Think before you speak; heal through love

Martian energies that dominated last week have gone quiet. None of the cards associated with the fiery planet got pulled this time, indicating a week devoid of excessive action.

This week (October 4-October 10), Venus, the planet of love, beauty and harmony, has taken over the mantle. 

Venus-related cards were pulled seven times—about 19% of the total. 

However, it’s not all hunky-dory. The shadow side of the planet of love can bring out traits like vengeance, pride, and avarice.

Astrologically as well, Venus has turned retrograde in Scorpio for forty days beginning October 3.

This highlights the importance of healing old wounds and partnerships, and this week asks us to be cautious in our communication and understanding of interpersonal matters.

The Knight of Swords appearing thrice brings this piece of information to our urgent attention.

Moreover, number ‘6’ that is associated with Venus, is conspicuous by its absence.

Mid-point challenges are indicated this week.

Cards related to Taurus — the house of stability, which went missing last week — have reappeared albeit underlining caution with respect to financial security, overindulgence, and impatience.

Cards related to Mercury appearing four times (11%) add to the erraticity of developments.

Number ‘2’ appeared seven times (19%), highlighting the importance of balance and partnerships.

The Libra-Aries axis is quite visible this week, which also underscores the importance of maintaining a balance between the ego self and the ‘other’.

Air and earth elements dominate the cards pulled for this week, indicating that developments could either be in a premature stage or they may land quite abruptly as outcomes based on previous actions.

External factors are limited in number, but they present necessary turning points, healing, vitality, insights and fortitude wherever required.

[Unlike other columns on zodiac signs, I make an effort every week to bring out decan-specific readings for the twelve Sun signs. Each zodiac sign (30 degrees) is divided into three decans (10 degrees). This makes the reading more focused and accurate. It also provides better cues for the collective whole.

Which decan of the zodiac does your birthday fall in? Given below are the decan-specific tarot card readings for the respective Sun signs.]

Here we go…

Aries ♈

First decan (March 21-March 30)

What’s said and what’s understood could be painful. Get clarity before drawing conclusions. Resolve any misunderstandings. Conflicts are best resolved through dialogue.

Second decan (March 31-April 9)

VII of Pentacles 

You may have to wait longer than usual. It’s best to make use of this waiting period by looking at alternatives. This can save you some time and resources.

Third decan (April 10-April 19)

King of Swords 

You may be overanalysing this. You do have a good grip on this matter but be careful of not becoming too judgemental. View this with a bit of empathy.

Taurus ♉️ 

First decan (April 20-April 29)

Strength 

You’ll need to be courageous to implement this decision. Some issues are not overcome by force. Use your soft skills and it will cower under your command.

Second decan (April 30-May 9)

Knight of Swords

There’s no point chasing something that costs you your peace of mind. Allow clarity to emerge before you head straight into this. Get the focus back.

Third decan (May 10-May 20)

II of Swords

It’s a stalemate situation and you must decide even if it results in a painful outcome. Rise above this duality and break through the delusional energies.

Gemini ♊️ 

First decan (May 21-May 30)

IV of Swords

Pause for now. Take a break as it may get exhausting. Recharge your batteries and rejuvenate before you get back on the job.

Second decan (May 31-June 9)

The High Priestess 

Between what’s emerging and what’s hidden, an awareness brings you fresh insights into this matter. You don’t want to reveal your cards yet. Rely on your gut feeling.

Third decan (June 10-June 20)

The Emperor 

This is not just about what’s important. It’s also a matter of your honour and your experience is best suited to leading this. Begin afresh and kickstart a new journey with the backing of your abilities and wisdom.

Cancer ♋️ 

First decan (June 21-July 1)

Knight of Swords

You may have to rush into addressing this matter but it’s better to first get a clear picture and then decide. Your quest is valid. Your approach may need to change to make it viable.

Second decan (July 2-July 11)

IV of Pentacles 

You may be overprotective about this. What insecurity is bothering you? Let go and allow fresh energies to flow into your life. You already have good stability. So why worry?

Third decan (July 12-July 22)

IX of Pentacles

This is a good week for self-care, and what could be better than spending some quality time all by yourself. You’ve earned this! You deserve it.

Leo ♌️ 

First decan (July 23- August 2)

Queen of Cups

There’s nothing called overindulgence when it comes to self-care. Go by what your intuition tells you. Be compassionate as this could also be overwhelming.

Second decan (August 3-August 12)

IV of Wands

It’s kind of a milestone you’ve reached and would like to feel secure about. Growth has been achieved but you must be cautious so as not to become complacent. Keep walking!

