TAROT foretell

Lights twinkle in an October that is especially devoted to festivity, food and family. Diwali sheen magically rejuvenates homes, people and relationships as though in resonance with the freshness of Nature; the unfolding of many-hued flowers in Australia’s magnificent Spring serenade. May the festival of lights brighten and bring peace.

ARIES March 21 - April 19

TAURUS April 20 - May 20

Your faith in yourself is unshakeable, Aries, as it ought to be with Mars in your driver’s seat! The High Priestess asks you to look for that which might not be clearly visible - a secret you must unfold. Might that be your lyrical side? The Page of Cups urges you towards poetry, music and all things artistic as you are invited to balance intelligence with empathy. A visit to an art museum with young members of your family proves exciting!

Sunshine, you’re a blessing to be around this month! Lifting spirits, spreading cheer, lending a helping hand and a listening ear - you place others at the centre of your life’s sphere and you get back so much more. Love and harmony light up your family life! It’s a vibrant time and even though the Knight of Discs niggles at your purse strings a wee bit, you take that in your stride for you know together-times are fleeting and most precious.

LEO

July 21 - Aug 22

The Star with the Ace of Wands places you where the action is! Your imagination and inventive power propel you to make a foray into fresh avenues of business activity. Luck from above graces your intelligence and vivacious optimism, leading you to success. Like a benevolent ruler, you are mindful of those around you and your concern for others makes you well-loved. You’re a magnet for miracles, Leo! As you take a bow, keep the stardust on those regal shoulders!

Sagittarius

Nov 22 - Dec 21

Oh, Sagittarius, you’ve been dreaming a solitary dream of finding your own way. You’re innocent of worldly ways just like The Fool is, but is it deliberate? You feel you need this time to go within and explore; to discover where you view yourself a few years from now and then work out ways to get there. Rebuilding is always good with a dash of Sagittarian optimism. The Ace of Swords beckons you to go in the direction of your dreams.

VIRGO Aug 23 - Sep 22

The Fates smile on you this month, Virgo, as the Nine of Cups grants you a wish fulfillment. Whether your wish is related to family, home, career or recovery from illness - a long-held goal will be brought to full fruition. Hold your success in your heart, though, for all may not be as a first glance may reveal. A toss up may reveal fair-weather friends that you need to tuck away. Rely on your instinct and savour time with soulmates.

CAPRICORN

Dec 22 - Jan 19

Going somewhere, Capricorn? Your bags are packed and you’re on the ready says The Chariot! You’re enchanted by a mind-body-yoga kind of tour to a national park or remote spot that is appealing to you at several levels. Perhaps you feel a calling to conduct a session where the spirit is refreshed. The Page of Wands is definitely outdoors and sporty and loves to learn. Happy times with young people around a campfire are definitely your thing in October. Enjoy!

GEMINI

May 21 - June 20

Mercurial wings lift you to great heights in the areas of communication, especially if writing and public speaking are your forté, Gemini. You may be invited to address a gathering to inspire young minds and you’ll be in your element. The Tower cautions you to do a bit of ground work as you may need a couple of aces up your sleeve. Certainly, with your charm and a bit of humour thrown in, you’ll own the mic and the day!

LIBRA

Sep 23 - Oct 22

Noble Libra, you balance your work and ideals for the greater good. You will be successful in realising your goals if you act after deliberation and weighing of the pros and cons. This may keep a few people around you guessing but so be it! The Magician card ensures you will not be swayed by lower energies. The Three of Cups brings you love and understanding. When you see love shining in your partner’s eyes, you’ll feel you’ve come home.

AQUARIUS

Jan 20 - Feb 18

You’ve been in a charmed space of late, Aquarius, which may have spoilt you for choice, says The Lovers card. Perhaps you need to connect with the real world. Art and aesthetics play a strong role in your life and you tend to gravitate towards the futuristic. The Two of Cups leads you on the persevering path so you come into contact with people who value your labour of love, be it prose, poetry or painting. Go for it, Aquarius!

CANCER June 21 - July 20

Emotions rule you and yet, in the mire of the daily toil, you crabs are the least likely to spend time with yourselves. With the Judgement card encouraging you to admit your own feelings to yourself, this is a priority now. Cancer, you must be gentle with yourself as you feel your thoughts. The Queen of Cups encourages you to open up to the possibilities there are for relationships and at work - for they hold a lot of promise!

SCORPIO

Oct 23 - Nov 21

The card of The World assures you of success! It lies just ahead. All the prework towards a presentation and the burnt oil of maddening midnights are about to bring you your heart’s desire. If you feel you’re losing steam, take power naps, recoup and get back in there! The Two of Swords will neither let you give up nor give in to suggestions that are not at par with your ideas. Stay as you are, Scorpio - top notch you!

Pisces

Feb 19 - March 20

You may welcome The Alchemist into your life as you work on small changes in your lifestyle - be it your diet or health routine or work hours. You will discover a new energy within yourself once you implement these changes. And it’s catching! Those around you will feel this, too. The Four of Cups brings you an enhanced experience of satisfaction at both the home and workplace. There will be memorable fun times that will exhilarate your gentle Piscean spirit!
