Your Weekly Tarotscopes: Monday 11th – Sunday 17th November 2024

Major Astrological event: Saturn Retrograde ends on Friday 15th November

As Saturn retrograde ends on Friday, a powerful shift will take place across the zodiac. After months of retrograde motion, Saturn’s direct motion brings with it a sense of forward momentum, particularly in areas where we’ve felt limited, restricted, or stagnant. It’s as though a door is unlocking, allowing us to take the lessons we’ve learned and apply them more confidently in the months ahead.

For many signs, this event brings clarity and a chance to solidify plans, especially around work, structure, and long-term goals. Areas where you’ve been working hard but not seeing results will begin to show signs of progress, and you’ll feel more empowered to move forward without that lingering sense of restriction.

The Taurus Full Moon: Friday 15th November

The Taurus Full Moon, or Beaver Moon, on Friday 15th November, is the last supermoon of 2024, bringing powerful energies of reflection and release. This full moon highlights our relationship with stability, security, and material values. It’s a time to assess what’s working in your life and what needs to be let go of for growth, especially when it comes to finances, home life, and personal relationships.

For all signs, this full moon encourages letting go of past patterns that no longer serve us, especially around financial and emotional security. It’s a moment to reflect on what you’ve built this year, take stock, and prepare for new beginnings. Trust your instincts as you release what’s weighing you down and make space for a balanced future.


Aries: 21st March – 19th April

This week kicks off with a burst of energy as the Moon enters Aries, bringing that signature boldness and spark. The Ten of Wands in your reading, however, suggests that while you’re fired up, you may also be carrying a lot on your plate. Responsibilities could feel heavier than usual, but remember that your strength lies in tackling them head-on.

On Tuesday, lean into this energy to start what you need to quickly and directly – prioritise projects that are close to your heart and those that might clear some of the weight off your shoulders. By Wednesday, there’s an opportunity to shake things up with something new. An exciting experience or learning opportunity could come your way, so keep an open mind and say yes to invitations or ideas that broaden your horizons.

It’s a week to balance your natural drive with a kind approach to yourself. Don’t hesitate to set some of those Wands down if the load feels too much, and focus on the joy of new beginnings, which is right up your alley.


Taurus: 20th April – 20th May

This week, Taurus, the Five of Cups brings with it an opportunity to reflect on what’s been lost, but also on what’s still standing strong around you. It’s natural to focus on what’s missing or disappointing, especially as emotions run deep under the influence of the Taurus Full Moon, but don’t let the weight of the past blind you to the good things still present. Sometimes, what seems like a setback is just a redirection. Allow yourself to mourn what didn’t work out, but then shift your focus to what’s left; there’s still plenty of hope to build from.

With the Moon in your sign, you’re naturally more in tune with your own feelings, which can help you regain your stability. Use this energy to reconstruct any areas of life where you feel things have slipped or faded. A slow, steady approach is key now – there’s no rush. Whether in romance or work, take time to nurture what’s important, and things will begin to fall back into place. Don’t be afraid to take a step back if you need to; slowing down will give you the clarity to make better decisions.

Collaboration also holds power this week. Working with someone you trust, whether personally or professionally, can help you rebuild in areas where you’ve been feeling uncertain. Don’t hesitate to lean on others for support, as they can offer a fresh perspective or strength you might not have realised you were missing. As you push through any feelings of doubt, take comfort in the knowledge that not everything is as it seems; your emotional resilience will see you through this moment.


Gemini: 21st May – 20th June

This week, Gemini, you’re navigating a crossroads. The Two of Swords appears in your reading, suggesting a moment of decision – one that might feel uncertain or even a bit challenging. You might be balancing two opposing paths or choices, so take a moment to sit with each option carefully rather than rushing forward.