Third decan (August 13-August 22)

II of Pentacles

It’s a bit too much for you to handle by yourself. Focus on what can be achieved and let go of what’s beyond you. Get what you lay your hands on. It’s just the beginning.

Virgo ♍️ 

First decan (August 23-September 1)

IX of Pentacles

This has come out well and you must reward yourself by taking the time out and indulging a bit. You deserve it. Time can slow down. There’s no hurry to get back to work.

Second decan (September 2-September 11)

Judgement 

Treat this as an awakening. What’s emerged needs to be addressed. There’s a key lesson that needs to be learnt. Imbibe the same and bring a course correction if necessary.

Third decan (September 12-September 22)

Temperance 

Your spirit knows what’s best for you. Heal yourself by connecting to your higher self. It’s necessary to bring balance back into your life.

Libra ♎️ 

First decan (September 23-October 2)

Justice

What goes around, comes around. The phase may be karmic as you reflect on a partnership. Keep your ego in check and reflect on the outcome before you decide.

Second decan (October 3-October 12)

The Hierophant 

The week emphasises learning and upskilling. Even though traditional, this could be an important avenue for your success. Listen to your inner voice.

Third decan (October 13-October 22)

V of Pentacles

You may be going through a tough phase. Seek help from your connections and try to look for meaning in this situation. Reflect on how you landed here. But don’t forget, if winter comes, can spring be far behind?

Scorpio ♏️ 

First decan (October 23-November 1)

VII of Pentacles

This is going to take a while. You may not want to put all your eggs in one basket. Look for an alternative. Conserve your energies for projects that are more likely to deliver a fruitful outcome.

Second decan (November 2-November 11)

VII of Cups

You may be getting deluded into chasing too many goals. Try to get your focus back on the righteous path. View such thoughts like a witness, without indulging in them.

Third decan (November 12-November 21)

Knight of Pentacles 

It’s a pause for now. Revisit the plan, check all the facts and see how you must proceed because everything must be clear before you sign on the dotted line.

Sagittarius ♐️ 

First decan (November 22-December 1)

Wheel of Fortune 

A turning point could show up, potentially with a good opportunity. If you’ve been waiting for this, don’t let it go. It could also come as a blessing in terms of wisdom and knowledge you may need in this stage of life.

Second decan (December 2-December 11)

Ace of Swords

It’s a good idea and, perhaps, a good beginning. You must nurture it if you wish to take this forward. By itself, it may not sustain. Speak to someone who can help you figure it out.

Third decan (December 12-December 21)

II of Cups

It’s bonding well. You reciprocate a proposal that seems just right. Reflect on how you want to take this forward. On your own, you are firmly stable but this could add a layer of balance to your life.

Capricorn ♑️ 

First decan (December 22-December 31) 

III of Wands

Growth energies surround you. You have good backing as well. Move ahead with your plans as you are driven by action this week. Tap into the awareness that’s also available to you quite serendipitously.

Second decan (January 1-January 10)

V of Swords

Watch what you say and how you communicate this week. It could create misunderstandings or rifts. You may want to hold on to your thoughts for the sake of maintaining relationships.

Third decan (January 11-January 19)

II of Swords

You may face indecision due to delusional energies. Get clarity on this before you decide. The stalemate reveals deep subconscious elements which are forcing you into delays. Address these and let go.

Aquarius ♒️ 

First decan (January 20-January 29)

Queen of Swords 

You have clarity and awareness about this issue. As you proceed with this, bear in mind that not everything gets accomplished by force. Being empathetic can help.

Second decan (January 30-February 8)

III of Cups

This is a time to raise a toast and celebrate your wins. What you have accomplished is for you to accept and share with others. Your sentiments could be emphasised.

Third decan (February 9-February 18)

The Sun

You are filled with vitality, and success in an endeavour is likely. This bolsters your confidence and stability all the same. Be cautious not to let your ego rule your mind. Be humble.

Pisces ♓️ 

First decan (February 19-February 28/29)

Knight of Swords

What you may be rushing into could require some caution. Get clarity on this before you decide. Awareness can help you keep a tight vigil on where your mind is leading you.

Second decan (March 1-March 10)

VIII of Wands

Matters could develop at a quick pace. You must act with precision and speed. Get your communication up and running and ensure there are no glitches midway. Make use of opportunities.

Third decan (March 11-March 20)

V of Pentacles

This could be a tedious task. You are not confident in communicating and you may not have the skills to execute it by yourself. Don’t allow insecurities to overwhelm you. Get assistance when required.
