Your Weekly Tarot Reading for October 13–October 19, 2024: Prioritize What Matters

October’s full moon rises in the sign of Aries this week on Thursday the 17th conjuring an energy to heighten our sensitivities and intensify our emotions. Aries is symbolized by the ram who faces conflict, challenge, and adventure with enthusiasm, HEAD ON! This vibe is quite a match for harmonious Libra who is always seeking out the other perspective and questioning if every little thing needs to be amplified into a major moment. Aries tends to be impulsive, spontaneous, and assertive so if any sign can instigate the balance of Libra, it’s the passionate energy of this full moon!  

Known as the Hunter’s Moon, this full moon typically historically appeared after the leaves have begun to fall and the fields are nearly barren from the harvest, illuminating the clearings for the hunters to more easily see their prey. Acknowledging this clarity of sight and the astrological vibe if the moment, notice what you’re currently able to see and feel this week. Inspired by the courage of Aries, what fears can be released in order to step forward on your journey towards your highest good? This is a wonderful moment to remove any self imposed limitations and blockages on your path. Life is an adventure so let’s treat it that way! Create space for the things in life that enhance your confidence and let go of the rest. 

This week’s intuitively pulled cards highlight what’s truly important in life with the reminder to let go of regrets, learn from our mistakes, and create more time for the people we love. Our professional lives and passions can feel all consuming verging on overwhelming at times, but personal connections and our closest relationships deserve our attention as well. This week could be a wonderful moment to shift around priorities and indulge in a little more time away from anything stressful.

Read on for your Tarotscopes for cosmic guidance and advice into your week ahead. Wishing you full moon blessings!

Taurus: Eight of Cups

Try something else, Taurus. We all know when something isn’t working, and it doesn’t really matter how loyal you are to the cause when it just won’t budge. This week reminds you that it is more than ok to walk away and let something go in favor of a new opportunity that holds an abundance of potential. 

Gemini: Ace of Cups Reversed

Protect your heart, Gemini. Not everyone is worth your time, and just because they feel entitled to it, it doesn’t mean you need to comply! This week will heighten your sensitivity and remind you just how precious your energy is so put yourself first (for once!) and by tightening up your boundaries.

Cancer: Nine of Pentacles

Enjoy yourself, Cancer. There’s truly no point in working as hard as you do if you never take time off to delight in all of the beautiful blessings you have created for yourself. Make it a point to do something sweet and frivolous this week simply for the pleasure of the experience!

Leo: Five of Cups

Let go of regrets, Leo. In hindsight, we often see how we could do something differently or better, but there’s truly no point in wasting time ruminating on mistakes. It’s time to forgive yourself and understand that you did the best you could at the time. Learn from the past and apply those lessons as new opportunities come up.

Virgo: Four of Wands

This calls for a celebration, Virgo. When you reach a milestone, it’s important to acknowledge the hard work it took to get here before simply moving on to the next goal. Life doesn’t have to be an endless list of checked boxes so spend some time this week enjoying a recent achievement. You deserve a treat! 

Libra: Six of Cups Reversed

It’s time to move on, Libra. Memories soften with time, and something from your past could be far better in your mind than it was in actuality. Who knows?! Whether it was or wasn’t isn’t really the issue here because this is about letting go of the past and accepting what’s ahead of you instead.

MORE TAROT: Need an answer about something in your career path?

Scorpio: Ten of Pentacles

Adjust your values, Scorpio. It’s rather difficult to give every aspect of your life an equal amount of attention and energy, but when you know what you wish to grow and work on, you can create more time and space for your focus. Whether it’s work or pleasure or something else, make it your priority moving forward.

Sagittarius: Judgment

Take accountability, Sagittarius. This week could see you in the middle of more conflict than usual, but before turning up the heat and blaming everyone else involved, take some time to step back and indulge in another perspective. Are you able to see how you contributed to this getting here? If you’ve made a mistake, just own it.

Capricorn: The World Reversed

What are you waiting for, Capricorn? You’re almost there, but not quite yet, and this week reminds you of all of the silly little things that still remain on your to do list. Instead of getting frustrated, just get it done already! There’s no need to continue procrastinating any longer.

Get caught up in the moment, Aquarius. If you are feeling excited about something, why should you stop yourself from charging forward full steam ahead??! Sometimes you just need to follow an impulse and see where it takes you before you talk yourself out of it and lose the thrill of excitement.

Pisces: Knight of Pentacles

Enjoy the ride, Pisces. It’s understandable to get caught up in the thrill of arriving at your destination, but to get to where you want to go is going to take some time so you might as well enjoy the sights along the way!
