Tarot: On the cards

ARIES (20 MARCH– 20 APRIL)

At this point, it is possible that you are taking things too seriously and that makes you feel burdened. Try to reduce the use of the colour yellow in your daily life. The Page of Pentacles shows that new work and directions are taking up a lot of your time. While it is all very good monetarily, you will also need to space out work so that you keep your calm. Mistakes can be avoided when you keep your feelings under control as the strength card is indicating.

TAURUS (20 APRIL –21 MAY)

The Five of Cups shows that you are feeling lonesome and somewhat unsupported by the world at large. You could be expecting too much out of situations and those in them. Try and look at what you can do by yourself and you will be surprised how much you can achieve. The Page of Wands shows you are concerned when it comes to the work life of someone close to you. In one year, the financial freedom you are looking for will be yours.

LEO (23 JULY – 23 AUGUST)

The week ahead is a bit of a challenge for you in terms of emotions. Most of it is needless, but the restlessness will prevail to keep you from feeling comfortable. The Page of Swords concerns the work and life of the youngster in your life and this could be your son. Temperance card comes to tell you not to react to situations with a knee jerk approach. Watch as things unfold and see them going on with dispassion. This is the easiest way to deal with turbulence.

VIRGO (23 AUGUST – 23 SEPTEMBER)

You will be in the limelight for reasons that you have been working for all this while. The Star card will push you in the front to be acknowledged. While you enjoy this phase of recognition, it also brings about major changes in your life and things will become different post these changes. It is the Death card that is always a catalyst for the preparation for the next phase of your life. You could be working even harder than before and will also see better monetary compensation.

Decisions need to be made with the head and not your heart.

The Page of Cups shows that all this is most likely to be driven by the younger lot of people you work with. The Empress shows that the women in your life are on top of things, and not only do they nurture and protect, but also keep the abundance and prosperity going. it is another matter that they could also be feeling overwhelmed with all the responsibilities.
