Your Weekly Tarot Reading for January 15–21: Time to Get Weird!

This week marks the end of practical Capricorn season and the shift into innovative Aquarius season. We can let go of the controlled and pragmatic energy and get ready to get weird, be unique, and march to the beat of our own drums! Just as this unique and visionary sign’s time in the sun begins, we welcome new beginnings and fresh starts via Saturday’s new moon which encourages us to dream big and be proactive with our intentions. The wilder the notion, the better!

Our intuitively pulled Tarot cards remind us to create space for self-reflection leading up to this new moon so if you need more alone time than usual, by all means, take it. How you care for yourself sets the stage for your manifestations.

Read on for this week’s Tarotscopes with insight into your week ahead.

Aries: The Lovers Reversed

Consider your options, Aries. Contemplate your choices carefully this week because now is not the time to be impulsive with your decision-making. It’s quite tempting to jump in and make a move to satisfy your desire for instant gratification, but that could come back to bite you rather quickly. Think more long-term.

Taurus: Nine of Cups Reversed

How do you define success, Taurus? Shifting situations have brought to light a harsh realization that what once made you feel content is no longer working for you. Think of this as a reality check moment to adjust what makes you happy rather than what satisfies others’ expectations of you.

Gemini: Four of Pentacles Reversed

Tighten up your finances, Gemini. When was the last time you looked over your spending habits? If you take the time to get more organized this week, you’ll notice that money is recklessly flying out of your wallet via a little purchase here and there. Curb your impulses, and your savings will grow nearly painlessly.

Cancer: King of Pentacles Reversed

Are you satisfied, Cancer? This week’s circumstances remind you that there is so much more to life than money and how you spend it on the trappings of the material world. It’s nice to treat yourself, but you can indeed indulge in too much of a good thing. Dig a little deeper to discover what’s actually missing.

Leo: Queen of Pentacles Reversed

Put yourself first, Leo. Your self-care must be made a priority this week, even if you feel slightly guilty tending to your own needs over those of others. Not to worry, the people who rely on your generosity will survive even when you focus on your own well-being.

Virgo: Five of Cups Reversed

Talk it out, Virgo. If you feel overwhelmed by your current situation, don’t hesitate to reach out to a trusted friend and share what’s going on with you. Your inner circle is happy to help, but you just need to open up and let them know how you feel.

Libra: Two of Pentacles Reversed

So much to do, so little time, Libra. This week’s to-do list is maxed out with tasks and responsibilities that desperately need your attention. Don’t get stressed. Just get organized and work on the efficiency of your time management so nothing slips through the cracks unnoticed.

Scorpio: The Empress Reversed

Prioritize your own self-care, Scorpio. If you have found yourself so caught up in tending to the needs of others while ignoring your own, this is your week to create some much-needed balance. Perhaps someone else’s issues don’t actually concern you and aren’t actually yours to fix! Focus on your own situation instead.

Sagittarius: The Hermit

Indulge in your alone time, Sagittarius. It’s totally ok to take a break from your busy, jam-packed social calendar, and this week feels like a wonderful time to do so. Stay in and turn off the distractions so you can finally start that meditation practice you have been thinking about as part of your new year’s intentions.

Capricorn: Four of Wands Reversed

Choose your words wisely, Capricorn. The opportunity for miscommunications in your personal relationships is rather high this week so be mindful of what you say and how you say it. This can all be easily avoided because an argument over a minor misunderstanding is not worth it.

Aquarius: Queen of Swords

Can you handle criticism, Aquarius? This is not a personal attack on you, your character, or your work. Let’s think of it more as helpful guidance and insight into your blind spots. Keep an open mind and listen to someone else’s point of view. You could actually glean some valuable information and put it to good use.

Pisces: Nine of Swords Reversed

It’s not as bad as it seems, Pisces. Your stress levels have been rather high lately, mostly due to your workload, but this week promises a much-needed shift in perspective! Expect to make a lot of headway with your obligations and notice how the pressure begins to melt away.
