Horoscope Reading March 27 - April 2

Spring, my beloved! The snow has melted, the earth has thawed, and finally rain falls from the sky instead of snow. We're still waiting on the last big snowstorm of the year, which marks the true end of winter; the cold season likes to go out with a big to-do, I suppose, which is understandable if still irritating. In any case, this week, at least, was warm enough that one could comfortably go out in a sweater, for which, if nothing else, I am thankful.

But you're not here for this week; you're here to know about next week, and I am here to provide. And so, the altar cloth is laid out, the incense lit - Frankincense, this week - the cards cleared, shuffled, and placed in their positions for this week's reading.

The layout of the cards is such:

image ID: 12 tarot cards laid out face down on an altar cloth, with the symbols of the zodiac signs overlaid on them. The signs, left to right, are: Pisces, Cancer, Scorpio, Aries, Leo, Sagittarius, Aquarius, Gemini, Libra, Capricorn, Taurus, Virgo.

The signs are organized and grouped by element, and the cards placed on the corresponding quadrant of my altar cloth. This week, the cards themselves fell thus:

Image ID: the cards from the previous image, now face up. Left to right: queen of pentacles reversed, 2 of pentacles reversed, king of swords, the empress reversed, the magician reversed, justice, king of pentacles, the moon, death reversed, queen of swords, the fool, ace of wands reversed.

So now let's get to the interpretations.

Pisces ♓ (February 19 - March 20):  Queen of Pentacles (reversed) 


In all things there must be balance, and this week, Pisces, you may find it hard to find the right balance between your home life and your work life. Are you focusing maybe a bit too much on the materialistic side of things? Are you neglecting your emotional duties - or, on the flipside, are you perhaps overdoing it a bit? If this week you find your home life to be in a tizzy, try to take a step back and see where you've gone off-kilter.

Cancer ♋ (June 21 - July 22): Two of Pentacles (reversed)

Cancer, you've got to stop over-extending yourself. You're just once person, and overcommitting yourself to too many things won't do you any favours. Are you trying to get too many things done at once? Have you made too many hasty desicions? Have you simply been going too fast for too long? This week, Cancer, if you don't slow down and find your footing, it's going to catch up with you. In all things there must be balance. Take a day for some introspection, and try to find that inner harmony and equilibrium you've misplaced.

Scorpio ♏ (October 23 - November 21): King of Swords

This week, Scorpio, you're gonna need to make use of that incredible analytical mind of yours. Logic, rather than emotion, will bring you results and answers. You may find yourself in a position of authority this week; perhaps as a leader of a team, band, or group. Make sure you remain fair, impartial, and straightforward. Though this week you should make sure your emotions don't rule you, don't lose sight of them completely; in all things, after all, there must be balance.

Aries ♈ (March 21 - April 19): The Empress (reversed)

It's hard to get anything done when your emotions are all over the place. How are you doing, Aries? There seems to be a bit of a disconnect between you and the world around you. This week, Aries, you may want to lean on your friends and family; though sometimes it may feel to you like you're alone, like it's 'everyone for themself', it's not; no one in this world is truly alone, and you've got people who can take care of you if you need them to. I would also suggest taking any opportunity that you can to go take a walk in nature, and try to find that harmony you've been missing.

Leo ♌ (July 23 - August 22): The Magician (reversed)

You've got incredible potential, Leo, but this week that talent is being wasted. This week is the time to look within yourself and ask yourself the hard questions. What do you really want? Is this fire in your belly true passion? Or is it powerlust? Are you doing all that you're doing for the right reasons and for the right aims? You've got to rediscover your muse, your true inspiration, your real passion this week. You've got what it takes to achieve your dreams - just as soon as you pin down what your dreams actually are.

Sagittarius ♐ (November 22 - December 21): Justice

Newton's third law of physics states that for every action, there is an equal and opposite reaction. This week, Sagittarius, the world is fair and karma is real; whether that's a good or bad thing depends entirely on you and your actions. Have you been treating others kindly and fairly? Then you've got nothing to worry about! If on the other hand you've been on your less-than-best behaviour, then you may be held accountable for your past actions this week. Keep a level head, have your priorities in order, and everything will work out.

