend- as a waxing crescent moon, she brings you the energy of growth and potential. Count your blessings this week and find ways to show appreciation for what you have- when you see others looking up to you, consider extending the hand of generosity- sharing what you have will cause your blessings to grow even more.

Tarot Card : King of Pentacles

Libra

:libra: Libra

The new moon on Monday brings the end of a cycle in the skies and the end of one phase in your life, Libra. As the skies go dark, it is time for you to look at the things you have been holding onto and weigh them on your scales- what is worth fighting for? What is ready to be laid to rest? Some decisions are harder than others and change can be painful, but ridding yourself of problems now will save you from significant strife in the future. Look to the skies at the end of the week when the moon returns to your sign on Sunday. Although small as a waxing crescent, she comes with gentle love and reassurance- with the past behind you, good things are growing and there is potential on the horizon.

Tarot Card : Death

Scorpio

:scorpius: Scorpio

Approach this week with caution, Scorpio- you’ve been working hard on your passions and projects lately and with your focus elsewhere, things outside of your awareness have slipped into motion. There’s trouble brewing beneath the surface and a lot is going on that you are going to have to carefully work through in order to avoid a big and potentially catastrophic fallout. Do not approach problems with aggression and avoid physical confrontation- instead, rely on your innate ability to connect with the emotions of those around you and your skill for reading between the lines. Consider being a bit loose with your purse this week when trying to get what you want- a little good-hearted bribery can help to open lips and will likely help you find the answers and honesty you need to keep the peace.

Tarot Card : Seven of Swords, Reversed (Sub: Four of Swords, The Tower, Strength Reversed, Four of Pentacles Reversed)

Sagittarius

:sagittarius: Sagittarius

The funk of last week has faded away and the road ahead is bright and clear- get ready for opening doors this week, Sagittarius! The moon has just hit the restart button, and as she begins her new cycle this is a period of possibility and new beginnings for you too. Last week, your opposing sign in the cycle was also your greatest opposition, but this week you might be surprised to find opposites attracting. Gemini is walking the same road as you are- if you choose to reach out and connect with the communicative Twins, your social circle is sure to benefit from the bond. Keep an eye out for all of the new chances and opportunities coming your way- if any catch your eye, kick that fiery nature of yours into high gear and charge ahead. Opportunities are a blessing and these doors won’t remain open for long!

Tarot Card : Ace of Pentacles

Capricorn

:capricorn: Capricorn

Lift up your head, Capricorn! As the ruling sign of the Tenth House, you hold domain over the House of Status- you have a lot of drive and your nature as an Earth sign pushes you to achieve great things. This is wonderful during periods of productivity, but during periods of rest (and we all need periods of rest- even the ambitious Sea Goat!), you’re more prone than others to fall into self-doubt. This week, be mindful of when you compare yourself to others- is it really a fair comparison? You have your great qualities too, Capricorn! Rest assured that your problems are not anywhere near as bad as your mind is painting them to be. Make time for your hobbies, don’t shy away from opportunities to pamper yourself, and remember that people like regardless of your current status at work, school, or at home. You’re a lovable soul, Capricorn- don’t forget it!

Tarot Card : Page of Cups, Reversed

Aquarius

:aquarius: Aquarius

You are smart and creative, Aquarius- but not all of the answers you need can be found within yourself this week. Over the coming days, you’ll benefit most from thinking outside of the box and not shying away from opening new doors. You have dominion over the Eleventh House of Community and it’s time for you to step forward and embrace the side of you that yearns for connection and companionship. Your mind is a truly marvelous place full of gifts- so come out and share your talents with the world! This is not the time to head home early and hide in your own space- instead, accept the invitations coming your way and make time to spend with your friends and family. If you do, you’ll find yourself gaining the wisdom and knowledge you need for your next big breakthrough.

Tarot Card : Four of Swords, Reversed

Pisces

:pisces: Pisces

There is a lot of energy around you, Pisces, and it’s going to be a week with plenty to keep you occupied! Just remember to take it slow- there’s no need to rush through the coming days. When things go well, take a moment to appreciate them. When things go unexpected or don’t play out like you were hoping for, don’t try to push or force them- take a step back and observe the whole picture before making your move. You may get the sense that others aren’t giving you the recognition you deserve- but it’s hard for others to recognize someone who doesn’t recognize themselves. Take the time this week to write a list of your best traits and accomplishments. Look back on the good things and know that, with time, you will have many more wonderful things to add to your list. You are a deep and wonderful soul, Pisces- be mindful and enjoy the coming week!

