Aries(Mar. 21–Apr. 19)
10 of Cups/The Empress,reversed
If a happy family is something you want or care about having, there are changes that must be made. Happiness is an illusion, out of reach for those who don't appreciate or see the value in those they supposedly love. If you don't recognize the part you play in giving selflessly to others, with no expectations of anything in return, you will never experience the joy of receiving it. Cherish those you love for who they are, not for what they can do for you. Nurture relationships you care about or lose them forever. Do these things because you value the hearts and souls of people and the feelings they have, not because of any ulterior motives to get something from them or to showcase your ability to bend them to your will through manipulation. Use your power of persuasion to lift others up, not to tear them down.

Taurus(Apr. 20–May 20)
The Tower,reversed/Temperance
A traumatic event has occurred. So often in life these tragedies deal devastating blows to us from which we feel we can never recover. People are resilient. We can recover. We take the time to be shocked, sad, outraged and then we pick ourselves up, salvage what's left of the wreckage, and get on with it. We must take a step back and take stock of the situation from as neutral of a perspective as we can muster. What can we learn from this situation? What can we now do to help others who may be going through the same thing? A balancing of our emotions, thoughts, and fears is required in order to move forward. We must temper our anxieties, quell our insecurities, ground ourselves in our true power to gain the strength to push through.

Gemini(May 21–June 21)
The Emperor/4 of Wands
No matter how hard you try to control every aspect of every situation, it is virtually impossible to control the universe and the people in it. Free will abounds and the decisions of others will not always please you. You may have done it differently, you may know that hardships wouldn't have to occur if others just did things the way you do them. A celebration is in order and you can support and encourage the decision that's already been made, or you can suck the joy out of it by remaining stoic and stuck in your own system of rules and regulations, thereby alienating someone you care about deeply. The choice is yours. People will go on with or without you, as they must learn their own lessons in their own time and in their own way. I'm pretty sure they would rather have your acceptance, your love and your guidance on their journey.

Cancer(June 22–July 22)
The Sun/The King of Wands
Things are looking up for you this month! You have made some wise decisions and taken the time to not only put them into action, but to bring them to fruition. Your strength and fortitude are paying off now. Keep the passion and don't lose sight of the goal. You're on the right track so just keep going.

Leo(July 23–Aug. 22)
Judgement/Page of Cups, reversed
You are being called to recognize and realize your full potential now. It's time for an awakening of sorts where your spirituality can transcend all obstacles. The parts of you where you have doubts may be a result of things you did or experiences you had when you were much, much younger. Acknowledge them, take what lessons you learned from them, and then let them go. They no longer serve you. New experiences are on the horizon and you will approach them in an entirely new way with entirely different outlook, as you have outgrown the old ways of thinking with limiting beliefs. Embrace the change. The opportunity for growth is here should you choose to accept it.

Virgo(Aug. 23–Sept. 22)
2 of Cups/Page of Swords
Is it a new love or a rekindling of an existing one? Love transcends all things. Acceptance, stability, the realization of what is and is not important transmutes any little doubts or irritations. At the core of any lasting relationship is the honesty and truth of a pure heart. Recognize this truth in the beginning, and it will see you through until the very end.

Libra(Sept. 23–Oct. 23)
Queen of Pentacles/8 of Pentacles
To outsiders looking in your success seems to come so easily. You make everything seem so effortless. You are surrounded by everything you need now on this earthly plane, but it isn't just "things" you have acquired. Your strength of character is much more valuable to you than any of the material possessions you have obtained. Everything you are now is a result of years of hard work, sacrifice, and lessons learned. You are grateful for every experience and what it has taught you and you have not become bitter or resentful as a result of any of it. Your acceptance of and gratitude towards anyone and everyone is one of the key underlying factors which have brought you the success you have now. You know what it took to get where you are. Don't lose sight of how far you've come. The opinions of outsiders is really irrelevant when you know exactly who you are.

Scorpio(Oct. 24–Nov. 21)
6 of Cups/6 of Swords,reversed
This time of year has a tendency to transport our thoughts into the past where things seemed easier or happier. In many cases, the nostalgia brought on by the happiest memories of childhood can be a good thing. Bringing forth traditions and positive experiences to be carried on into the next generation is appropriate and commendable. Placing sentimental value on objects or festivities is a wonderful part of the holiday experience. In other cases, nostalgia can lead to a glossing over of what the reality of those years actually was. There are times when memories must be just that, memories of happier times gone by. They can't always be replicated. This is a time to put things in the proper perspective. Take the things that served you well and bring the traditions with you as time goes on, but leave the unsavory parts of he past in the past. There is no need to revisit hard times and relive them over and over in your mind. Do not let the past stop you from enjoying the present and moving into a much happier future. What's done is done, and it was done for a reason. Don't let your progress be derailed by nostalgic memories that you've somehow altered into only good ones, if they weren't. This is a temporary blip in your current situation. Everything is as it should be.

Sagittarius(Nov. 22–Dec. 21)
The High Priestess/5 of Wands
Rise above the petty bickering. Remember who you are during these times of holiday strife. In the grand scheme of things none if it really matters and it's just temporary. With all the holiday festivities and gatherings of family and friends from times gone by it's easy to become absorbed in all the little things that bring about conflict, but it really isn't necessary. Let those around you behave in the self destructive manners to which they have become accustomed. If they haven't changed by now, they probably won't. It isn't really your responsibility to make them see the light. Lead by example, if they want your help they will ask for it. Carry on and enjoy the moments that are most important to you. The rest will fall into place.

Capricorn(Dec. 22–Jan. 19)
Two of Pentacles/Knight of Cups
Your guard is up or at least it should be. You are balancing a lot at the moment, and you or someone you care about are about to be blindsided if you don't pay attention. They say fools rush in, sometimes that's true especially where love is concerned. When you are busy is the best time for someone to strike. They think you aren't paying attention and you might not notice what's going on. Beware the motivations of others at this time. Take time to listen and to watch in order to get a true picture. The Knight is swooping in, and maybe not with the best of long term intentions. If he had a firm grasp on things, he would be a King.

Aquarius(Jan. 20–Feb. 18)
4 of Swords,reversed/4 of Pentacles
You've been resting for quite some time and with good reason. You've been through quite a lot and it's taken time to get your strength back in more ways than one. You are now beginning to come out of this resting phase. Take your time, there is no rush. Healing is a process. It takes as long as it takes. Part of that process is guarding parts of yourself which have been harmed in some way. You have every right to feel protective of everything that is yours whether it's heart, mind, soul or body. Take care of yourself and rely on those who have your best interests at heart for as long as you need them until you regain a solid footing. They want what's best for you, they are always there for you. Even though you are so strong and resilient, you still need love and support and there's nothing wrong with that. Give people the gift of allowing them to be there for you when you need them. It will make them happy and you will feel so loved, because you are.

Pisces(Feb. 19–Mar. 20)
9 of Cups/3 of Wands
Your wishes are all coming true. You've cast your hopes into the aethers and now you are waiting for the universe to fulfill your dreams. It's not as simple as that, is it? The manifestation of your desires has taken it's toll. Hard work was involved in some cases and difficult life lessons in others. Happiness and joy don't always come without a price. Sometimes the price is very high. Remember the cost, acknowledge it, and release it. Do not dwell on it. You deserve happiness as do those around you who have suffered. Embrace and cherish each moment of it for as long as you can.