By Wednesday, the Moon’s position with Jupiter in your sign brings a breath of fresh air, inviting you to try something new that sparks your curiosity. If you’re feeling stuck on a decision, this energy can be a great way to take your mind off it and explore new perspectives or ideas. When Saturday arrives and the Moon enters Gemini, you’ll feel right in your element. Dive into a variety of projects and let your mind wander; you might find that solutions naturally start to reveal themselves in the midst of your multitasking.

As the week wraps up, the Moon and Jupiter align in Gemini on Sunday, bringing a wave of optimism. This is the time to broaden your vision and take a step back. If you’ve been holding off on a choice, let your inner confidence guide you to what feels right. Embrace the change on the horizon, knowing that whatever path you choose, your adaptability will carry you forward.


Cancer: 21st June – 22nd July

This week, Cancer, the Ten of Swords appears to remind you that challenges in one area don’t have to hold you back in another. If you’re feeling disheartened romantically, this card speaks to the need for acceptance and a fresh perspective, which can ultimately bring you peace. There may be misunderstandings or past issues weighing down on you, making it tempting to retreat, but the Ten of Swords nudges you to acknowledge what’s no longer serving you emotionally. By letting go of old disappointments, you create space for new growth – whether with someone special or by focusing on the self-love you deserve.

In your career, however, there’s a spark of promise that makes this week feel refreshingly different. Where romance may feel heavy, your professional path has a lightness and potential for achievement. Your strengths shine through in unexpected ways, and projects or opportunities seem to come with an air of promise and the chance to excel. This week, lean into your resourceful side by letting any hard-learned lessons from love become assets at work. Your sensitivity and insight into relationships give you an edge in reading situations and connecting with others in the workplace; skills that may just propel you forward.

Consider this your cue to turn past disappointments into fuel for professional success, Cancer. By trusting that your emotional wisdom is a strength, not a burden, you may find a renewed sense of purpose and pride in both life and love.


Leo: 23rd July – 22nd August

Leo, this week brings an invitation to embrace the unknown with The Fool card leading the way. Although The Fool usually represents new beginnings and fresh energy, its presence here also highlights some lingering fears or hesitations that may be holding you back. You might feel a mix of excitement and apprehension when it comes to stepping into something unfamiliar. This week, challenge yourself to loosen your grip on what’s comfortable – sometimes the unknown is exactly where the magic lies.

You may have opportunities to meet new people or try something out of the ordinary, and while the unknown can be daunting, The Fool encourages you to take those leaps. Trust that you have the strength and charm to handle whatever comes your way, even if it feels uncertain. Instead of overthinking the “what ifs,” lean into the possibility that each new experience could open a door to something wonderful.

Remember, Leo, even if it feels intimidating, moving beyond familiar boundaries can be empowering. Let the spirit of The Fool remind you that sometimes it’s the most unexpected paths that lead to the greatest rewards. This week, step forward with an open heart; you’re capable of so much more than you know!


Virgo: 23rd August – 22nd September

Virgo, the Queen of Wands has arrived, bringing an intoxicating mix of fire and finesse to your earthy intellect. This week, her energy fuses with your inner truth-seeker, igniting a passion to explore beyond the everyday and dive into the unknown; think of yourself as part mystic, part detective, both grounded and enchanted by the mysteries of the world. The Queen of Wands sees through pretence and illusion, and with her by your side, your mind sharpens, becoming almost clairvoyant in its ability to see through surface answers and seek out hidden truths.

You might find yourself craving experiences that stretch your understanding and deepen your insights. Whether it’s the hidden philosophies of a new belief system, the allure of a complex novel, or even an eccentric documentary that expands your worldview, the Queen urges you to follow these sparks with wild abandon. Expect breakthroughs in understanding that may feel almost magical – a new way of seeing things, a sudden intuitive nudge, or even a flash of insight that leads to a totally innovative solution.

If there’s a touch of rebellion in your heart, let it show! This card gives you permission to step outside the lines you so carefully draw and discover a more adventurous side of your intellect. Be bold! Channel the Queen’s charisma and allow yourself to be a little wilder, a little crazier, and much more willing to embrace the thrilling unknown.