Tarot Card : Temperance, Reversed (Sub: Six of Wands, Reversed)

Me, before reading my horoscope: Please be nice, please be nice… :crossed_fingers:

Me, after reading my horoscope: (╯°▔°)╯︵ ┻━┻

I don’t need more problems :sweat_smile: this whole month has been all not nice cards with one good one. I’m thankful for the heads-up, though. That’s always appreciated!

@MeganB… Same girl… now I’m like… soooo… how does the appointment situation look this week? Only 1? So I can stay in my house the rest of the time & keep my phone on Do Not Disturb… Honestly… I was on a pretty good roll & just about to call people I haven’t talked to in weeks… seems like that may have to wait :rofl:

I appreciate the heads up, I really do, but at this point after the latter part of my week… I may try to sleep through this one :joy:

Its just another bump in the road. You handle Sooo much all the time this is just ā€œnormalā€. Be wary, always wary, but assured in your abilities. :people_hugging:

Follow the practice of ā€œWu Weiā€, which is not the lack of doing, but the following the path of least resistance. Kind of daoist instead of craft, but sometimes the mundane is enough. :pray:

haha yes, it might be time to wait on that! :joy: Let’s hope it isn’t too bad for us Scorpios! :clap: :scorpius:

You know what, you’re right! :muscle: I have to remember that I do so much, and being busy or frazzled is just normal for me sometimes! I’m sure that things will calm down soon - I just have to keep going and keep putting in the work!

I’ve never heard of We Wei, but I’m gonna look it up. I try to follow the path of least resistance in general, I think? I don’t know - I’ve honestly never thought about it! :rofl:

In my search for my beliefs I came into many mythologies. Greek, roman, Norse, Celtic and druid, Buddhist, Taoist, Animist…etc. Many I took bits that rang true with me, but many I found lacking in one thing or another. This is one of the bits that I took in my search.

Thank you for that, @Shadeweaver – that’s very helpful! I’ll do some research on it and see how it can be practiced from a witchcraft or Pagan perspective.

Quick note- Some of you may have noticed that a few readings this week have ā€œsubā€ cards- in the case of Pisces, a second card jumped out of the deck so it was considered as well.

When I was drawing for Scorpio a literal stack of cards fell out :upside_down_face: - I have fumbles every now and then when shuffling (lol), but this felt different- it was really pointed. I decided to acknowledge the cards (in order) as sub cards in the reading.


Hahaha I feel this in my soul- why? Why? I don’t know what Scorpios as a collection need to be working through right now, but it has been a bumpy ride lately for sure :joy: Still not as bad as Pisces has been having it, though- for whatever reason, these two signs almost always get the challenges these days.

C’mon, Universe- give us a break! :laughing:

You are always so kind and thoughtful, Shadeweaver- may it be a good week for you! You’ve got this too! :raised_hands: :smiling_face_with_three_hearts:

I am loving this plan of yours Siofra- is July too soon to go into hibernation? I want in on sleeping through the bumpy times too :laughing: :+1: :heart: Wake us up when we get dealt happier cards!

Maybe we just need a collective cleansing or something- get this bad energy out and gone :broom: :laughing:

Hope it’s a good week with minimal stress for you, @LunarEssence!

You deserve all the good vibes and more, Ostara- cheers! :clinking_glasses: May it be a lovely week for you :heart: :blush:

Hopefully, next week or in a few weeks, we can all breathe a collective sigh of relief :sweat_smile: maybe it’s the New Moon in Cancer making everything go all haywire for us? I’m not sure… we need a break, for real!

Ahhh, so you Scorpios and Pisceans are being taught at an advanced rate compared to the rest of us. :sweat_smile: That’s OK, I’m not envious. I have enough to deal with as a baby witch. My head is reelling from all the new stuff. :rofl: :imp: :people_hugging:

The amount of material and areas to explore in magick are just about endless, it can certainly feel overwhelming at any stage of the journey, especially at the start! I think you deserve much more credit- you’re doing amazing, Shadeweaver! :heart: :hugs: :sparkles:
