Discover the following week’s spiritual resolutions (or predictions) with the ancient wisdom of tarot and astrology (for August 20-26, 2016)
Read your weekly, personal tarot card, depending on your sign or your Ascendant and move with confidence and in some cases with less arrogance or with some more caution...
Below you see this week's *tarot spread, drawn exclusively for Steemers. Each tarot card is handpicked in a random way and it corresponds to a sign.
ARIES (March 21-April 20) - THE FOOL
Generally, your mood this week seems to be quite adventurous. Of course, avoid feeling too excited with any new opportunity presented (especially at work) and think that you also have some prior, obligations to fulfil.
In your relationships your mood may be rebellious, clearly indicating that you need new things and some air of refreshment.
You want to start a journey to an unknown destination and this is something that no one ever knows if it might lead to something good or bad...Well, everything is possible.
TAURUS (April 21-May 20) - THE EMPEROR
This week your attitude towards the others may be somewhat authoritarian, perhaps dogmatic. You are determined to achieve a goal that you have already put in your mind for some time now and it seems that you’ve managed to earn the true respect of people in your workplace and most likely with proper preparation you will manage even more important things in the future.
However, try to avoid the harsh criticism of your loved ones. This attitude may bring the opposite results from the ones that you have been expecting… Just show a little more compassion and do not be so narrow-minded when people around you make a mistake.
Remember that you too are human and make mistakes like all of us. You may receive some direct influence from an Aries or a person with an ascendant in Aries.
GEMINI (May 21-June 20) - THE LOVERS
Mission accomplished. The card which represents you this week happens to be the archetypal card which corresponds to your sign, which means that actually it's time to shine this week. It doesn’t get any better than this.
These days you are in absolute synchronization with any kind of ability you have - especially with your intelligence. You can manage almost everything either in your relationship or at work.
If you will find yourself in front of a very important decision, avoid the thoughts of outdated or bitter experiences and stay optimistic, no matter what. Set a limit to your binary nature and try to be as honest as possible with the others. Say what you want and want what you say.
You may receive some direct influence of someone who belongs in the same sign as you or whose ascendant is Gemini.
CANCER (June 21-July 21) - THE HIGH PRIESTESS
As always, you are deeply sunk in your thoughts - with great nostalgia for the older and better days - trying to understand what it is that really keeps you from claim back things which actually belong to you.
You feel very tired by your work and although you still haven’t lost your creativity, you keep withdrawing more and more, getting deeper into your shell.
Try harder to become a little more sociable. You have the attitude: 'observe and do not speak'. It is a wise behaviour but some people at work or in your relationships may perceive it as some sort of a suspicious perspective.
Observe in a silent way and learn from the mistakes of others but talk when you need to talk. Check what affects you, try to interpret everything or everyone accordingly and especially with an open mind.
LEO (July 22-August 22) - THE HANGED MAN
Perhaps you feel that things are not going so well recently and you've begun doubting about yourself or about the others. You seem to have expected something specific and you’ve finally gotten something else…
Anxiety and frustration have taken the place of your positive thoughts and good feelings in life. Now you begin to realize the effects of your bad choices - in your career and your finances (wrong emotional or financial investments).
The influences of third parties may appear negative, but consider the best and try to see them in a more positive light. Do not rely your actions on what others expect of you, do what you must. But if this implies sacrificing and especially sacrificing things in your personal life, then you should go on and do it in order to clarify things more quickly and more easily.
VIRGO (July 22-August 22) - DEATH
Something has very recently finished for you and it was of very big importance. Now there are two cases: you either refuse to admit the reality or you see it but you refuse to proceed to the next step.
Your future looks bleak and black at the moment but if you accept this great chance for a change whether in your relationship, or in your career, then you will certainly manage to feel joy and spiritual balance in your life.
Things are quite miserable lately…
What’s done is done, just do not resist to change. Move on otherwise stay and continue living in the same mournful tone for a few years more. You will probably receive influences from persons whose sign is Scorpio or whose ascendant is Scorpio.
