The Six of Coins is a nudge to share what you have, be visible, show up for those in need, advise and support people you love who’re having a tough time. This is you at your best and will store up so many ‘brownie points’ for the future (people never forget a true kindness) that it’s actually an investment. This is how you take a shortcut towards feeling great.

Tarot card for Leo for this week: Six of Wands

Meaning: Look back at 2024 and select what has worked well for you, what was a success, where you got great feedback or praise. Zoom in and list the winners. Then work out how you can build on them, expand them, take the next step, take them to the next natural level.

Build on the wins, that is your strategy this week, and it will prove to be surprisingly successful and easy. So many doors are already open to you, Leo, you just need to go knock on them!         

Tarot card for Virgo for this week: The Lovers

Meaning: The arrival of your sign’s season makes you feel good, maybe a little emotional, so much has changed since your birthday last year. Have a week of reflection and come to some useful conclusions about situations that have felt confusing and troubling recently.

You are such a sharp thinker but you can get overwhelmed by ambiguous situations because you tend to blame yourself or lean towards the negative possibilities. Take a fresh look at your issues, come to conclusions, and take steps. Gift this clarity and positivity to yourself this Virgo season!   

Tarot card for Libra for this week: Temperance

Meaning: Your wellbeing is all about feeling harmonious, peaceful, calm, and composed. You need order, organisation, and smooth-running schedules. Temperance asks you to streamline your activity this week – make it seamless, easy, automated, easy.

Create a foolproof to-do list and schedule and then simply walk the walk. Remove any thorns or spiky bits. Smooth out the ruffles. Trim off the excess. Rein in the extremes. Keep things on an even keel and you will glide through this week feeling serene and grounded. This is the key to it.

Tarot card for Scorpio for this week: The Chariot

Meaning: You are in a goal-setting mood and the areas in question might include: a new vehicle, an important trip or journey, a holiday, a house move, or even a whole change of location.

You are reviewing your position and territory, thinking about how new landscape opens up new opportunities and ideas. You are keen to be in the right place at the right time to make the most of what you can offer, and get the best returns. Make a winning strategy. Be savvy and visible. Show up where it counts.

You create your own luck by doing the maximum you can to be in front of opportunities as they unfold. Think about what you want and then go wherever it’s likely to be happening! Simple.  

Tarot card for Capricorn for this week: Queen of Wands

Meaning: Travel and adventure are on the cards for you this week, Cap, whether it’s getting away from it right now or planning an amazing journey or adventure in the future (TBH, likely the latter as you enjoy the planning stage almost as much as the travel itself).

Make a vision board! Watch some vlogs! Read the reviews! Let your imagination wander. What is your bucket list when it comes to travel? Now is the time to lean in to these ambitions as they’ll provide something to invest in and work towards.

Tarot card for Aquarius for this week: Five of Wands

Meaning: You can get your house in order this week, Aquarius, by zooming in wherever you think there’s tension, discord, stress, or pressure. Go where the tender spots are and examine them. There are root causes for everything, an underlying reason triggering the inflammation or noise.

Find out what it is and make it your mission this week to fix it. Be a healer. Be a trouble shooter. Be a fixer. You are smart and practical and you can find solutions to most issues. Put that into practice this week and iron out the kinks in your realm.  

Tarot card for Pisces for this week: Four of Cups

Meaning: Examine the feeling or sensation of lack and loss in your mind. You have been feeling like you’re missing out of something recently, like others have it better or easier, that you’ve ‘missed the boat’ somehow. It’s a horrible feeling… and not really justified.
