Ready to make waves?
Uranus retrograde begins on the 28th in the Fixed sign of Taurus, slowing down our roll and demanding that we make peace with changes that have already happened in our lives for now.
After that, the Full Moon in Pisces on the 30th will help us release and clear everything we’ve been holding in our hearts (and maybe make room for something new).
Finally, Venus will end retrograde as this planet of love and beauty goes direct on the 3rd. From start to finish, we’ve had a few notable astrological events this week that can seriously help us chart new paths for our future, if we’re willing to go with the flow and get started.
With that in mind, let’s take a look at the advice the Tarot has to offer you as you go along.
Your sign’s weekly tarotscope for August 28 – September 3, 2023
Ram
King of wands
Ram has the world in their hands…or at least that’s how it feels this week!
The King of Wands is smart, sassy and ready to lead and take action (much like Aries on a good day). You feel like yourself again and it’s finally time to grab what you want and go after it.
Stand up for yourself, strike up a compelling conversation, make a bold decision, brave a new adventure, or perhaps channel this energy into a creative project.
The choice is yours!
Taurus
7 of cups (inverted)
Taurus must remember that sometimes there is not always a ‘right answer’.
The 7 of Cups inverted hints indicate that this week you tend to overthink and get lost in your own imagination.
While there are a billion different ways you can proceed, that doesn’t mean you have to land on a single “right” choice. Life is not always that simple when the universe presents you with a number of options with an outcome that may or may not succeed.
So just keep in mind that you are making it a choice is sometimes better than trying to find the ‘right one’.
Twin
3 wands (reversed)
Twin wants to move forward, but may feel hindered in their progress.
With the three wands flipped, you feel like you’re waiting for everything to come together so you can take the right steps forward, but it also feels like something is always holding you back.
You might feel like your patience can’t last forever, and some Gemini might also wonder if there’s actually something waiting for you on the horizon.
While this period of waiting may seem like stagnation, remember that sometimes an inadvertent rest and planning period is just what we need to prepare.
Cancer
2 of wands
Cancerare you ready to face the sunset with some new action plans.
The 2 of Wands is a positive omen for new opportunities, planning for the future and setting yourself up for success. This card is great for travel, new creative ambitions and entrepreneurial desires.
With the energy of a Full Moon at your disposal, this week will be a productive time for setting intentions for Cancer.
What do you plan to use this powerful energy for?
Lion
7 wands (reversed)
LionIt is not always the intention that you do it alone.
This week, the 7 of Wands Reversed asks you to slow down and set aside at least a few tasks. You are an ambitious and driven soul, but sometimes you bite more than you can chew.
While it may not go along with your overwhelming desire to get through tough times all alone, this time you may need to be willing to ask for help.
We could all use a little rest day… and yes, even the wild, cheeky lion too.
Virgin
5 of Pentacles
Virginwe all go through hard times sometimes.
This week it’s your turn with the 5 of Pentacles on the table for you. This card predicts cloudy skies, especially in the areas of finance, career, and the family.
While not all Virgos will literally suffer a tangible loss, you still can feeling a hole is growing in this part of your life, as if something is just missing.
However, remember that having space somewhere just means there’s more room to create something new.
Scale
The Hermit (reverse)
Scale still slowly coming out of the hermit phase.
Last week you pulled yourself out of trouble. This week, you’re still on the learning curve of remembering how to live without it just now loneliness.
While Libras are known for their social tendencies, you’re also a pretty big thinker. This card is asking you to pull yourself out of your own head now too, so you can interact more directly with the world around you.
Scorpion
5 of Swords
Scorpion is facing a somewhat ferocious energy this week.
The 5 of Swords isn’t exactly a friendly sight to behold. You may be dealing with difficult people, lies and even betrayal, or people who cheat to get ahead. Some of these actions may also be more covert in nature.
The key, of course, is to adapt to these circumstances, without getting sucked into the madness. Keep the witty and sharp aspects of this card, but remove the evil intent and less appetizing actions.
Archer
King of Pentacles (reversed)
Archeryou don’t have everything under control.
When the King of Pentacles is inverted, it can indicate an overwhelming desire to be in control of your own possessions, finances, and career path. You may be overly fixated on your material plans and stability.
This concern about what to do now in this area of your life is human and understandable. It’s important to work through it instead of trying to get around it.
Nor can we know everything or feel safe about everything all the time. Remember, you can only control… what you can control.
Ibex
Ace of Wands (reversed)
This week, Ibex may not even know where to start.
The Ace of Wands is usually a beacon of light and inspiration for new ambitions, creative projects and entrepreneurial ideas.
However, reversing this card can feel like setbacks, burnout, and the anxiety that sometimes comes from not knowing where to start.
And while this is a frustrating energy to work through, the productive and problem-solving Capricorn is absolutely capable of it.
Aquarius
9 of Pentacles
Time to enjoy the fruits of your abundance, Aquarius.
The 9 of Pentacles indicates that it took a long time for you to enjoy yourself instead of just working and toiling.
Now that it’s time for some quality time for yourself, consider planning at least one day for self-care and relaxation. And don’t think about what might be good for others or for the world right now.
What to do you want to do, Aquarius?
Fishing
5 of cups (inverted)
Fishingyou try to move on to bigger and better things.
While the 5 of Cups may indicate dissatisfaction and rumination over uncomfortable emotions, the past, and past losses, the reversal indicates that you are ready to take new steps.
It’s not always easy to just “move on” and rid yourself of the past. However, this week certainly seems to be a productive week to do so for Pisces.