Libra: 23rd September – 22nd October

Libra, the Five of Swords appears this week, hinting at an important message about finding balance between pleasure and purpose, especially in your career. While you might be striving for peace and satisfaction, the Five of Swords suggests there may be some underlying tension or a clash of egos in your work environment. Perhaps you’re dealing with competing priorities or others who seem set on proving themselves, even at the expense of teamwork.

This card doesn’t mean you need to take up the fight. Instead, it’s a reminder that you can achieve your goals without getting tangled in drama or unnecessary conflict. The key is to stay focused on what truly brings you joy and fulfilment in your work, rather than being side tracked by others’ agendas. Seek pleasure in your own accomplishments and approach tasks with integrity; sometimes, the greatest victory is simply walking away from battles that don’t serve your well-being.

Remember, true peace doesn’t come from “winning” in every scenario; it’s found in honouring your own values and finding joy in your path, regardless of others’ actions. This week, keep your focus on creating a career environment where you can thrive on your own terms. You’ll feel much more empowered by staying true to yourself than by engaging in unnecessary conflicts.


Scorpio: 23rd October – 21st November

This week, the Wheel of Fortune turns in your favour, Scorpio, bringing a surge of possibility around your deepest wishes. It’s a powerful card for change, and it suggests that the very thing you’ve been yearning for could come within reach, like a cosmic nudge pushing you closer to the life you envision. This might be a week where the universe aligns just so, revealing chances to make significant strides toward a goal or wish. Pay attention to what opportunities arise, as they’re likely tied to something you’ve quietly hoped for.

However, as these changes gather momentum, they may bring an unexpected restlessness. The excitement of seeing your desires start to manifest could leave you both thrilled and slightly on edge by the weekend, especially on Saturday as the Sun in Scorpio opposes Uranus. This transit stirs up intense feelings, potentially overwhelming you if things move faster than anticipated. There’s an urge to act, to make things happen right now, which could lead to frustration if you feel held back.

Instead of letting restlessness get the best of you, use it as motivation to examine what truly excites you about your dreams and ambitions. Take a moment to ground yourself, making sure that what’s unfolding aligns with what you genuinely desire. This will help you channel any anxious energy into positive action and keep you from becoming overstretched. Embrace the adventure of it all, Scorpio – your wishes are closer than ever.


Sagittarius: 22nd November – 21st December

Sagittarius, the Six of Wands in your reading this week points to a journey where victory may feel close, but doubts or uncertainties could be clouding your confidence. While this card often symbolises triumph and public recognition, paired with your current feelings of dissatisfaction, it suggests that even successes might not be feeling as fulfilling as they should. Perhaps you’re not seeing the impact you hoped for, or you’re feeling uncertain about the direction you’re heading, especially in areas where you’d typically expect excitement.

On Tuesday, Mercury and Saturn may leave your mind feeling stuck or restricted. This could amplify any frustrations you’re feeling about recognition or lack of progress. Rather than pushing through mental blocks or trying to force solutions, take a step back and give your mind the space it needs to rest and recharge. Sometimes, answers appear more clearly when you’re not actively searching for them.

Despite these challenges, the Six of Wands encourages you to remember past victories and recognize your accomplishments. You’ve already come so far! If feelings of unhappiness are surfacing, take them as a sign to check in with your goals. Are you still moving in a direction that resonates with you? Reflect on what genuinely brings you satisfaction, and trust that these answers will guide you toward the next steps.


Capricorn: 22nd December – 19th January

Capricorn, the Six of Swords brings a sense of transition this week, guiding you towards a new chapter. However, this transition isn’t without its reminders from the past, and you may find that certain events or challenges, especially those related to your career, resurface briefly. These echoes of past struggles could bring up negative feelings, but in truth they are gentle nudges to remind you of just how far you’ve come.

