Your Weekly Tarot Card Reading: December 12–18, 2022

Kerry Ward shares cosmic guidance by pulling a tarot card for each zodiac sign and for you all as a collective. Whether you’re a tarot newbie or a daily devotee, this week’s reading highlights what you need to focus on, where to slow down, and how to capture the best of the celestial energies swirling around you.

A General Card for Everyone: Two of Wands

Pause and re-evaluate. The Two of Wands appears this week as a call for collective assessment. Take a moment to look at your to-do list, reassess your priorities, and observe where your energy is actually going. Some obligations may have arisen by habit, not necessity, and tasks may feel urgent that truly aren’t. This card recommends:

  • Review your commitments with fresh eyes
  • Tweak and refine your plans for better flow
  • Let go of stale or unnecessary responsibilities
  • Embrace “less is more”—and create space for what matters

Zodiac-Specific Tarot Guidance for the Week

Read the tarot message for your Sun sign first, but don’t forget your Rising and Moon for a more nuanced outlook. Here’s what the cards want you to know:

Aries: Page of Swords

Seize the initiative. You’ve hesitated long enough over a choice or idea. The Page of Swords signals it’s time to take the leap—say yes to that budding relationship, project, or ambition. Now is the moment for action, not analysis. Show commitment and embrace what unfolds.

  • Stop second-guessing—move forward decisively
  • Channel your natural bravery into trying something new
  • Progress is made by doing, not deliberating

Taurus: Six of Wands

Celebrate your achievements. The Six of Wands is the victory card; you have worked hard and now deserve to bask in your success. Don’t just pass over your wins—acknowledge them and let others share in your happiness.

  • Reward yourself for your efforts
  • Recognize and uplift others also thriving around you
  • Spread positive feedback—kindness nurtures more success

Gemini: The Tower

Transformation through disruption. If things seem to fall apart this week, trust there’s a higher purpose. The Tower brings sudden shifts or upsets, but these shake-ups clear the path for something better. It’s a lesson in resilience and realism.

  • Accept changes—even uncomfortable ones—as catalysts for growth
  • Extract the wisdom from challenges and move forward stronger
  • Let go of what no longer serves your evolution

Cancer: Three of Cups

Embrace togetherness. This week’s energy is ripe for celebration, reunion, and friendship. The Three of Cups urges you to reconnect with loved ones, share joy, and nurture your bonds. Community brings comfort and strength now.

  • Reach out to friends or family for support and celebration
  • Say yes to invitations—serendipity blooms in company
  • Express gratitude for the people who lift you up

Leo: King of Pentacles

Build lasting security. The King of Pentacles asks you to ground yourself in stability—financially, professionally, and personally. You have what it takes to thrive; use your resources wisely and plan for longevity.

  • Make strategic moves in money and career matters
  • Offer guidance or mentorship to those who seek your expertise
  • Value reliability—yours and others’—as the foundation of success

Virgo: The Hermit

Seek solitude for insight. With The Hermit, it’s time to look within. A break from the noise empowers you to reconnect with your intuition. Use this week for introspection, research, or spiritual practice.

  • Prioritize solo time for clarity and regrouping
  • Engage in meditation, journaling, or quiet study
  • Trust your inner wisdom rather than outside opinions

Libra: Ten of Pentacles

Think long term. The Ten of Pentacles illuminates matters of home, family, and legacy. A focus on stability, inheritance, or security underpins the week. Consider how your actions fit into a broader legacy for those you care about.

  • Plan for the future and safeguard your foundations
  • Celebrate traditions and connect with family roots
  • Evaluate investments or property with a pragmatic eye

Scorpio: Knight of Wands

Pursue passions boldly. Impulsivity, drive, and charisma rule your week under the Knight of Wands. Channel your energy into creative projects or adventures, but avoid reckless haste.

  • Follow where your excitement leads—but ground your actions where needed
  • Take initiative on ideas you’ve simmered on
  • Avoid burning bridges or acting before thinking

Sagittarius: Nine of Pentacles

Relish independence. Sagittarius, you’re encouraged to enjoy the rewards of your labor. The Nine of Pentacles points to self-sufficiency, comfort, and satisfaction. Treat yourself, but continue investing in personal growth.

  • Create a sanctuary—literally or emotionally—that brings you peace
  • Savor alone time and the fruits of your work
  • Consider how you can mentor others seeking the same

Capricorn: Nine of Swords

Share your worries. The Nine of Swords indicates anxiety and overthinking. Capricorn, you’ve been internalizing stress—don’t bottle it up. Find a trusted confidant and express what’s on your mind. Voicing concerns lessens their sting, and most fears turn out smaller than imagined.

  • Talk about your worries—verbalizing them relieves their burden
  • Practice techniques to counter negative thought patterns
  • Prioritize self-care and gentleness this week

Aquarius: Knight of Swords

Lead with clarity. The Knight of Swords’ directness matches your outspoken, proactive nature. Take charge—address challenges swiftly and assertively. Your candidness is needed to cut through confusion or hesitation, but keep empathy in your delivery.

  • Be bold in pursuing solutions
  • Use your voice to advocate for yourself and others
  • Act promptly on critical decisions

Pisces: Strength

Embody resilience. Pisces, you emerge from adversity tougher and wiser. The Strength card shows you’re learning to fiercely guard your boundaries and put yourself first. Your kindness is your asset—and so is your resolve.

  • Assert your needs; don’t let others take advantage
  • Reflect on how difficult times have fortified you
  • Nurture the balance between compassion and self-protection
