The Aquarius Full Moon this week opens the way to releasing emotional attachments to old ideas or labels that no longer define who we are.
It’s a time to challenge the status quo with consideration and compassion, but firmness too. Making ripples that ease your passing, not waves that hold you captive, treading water to survive.
Let’s ask the tarot cards: where in my life am I ready to break free — and how can I do it with balance and integrity?

Aries
March 21 to April 20
Tarot card for Aries for this week: Knight of Wands
Meaning: You need more room for spontaneous, fun, adventurous activity that simply feels good in the moment. Aries folk need this kind of stimulus; it’s the fire in their veins that demands it, otherwise they can feel pent-up and restricted.
Don’t make an argument out of it. Just start setting aside time for fun. Invite those who might disapprove of you and show them a good time! Who could resist you in full flow?

Taurus
April 21 to May 21
Tarot card for Taurus for this week: Queen of Swords
Meaning: You need to think about something important for yourself, on your own terms, and based on your emerging, new values and opinions.
Your mind has changed recently. Your outlook has been updated. Others haven’t caught up to this, and still think you think like they do.
Let your mentality incubate and get stronger, form your case and stance internally, fact-checked and robust. This is a tussle of intellect, don’t let emotion cloud that. All you’re asking for is space to have your own opinion.

Gemini
May 22 to June 21
Tarot card for Gemini for this week: Seven of Swords
Meaning: There are duplicitous and unkind folk in your circle who cling to you, even though they don’t really like you or have good intentions. They feed on your aura and enjoy sabotaging or observing your struggles.
Gemini, for too long, you’ve let these people close to you. It’s time to close the door firmly and fully. Block, detach, quit, sever ties. They deserve it.
They have asked for this time and again. Give them what they’ve asked for. And give yourself peace.

Cancer
June 22 to July 23
Tarot card for Cancer for this week: Six of Swords
Meaning: The Universe is going to open an Exit door for you this week, and you should see the signs and elegantly walk through it. No one will mind, no one will object. This exit has been at least six months in the making, i.e. you’re overthinking it.
Just take the golden opportunity to go without issue. Say goodbye and practice gratitude for what you have learnt or gained here, but know in your heart that this is exactly the right moment to make your departure.
There’s nothing good to be had from remaining in this role/place/relationship. It’s time.

Leo
July 24 to August 23
Tarot card for Leo for this week: Justice
Meaning: You are being treated extremely unfairly, if not even illegally! You are being held hostage by a darker force’s intent and ability to manipulate or emotionally blackmail you to stay where they like you (probably where they can see and control you).
It’s time to end this situation. If you need legal help, get it. At the very least, consult some kind of professional body. Many folks have been through what you’re going through – there’s a playbook already. Find it and use it.

Virgo
August 24 to September 23
Tarot card for Virgo for this week: The Lovers
Meaning: Although you feel great passion and love here, you also resent some of the dynamics and habits you’re prey to here, even if they’re self-created. Use the goodwill you share to have an open and no-holds-barred discussion about it.
Listen more than you talk, but make your words count. Be direct and truthful. And expect a few fireworks or choppy exchanges. But clear the air, say your piece, and make room for the two of you to realign and recalibrate in a better dynamic.

Libra
September 24 to October 23
Tarot card for Libra for this week: Ten of Cups
Meaning: You are in love with someone, or something, and you really want things to be perfect, you have an idealised ‘vision of love’ in your heart that this relationship or role doesn’t always measure up to. And should it?
Maybe if you stopped comparing reality with the ideal, you might accept reality a lot easier. Maybe the ideal isn’t realistic. Maybe you can get what you need that you don’t get here, from other connections, activities, roles or projects. One person can’t fulfil everything! Let go of your expectations and see what happens and how you feel.

Scorpio
October 24 to November 22
Tarot card for Scorpio for this week: Three of Coins
Meaning: People pleasing is exhausting, right? And you’re not typically a people pleaser, you march to your own drum, but recently you’ve had to smooth the way with extra-special attention and consideration to other folks’ needs, ideas, and even whims. Enough.
You have put the effort in, now let them. You have worked hard to create a robust, healthy, positive environment for things to thrive in… and if they don’t, then it’s not on you any longer. It wasn’t meant to be. Find out this week!

Sagittarius
November 23 to December 21
Tarot card for Sagittarius for this week: Eight of Swords
Meaning: You have been comparing yourself to others a lot recently, and assuming or projecting that you know what they think of you. Second-guessing other people’s opinions is exhausting, and usually fruitless because you honestly have no idea what they think (they probably think very little, everyone is too busy agonising over their own realm).
Release this habit this week. Notice yourself doing it, and distract yourself mentally – whether it’s mantras, music, reading – till it goes away! You will feel so much better about yourself.

Capricorn
December 22 to January 21
Tarot card for Capricorn for this week: Knight of Coins
Meaning: Working so hard has got you where you are, but what’s the point of all that effort if you can’t enjoy the spoils of your labour?
This week, let go of your (impossible) demands and standards. Step back and take some time out for you, just to relax and enjoy yourself. Even if it’s just pottering. We all need to decompress, unwind, recalibrate and you’re overdue a tune-up! So, the tarot says be lazy! You have the cosmos’ permission this week.

Aquarius
January 22 to February 19
Tarot card for Aquarius for this week: Two of Wands
Meaning: You are feeling stuck because you’ve kept several options or onwards pathways open and accessible, instead of discerning your best option and executing it. And there’s now too much going on and too many demands pulling you in different directions.
Release the need to keep all of your options open, it’s not realistic. Make a plan. Discuss your priorities. Research the risks or unanswered questions. Decide. Act. Feel a lot clearer and lighter.

Pisces
February 20 to March 20
Tarot card for Pisces for this week: Seven of Wands
Meaning: You are embroiled in some kind of competition, rivalry, feud or target that you really don’t need (or want) to participate in. It’s likely that someone is jealous of you, or is using you as a step to climb up to where they want to be. Pisces, don’t let this continue. Withdraw. Exit. Retreat.
Stop responding. Stop retaliating or giving this airtime. Your silence will quell their need and maybe make them realise this is a little embarrassing on their part!
