Hi friends,
Welcome back to All In The Cards! I gave myself an impromptu week off last week — I hope you didn’t miss your readings too much! I feel much more inspired and prepared to write after a week of seeing friends outside, good food, and lots of time ruminating on my inner child.
Today (Sunday) is a new moon in Aries, which signals passionate fresh starts and nourishing your inner child. As the baby of the Zodiac, Aries calls on you to examine your decisions from the standpoint of your youngest self. Would 13-year-old you think that what you’re doing today is super cool? What happened to 13-year-old you that makes you process situations the way that you do?
The new moon in Aries calls you to recognize and reconcile, bravely and boldly, the parts of you that are hurting so you can move forward. I’ve been thinking a lot about how 13-year-old me learned a lot about being open and honest with my loved ones. I have always been somewhat of an open book. But lately, I’ve been called to recognize the difference between being honest and being vulnerable. You can be honest while keeping your vulnerable parts in the shadows.
For me, it’s easy to be brave when speaking about the truth of difficult situations in my life (witnessing violence, my impending cancer diagnosis, my mental health struggles). But when it comes to being vulnerable about the stuff I’m not so confident in — what I truly want out of relationships, my relationship with my body, my goals for the future… I skirt the issue entirely. I’m hoping that even saying this here, to a group of predominantly strangers, will encourage me to be more specifically vulnerable with new people. I’m hoping it helps call in love, peace, and clarity to my life.
Cheers to the Aries new moon and whatever you’re choosing to call in this week.

Your readings for the week…
Aries: Five of Pentacles Reversed
You’re overcoming adversity this week, Aries, and I’m so glad to see you out on top. You may find yourself reconciling with someone who hurt you, stepping into some money you were owed, invited to spend more time with folks you miss. Take every opportunity as it comes. This is a week to say “Yes!”
Taurus: King of Cups
You’re in control of your emotions this week, Taurus, which is a much-welcomed agency in your life. Folks, of course, will turn to you for emotional support, and you’ll have the spoons to spare on them. Be kind to anyone you see struggling, and tell your people you love them. Be an emotional leader.
Gemini: Knight of Wands
Exciting energy this week! You’re feeling passionate and inspired to get shit done, and almost nothing can stand in your way. You’ve got your eye on the prize and are going to make something happen. Literally anything! You want action from every angle and success at the end of the line. Take care not to do anything too reckless.
Cancer: Knight of Pentacles Reversed
Slow-moving week at work, I’m afraid, Cancer. You might find yourself struggling to get motivated to work, while other Cancers may find it impossible not to work and take a break. Either way, I think it’s safe to say all work and no play makes Cancer a very dull crab. Take some time this week to do something that centers you in feeling yourself. Inspiration often comes that way for you!
Leo: Justice
Something is going right for you right now, and it feels like it’s been a long time coming. Recognition at work, in an important relationship, in your therapy efforts, any of these things. You’ve been putting in the work, and now is the time to see the blessed results roll in. Take care to make decisions this week from an unbiased eye and see situations for what they truly are, not through rose-colored lenses.
Virgo: Eight of Swords
Feeling a little trapped this week? It’s that eight of swords energy. It’s easy to feel like you have no options when you’ve been blindfolded to the reality of the situation. What would the world look like if you took off the blindfold of the anxiety you’re wearing? I think you might find the situation not to be so dire; you might find you’re divinely protected after all.
Libra: Five of Cups Reversed
You’re starting to see the bright side of a difficult situation and reconciling that while things may be bad, there is still so much to be grateful for. You’re ready to make peace with whatever was causing you pain and move forward with life with a glass-half-full mentality. I wish you the best of luck!
Scorpio: Three of Swords
This week might be a hard one, Scorpio, and my heart goes out to you. Some Scorpios may be suffering a major setback in love, others with job difficulties, others with the loss of identity or purpose. My best advice to you is, “This too shall pass.” You’re on your way to the next thing, whether or not it feels like it at this very moment.
Sagittarius: Queen of Wands
You are a guiding light for those around you, especially those at work or collaborating with you on creative pursuits. There’s something about your unshakeable passion and vision that calls people to trust you. This week, you might be called to lead a group of people into the next stage of this vision of yours. Go boldly!
Capricorn: Ten of Cups Reversed
Have you been feeling disconnected from your people lately, Capricorn? Doubting if love is for you after all? Wondering if you’re ever going to get that proverbial happy ending? Well, yes, of course, you are. You’re destined for divine love! But this week, try to focus on rebuilding the bonds you have with your support system. They’ll be here to help you through this hard part.
Aquarius: The Chariot Reversed
Things seemed to be moving quickly forward with your life, but lately, you’ve found you hit an unexpected roadblock (or two, or three). This may have caused you to want to move forward at all costs, even when you know the situation isn’t right for you. This week, try to take a step back and live in this moment. What direction do you want life to take you in? How can you holistically get there?
Pisces: Nine of Pentacles
All is right in the world for you this week, Pisces. You’re coming into your own at work and home, feeling delightfully centered. Abundance is coming at you in all earthly sectors: finances, home, material luxuries. Buy yourself something nice — you deserve it after all the hard work you’ve put in! And don’t stop working hard because your ultimate goal is right around the corner.