As Venus enters your sign this week, your approach to love and relationships becomes more grounded and serious, and you may find yourself reflecting on how your personal growth mirrors the journey you’ve taken in other areas of your life. Your ability to be practical in romance may even help you gain perspective on these lingering past issues. Your ability to take on responsibility, especially with others, means that you’re not just observing your progress – you’re now actively embracing it.

The key this week, Capricorn, is to avoid getting caught up in the negative aspects of these past reminders. Instead, use them as an opportunity to reflect on the lessons learned. With Venus also highlighting your ability to partner up successfully, you can use this energy to work with others in a way that helps push you further towards your next goal. This could mean collaborating more closely with colleagues or even seeking out new support systems in your professional life.

Remember, the impasse you feel is not the end of the road, but a reminder that you are moving in the right direction, slowly but surely. Embrace the journey, knowing that your past struggles have only made you more resilient. Keep moving forward with the confidence that you have all the tools you need to navigate this next phase of your career.


Aquarius: 20th January – 18th February

This week, Aquarius, the Four of Wands shines a spotlight on your home and family life, encouraging you to focus on creating a harmonious and peaceful atmosphere where connections can grow and deepen. Whether it’s hosting a small gathering, rearranging your space, or simply sharing quiet moments together, these interactions will bring much-needed stability and joy. Trust your instincts when it comes to family dynamics – sometimes, the smallest changes in the environment can lead to big shifts in mood and connection.

However, if there’s a conversation you’ve been avoiding or something that’s been weighing on your mind, stepping outside of your usual environment could help ease the tension. A neutral space, like a café or a walk in the park, might provide the perfect setting for discussions to flow more freely. It’s all about shifting the energy and breaking away from the familiar patterns to make communication feel more open and less charged.

Remember, Aquarius, that a little celebration, even if it’s just a simple meal or a shared activity, can go a long way in strengthening bonds with those you love. You’ve got the power to turn any challenge into an opportunity for growth, so lean into the positive energy of this week and trust that the vibe at home can set the tone for everything else.


Pisces: 19th February – 20th March

Pisces, this week’s Seven of Swords suggests a need for caution as you navigate situations that may feel frustrating or even deceptive. Perhaps you’re picking up on mixed messages or feeling like certain people aren’t being entirely straightforward with you. This card often speaks to strategies and careful planning, so keep an eye on any situations that could require a subtle approach, especially where you feel vexed or uncertain. On Tuesday, Mercury and Saturn may bring an added layer of mental frustration, making it hard to see a clear path forward. Rather than pushing against this feeling, give yourself permission to shift focus temporarily; it may free up space for fresh ideas to come in naturally.

On a positive note, the Seven of Swords also reminds you to be savvy and perceptive. Trust in your instincts, Pisces; they’re your best ally this week. And if romance is on your mind, the energy suggests that sometimes stepping back to observe can reveal more than pressing forward. You might discover something charming or endearing in someone’s hidden side, especially if you’re patient. Whether single or attached, there’s potential for small, meaningful gestures or quiet moments that strengthen connections. So, while some parts of the week might feel taxing, remember that love has a way of finding us even in the midst of life’s little complications. Keep your heart open, and you may be pleasantly surprised.

End of Saturn Retrograde in Pisces:

For Pisces, the end of Saturn’s retrograde motion in your sign on Friday is particularly significant. After months of retrograde energy, you’re likely to feel a sense of release and clarity. This is your moment to stop doubting yourself and start seeing the hard work you’ve put into your personal growth begin to pay off.

You may feel less restricted in expressing yourself, and there’s potential for you to take more practical steps toward your long-term ambitions. Saturn’s direct motion here encourages you to embrace the responsibilities that come with your dreams and work on building solid foundations for the future. The uncertainty you’ve felt over the past few months can now begin to clear, making way for a more stable and structured path ahead. Use this time to refocus your efforts, knowing that the universe is shifting in your favour – it’s time to move forward with greater confidence and clarity!