Aquarius ♒ (January 20 - February 18): King of Pentacles

This is the card of personal growth, material abundance, and spiritual wealth. This week, Aquarius, if you're true to yourself, keep a level head and stay the course, you'll be seeing good things heading your way, and not necessarily just in the financial sense. The success you may come across this week may be of the spiritual, or emotional sort; deep happiness in a relationship or friendship, fulfillment in a career, maybe even a great achievement in a skill.

Gemini ♊ (May 21 - June 20):  The Moon

What is truth? What is 'reality'? What we consider to be real or not real is often dictated by our own perception, and that can very easily be warped or decieved. This week, Gemini, you might find yourself in the midst of illusion and deception; it'll be difficult to differentiate between real and false. Sometimes, the only way to navigate treacherous waters is to close those fallible eyes, turn off that over-analytical brain, and let the current and your intuition guide your through. Right now might not be the time for you to understand what's really going on, and maybe that's okay.

Libra ♎ (September 23 - October 22): Death (reversed)

Change is scary, and sometimes it's hard to let go of what was to make room for what can be. Are you afraid of the unknown? Are you afraid to turn the page for fear of what the next chapter may contain? Libra, change is a vital part of growth. You wouldn't be where you are now, had you not let go of who you were before. This week, you may be put through a significant change that might irrevocably alter how you see yourself or the world around you. How will you take this change? Will you allow the loss to hurt you so badly you can't recover? Or will you look forward to the bright, open future ahead of you?

Capricorn ♑ (December 22 - January 19): Queen of Swords

You're a straight shooter, Capricorn, and this week that trait will do you a lot of good. This week is the time for you to rev up that sharp and clever mind of yours; use those quick wits, that high intellingence, that deep wisdom of yours to get ahead and help those around you. The decisions you make this week are going to be important ones; make sure you look over all the facts of any situation and make informed and rational choices.

Taurus ♉ (April 20 - May 20): The Fool

Is there anything better than a fresh start? This week, Taurus, will see you at the beginning of a journey, taking those first hopeful, excited and optimistic steps into the bright sunrise of your new venture. The Fool os, in my opinion, the most powerful card of the tarot, because it represents a clean slate, a blank canvas; it, as well as the person or situation it represents, can become anything. It has endless potential, and this week, Taurus, so do you. Trust yourself, ignore the haters and the naysayers. The world is your oyster, Taurus.

Virgo ♍ (August 23 - September 22): Ace of Wands (reversed)

This week, Virgo, you might find yourself wondering as the the point of what you're doing. Boredom, frustration, a general lack of motivation or passion for your work might creep up on you if you let them. Which project have you been hyperfocusing on? Have you maybe put too much of your creative energy into it, only to now find yourself running out of gas? Don't give up, Virgo, on this project or on yourself. If there's one thing you're good at, it's committment, and if anyone can get through the grind, it's you.

Though I make no promises or guarantees (as stated in the disclaimers of my introductory post), I do hope that this reading is helpful to you in the coming week, and if it does turn out to be accurate, please don't hesitate to leave a comment or reach out! I'd love to hear feedback. Quick reminder as well that I do personal readings on fiverr, only $5-$15 per depending on the complexity of the spread, and I also have a patreon, if you enjoyed this blog and want to support it! I also have a small announcement for anyone in the York Region of Ontario; a colleague of mine and I will be setting up a stand at the Aurora Famer's Market and Artisan Fair this summer, so if you're around and have nothing better to do on a Saturday morning, come on by! He and I will be selling our handmade jewelry and doing tarot readings.

My Twitter account recently got suspended (for, as far as I can tell, no reason at all, good or otherwise; I've sent messages to support but have yet to hear back), but you can also follow me on Tumblr or Instagram if you'd like to hear more from me, even though I don't really post all that much.

Thank you so much for reading, and I will be back with another post next week!
