What does the week have in store? Your tarot horoscope reading for July 27 to August 2

Get ready for a new week (Picture: Getty/Metro.co.uk) July ends with a Full Moon in Aquarius and a Saturn retrograde, which signals competing forces are at play. On the one hand, this week, you may feel like giving up on ‘adulting’, cutting class, and heading someplace no one can find you, just to escape and be indulgent. On the other hand, you may find yourself surging with motivation to declutter, reorganise, streamline and upgrade all of your career activities, finances, home administration and daily scheduling. Which ‘self’ wins? Maybe both can co-exist. Maybe this is a week to do what you feel as and when you feel like it. Let the tarot cards guide you towards what might be in store.

Tarot card for Aries for this week: The Sun Meaning: It’s going to be a great week, Aries! Buckle up for a wild ride, just how you like it, with plenty of love, friendship, travel, sunny good times, and success along the way. It’s a case of where your attention goes, your energy flows. So whatever you put your effort and conviction into, that’s what you’ll get back, that’s what will manifest. The Sun amplifies and accelerates your energy, so make sure you’re focusing it in areas you want to blossom and grow. Look out for Leo folk, they will be good fun for you this week. Anything you really want to do, but feel it’s out of reach, just go for it anyway, because this is a week where magic can happen.

And not on a surface or habitual level either. You are looking in the mirror and really questioning yourself, each morning, what it is you want to achieve, discover, enjoy or experience. It’s a conscious process at the moment, rather than just going through the motions. Time is your greatest gift and asset. Nothing is more precious. You feel this, in your bones, and you’re changing how you spend your time. It’s making a difference.

Nope. Well, Gemini, use the duelling cosmic forces at play this week to force open a liminal space or moment that you can step into, outside of ordinary reality, and just let go. You have pent up and suppressed all of the ‘big’ emotions flowing through you and they’re getting bottlenecked. This won’t end anyplace good, so do something pro-active to unleash them. Be alone, listen to sad songs, watch a weepy, look at photos… provoke yourself to start the process of letting this heaviness drop and flow away. An emotional purge is due. You will feel so much better afterwards.

That’s a good idea. Even if you don’t follow their advice, you at least have something to rebel or push back against. This week, seek that expert voice. Look for a professional, an influence, a coach, a mentor or a sounding board. Find out what they would do here… and put that into your thought process. Can you just poach it and go? Does it need tweaking? Get outside help and you will sail through this week smoother and faster.

Are you being treated and remunerated fairly? Be honest! The Eight of Coins asks you to work hard, work harder, be even more determined and diligent. And also to ensure you are receiving what you should for your efforts. Otherwise, you will run out of motivation and feel frustrated and resentful. This week, with all the cosmic chaos going on and commercial Saturn on the move, you can ask for what you want and just about get it! This is a week to apply, pitch, challenge and demand. Make your case, prove your worth, get your rewards. You will feel so proud for doing this. It’s worth it, to prove it to yourself.

But not you, Virgo. You have your s*** together and this makes you the lynchpin, the rock, the magnet this week. Expect a relationship boom! You are attractive, worldly, and you know how to run your life — everyone wants a piece of that. New romances, friendships, family ties, and alliances will emerge, and you can be choosy and take your pick. Go where the energy is reciprocal, where they give as well as take. It’s a week to enjoy the admiration and attention of others. Bask in the glow.

But it’s all good, Libra, so anytime you feel sad, or regretful, or doubtful, or confused… just pause and look at your wonderful life through the eyes of an outsider and count your blessings. Gratitude is your superpower this week. It will keep the blues at bay, make you feel secure, and attract more things (because the Universe likes to give more to those who already appreciate what they have been given). Fall in love with your own life.

Chaos creates new openings and chinks in the armour that weren’t there when all was stable and predictable. Watch closely. Spot the movements. See the openings. And pounce. You can drastically improve your position and prospects this week with some well-timed conversations, requests, favours, applications and pitches. Notice, move closer, act with intent. A promotion, a move, an upgrade, a new opportunity… all are possible when you take advantage of the changing situations around and adjacent to you.

Don’t look to outside forces to excuse, write off, or justify stuff that, actually, you are in control of. Not least because it diminishes your power. Own it. Take accountability. Other people aren’t watching, keeping score or making judgements. They’re all too busy trying to keep their heads above water. So, you have freedom and space to do what you wish. No one is watching! Be wild. Be free. Work hard. Play harder. This is a week to disentangle yourself from other narratives and be a total Main Character.

A triple whammy! So, time to take your ambition/s seriously. Time to activate that big ambition, chase the dream, eye up the goal, make your power moves. Hold yourself accountable for creating the life you want to live, for others to envy, for folk to say ‘what a success!’ Let yourself indulge in these fantasies… and then make moves that get you closer to them being a reality. Nothing is off limits. Nothing is out of reach. You work harder and smarter that anyone other sign, if you can’t achieve it, no one can! Rise.

And it overspills into you wanting to make a clean breast of it with folk. You want to ensure your commitments are overt, known, understood and reciprocated — be that in love, family, friendship or alliance. You have a habit of hedging your bets and staying on the outside, but you want in this week. After all, that’s where things happen. Being committed doesn’t restrict your freedoms, because new decisions can always be made, it just lets you take full advantage of the support, strengths and collaboration available to you when you’re aligned with another. Draw close to your key advocates and play like a team. Sky’s the limit.

Have you overextended yourself or your remit? Are you doing things for people that are actually not your accountability? Are folk taking advantage? Should you recalibrate some of these bonds? Hell yes. The Emperor is full permission to redraw the boundaries, set new standards, and ask for responsibilities to be fully taken up by those who own them. Do less. Focus on you more. Be a little bit distant. Time to take back your power and use it for your own ends.
