Horoscope Tarot Reading for the week of September 26, 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 one general card for everyone so you can get specific advice on your personality. Let’s go!

A GENERAL CARD FOR ALL: THE HANGED MAN

Property of Hearst

Sometimes we find ourselves in limbo, frustrated and stuck, unable to move forward. What to do? First, relax. Sometimes you have to hang around, let things take their course and see what happens. It’s one of those weeks. Use this break to think, reflect, and ask yourself if you could make an adjustment to help get things started again. Something has changed. Find out what.

ARIES: KNIGHT OF PENTACLE

the tarot card the knight of pentacles, showing a golden clock

Property of Hearst

The Knight of Pentacles is not your usual style, Aries. This card is serious, overly conscientious, and even defensive. He gets things done – sometimes unpleasant, boring, or demanding things that you would probably prefer to leave to someone else. Aries, this is a week for digging in and taking on a tough challenge. Summon your Knight of Pentacles traits and tackle this job. You can do it and you will feel better after doing it.

TAURUS: THE HIEROPHANT

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

Property of Hearst

You’re actually quite happy with your own company, Taurus, more than people realize given your flirtatious nature. Solo time is fine with you, you like to go at your own pace. This week, however, you feel like joining us and belonging. The Hierophant advises you to look at local groups, classes, workshops, charities, spiritual circles and political campaigns. What inspires you? What would you like to contribute? Go join him.

GEMINI: NINE OF PENTACLES

the Nine of Pentacles tarot card, showing nine arched clocks over a diamond and an eye

Property of Hearst

Gem, you’re the type to live in the moment, act spontaneously and go with the flow. Making long term plans is difficult because you change your mind so often. Sometimes, however, you need to plan for the long term because some goals (especially those related to finances, home, education, or health) take time. Focus on something you want to achieve in the future and make a plan for it. Make this path real. The Nine of Pentacles will bring you focus and inspiration.

CANCER: FOUR WANDS

the Four Wands tarot card, showing four golden keys on a white background near some diamonds and a pink full moon

Property of Hearst

Forward and upward, my friend. The Four of Wands knows you’ve worked hard and made real progress in your career or creative life. Go yourself! But that’s not the end, oh no, that’s just the beginning. Look at your recent successes and build on them. The Four of Wands shows that you have created a solid platform. Now is the time to amplify your ambitions and take it to the next level. Promotions, advancement, expansion… everything is possible now.

LION: FIVE OF SWORDS

five swords tarot card, showing five golden pens and a collage of eyes

Property of Hearst

The Five of Swords reveals that you are in the middle of some battle. Conflicts, pressure and tension have become familiar lately and you are tired of fighting. I hear you. But listen: what’s really going on here is change. Something has changed, but you and others have not yet changed with it. Get to the root cause. Have great conversations. Listen deeply. Seek to understand. Major breakthroughs are coming.

VIRGO: NINE OF WANDS

nine of wands tarot card

Property of Hearst

Virgo, you think too much about something that shouldn’t be so difficult. The Nine of Wands puts a big, warm arm around your shoulders and tells you that you’ll be fine. You have this! Rest assured that all of this is easily and quickly fixable, and that you will be on the other side of it all by this time next week. Go tackle this problem and stop worrying.

LIBRA: QUEEN OF CUPS

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

Property of Hearst

The Queen of Cups is a great card for you, Libra, as it represents self-care and self-love. So it’s time to do things that please you, heal you, relax you and inspire you. Schedule a week of activities and outings designed to make you happy. Take time for deep rest and some treats. Then end the week on a high, like with a weekend getaway with your best friends. Create happiness in your world.

SCORPIO: JUDGMENT

the judgment tarot card showing eyes circling a full moon

Property of Hearst

Judgment is a powerful card for receiving inspiration, ideas, or a life-changing revival. So expect to encounter a light bulb moment in the coming week. It could change how you feel about yourself, your life, your priorities, or even your values. It is a positive change that brings you closer to your authentic self and your purpose in life. It’s about recognizing where you stand, belong and can make a difference.

SAGITTARIUS: SEVEN SWORDS

a hand holds seven golden pens on a diamond background

Property of Hearst

You are so open and carefree, Sagittarius. It’s an adorable trait that draws people to you, but not all of those people are as wholesome and kind as you are, so you have to be a little careful at this time. The Seven of Swords reveals that someone new to your world is a little sleazy, a little jealous, perhaps. Whatever their agreement, they do you no favors. So be careful and be careful who you expose your inner thoughts and dreams to this week.

CAPRICORN: THE MOON

the moon tarot card showing a hand holding a full moon

Property of Hearst

There is a secret in your world, Cap, and you will discover it this week. It’s time to start detective! The Moon shows that you need to do research, ask probing questions, test answers, and understand what’s going on below the surface. Once you know the truth, you’ll see things differently and maybe even make a major decision you didn’t expect. Seven important days of self-discovery and enlightenment lie ahead.

AQUARIUS: SEVEN OF WANDS

tarot card seven of wands

Property of Hearst

You are not afraid to face others and stand your ground. You don’t mind a fight if it’s something big, and you’re unlikely to back down when you believe in your position. The Seven of Wands sees you take on the challenge this week. Sometimes challenges like this remind you of what’s most worthwhile and what’s worth fighting for. Stand up for what you believe is right. You can overcome these obstacles.

FISH: SEVEN OF CUP

tarot card seven of cups

Property of Hearst

You have a great imagination, Pisces. The Seven of Cups sees it sink in Technicolor glory this week as your ideas boil over and your creativity explodes. Take a journal everywhere and write down all that magic – who knows what you might end up using it for? Every idea is precious, every thought is precious, and every idea is valid this week. Be sure to spend time relaxing, walking, reflecting, and meditating. Daydreaming is a good thing this week – in fact, do even more of it!
