Your sign’s weekly tarotscope for May 6 – 12, 2024
Ram
Temperance (reverse)
Ram is having trouble keeping a cool head this week.
When Temperance is reversed, you are not so much angry, overly emotional or anything out of the ordinary, but rather uncomfortable feelings of imbalance.
It can be difficult to determine exactly what is “out” once you have this card turned over.
But patience, self-forgiveness and giving yourself grace will be helpful remedies to get through this difficult time.
Taurus
King of Cups
Taurus feels the atmosphere of this Taurus New Moon very well!
The King of Cups shows you embracing your emotional prowess and expertise, which aligns very well with your heart and intuition.
This is a good time for divination, involving the heart in your decision-making and having important conversations from a place of love and understanding.
These are just a few examples of how you can use this powerful energy to your advantage; Ultimately the decision is yours, Taurus!
Twin
The world (inverted)
Gemini is reevaluating what the “big picture” should look like for itself.
The upside-down world can turn your entire life upside down and spiral out of control. Suddenly it’s easier to focus on everything not seems good and you feel disconnected from your bigger plans and goals.
However, this time of funkiness and strange vibrations will fade away once you carefully examine what truths need to be highlighted here – what do you do Real want, and how does your current path fit in with those ambitions?
Cancer
Queen of Wands (reverse)
Cancer struggles this week with their ambitions… and perhaps their ego.
The reversed queen of wands expresses a struggle with your pride, sense of self and/or your self-confidence.
You may have dreams and ambitions that you want to achieve, but suddenly you’re not sure you can achieve them. Some cancers may feel the need to overcompensate for this and behave impulsively as a result.
Take note of where your impulses and motivation really come from at this moment, and try to be gentle with yourself as you carefully work on your self-image this week.
Lion
3 of wands
Adventure and expansion are just around the corner Lion!
With the 3 wands at your side, it’s time to expand and look outside. What dreams have you put aside that you can now tackle again? What ideas would you like to pursue?
This is also a great card for traveling, meeting new people and embracing the element of surprise.
However it ultimately manifests itself for you, it sounds like an exciting week!
Virgin
6 of cups (inverted)
Virgin stuck in memory lane.
The 6 of Cups reversed allows you to travel through nostalgic memories and feelings from the past. To some extent this reflection can be useful.
However, it must be done deliberately and in moderation. At this time, Virgos may have a tendency to get caught up in old patterns and emotions that are not productive for the present or future.
Be aware of where your mind and heart wander this week – and remember to bring them back to the present if they get lost.
Scale
7 of Pentacles (reversed)
Scale tries to make productive, practical plans for the future, but that is more difficult than it seems.
The 7 of Pentacles reversed shows that you’re making an effort when it comes to thinking about future stability, making realistic action plans, and thinking seriously about finances, abundance, and career.
However, reversing this card can also make the process feel slow and motionless, and you need to be careful that all that thinking doesn’t turn into procrastination.
Eventually you will have to come to reality to work also a part of everything.
Scorpion
Knight of Swords (Reverse)
Scorpion wants to realize their ideas and ambitions, but must beware of haphazard moves.
Although the Knight of Swords offers momentum and drive, the reversal of this card warns against moving too quickly or impulsively just to feel something.
It’s still important to think before you speak, think before you make a decision, and look ahead before you leap.

Archer
8 of wands
Archer is finally moving, getting some action and back in action!
The 8 of Wands creates momentum, fast communication, and adventure in the week ahead.
As such, this is very much a “blink and you might miss it.”
When you have something serious to do, you need to be intentional about making time for rest and planning, otherwise you may find that you don’t have time at all.
Ibex
3 of Pentacles
Capricorn, as the old saying goes, teamwork makes the dream work.
With the 3 of Pentacles on the table for you, it is essential to work with others as much as possible this week to make progress.
This means switching roles when it seems appropriate: teacher, student, sage, mentor, assistant, artist, and so on. Be flexible with the skills and ideas you bring to the table from moment to moment.
With the right attitude, this can be an excellent week for career development and financial gain.
Aquarius
King of Pentacles (reversed)
Aquarius is getting all their material affairs in order, and that’s not always fun.
The King of Pentacles reversed highlights any insecurities you have regarding your control over your finances, home, and career.
This week you need to take into account where you could improve, where you might be slacking, and also where you’re not maximizing your own potential!
This process can be humbling, but it can also be extremely essential to making the ultimate progress you seek, Aquarius.
Fishing
Queen of cups
Fishing is in their feelings this week, and it’s actually in a good way!
Despite the stereotype that Pisces get too stuck in their hearts and minds, the Queen of Cups is here to affirm some of your best qualities: your intuition, emotional attunement, and gentle compassion.
YoJe is working with these assets in a meaningful way this week, more connected to these skills and facets of yourself that are often overlooked.
What is your heart telling you, Pisces? It’s time to listen.
