Horoscope Tarot Reading for the week of September 12, 2022

You don’t need to know the difference between a three-card and a Celtic cross to get the most out of a tarot card reading. All you need: your sun sign! Here’s what I do: shuffle my tarot deck and take out the cards in order from Aries to Pisces, plus a general card for everyone so you can get specific advice on your personality. Let’s go!

A GENERAL CARD FOR ALL: SIX DE TASSES

Property of Hearst

The Six of Cups is all about nostalgia. Think: the past, rekindling old flames, and getting a second chance to enjoy something (or someone) you once had affection for. Pieces of our past life can disappear as we cope with the hectic pace of everyday life. Take a break this week and think back to the happy times, the people and places you loved, and the activities that captivated you. Maybe thinking about it, you can create a new connection. Expect something or someone to return this week.

ARIES: DEATH

the death of the tarot card, showing crying eyes in a golden picture frame

Property of Hearst

Are you considering a makeover, remodeling your home, changing careers or setting new goals? Looks like, with the presence of the Death card. Everything is up for grabs right now, Aries. Life takes you to new places and horizons. You don’t have to stick with what you have right now – you can change, you can grow, you can expand. Everything is possible.

TAURUS: THE SUN

the sun tarot card, showing a single eye in the middle of a star-shaped diamond

Property of Hearst

The Sun is the happiest card in the tarot, so it looks like it’s going to be a great week. Love, relationships, passion, success, rewards and joy are all in the cards. Traveling somewhere sunny or even tropical can also be indicated by the Sun – yes, the cards can be very literal sometimes! The only request is that you be confident and outspoken. Do not deny your desires! Be direct about what you want, then go get it. You can go further than you think possible this week. Enjoy!

GEMINI: THE QUEEN OF CUPS

the queen of cups tarot card, showing an outstretched hand holding a goblet of gold

Property of Hearst

Feelings have been high lately, Gem, and you’ve been feeling a little emo (not your thing, I know). Maybe a moment of sadness, even tears, made you realize that you need to take better care of yourself emotionally. Schedule time to walk and reflect, write down your feelings, talk with a friend, or meditate. You need space and time to honor how you feel and to release it so you can move on to the next step. Slow down, reflect and be patient. There is no urgency here.

CANCER: ACE OF BAGUETTES

the ace of wands tarot card, showing a black and white hand holding a golden key above a full moon

Property of Hearst

Do you want to try a new hobby? I bet so, because the ace of wands is all about activating a hobby that inspires and rejuvenates you. As the nights get longer and fall draws closer, it’s time to turn inward and look at what you love to do around the house. Find a new activity that allows you to spend the darkest evenings in a creative and rewarding way. Spend this week trying out a few options.

LEO: TWO OF PENTACLE

the tarot card the two of pentacles, showing two hands holding two golden clocks

Property of Hearst

FOMO is a real thing for you, Leo. You’ve been known to bite off more than you can chew, simply because you can’t bear to miss what might happen. Well, good news: the Two of Pentacles allows you to say yes to everything and everyone this week. This is a phase of abundance for you, and you can stretch your timeline as much as you want. You will magically find the time, energy and enthusiasm for it all. Go have fun.

VIRGO: KNIGHT OF SWORD

knight of the sword tarot card

Property of Hearst

Stop trying to make everyone happy or safe or confident, and focus on what YOU want most, Virgo. The Knight of Swords does not come to play, he comes to win! You need to stick your elbows out and work your way forward. You have waited and hoped too long. Make it happen! Initiate! Do something for yourself!

SCALE: TWO OF CUPS

the Two Cups tarot card, showing two hands holding golden goblets

Property of Hearst

Libra, you are the zodiac lover, ruled by Venus. The Two of Cups gives you a happy love life booster this week. Bonds will strengthen, bonds will deepen, and intimate bonds will develop. Loving and loyal energy flows freely, making you feel safe and needed. Magical dates, invitations, and grand gestures (maybe even proposals?) will add sparkle to an otherwise boring week. Let Cupid spoil you.

SCORPIO – THE EMPEROR

the Emperor tarot card, showing half of a person's face in the sky with a diamond and a picture frame behind them

Property of Hearst

The Emperor energy suits you well, Scorpio, because you are both ambitious, assertive and full of your own importance (in a good way). This week, you can act like the real boss you are. Make big decisions, inspire others and lead by example. Do it your way. Just be mindful of your own ego and remember to listen carefully and carefully to comments or dissent, because there is ALWAYS a better way to do something. But remember you’re the boss, okay?

SAGITTARIUS: TWO SWORDS

the Two Swords tarot card, showing two pens in front of a pair of eyes

Property of Hearst

Stop procrastinating. The Two of Swords reveals that a decision has been weighing on you for a while now, and it feels heavier and heavier. There’s no perfect solution here, and there’s no foolproof answer. You just have to consider the odds with the information you currently have and make the best choice possible. Then no doubt or self-sabotage…go on and run it with confidence. Then you can move on to the next thing.

CAPRICORN: THE HIEROPHANT

the Hierophant tarot card, showing half of a woman's face next to a diamond

Property of Hearst

You’re generally a bit of a lone ranger – you’re happy to engage in solo projects and endeavors. But The Hierophant sees you wanting to join forces this week. You feel the need to belong and put your valuable skills and talents to work for a greater cause, something worthwhile that you believe in. It can be religious, spiritual, charitable or justice related. Choose a cause or campaign and find out how you can help.

AQUARIUS: THE HIGH PRIESTESS

the High Priestess tarot card, showing the lower half of a black woman's face with red lipstick and diamond earrings with a full moon behind her

Property of Hearst

The High Priestess signals that it is time to connect with your own subconscious. Important ideas and information are waiting to emerge, but to hear that inner voice, you need to be relaxed, calm, and still. It’s time to reflect, journal, talk in a mirror, and meditate. Life has been busy lately, and there is a lot to ruminate and ponder. You’re still emotionally ~catching up~, and maybe that’s what needs to happen this week. You need to know how you really feel.

PISCES: FIVE OF PENTACLES

Don’t dwell on past losses, setbacks, or disappointments, dear Pisces, for they are over and cannot be changed. We all do it, but regret is useless. The Five of Pentacles asks you to acknowledge your feelings, but then say goodbye as you continue to look and plan for your future. Take life lessons from the past and apply them. Don’t feel trapped by an ~old version~ of yourself. You have lived, learned and moved. Celebrate second chances, new opportunities, and your ability to renew yourself.
