This week, honesty is key.
A Full Moon in Scorpio on the 23rd will bring our emotions into focus, helping us connect with some of our most authentic inner desires and feelings.
Plus, Mercury goes direct in Aries on the 25th, ending our time in this intense retrograde and propelling us forward into clarity and fuller understanding.
In other words, it’s go time for emotional honesty, self-reflection, and expressing our needs clearly and openly.
We’ve consulted the Tarot to see how this energy may affect you on a more personal level!
Change is in the air, but it looks different now.
Weekly Tarotscope for April 22 – 28, 2024
Aries
Page of Wands
Aries experienced the vibe of the bold, outgoing, and expressive Knight of Wands card last week and is continuing the trend this week with something just as bright and exciting.
The Page of Wands may not be as action-focused and direct as the Knight, but this card is just as passionate, whimsical, and expressive.
However, one key difference is where you may feel drawn to direct that passion and energy. Whereas the Knight calls you to be more specific and intentional, the Page can be more adventurous and spontaneous.
Either way, you’re still called to go with the flow of your instincts, share what’s on your heart, and show up confidently and boldly.
Taurus
7 of Wands (Reversed)
Taurus, you may need to take a very intentional breather this week.
The 7 of Wands suggests that you’ve been exerting a lot of effort and all on your own, too. You may have felt like everything needs to be an independent battle fought all alone.
Reversed, this card asks you to take a break, pause, and re-evaluate how much effort you actually need to be exerting right now.
If you’re not careful, you may fight your way right into burnout… not a victory.
Gemini
9 of Wands
Gemini’s week is all about sitting in steady, intentional observation.
With the 9 of Wands, you’re withdrawing some of your energy so that you can steadily focus and observe your surrounding circumstances and environments.
This energy isn’t just about sitting and doing nothing — it’s actually going to take a lot of effort from your end to healthily sustain.
So remember that even though the vibe right now may feel quiet, you’re still going to need a lot of rest and self-care for the amount of work you’re doing right now.
Cancer
The Emperor
Cancer is connecting deeply with their Cardinal roots this week.
After all, the sign of the crab is a leader at heart, even if Cancers aren’t always known for a “traditionally” loud and expressive form of leadership.
The Emperor shows you standing in your power, calling the shots, and being seen as a beacon of stability and leadership right now for yourself and those around you too.
What do you want to build, create, and fortify for the future? This week is the week to make those decisions.
Leo
Page of Pentacles (Reversed)
It’s not an easy week for any Leo trying to make tangible, productive progress in work, career, or finances.
The Page of Pentacles reversed shows difficulties in making practical steps forward, especially with any projects and career-focused areas of life that are still in their beginning stages.
You may have a lot of questions and open-ended concerns about these things right now, but not enough solutions or answers.
As frustrating as it may feel to be falling behind, it’s important not to rush to any major decisions or force yourself into over-exerting effort right now.
Virgo
2 of Swords
Virgo has come to an important crossroads in their life right now.
The 2 of Swords indicates that a decision has to be made, and Virgo is still not sure which path or choice is the “right” one.
Virgos are known for their practical, can-do, and adaptable presence, seemingly always certain about what to do and where to go next. As such, this time of indecision can be particularly uncomfortable for you.
However, no human being knows everything all the time, and it’s important not to punish yourself for feeling the struggle of indecision. Be patient and kind with yourself right now, Virgo.
Libra
2 of Wands
Libra is headed for a fun time of expansion, adventure, and horizons broadening!
The 2 of Wands can be a positive omen for Libras looking to travel or literally move around the world right now, expanding horizons in a more literal way.
On the other hand, it can just be a positive signal for any Libra who is trying to improve themselves and their life, look at new projects, and operate creatively and passionately.
What adventures will you seek this week, Libra?
Scorpio
Queen of Wands
Scorpio is taking up a confident, expressive, and creative mantle this week.
The Queen of Wands shows you being in your confident, bold, and independent power right now.
This is a great sign for Scorpios pursuing anything entrepreneurial (whether career-wise or in personal projects) and for Scorpios who just need a solid week to make independent decisions, handle creative works, and organize nourishing social outings.
 How will you use this fun, exciting, and revitalizing energy?
Sagittarius
2 of Cups (Reversed)
Sagittarius is looking at their relationships this week with a thoughtful, meticulous eye.
The 2 of Cups reversed spotlights any relationship issues that may have been lingering previously, making this week more fragile for emotional conversations and connections.
On the other hand, this spotlighting can really illuminate any weak spots or issues that need to be resolved before they worsen, forcing you to contemplate your needs and expectations.
Although this energy may not seem very fun, it can definitely be productive.
Capricorn
The Fool (Reversed)
Capricorn is resisting changes, but the changes aren’t resisting you!
In other words, The Fool reversed indicates that new beginnings, fresh starts, and strange, foreign adventures are knocking on your door even though you may not feel fully ready.
Some Capricorns may just be averse to starting something new right now (blaming it on bad timing, for example), and others may feel nervous at the thought of branching outside of their comfort zone.
However, a little change won’t hurt you, Capricorn. Be open to saying “yes” this week to something new.
Aquarius
6 of Swords (Reversed)
Aquarius needs to break off into their own path, but the road there isn’t always easy.
The 6 of Swords calls you to a time of transition and leaps of faith, pushing away from the old and venturing bravely into the unknown.
Reversed, this card indicates some resistance from your end or perhaps just some second-guessing about whether leaving everything behind is really all that smart.
Sometimes, it’s not about having the assurance that where you’re going is going to be completely right, but having the assurance that where you currently are is no longer serving you.
Pisces
The Devil
Pisces is focusing very intently on anything that may still be holding them back before venturing into anything completely new.
The Devil shows you examining baggage, burdens, and old memories with intensity and honesty.
Now is a time to thoughtfully consider what parts of yourself and your life are just relics of the past and being held onto due to familiarity or what is genuinely something worth keeping.
This time of intentional, serious, and emotionally engaging honesty may be difficult in the meantime, but it will be rewarding in the long run.
