Hello, Scorpio Season!
This transformative, powerful, and emotionally attuned zodiac season begins on the 23rd and kicks off our week. But we’re sure this astrological event is one that most of us could have predicted.
What else? Well, we’ll also have the opportunity for financial and material breakthroughs in the form of the lunar eclipse in Taurus on the 28th. Say goodbye to blocks and obstacles and hello to an honest check-in with what you really want.
In order to make optimal use of this energy, we have the Tarot to see what it has to say about the week ahead.
Your sign’s weekly tarotscope for October 23 – 29, 2023
Ram
The magician
Ramthis week has the potential to be purely magical.
After all, you have The Magician here to guide you. With the light leading the way, you may feel more inspired, more enterprising, and ready for action at this time.
The catch? The Wizard isn’t…well, sort of the magic. It is focused on the person performing the magic for a reason! You have to be open to taking charge and actually harnessing this go-getter spirit so that it can mean something important.
What will you create this week?
Taurus
Justice
Taurusit’s time to find some balance and recalibrate.
This week’s astrological events may generally offer abundance and progress, but for Taurus, that will likely all start with some rethinking.
Justice requires that your thoughts and priorities be in order. You need to have a good handle on what’s really important and make room for those priorities, tangible in your schedules and routines.
Be honest and serious about what matters most right now, and let your mind (not your impulse) guide you to clarity.
Twin
8 of wands
Twin continues its bright, progress-oriented streak this week.
The 8 of Wands gives momentum and a fast pace to everything it touches. If you’re not paying attention, this week can fly by without you even having a chance to process any of it.
Communication, travel and making strong progress in creative projects and new ventures are all strengthened and supported during this time.
Ride that wave, stay open-minded and motivated, and you’ll have a great time, Gemini.
Cancer
The Emperor (reverse)
Cancerthis is not the time for hasty or important decisions.
While The Emperor Reversed may make you want to take charge and bring you into conflict with other authority or leadership figures in your life, that doesn’t mean you have to dramatically seize the throne now.
Alternatively, some Cancers may see this energy reflected in their own insecurities, calling into question their own abilities and self-confidence.
However it ultimately manifests, this is your cue to slow down, listen to your own feelings, and let things settle down before trying something big.
Lion
Ace of Swords (reverse)
Lionit’s time to break through some blocks and barriers… even if they don’t seem very tangible.
The Ace of Swords is usually a good sign for fresh ideas and a clean slate, opening our minds to new possibilities.
But flipping this card can cause blockages, making you suddenly feel like your vision is clouded and complicating your ability to speak up and make decisions.
Finding an outlet that helps you find silence (such as journaling or meditation) can help you break through these blocks.
Virgin
3 cups (inverted)
Virginyour relationships come to the fore… and it’s not all sunshine and rainbows.
The 3 of Cups reversed indicates that miscommunication is increasing this week. It can be harder to feel seen and understood by loved ones, and making new connections (especially in group settings) will be especially difficult.
In times when no one can really see each other’s hearts clearly, it’s best to take a moment to cool down and let the dust settle. There’s no need to force something that isn’t there.
Scale
7 of cups
Scale has some important decisions to make.
With a reputation for indecisiveness, Libras ironically find themselves in exactly the same situation this week.
The 7 of Cups creates misty energy in your heart and intuition, noticing that there may be a variety of options and ideas on the table, but it is seemingly impossible to know which ones to actually pursue.
Remember: sometimes the “right choice” is simply making a choice a choice (rather than sitting in stasis and discomfort).
Scorpion
5 of Swords
Scorpionjust because the world falls into chaos doesn’t mean you have to too.
The 5 of Swords invites the temptation to choose foul play, conflict, and, to be honest, often quite toxic behavior.
You may have an opportunity this week to play dirty, gossip, or gain the upper hand in unsavory ways… but that doesn’t necessarily mean you should take that opportunity.
Remember who you really are in your heart, Scorpio.
Archer
Page with magic wands
Archerit’s time to embrace your silly, youthful and adventurous self.
The Page of Wands is a bright, positive and spontaneous card… just like you, wild archer! This week you are called to release your inner fire and move with what feels good.
This doesn’t mean you have to run completely on impulse, but we do recommend that you loosen up and approach life with a more open and candid approach now.
It should be easy for someone as radiant and adaptable as Sagittarius – all you have to do is connect with a part of yourself that already exists!
Ibex
10 of cups (inverted)
Ibex They are known to have high standards and sometimes live up to truly unattainable expectations.
This week, the reversed 10 of Cups indicates that you may be depriving yourself of satisfaction and joy by placing these types of expectations on yourself.
Remember: This week’s astrological events highlight abundant productivity (through the lunar eclipse) and receptivity to candor and emotional vulnerability (during Scorpio season)
In short, we highly recommend that you use this period to think about what will really make you happy.
Aquarius
2 of Swords (reverse)
Aquarius is ready to face the music… you no longer have to hide in the shadows.
The 2 of Swords reversed can be a lot like ripping off an old band-aid. Everything you previously blinded yourself to is now more visible, and you are no longer willing to ignore important truths.
In the future you choose honesty and vulnerability, even if this means embracing many unknowns. You are ready to be your true self.
Like a chrysalis turning into a butterfly, this is the first phase of a very important transition for Aquarius.
Fishing
Page of Pentacles (reversed)
Fishing, take it easy. A burnout is getting closer.
The Reversed Page of Pentacles reflects a lot of enthusiasm and new ideas for work and career, but you may not have enough resources (whether time, experience, or tools) to get it all done right now.
Instead of moving forward quickly and headfirst, this card is your signal to hold on to those ideas and ambitions without even implementing big plans.
This week is the right week to let them sit and marinate.
