Your Weekly Tarot Reading for November 12–18, 2023: Uncovering Your Shadow.
We are in the thick of Scorpio season, a time of mystery, transformation, and introspection that creates a lovely opportunity to go beyond what’s lingering on the surface and deeply explore your inner landscape. What have you uncovered from within your shadow? Whatever it may be, put this valuable information to use when the moon is new in Scorpio on the thirteenth, as it is prime time to set intentions and embark upon new beginnings. This lunation brings a tidal wave of feelings, so be extra kind and compassionate towards yourself as you wade through the depths of the emotional waters.
This week’s intuitively pulled Tarot cards remind us to slow down, remain rational, and use common sense despite the swirling ferocity of the current energetic climate. Intensity may be uncomfortable to sit with, but observing how you feel provides helpful clarity about what’s coming up for you. Use this moment wisely to determine if anything else must change, as it could be wildly beneficial before you ignite your future endeavors. Plus, it’s always good to get to know yourself better and where you’re at in this moment.
Read on for your Tarotscopes to provide cosmic insight and guided support into your week ahead!
Aries: Eight of Wands Reversed
Slow down, Aries. It’s time to accept that it is unrealistic to think you can be productive 24/7. Use this week to adjust your expectations for yourself and your workload because if you don’t make time for breaks and rest, you will head straight into epic burnout.

Taurus: Five of Pentacles
Be mindful of your spending, Taurus. A considerable purchase is on your mind right now, but think carefully before proceeding with an investment such as this one. It’s not the best time to make impulsive decisions with your money, so save it for when a better opportunity comes along.
Gemini: The Chariot
Keep your eyes on the prize, Gemini. Success doesn’t always come easily, but that doesn’t mean everything doesn’t come together just as it should. Don’t lose hope! Muster up all of your determination and just keep going towards your destination. Your dreams are coming true, but you need to have some patience.
Cancer: The Hermit Reversed
Come out of your shell, Cancer. Self-reflection can be all-encompassing, and it feels like you have been indulging in quite a bit of alone time lately. It’s a wonderful time to rebalance and get out of your own head! Reconnect with friends and plan a fun social outing to look forward to.

Leo: Five of Wands Reversed
Reserve your energy, Leo. This week finds you embroiled in controversy as everyone is looking to you for your perspective on hot topics. Will you take the bait? Consider this moment carefully because it’s probably not worth it to give so much attention to a losing battle if no one will be satisfied.
Virgo: King of Swords
Remain rational, Virgo. Does it feel like everyone around you has become illogical? The best approach to take this week is one of neutrality. Just because others are stressed and freaking out, it doesn’t mean you have to join in on the fracas. Stick to the facts and keep your emotions out of it.
Libra: Queen of Pentacles
Use common sense, Libra. This week calls for your practical decision-making skills to come into play. It might not be glamorous or thrilling, but thinking rationally now will save you a world of headaches and irritating consequences that would come with the ramifications of impulsive mistakes later.

Scorpio: Six of Swords
Moving on, Scorpio. It’s time to face the facts of your current situation: this is not changing. As soon as you accept this reality, it will be easier to release the hopes you once held. Letting this go may not be easy, but it’s for the best.
Sagittarius: Four of Wands Reversed
Embrace the unknown, Sagittarius. You are moving through a transition period, and it’s hard to know what awaits you on the other side of these changes. Stay in the present moment as everything unfolds by focusing on the things you can control to create a sense of stability for yourself.
Capricorn: Three of Pentacles Reversed
What’s missing, Capricorn? You continue to hit a roadblock as you try to make progress because you lack a crucial skill to maneuver through this. Take some time this week to figure out what knowledge you’re lacking so you can learn more, or bring in someone else who is already proficient.

Pisces: Queen of Cups Reversed
Mind your business, Pisces. Everyone around you might be struggling around you, causing you to feel pulled to come in as a rescuer, but let’s press pause before you dive into someone else’s chaos. If this doesn’t really involve you, it’s best to just stay out of it and focus on your own drama.
