What we need to know as a new cycle begins 

 

Just like a calendar year that begins on January 1, a new astrological year kicks in around March 21, when the Sun transitions into the first zodiac sign, the Mars-ruled Aries, during the spring equinox. 

With new aspirations in our hearts, as we take measured steps into the new zodiac year, let’s look at what Tarot is bringing to our attention for this Week Ahead (March 24-March 30).

Here we go…

 

Aries:

First decan (March 21-March 30)

VII of Pentacles 

For everything, there’s a season. You will taste the sweet fruit of success. But for now you need to cultivate patience. Certain boundaries need to be respected.

Second decan (March 31-April 9)

Ace of Cups

You are being blessed in abundance. You begin the year with a great acknowledgement for the love in your life. Give in accordance with what you receive.

Third decan (April 10-April 19)

Queen of Cups

The message for you is to nurture your life, your health, your career and your relationships particularly those who have cared for you or are seeking your attention and obligation for care.

 

Taurus

First decan (April 20-April 29)

VII of Cups

Planning for the future is a good thing, but avoid getting lost in fantasy. Be aware of what is required of you and how much you need to deliver. Stick to the plans.

Second decan (April 30-May 9)

Queen of Wands 

Be assertive and action oriented. You may also have to deal with a situation or a person who commands diligence. Be prepared with your plans and projects that may call for your attention.

Third decan (May 10-May 20)

IV of Swords 

Re-energise your mind through a much needed restful time. This is not the time for action. On the contrary if you take a pause now, you’ll be better prepared for action later. 

 

Gemini

First decan (May 21-May 30)

Hierophant 

If you have been thinking of going back to school or upskilling your learning, this would be a good time to start. The message of the week is to stick to the traditional norms and listen to your inner voice. 

Second decan (May 31-June 9)

VIII of Swords 

Singing the same tune will not help. Come out of this circular thinking. Only when you accept there’s a problem and think out-of-the-box will you be able to solve it.

Third decan (June 10-June 20)

King of Swords 

Put your intellect to good use this week. Putting your head over your heart will help you get some perspective. Be prepared with all facts just in case you happen to meet a superior this week.

 

Cancer

First decan (June 21-July 1)

Ace of Swords 

An idea would be worth investing your time and energy behind this week. Keep your thinking cap on, there could be a need for ideation. Be witty, but not ego-centric.

Second decan (July 2-July 11)

VII of Pentacles 

Your hard work will yield good results, but not just yet. Your patience will be put to test. Be strong willed. Continue to work hard while towing the path of righteousness and spirituality.

Third decan (July 12-July 22)

The Moon

There could be some confusion regarding a matter. You may tend to get misled. Think before you act as you may not see things in the right perspective.

 

Leo

First decan (July 23- August 2)

King of Pentacles 

There could be certain financial gains this week. You may be required to build your stability further. There could be a chance to drop your hat in the ring for a higher post.

Second decan (August 3-August 12)

III of Pentacles 

Your skills will be put to good use. Working with team mates will be a rewarding experience. Tap into your growth potential and expand your horizons. 

Third decan (August 13-August 22)

The Star

You’ll be at your optimum best this week. There’s no looking back. Ask what you want and it shall be granted. You may receive unexpected gifts, blessings and rewards which will raise your hopes.

 

Virgo

First decan (August 23-September 1)

IX of Pentacles 

It’s time for you to enjoy the fruit of your labour. There are no boundaries that can hold you back now. Take a break from work and indulge in some self care.

Second decan (September 2-September 11)

V of Cups

It could be a testing time for you. Raise your spiritual awareness and rise above material matters. Look at the positive side of life. There’s a lot you can do be grateful for.

Libra 

First decan (September 23-October 2)

Life is good this week. There’s high productivity, and social meets will translate into good stability for you. Make the most of the situation. The week clearly sets the tone for the year ahead.

Second decan (October 3-October 12)

Death

You may feel the need to transform your life. There are certain aspects that are no longer appealing to you as they’ve run their course. A much desired change — both at an internal and external level — could push you out of your comfort zone. This, however, is necessary for you.

Third decan (October 13-October 22)

The Moon

Don’t get deluded. See things in the right perspective. You could be swaying away from the right path. Make an informed decision. Don’t trust people blindly this week. 

 

Scorpio

First decan (October 23-November 1)

The Hermit

A certain matter requires your urgent need to introspect. Take a solo trip if need be, spend some time doing the due diligence before signing on the dotted line. You may seek assistance from a higher authority.

Second decan (November 2-November 11)

 

Justice

Karma has a tendency of catching up with our deeds, apparently quite suddenly. Get a balance in life if there’s a need to. Get clarity on any legal matters that may require your attention. Do what you think is right.

Third decan (November 12-November 21)

VI of Pentacles 

There could be a compelling need to give your time or money to a cause. If you provide pro bono help, a seeker may show up. Be empathetic. 

 

Sagittarius

First decan (November 22-December 1)

It’s a great time to get things moving. Raise your hopes as the universe is blessing you this week. Expect the unexpected in a positive way. Ensure you welcome this energy.

Third decan (December 12-December 21)

VIII of Cups

You may feel the need to retreat into your inner world of peace. It’ll be a much needed break from the external life of stress. Be sure to not leave anything unfulfilled.

 

Capricorn

First decan (December 22-December 31)

VIII of Pentacles 

You’re in fine fettle to work hard. So make hay while the sun shines. This is a good phase to increase your productivity and growth. Remain focused on work.

Efforts put in the past are paying off. You’ll be blessed with good emotional health. Be grateful for all that you have. Be kind and spread happiness to others in need.

Third decan (January 11-January 19)

Ace of Swords 

It's a fertile time to seed a good idea. Be alert this week to pick up vibes that could help you in your life. Use your judgement and wisdom to gauge what’s currently manifesting in your life.

 

Aquarius

First decan (January 20-January 29)

X of Pentacles 

It’s a good time to connect with your work mates and clients. You’ll get invited to social events where you can network. This is a high productivity/growth phase for you. Make the most of it.

Second decan (January 30-February 8)

III of Swords 

A certain project or partnership may fail to take off. But these were early days and you can always start afresh. Get a balance in your life and raise your awareness levels which will help you in the process of healing. 

Third decan (February 9-February 18)

V of Swords 

Being cautious in what you say is better than facing the consequences later. There’s no point in winning arguments to appease your ego. This may cost you dearly as you may end up losing key allies.

 

Pisces

First decan (February 19-February 28/29)

You are blessed with abundance. Be grateful and charitable as well by being kind to others. Use this opportunity to nurture your relationships and fuel your ideas which are novel enough to bring you good tidings.

There’s enough to satisfy your emotional well-being. In fact, you could provide quite a relief to others on this count. Your innate nature of being caring could reach a peak.