LIBRA (Sept.22-Oct.22) - JUSTICE
This week signifies a brilliant period for you, Libras as your archetypal card also happens to be your personal. So, you will be given a great opportunity to shine and dazzle everyone with your charms. Anyway, the truth is that you are quite a charming one, maybe the most charming among all other signs of the zodiac.
As it seems, the time of justice has come for you and this is your chance to bring your finances as well as your career with your personal life in a balance.
Just try to be fair but not completely fair. Avoid obstinacy as it never leads to anything good.
You may receive some direct influence of someone who belongs in the same sign with you or whose ascendant is Libra.
SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov.22) - STRENGTH
Generally Scorpions are signs that do not have a very good relationship with cowardice but lately perhaps something or someone has cut their wings.
Obviously they feel that they have the strength to succeed and the courage to overcome the obstacles but something seems to be really holding them back. I believe that it is the dominance of the water element which does not allow them to be arrogant especially when they are under the fire of those who are arrogant and who try to weaken them. If you are a Scorpio and you ''have too much water'', then these lines really concern you.
There are not many options left for you at the moment, other than being stuck in the corner. It’s time to feel confident again and take care of your mental and your physical health.
Do not feel offended and do not overreact to anything that the others say or do to you at work or home. Where is your calm but dominant nature of power? It’s there and you don’t need to get it back.
You may receive some direct influence from someone who belongs to the sign of Leo or whose ascendant is Leo.
SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 23-Dec.21) - THE SUN
Maybe you belong - along with Gemini and Libra – to the most favoured ones of the week.
This period will be very creative, full of family happiness and satisfaction in your career field, also.
You will generally experience a calm phase in your life which also may be a bit boring.
Enjoy this calmness now because who knows when you might be disturbed again ... It’s really nice under the warm sun but don’t get too comfy.
Stay directly focused to achieve your next goal.
CAPRICORN (Dec.22-Jan.19) - THE EMPRESS
This week you will experience pleasant and beautiful moments with people you love, but it will also feel, somewhat monotonous being among the others.
Anyway, it is a quite positive and fruitful period, in all its aspects. Your creativity will reach its maximum level, both at work and in your relationships.
Although family is nice and job is also nice, don’t spend so much time at work or at home or inside four, high walls generally. Get out of the fortes and go for a drink with your friends. There is life outside the kingdom you know...
AQUARIUS (Jan.20-Fab.18) - THE HIEROPHANT
I admit that this card wouldn’t easily describe your psyche, in almost any circumstances. But I believe that this card certainly describes a phase you experience which has created to you inner conflicts because of a very narrow-minded or stereotypical behaviour of a certain person.
Obviously this person is at your working environment, but if it is not there and he/she is at home, then probably it is an old woman or an old man trying to put you on the path of wisdom. Too many addictions or impulsive behaviours lately?
Okay, you have the right to make mistakes and be wrong. However, admit your mistakes and listen to what people who represent the voice of reason want to say to you. People who love you really care about your own good and development. So, let them speak freely and decide later without arguing loudly.
You may experience possible influences from persons whose sign is Taurus or from persons whose ascendant is Taurus.
PISCES (Feb.19-Mar.20) - THE JUDGEMENT
It's time to take a final decision on a matter that you work a long time on your mind. The issue is not difficult but your final decision is difficult because you constantly think of the consequences.
In fact, there are no adverse consequences either for you or for those around you. You just have this habit to procrastinate, so it is not strange that you hesitate to take a final decision.
The real problem is that whenever you want to make a new step - whether it's a new career opportunity or a new acquaintance – you have already ruled that the result is exactly as you imagined - ie negative - in your mind.
Time to make a step in a more optimistic mindset…what do you think?
*as always, this tarot reading - like all my readings - is custom and the low makes me state that it is written only for informative purposes.
