Tarot for the Week Ahead (May 20-26) has an extraordinary earth element tilt to it. While on the one hand this points towards stabiity and security, on the flip side, there's also rigidity and inflexibility. When the winds of change blow, it's the former that'll thrive. What are we materializing at a collective level? By looking at a snapshot of the cards pulled for this week ahead, it is clear that some results from the efforts made in the past will now be visible. Rewards will be commensurate with the actions. Some surprises could show up. What may come as a revelation to some would require courage to assimilate. Change or transformation at a swift pace appears imminent. Some partnerships are likely to flourish, while some may get stuck. Seeds of new ideas would also likely be sown to continue the cycle of growth. Importantly, what would emerge after the dust settles should bring joy and warmth. Hopes and aspirations on that count are high.
[Unlike other columns on zodiac signs, I make efforts 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.]
