Tarot - On the cards

There is a tendency to feel that things are not enough — money, work, and normal order of things. This is the way the pandemic has made so many people feel. But then it is all relative is it not? Thinking like this will only aggravate the sense of not having enough and those vibrations are most likely to bring about the feeling of lack and therefore situations to match those vibrations. This is what the Five of Pentacles is trying to tell you. It is imperative that you think from a place of abundance which the sun card is saying and also telling you that so much can still be achieved from the way things are now. Also with the appearance of the card, Justice you can be sure that you won’t lose out in any way any more than anyone else. This is now collective karma the world is undergoing to make it a better place. So continue with your plans and goals.

Focus at this time should be on studies or learning new things. This will go a long way in enhancing your basic skills and also help you in the days to come. The High Priestess also says that you will also be in a position to impart knowledge to others so make the best of this time. The Four of Cups, on the other hand, is indicating that there are many things that are right up your alley, but you are either not interested in them or not really looking at some opportunities that are presenting themselves to you. What are you really missing out seeing? This is something you will have to ask yourself again and again to make the best use of your time and talents. The Seven of Swords shows that you are ready to pack and leave — this can be a metaphorical idea as well as a really physical one where you would like to leave from your current space. Both of these are not for now, so enjoy what life has to offer.

Things are indeed tricky at the moment. The Hanged Man shows that no logical or usual way of thinking is going to help as you will have to be very creative to get your work done. Basically, it means that whatever strategy you were adopting till now will have to be changed to something smarter and yes somewhat manipulative. All this of course in a nice way. That is something you will have to figure out. The Knight of Pentacle suggests that the young ones in your family will carry the legacy forward and you can help by placing the seeds of thoughts that will grow into a big beautiful tree in the future. The time is for them and not really for those who are past their prime. This does not mean that there is no role for such category. There is and their experience and knowledge will be the foundation of a strong future.

Cancerians contrary to situation all around, are doing very well. Work is going well and there is a demand for your skills and that is the basis of feeling good. The Star card comes about to show that the path ahead is bright with prospects and you will do well to be prepared to take off in a big way. While there is a great amount of recognition and applause coming your way, you must also know that this is a burden to bear. It won’t be easy to live up to expectations and this can cause stress and anxiety that you must take care of. The Ten of Wands indicates this and also that you will feel the burden of your work and ambitions. There is a lot to be done and you will be raring to go. The Empress that comes shows that women born under this sign will be on a good wicket and are on top of things.

Many Leos are actually having a pleasant time. Staying home, learning new things and connecting to friends and family digitally — it is helping them to pass the time in a good manner. The Three of Cups shows there could be many virtual parties and gatherings happening and anything that keeps the mood up and happy is worth it. The Three of Pentacles gives the impression that plans for the coming days are also being made and a lot of them have to do with travel, building and shaping the work environment. All these will have a bearing on how the future will unfold. The Knight of Cups confirms this thought because this could well be the time when succession plans are being made. The time has come when youngsters will have to be ready to roll and take the world in their hands. They are the future.

Those born under this sign have a battle ahead of them. And this is not a thing to get worked up about but something that will bring their best foot forward. It is time to forge ahead and go after the things that are necessary to achieve success and satisfaction when it comes to work. The Knight of Swords suggests that this is the phase you are in right now. The more adventurous of the lot will actually be looking forward to this. The Ace of Wands is kind of a confirmation of these thoughts because it indicates that success or whatever one terms it that is something one will need to work in the spirit of war. That said it indicates that better days are ahead when it comes to work-related things and you can be sure that you will be plunged into it before you even realise it.

The accent is on work and all your ambitions. The Nine of Wands suggest that this is a time when you will be paying attention to strengthening, ideating and coming up with strategies to enhance core skill so that once the world opens up after lockdown you will be absolutely prepared with a good game plan for achieving your highest potential. So learning, gaining other skills and the direction and strength of purpose will show itself with more clarity than ever before and it is good that you are spending this time equipping yourself adequately. The Hierophant will guide you towards the desired path and is also the guide and guru for your life goals. If you can pray more to this guide — physical or otherwise you will benefit greatly.

Scorpio women particularly will display the strong side of their personalities and will be so preoccupied with themselves that they won’t see how lonely or isolated their partners could feel. The Queen of Swords indicates that women have got things under control. They can also get very tough and single-minded about it. When it comes to dealing with the emotions of others — especially those who live with them — it can be a bit of a struggle for others to fall in line. The Five of Cups shows that. This card is also indicative of what Scorpio men could be feeling- isolated, marginalised and feeling all alone. This, however, is temporary and will pass soon.The King of Pentacles shows that there are strong male energies that are helping you in many ways.

It is time for you to build a happy home. If married, you need to make extra efforts to ensure that those who live with you are happy and have most of their needs met. If unmarried then it could be time to make that commitment. The Four of Wands suggests the establishment of a happy home environment. The Four of Pentacles, however, will see you vacillate and debate on how you should be using your money or other resources in the current time. You are not likely to in a mood to share your thoughts about this but you will spend a lot of time wondering where to put the money or how to spend or even whether to spend at all. The Lovers cards shows that you could be veering towards settling down in matrimony or some kind of a committed relationship.

It is frustrating when you are raring to go and conquer the world you are being stopped by timing. The Two of Wands shows how eager you are to get back to work like before, but the Four of Swords shows there needs to be caution and a different kind of planning to suit a new normal. How things were before can probably not be there anymore and you will have to adapt to a new way of working and thinking. The Four of Swords also shows that this will happen in a good time but there is still some waiting to do. The Queen of Wands shows that there will have to be a balance between being safe and trying to achieve work-related goals. You will have to keep a grip over your ambitions no matter how eager you are to get back on your feet.

Understandably it is a tough time mentally. Restrictions galore and no way out of it. The Eight of Wands suggests that there is also a lot that is self-imposed. Tying yourself up in knots is something that you do very often. Your strategy should be to let things go and be easy about what the day has to offer. The Devil meantime shows that you are probably only seeing one of two persons in your home and life and that can get to be a bit tiresome. It could feel like a millstone but remember at least you have them instead of being all alone. The King of Cups suggests the presence of a strong male individual who also demands time and attention. This is a presence that is part of your self inflicted annoyance and irritation. But nothing you cannot handle. 

Most of those born under this sign, know the power of gratitude. The Judgement card is indicative of that. They know that things could be a lot worse and are happy that they are where they are. The Ten of Cups shows that however troubled the world is, they are trying their best to keep the cheer and carry on without complaining. This is why the Wheel of Fortune comes to show that luck will be on their side with them being in gratitude and also having a positive mindset. It is also to show that what is down will have to come up and the Wheel will come a full circle for better times in the days to come. This attitude will show itself to others and they too will gain from this and ensure that they follow these principals to help them go through difficult times with grace and acceptance.
