Part of tarot’s gift to us is that it reveals who we are.

There are some things that, once revealed, change our lives forever, and there are four zodiac signs (Aries, Taurus, Scorpio, and Aquarius) that are on the cusp of just such a life-changing revelation.

Our tarot reader has created readings for these signs, and the cards represent the following:

  • Working For You: What’s working for you in the present?.
  • Working Against You: What’s working against you in the present?
  • Your Hopes: What you’re hoping for.
  • Your Fears: What you’re afraid of happening.
  • Advice: A Piece of advice on where you might look to go next or how to handle the personal part of the experience.

Aries

Working For You: Nine of Pentacles. All the time that you’ve invested in working extra hours and cultivating the right mindset has started to pay off. The feelings of success that you’re experiencing can help you feel empowered and capable, even in the face of life-changing information.

Working Against You: The Wheel of Fortune. It almost feels as if fate itself is what’s against you. Be clever and patient, the wheel is bound to take a turn.

Your Hopes: Four of Wands. You’re hoping that you’ll finally be able to feel as though you belong, Aries, and that you’re able to celebrate your successes with a celebration large enough to bring all those you care about together.

Your Fears: Knight of Swords. What you’re afraid of is that this revelation will just turn out like yet another crusade of yours, that ultimately leads towards a lot of challenges but not a lot of meaningful gains.

Advice: Knight of Cups. Love always adds, never subtracts. Your ability to love what you do and who you are becoming could help you use the current energy to set you up on a lifelong path of self-discovery.

Taurus

Working For You: Six of Pentacles. You have always been helpful, charitable, and kind. By pouring kindness and abundance into the surrounding community, you’ve cultivated the best in yourself as you’ve encouraged the best in others. This has created a communal sense of kindness, charity, and a lot of experience of the two-way flow of giving and receiving.

Working Against You: Three of Cups. Your kindness and best intentions haven’t shielded you from tension in your relationships. You’ve hit rough spots in some of the key relationships in your life. You feel the distance and tension more keenly because of the revelation that you’re processing. At one time, you felt freer to let down your walls and be vulnerable around people, but your inability to feel secure enough to do so now is working against you.

Your Hopes: Death. You’re hoping you can use all of this momentum to create something earth-shatteringly new. You’re more than ready to let go of what isn’t working and move into new territory.

Your Fears: The Star. You’re afraid of your hope – either the feeling itself feels too scary and too vulnerable, as if what you hope for will burst with you naming it. Or, it might feel as though hope itself is merely a type of disillusionment.

Advice: Five of Swords. There’s a lot of conflict around you, Taurus, and the best way for you to truly deal with this is to face it head-on and attempt to lead those around you out of conflict by your example.

Scorpio

Working For You: Six of Swords, Reversed. You’ve been working on big changes, so the fact that you’re learning something new and revelatory is something you were prepared to deal with. Instead of just moving on, you’re willing to hunker down and do the emotional work to integrate everything you’re learning.

Working Against You: The Magician, Reversed. Part of why you’re so willing to stay is a willingness to be within your comfort zone. You just haven’t been feeling your oagic, Scorpio, and it’s impacting your ability to get things done.

Your Hopes: King of Pentacles. You have faith in your ability to turn situations into gold, and you’re hoping that you’ll be able to do the same in this one. Your ability to recognize how you need to cultivate abundance materially and emotionally is a gift that can light your way.

Your Fears: Queen of Swords, Reversed. There’s a lot of emotional energy in this situation that might trigger some of your shadow traits. You’re concerned that you’ll be tempted to emotionally manipulate the situation now that you have a better idea of what’s going on.

Advice: Eight of Wands. Be willing to take swift and decisive action.

Aquarius

Working For You: Ten of Pentacles. You’ve been careful, fostered strong relationships, and invested your time and your physical assets wisely. The support system that you have cultivated through years of love and abundance is both a comfort and a support to you now.

Working Against You: Temperance, Reversed. Regardless of how supportive your family and friends may be, you still feel overwhelmed and emotionally imbalanced regarding what is being revealed. Instead of fighting this feeling or denying it, give yourself grace; i t’s an understandable reaction, Aquarius. Give yourself grace.

Your Hopes: Five of Wands, Reversed. You’re hoping that as you grow and integrate this new knowledge into your life, you’ll be better equipped to handle the tension and conflicts you’ve been working through.

Your Fears: Seven of Wands. It’s hard to feel like you’re being attacked from all sides, and you’re afraid you’ll find yourself having to defend your every action to everyone you know. You’re scared of the toll that the stress involved in incessantly having to stand your ground and defend yourself and your views will take on you, and the progress you’ve been trying to make.

Advice: Strength. The type of strength you need is resilience, and not physical domination. Be ready to be your best, fiercest advocate.
