What does the week have in store? Your tarot horoscope reading for April 29 to May 5

Tarot card for Aries for this week: Page of Swords

Meaning: This is going to be such a mentally stimulating week ahead for you. The Page of Swords has you firing on all cylinders and every idea feels like a winner… you know what, they are! Use them all.

Set off lots of flares and threads and new projects. Be busy and active. Commit to igniting the passions and interests you feel drawn to right now. It might be a great time to look at doing a course or taking up a new skill or hobby.

Tarot card for Taurus for this week: Eight of Coins

Meaning: Put all of your power into a long-term or difficult project or goal you’ve been embroiled in, and fatigued by, recently. I promise there’s a major breakthrough lying ahead this week and you can make more progress than you have in the last month!

Sometimes it’s all about timing. Your efforts have not gone unnoticed. Now is not the time to step back or quit. Now is the time to forge ahead and get what you deserve from this hard work.

Tarot card for Gemini for this week: The Tower

Meaning: Let it all collapse, let it all fall down. That might sound unpleasant but actually it’s going to feel cathartic, liberating, and empowering. You are being freed from toxic, unhealthy, stagnant, and false commitments, roles, or relationships. Everything is ready to crumble and you can then let it all turn to dust and start your comeback on a firm foundation.

This is necessary. This has been a long time coming and you’re not even surprised in truth. You are relieved. Take your new-found freedom and head off towards a shiny, new horizon.

Tarot card for Cancer for this week: Nine of Swords

Meaning: Stop, put down your burdens, and rest this week. And, better yet, offload the unspoken dread or fear you’ve been carrying around recently and letting get heavier and darker. It’s all out of proportion. Talk to someone you trust and say this all out loud and I promise it will mostly evaporate into thin air. It’s all just imagination and projection.

If you can put down your anxieties and clear the decks, you are free to notice all the fantastic new opportunities coming your way this week. Have a mental de-clutter and get ready for new news!

Tarot card for Leo for this week: Five of Wands

Meaning: Leo, when the new news and invitations and opportunities fly in this week, notice where you feel there’s a blockage, some jealousy, or a personal barrier within you to saying ‘yes’. The Five of Wands hints something, or someone, might be holding you back from what you truly want to do.

No need to ‘fight’ this as such, simply dismantle the bonds that hold you tethered and free yourself to pursue new things you’re interested in. Notice where there’s pressure or constraint, and seek to remove it. This will make a huge difference.

Tarot card for Virgo for this week: Two of Coins

Meaning: You can have it all this week, you are perfectly poised to jump onto these busy, abundant, spicy, exciting vibes and create lots of new opportunities and futures for yourself.

Say ‘yes’ to everything, basically, that’s the golden rule of the Two of Coins. Be abundant. Seek variety. Know your true desires and research ways and means to step closer to them, and take those steps. It can be as simple as that. And whatever else you come across, along the way, say ‘yes’ to that too!

Tarot card for Libra for this week: Nine of Cups

Meaning: Libra, this can be a truly magical week ahead for you. Make a wish! The Nine of Cups is a cosmic dream-come-true pass that lets you have whatever you most desire, as long as you make overt and direct moves in its direction. Know what you want and pursue it right now, this is the right time. A heart’s desire.

Tarot card for Scorpio for this week: Nine of Wands

Meaning: Scorpio, use this powerful surge of ‘can do’ cosmic energy to tackle a longstanding issue that you’ve kind of dreaded taking on. I know, I know. You’re thinking ‘that’s no fun’. Well, maybe, but imagine how good it will feel to have this off your plate once and for all?

The Nine of Wands reassures you that you have everything you need to overcome this thing a whole lot easier than you imagine. You have just over-thought it a bit. Time for action. Time to get this done and dusted.

Tarot card for Sagittarius for this week: Ten of Cups

Meaning: Let Venus in Taurus (which is a double dose of Venus and a very good romance transit) inject passion and heat into your love life! The Ten of Cups is like having Cupid as your wing man who will basically bring you whatever you wish for!

Date night, proposals, passionate intimate evenings, adventurous outings, new partners, rekindled love, old flames. Whatever you wish for, make a wish on it this week and let Cupid do this thing. You are blessed in being attractive and popular. Enjoy all the attention.

Tarot card for Capricorn for this week: King of Swords

Meaning: You are doing your favourite thing this week: making exciting long-term plans. Long term is good because it allows you to really let your ambitions soar, time means you can longer to reach your potential and it can be even greater.

The King of Swords sees you feeling mentally clear, sharp, and full of innovative schemes to get ahead and get what you want. Use this week to get all of this down on paper, to craft and hone your strategy, and figure out the first few steps… which you can take next week!

Tarot card for Aquarius for this week: The Wheel of Fortune

Meaning: Exciting times, Aquarius, with the dramatic and transformative Wheel of Fortune. What do you wish were different in your realm? Think carefully and consider how you would like that change process to go… and then make a move!

The stars are aligned this week to help super-charge your steps with power and purpose. Whatever you activate will take on its own momentum and begin to really propel you ahead. It’s a week to seek transformation and change.

Tarot card for Pisces for this week: Two of Wands

Meaning: If you knew you couldn’t fail at something, what would the ‘something’ you chose to do be? I ask because this card hints that whatever you focus on this week, with these powerful cosmic forces behind you, you will be successful at.

It’s about directing your energy and having a purpose or priority. It’s about taking positive, overt steps in its direction. It’s about brushing aside distraction or activities which crop up and threaten to derail you. Focus, have intentions, move towards them, keep it simple and keep it directed towards your priority goals. Success lies ahead.
