Aries March 21 to April 20 Bigger is better here (Picture: Getty/Metro.co.uk) Tarot card for Aries for this week: Two of Coins Meaning: You have come to realise that you’re actually, in truth, a larger than life character and your life should therefore feel bombastic, epic, action-packed, high octane.

Potentially a new lover, or best friend, a new creative role or game-changing idea. This is major, this is life changing, this is fulfilling and rewarding. And it all sparks in an instant, so pay attention to immediate chemistries and attractions, to brainwaves and bright sparks, to moments of clarity and epiphany. Something is brewing.

(Picture: Getty/Metro.co.uk) Tarot card for Gemini for this week: Ten of Coins Meaning: You are the fastest-moving, most responsive, proactive and flexible sign. But that has a double edge to it, which is that you don’t often plan or act for the long-term future. Right now though, that is exactly where your mercurial mind is at. You are thinking a decade ahead. Looking at what is changing so fast around you. Imagining future scenarios. Prioritising what really matters to you. Daydreaming your ideals. And this all boils back down to a new long-term plan of action that will get you there. Focus on this planning this week, take first steps. The future is coming… Head here for everything you need to know about being a Gemini Cancer June 22 to July 23 Trust yourself the way others do (Picture: Getty/Metro.co.uk) Tarot card for Cancer for this week: Strength Meaning: You’ve come to realise just how strong, capable, and resilient you are. You might feel all the emotions along the way, you might break down… but you always get up and keep going, and do for others along the way too. You are powerful. You make a difference. Your presence is noticed and valued. So, remember this, and take on something that only a strong person would do. The reward outweighs the risk because you’re built to handle it. Push yourself towards a goal that is worth testing yourself against. You can do it. You can do anything.

It’s just what Leos become, sooner or later, even if they start out shy and doubtful, humble or frail. They grow, they get smarter, they step up, they prove stuff to themselves. And they naturally take the mantle when others hesitate — which people naturally trust them to do. You are moving into your Leader Era now. Don’t fight it. Step up and take charge wherever you find confusion, doubt, ambiguity or chaos. You were made for this, and the rewards will flow back in. Wealth and power await.

You are realising you are a gifted person, that you don’t need to wait any longer, or prepare any further — you can just jump in and showcase what you’ve got, right here and now! Utilise your talents and improvise the rest. Necessity is the mother of invention. It’s time to activate a new role, pitch, idea or scheme that makes you richer, makes you happier, and plays to every one of your many, mutable strengths. Head here for everything you need to know about being a Virgo Libra September 24 to October 23 It’s play time (Picture: Getty/Metro.co.uk) Tarot card for Libra for this week: Queen of Wands Meaning: All work and no play makes Libra a dull sign… ain’t that the truth, especially for you as you’re ruled by Venus which is the planet of pleasure. It’s time for an adventure! This is not frivolous or indulgent, this is simply what you need to reenergise yourself to do all the other adulting you’ve got to attend to. Set a new goal, travel, book a trip, join the class, arrange the reunion, attend the party. Do whatever social, creative, playful or adventurous thing that floats your boat this week! You have permission to take a time out.

Slow, steady, consistent power moves actually build a stronger foundation, halo, and trajectory. And this is what you’re interested in right now. Start looking at your health, wealth, work, and home, and ask yourself what long-term goals would be met by daily small steps that amount to that big, bold leap over time. Figure it out. Schedule your steps. Start. This is the way forwards.

You sometimes spend so long seeking what you don’t have that you almost forget what you possess. And now you remember. Now you can make more of what’s there, reuse things, celebrate known entities and successes, build on them, create magic with folk you trust and have your back. You are truly wealthy in all the ways that count, and you know it.

And it leads to immediate moves, decisions, and actions that all conspire to create a future lifestyle you’re yearning to lead. It all happens by design. It all happens because it starts in your imagination, is pressure-tested by your practical brain, and then scheduled into steps and actions by your determined personality. Look ahead. Build the dream. Stride towards it. The plan starts now.

The time to play a bold hand and take a chancy gamble is here. Whatever you prioritise and put energy into is going to pay back. Ask yourself what you’d do if you knew it would be successful? Well, that’s exactly what you should do! Travel, alliance, creativity, bold goals, education and goal-setting are all in play… mix and match the ingredients and take a giant leap towards something glittering.

You don’t even long to, like you maybe once did. They can take care of themselves. Not your problem. You also think you should probably be more fully and authentically your true self, speak up your opinions, and pursue your real desires and interests. Why not? What else would you be doing? Falling into someone else’s gameplan, no doubt. It’s time to rise. To be ruthless. To put YOU first. Let them deal with it. It’s about time.
