Brace yourself: an earthly, performance-oriented road awaits you this week.
Amid the down-to-earth and practical Capricorn season itself, the sign of the Goat will make its presence even more known this week, as the New Moon in Capricorn takes place on the 11th.
Additionally, Mercury, the planet of communication and thought, will also move into Capricorn on the 13th, promoting grounded, productive thinking and self-expression.
What does this all mean to you? To answer that question, we have the Tarot.
Your sign’s weekly tarotscope for January 8 – 14, 2024
Ram
King of Pentacles
Ram took the Ace of Pentacles opportunities last week and is holding on to them with great confidence this week.
The King of Pentacles portrays you as grounded, secure, and knowledgeable about what surrounds you, especially in work-related environments.
You have a good understanding of what you can and cannot achieve, and you may even have a good understanding of what others can and cannot achieve (making you quite a valuable leader these days).
Use your power wisely and generously, Aries.
Taurus
Death (reverse)
Resistance to change, Taurus?
The Death card is one of progress, natural change and transition, and the very first seeds of transformation being planted.
Seeing this card reversed indicates that you may not be ready to face these changes because you are unsure of your place in the world and how you really want to respond to them.
But regardless of your resistance, the wheel of fate will always keep turning. Prepare to move forward or be left in the dust.
Twin
8 of cups (inverted)
Twin know something is wrong, but it’s not always easy to validate that feeling.
The 8 of Cups points to a situation where you need to distance yourself from something that seems satisfying at first glance, but does not connect with you intuitively, spiritually and emotionally.
Conversely, you may become stagnant in this position and doubt whether or not you should leave it behind.
It’s important to trust your gut, Gemini. Remember that “logically” seems right, but it is not always the right answer.
Cancer
The Tower (inverted)
CancerThis week, chaos seems to be stirring within.
The reversed Tower can sometimes turn this card’s outward destruction and fit of confusion upside down, indicating inner chaos and discomfort.
The slate is not cleaned on the outside but on the inside. You may have difficulty reconciling the internal changes taking place with the unchanging environment around you.
As uncomfortable as this may be, you must be willing to honor the transformations that are blossoming within you.
Lion
Page with magic wands
Lion appears this week in lively, excitable and truly fiery form.
The Page of Wands brings an abundance of positive, optimistic energy to the table. This is a good week to generate new ideas, travel (near or far) and pursue what feels good.
This is also a strong sign for receiving messages, whether they are spiritual or literal in nature.
Some Leos may have important conversations or receive valuable insights this week – pay attention to what you hear and receive!
Virgin
10 of wands
Virgin is carrying a lot right now…probably a few pounds too much.
The 10 of Wands indicates that you’ve probably bitten off more than you can chew. You have too many ideas, obligations and stressors that weigh you down.
You are certainly strong and capable, but that doesn’t mean you have to do it all alone every time. Just because you can doing something doesn’t mean you have to do it.
This should be a week of rest and remembering the power of the word ‘no’.
Scale
9 of cups
ScaleRest assured, good things are coming when you see the 9 of Cups.
This is a powerful week for manifestation, making wishes, setting intentions – and getting real to believe also in your power.
Literally known as ‘the greeting card’, this card is there to help you fulfill and secure everything you dream of. However, you must have faith in yourself and the power of the universe.
This week, listen to your intuition and your instincts. You’re on the right track.
Scorpion
The lovers
Scorpion are already known for their passionate intensity when it comes to love and romance.
Although you don’t let others in easily… when you do love, you love hard and with fierce loyalty. This week, The Lovers emphasizes the pure, strong energy in your affections and how you give and receive love.
This week may also offer you many different opportunities and choices to show your investments and loyalty, so choose carefully and remember to prioritize what your heart really wants.
Archer
The High Priestess (reverse)
Archerit’s time to go within and listen to what your intuition has to say.
The reversed High Priestess indicates that you may have difficulty listening to your true inner voice this week, feeling disconnected or unsure of the insights you have in your intuition.
It is important to trust what that inner voice says, despite the self-doubt.
It’s reaching out to you and asking to be heard!
Ibex
9 of Pentacles
Ibex is definitely vibrating with the abundance of Capricorn energy in the air right now.
The 9 of Pentacles describes this week as a time of abundance, indicating it’s time to enjoy! You’ve worked hard to cultivate what you have now, but Capricorns aren’t inclined to show off what they have just for fun.
So this week it’s time to take note of all the beauty and joy you’ve created and celebrate it, big or small.
Doing this will help you focus on working harder later, while now you’ll be filled with gratitude and awareness of your abilities.
Aquarius
10 of cups (inverted)
Aquariusthe big dreams are not as far away as they seem.
The 10 of Cups is a card of great emotional fulfillment, the pot of gold at the end of the rainbow. Conversely, you may feel particularly alienated from this energy right now, wondering if you will ever really have that kind of joy in your life.
However, this mundane time of melancholy is not for sulking; instead, you can use this as a period of self-reflection and contemplation about what happiness means to you.
Are the dreams you desire really far away? Or have you created expectations for yourself that are not really, intuitively, yours?
Fishing
5 of cups (inverted)
Fishing No more sulking, wallowing and feeling bad about everything.
Although you’re known as a more emotional type, the 5 of Cups reversed says, “I’m ready to move on.”
The only emotions you’re interested in right now… are the ones you came from new experiences and opportunities and no longer mistakes or losses from the past.
You take your life into your own hands, ready to move on. Kudos to you, Pisces, for taking these important steps to seize your own destiny.
What does your tarotscope really mean?
We wanted to know what this week had in store for us, so we looked to the stars and maps for answers.
Now the question remains… how can you best use this information? What should or can you even do with it? Is it all written and recorded, or is there room for change?
Your Tarotscope is not the ultimate goal of your destiny, but rather a roadmap to help you navigate what lies ahead.
Remember: you are still the person walking the path, the adventurer calling the shots.
