As we transition from one month into another this week, the stars and planets will be moving through some important transitions of their own.
Venus, planet of love and beauty, will enter its home sign of Taurus on the 29th. Almost immediately after, Mars (the planet of war, drive, and ambition) will enter its home sign of Aries on the 30th.
And as if there weren’t enough astrological happenings already, Pluto will begin its retrograde in Aquarius on May 2nd, catalyzing us into a time of change, transition, and upheaval.
How will these changes impact your own changes? We’ve tuned into the wisdom of the Tarot to see what the cards had to say!
Weekly Tarotscope for April 29 – May 5, 2024
Aries
The Chariot
Aries is looking at a whole lot of success this week… if they’re willing to take it.
The Chariot is a bright, powerful, and forward-thinking card that spotlights your ambitions and goals; it’s time to seize what you want, ready or not.
With confidence, self-awareness, and enough motivation, this card can indicate you’re on track to achieve some great things this week (especially goals and ideas already on your to-do list).

Taurus
Ace of Wands
Taurus is branching out into new horizons.
The Ace of Wands offers new ideas, fresh starts, and room for expansion in the realm of passions, travel, and entrepreneurial projects.
This opportunity may be tangible and obvious, or it may come in the form of a fleeting idea just passing by.
Either way, it’s important to keep an open mind and heart to the possibilities that may come your way this week.
Gemini
Page of Swords (Reversed)
Gemini, it’s time to be thoughtful and reflective about your next steps.
With the Page of Swords reversed on the table, you may feel compelled to speak up and say what’s on your mind, jump to important conclusions or decisions, or ask questions before thinking.
However, this card warns of being too hasty with these things, prompting you to say or do things that you might regret later.
Watch your steps before taking them, and perhaps even bite your tongue before speaking hastily if necessary.
Cancer
The Devil (Reversed)
Cancer needs to look inward at their true demons, but it’s easier said than done.
The Devil reversed demands self-reflection at a core, serious, and sometimes even deeply unconscious level.
Confronting your own shadows may be uncomfortable, but this is a necessary step to true inner growth (and eventual transformation on the outside, as your circumstances will change to match your vibe, too).
This week is about initiating that radical honesty and shedding light on your own shadows.
Leo
Temperance
It’s time for Leo to find balance, inner peace, and harmony.
Temperance asks you to play the role of balanced, peace-seeking harmonizer right now.
This card is a powerful omen for spiritual prosperity and finding compassion for yourself and others, but it also requires a lot of thoughtfulness, meditation, and honesty in order to maintain.
What will you do to support and nourish this powerful card this week?
Virgo
King of Pentacles
Virgo is on top of their earthly responsibilities this week.
The King of Pentacles shows that Virgos have a firm, clear, and practical command over their finances, career, and skills this week.
Your resources may not be fully in order, and it may still feel like you have a lot to do and take care of. But rest assured that this card says you have what it takes to do the job!
What items will you check off of your to-do list first, Virgo?
Libra
Strength
Libra needs to remember their inner Strength this week — it’ll come in handy!
There’s a light at the end of every tunnel, beauty to be found in every situation, and strength to be found even in times of incredible weakness and difficulty.
That is the essence of the Strength card, and that is the message that Libra needs to hold onto dearly right now.
Your inner resources and perseverance are all that you truly need in order to find success this week; trust yourself!
Scorpio
5 of Wands (Reversed)
Scorpio may be avoiding external chaos in their surroundings but finding a whole other form of chaos within.
The 5 of Wands reversed shows you carefully avoiding drama, conflict, and gossip that exists in your social circles (and perhaps workplace chatter for some Scorpios too).
However, you may still feel the energy that surrounds you… inside of you. Some Scorpios have internalized the chaos and taken it in for themselves.
Take extra time for healing and replenishment this week as you remove the energy that isn’t truly yours.
Sagittarius
Queen of Cups
Sagittarius’ true strengths this week lie in the core of their hearts.
In other words, the Queen of Cups asks you to look internally at your emotional intelligence, your creativity, your imagination, and your intuition.
These resources can often be monumentally underrated and overlooked, especially when the loudest voices in a crowd seem to reign supreme.
But this week, it’s less about what’s being said and more about what’s being felt.
Capricorn
4 of Wands
Capricorn, this week is all about friends, family, and joyful celebration!
The 4 of Wands asks you to focus on your loved ones, find what feels good, and celebrate the little victories.
You may not feel like there’s a whole lot to celebrate, but that’s not the point. This card is less about material wins and more about finding the beauty in your connections themselves, celebrating love and support as it exists.
These little celebrations may be your key to having a week full of light, laughter, and love!
Aquarius
6 of Swords
Aquarius faced off with the 6 of Swords reversed last week, only to find themselves sitting with the same card again this week.
However, this week, you’ll be pleased to notice that the card is now upright, no longer full of resistance and stagnant, foggy vibes.
Now, it is time to fully and bravely move forward into the unknown, even without clear plans or long-term visions in focus.
You may not have all the answers, but this week, you’re still called to channel all the bravery.
Pisces
The Fool
Pisces is finally catching a break this week!
With The Fool on the table for you, you’re headed into a time of adventure, new beginnings, and potentially even travel or changes in location for some Pisces.
This is a solid week for trying new things, saying what’s on your mind, and asking questions (being curious and open-minded).
