The Pluto retrograde has started, which perhaps gives us all a bit of a breather from the grief and trauma we experience at the ‘state of the world’ and a bit of time for our emotions to catch up with what’s already gone off in 2024.
We also get a New Moon in Taurus, time to look at your finances, your security, your home, your safe spaces and make sure they feel safe.
It’s a crazy world, right? So make sure you’ve got your corner of it as safe, secure, comfortable, and protective as possible. Make your realm a sanctuary. Do what you gotta do!
Let the tarot give you an idea of what really matters when it comes to you feeling safe and secure.
Aries
March 21 to April 20
Tarot card for Aries for this week: Queen of Cups
Meaning: Wherever you lay your hat, that’s your home, Aries. You are adaptable and fast-moving, you can make a space feel like home quickly as soon as it fills with your personality.
Therefore, your route towards safety is making sure your emotional wellbeing is taken care of, that you’re expressing yourself, that you have support for your challenges, that you take care of your health, that you seek proper rest. Be pampering and nurturing this week, prioritise your emotional wellbeing.

Taurus
April 21 to May 21
Tarot card for Taurus for this week: Five of Cups
Meaning: This might sound weird but you do need a ‘safe space’ to have a good old cry. One thing I do know is that although there’s never a perfect time to cry, we so often need it, just to release, let go, vent, exorcise all that pent-up emotion.
This week, make that safe space. Whether you’re alone or with your most trusted confidant, get things off your chest, dredge up what’s been hurting you inside, and let it out. The relief and release will be epic!

Gemini
May 22 to June 21
Tarot card for Gemini for this week: Three of Wands
Meaning: You want elbow room, wriggle space, freedom. Security (in your psyche) is the ability to adapt, make changes, respond to the latest influx. So, if you’re feeling hemmed in by anything this week then get out of it.
If you feel your eggs are in too few baskets, then get more! You are the ultimate multi-tasker and juggler. You need multiple options, revenue streams, roles, and pathways to feel safe-guarded from life’s impacts and bombs. Go make that variety work for you.

Cancer
June 22 to July 23
Tarot card for Cancer for this week: King of Coins
Meaning: Now is the time for you to prioritise your health, wealth, work and home. Now is the time for you to step up, take responsibility for what needs doing, self yourself first and no-one else, and make everything work for you.
The King of Coins brings the shrewdness, determination, and practicality to do this easily. You are on a roll, use that lucky streak to firm up what needs to be firmer! You crave security. Actively build more of it in your life.

Leo
July 24 to August 23
Tarot card for Leo for this week: The World
Meaning: This is a ‘big’ card and suggests your security is very much on your mind right now. Perhaps there are global issues that touch you and it’s important to find your feelings, process them, speak up, say what you feel, and maybe even get involved in something, in a group that is like-minded.
It’s also a symbol of endings, achievements, and needing a new goal to inspire you to the next level. Perhaps you’re ready for that promotion or next step?

Virgo
August 24 to September 23
Tarot card for Virgo for this week: The Magician
Meaning: Create something fascinating and fresh out of the ugliness or chaos you feel you’ve been subjected to this year! Bring forth an insight, feeling or piece of wisdom that you think is worth sharing and find a way to share it in a really creative way!
Beauty can come from defeat, cruelty, failure, loss. Turn the negative into something positive, a nugget of hope you can take forward. And it will be an inspiration to others, I promise. An example… and that is what you long to set. Be creative.

Libra
September 24 to October 23
Tarot card for Libra for this week: Six of Swords
Meaning: This week, you need to let go of things which are weighing your little ‘life ship’ down. If you had to lighten the load to make the passage to your dream destination happen, what would you throw overboard? This is your homework this week.
Your long-term security could be hampered by carrying baggage that isn’t yours to carry, or has lost its purpose or necessity. I know you can be a hoarder… but the Six of Swords asks you to adopt a ruthless mindset and ditch what’s not joyful or useful.

Scorpio
October 24 to November 22
Tarot card for Scorpio for this week: The Hermit
Meaning: The Hermit is always a signal to seek peaceful solitude and push away distractions or external interference so that you can focus on what lies beneath and within. You are looking for enlightenment, trying to process and make sense of the year’s events and impacts.
Let your emotions have space to catch up with reality. Let your mind do its thing of ruminating and reflecting on what has happened to you. Draw forth your narrative, your ideas, your ‘take’ on it. Research, ponder, validate, meditate, reflect.

Sagittarius
November 23 to December 21
Tarot card for Sagittarius for this week: Knight of Coins
Meaning: Security is very much a hot topic for you right now. You feel a little defensive on a few fronts – health, wealth, work and home. You want to make sure everything is up-to-date, doing what it should, fit for purpose, and safeguarded from outside influences.
So, check your tech, your contracts, your insurance, your admin, your work status and plans, your fitness and wellbeing, your financial affairs. Attend to minor tweaks and repairs, and feel 100% better this week.

Capricorn
December 22 to January 21
Tarot card for Capricorn for this week: Knight of Swords
Meaning: Sometimes you need to fight, to push back, to demand what’s not being granted, to find leverage to make what you need happen. And this is one of those times, Cap.
The Knight of Swords will grant you the necessary level of assertiveness (not aggression) to say your piece, be heard, have persuasive power, and reach a conclusion that gives you the material reward, security, assurance, or wealth you deserve. Don’t take ‘no’ for an answer. Push harder. You are fighting for something you deserve, after all.

Aquarius
January 22 to February 19
Tarot card for Aquarius for this week: Knight of Wands
Meaning: This week will present a variety of opportunities to secure your foundations, out of the blue and possibly from unexpected sources, and you should be on the front foot, saying ‘yes’ and having a go. Nothing to lose, after all.
The Knight of Wands is an explorer and adventurer, which is very much your nature. You like to experiment, try new approaches or tech, seek the progressive way of doing things. Apply that mindset to your health, wealth, work and home this week. Do new stuff.

Pisces
February 20 to March 20
Tarot card for Pisces for this week: Five of Wands
Meaning: Whatever strikes you as being difficult, troubled, stressful, or under pressure this week… that is where you should focus your efforts. The negative aura or feelings triggered by this area is actually working as a signal, trying to get your attention, calling out to say things need to change.
Pay attention, zoom in, notice the root cause issues, and work on fixing them. It will go a lot better than you think and lead to lasting solutions that make you feel much more grounded and secure. Don’t let the bad vibes carry on – sort them out.
