With Mars in Virgo and a Full Moon in Aquarius, you might find the greatest pleasure, progress, and fulfilment comes from doing good for others this week.

Take a step away from your own burdens and issues and look to see the difference you can make for someone else. A change is as good as a rest!

We can all see other people’s ‘stuff’ more clearly and dispassionately than our own. I’m not saying you should interfere, but you can offer your presence, company, empathy, sympathy, or even practical support. Whatever works.

Let the tarot guide you towards how you can make a difference this week.

Aries

March 21 to April 20

Tarot card for Aries for this week: Seven of Wands

Meaning: You are a born fighter, a competitor, an alpha, an apex predator! Aries is fuelled by Mars, the god of war. The Seven of Wands reveals you can be someone’s ‘corner man’ this week, someone who is not a natural fighter and could do with your positivity, encouragement, and backing.

Go give their rivals or foes hell. Go make them stand up for themselves. Go cheerlead for them and help them take this stand. They will never, ever forget you were there when they needed a champ by their side.

Taurus

April 21 to May 21

Tarot card for Taurus for this week: Five of Coins

Meaning: Grief comes in waves, sometimes years and decades after the event itself. The Five of Coins shows that someone in your close circle is going to grieve this week and feel really low, isolated, and like this might never end for them.

Show up and tell them you care, you notice, you want to sit with them and maybe even do something nice together. Help them change their mood, process their feelings, and be okay with carrying on. Be a rock.

Gemini

May 22 to June 21

Tarot card for Gemini for this week: Two of Swords

Meaning: Someone you know, and love or like, is facing a big decision and has become paralysed by it, and they need your sharp and agile mind to help them fathom out what they are going to do.

The Two of Swords asks you to bring your mental A-game to this issue. Be shrewd, probing, innovative, and practical. Ask questions, bounce ideas about. Don’t pressurise, though, as you need to let them process the new info and ideas. Help them come to a conclusion and have confidence in their choice.

Cancer

June 22 to July 23

Tarot card for Cancer for this week: Six of Wands

Meaning: Celebrate a success! In fact, be the town crier of success this week for all and sundry. Notice the achievements logged and the struggles overcome amongst your circle in the previous year and let them know you think they’re awesome. Buy treats, send cards, call to say you applaud them, have a party, go out for fun.

The Six of Wands asks you to be the HQ of celebration world for others this week and, in doing so, you will attract more of your own successes and joy. Good karma builds and spreads.

Leo

July 24 to August 23

Tarot card for Leo for this week: Death

Meaning: Change is scary for most people but you have a natural resilience to it because you’re innately optimistic and confident that things will turn out well. Take this energy to someone close by who is going through big changes. They are anxious, worried, and tentative about what lies ahead.

Lend them your positive outlook, help them see the silver linings, support their practical efforts to deal with the consequences, encourage them to keep going because the rewards will be worthwhile. Death means someone is enduring a transformation.

Virgo

August 24 to September 23

Tarot card for Virgo for this week: Queen of Wands

Meaning: You bring positive momentum to whatever you focus your energies on because you are proactive, practical, and can-do! Use this power to help someone get ‘unstuck’ who seems to have fallen into a rut.

The Queen of Wands asks you to make this process fun, lively, engaging… not like a drudge or a task. Create a game around it, make the tasks mini challenges, pitch some rewards. Little by little, you can inch them out of the pit and back onto the path. They will be so grateful when they realise what you did!

Libra

September 24 to October 23

Tarot card for Libra for this week: The World

More: Trending

Meaning: Endings are tricky things to navigate because there’s often some sadness or regret, and a little bit of trepidation for what will come next. Libra, you are a wonderful diplomat, analyst, and cheerleader. Please use this special gifts to help someone you know who is facing an ending.

The World reveals it’s actually the embryo of a new beginning and perhaps that is the message you can impart to them. Look ahead, be positive, make plans, see the future potential. It might help you face an ending of your own too.

Scorpio

October 24 to November 22

Tarot card for Scorpio for this week: Knight of Wands

Meaning: Knights are extremes embodying the purest version of their suit’s traits – here that means adventurousness, spontaneity, vitality, and gusto! Bring those traits to bear with those around you who seem a little wearied or bored or frustrated. Even if you have to fake it ’til you make it.

The Knight of Wands will bring you what you need. Sometimes people need to have a mood recalibration by being around someone with higher, lighter, brighter energy. That person, this week, is you! It’s going to feel energising and good.

Sagittarius

November 23 to December 21

Tarot card for Sagittarius for this week: Two of Cups

Meaning: Pay close attention to your partner, lover, child, best friend, or closest colleague- someone you are in cahoots with and in tune with. This person needs support this week.

The Two of Cups shows you’re in the best spot to offer this help and strength and empathy. You can help them get through it, deal with stuff, and still feel okay and on top of things along the way. You can lend them both your sense of fun and adventure, as well as your deep-thinking and philosophical powers.

Capricorn

December 22 to January 21

Tarot card for Capricorn for this week: Ace of Swords

Meaning: Truth. It’s important, it’s game-changing, it’s hurtful, it’s necessary. Honest dialogue is the theme tune of this week ahead with the cutting Ace of Swords. It’s likely that people you know will encounter some home truths this week and they might not like them too much.

Be there to listen, to encourage, and to offer comfort. Truth needs comfort and hope to help counter its damage. We all have to absorb it and then we deal with it… and eventually, we’re glad for it!

Aquarius

January 22 to February 19

Tarot card for Aquarius for this week: King of Swords

Meaning: You literally are the King of Swords, you are a a ruthlessly objective and analytical thinker who can problem-solve and ideate in equally brilliant measures. You are great at planning out the right future moves necessary to achieve a goal or ambition.

Lend this skill to someone who is floundering in their life this week, be like a consultant helping them see their goals, clarify them, find the right tactics and get a plan in place. You love using your sharp mind, so use it to make a really powerful difference to someone’s future.

Pisces

February 20 to March 20

Tarot card for Pisces for this week: Eight of Wands

Meaning: Put yourself in the matrix! By that I mean be everywhere. Be communicative. Network. Reach out and spread yourself around your friends, colleagues, and acquaintances. Aim to make contact with as many people as possible. Skim your circle.

The Eight of Wands is a demand to be visible and in contact with others, someone (who you don’t expect) needs your friendly, warm, caring self to be close by. It’s only by ‘doing the rounds’ that you’ll discover this and be able to help.
