Each week we consult the 78 Tarot Cards and draw a card for each of the 12 zodiac signs. So, what do the Tarot cards have to tell you?



SUNDAY 1ST - SATURDAY 7TH OCTOBER 2023

		10 of Swords - There will be a complete ending in a particular area of your life. This might be an attitude of mind, a relationship or a physical situation. There is usually a sense of inevitability about this ending and, although worry, sadness or a sense of betrayal may accompany it, you will soon realise that, having hit rock bottom, the only way to go now is up. The worst has already passed. Learn from this experience and approach the future with hope and optimism.
		Ace of Pentacles - You are being urged to get a new business venture off the ground or to begin any scheme or idea that means a lot to you. This might be moving to a new house or improving your current home, or something else that will boost your sense of self-esteem. Money is usually on the horizon when this card appears, and it may arrive in the form of a gift, a windfall, a win or a pay rise. A traditional meaning is the gift of a ring – is an engagement or wedding in the offing?
		Strength - A situation will arise with one who will exert a great deal of power or influence over you. You will be steadfast in your goals or intention and, if challenged, will take up the gauntlet and win. Nothing will defeat you. Put aside the notion that your prayers can only be answered by striving or personal effort, and if you pray, pray with conviction; don't be fearful. You will not be ready to commit or become totally involved in a new relationship. This could be because of an emotional attachment to the past.
		The Devil - You will be fed up with the lack of results for your efforts and trying to keep your chin up through setbacks and reversals, and you will decide to withdraw your energy or give up. Don't forge ahead blindly. Slow down, plan carefully, and proceed with caution. Get a second opinion if necessary. You will still carry a flame for the one you love, and you hope to recover what was lost and begin again.
		King of Cups - Problems in the home or with your family will begin to ease off, but your desire for love and romance will increase. You will be in a romantic or flirtatious mood and life will offer several opportunities for romance, but those who try to exercise a claim will have to compete with stiff competition: your work and your ideal lover. However, don't let your desire colour what really is. Refuse to accept less than is correct in people or settle for what is so-so. A sow's ear dressed up to look like a silk purse is still a sow's ear. Put your ideas to the test.
		Ace of Swords - You will make the decision to act on, or move into, a less problematic environment or situation and to let a business problem ride rather than forcing the issue. Have faith in yourself, and know that your work is good and stands on its own. Persevere, be determined, and let nothing divert you from having what you want. You will get an unexpected message, call, or response from someone who has a crush on you or loves you. This could also indicate a new love that will take you by storm.
		Death - Change is symbolised by this card, which tells you that the old order will give way to the new. It’s the end of an era. You’re being given the opportunity to make a fresh start, to embark on a new phase in your life and to put the past behind you. For instance, it may be the end of a relationship, a job or a way of life and, although this will be painful at the time, you will eventually realise it was a blessing in disguise. This card is also favourable if you are trying to transform your life, perhaps by going out on a limb in some way. Although the changes may be hard to deal with at first, you can turn them into something positive.
		Knight of Wands - You are not afraid of the unknown. Travel is indicated, especially if it takes you far afield – you may move house or even emigrate. Alternatively, there may be visitors from another country. This card may also represent a person who is important to you now - it’s someone who is generous, popular, sociable and outgoing. They can be unpredictable at times and are full of ideas that don’t always come to anything. Nevertheless, they are good fun to be around.
		The Fool - You will have the conviction that no matter what life hands you, it's going to be all right. You will also embark on a new program or creative endeavour involving papers, methods, or studies that will be very rewarding or gratifying. Release wants, cares, or worries and let go. Don't hang on to an idea or a support system out of fear of failure or loss. You will have mixed emotions regarding another who will want more than you're ready to give or commit to. Part of you will want to enter the relationship with complete abandon, while another part will hold it at bay.
		9 of Pentacles - Material security and physical comfort are on the horizon, and you will experience a deep sense of well-being and contentment. This is a particularly favourable card if you are currently in the throes of moving house or have been undergoing domestic upheavals, because it’s telling you that much happier times are just around the corner. Your ability to bring order into chaos will make you prosperous. Many appreciate your good advice.
		The High Priestess - A new product or future business endeavour may come into being, or you could seek a new business partner. You will be putting love, or the one you love, out of your thoughts in order to avoid emotional entanglements or the pangs of desire. Visualise the desired result as an accomplished fact and act as if you are already what you want to be, and it will happen.
		The Empress - You are going to make a very important or significant connection with someone, and though it's only the initial stage of an action or union, the gears will be set in motion. You will long for love and affection and want very much to express the things in your heart but cannot, and you will not be content to be just a surface lover. Heed your feelings or instincts and not your intellect, and learn to trust your feelings more.
