Raise your awareness, make right choices
The Week Ahead (August 5-August 11) kick starts with the new moon in Leo. The High Priestess card (the Moon) has appeared in the third decan of Cancer, which can be seen as the threshold of Leo.
What are we likely creating collectively?
The week ahead could be marked by a sudden change in plans. The Tower card has appeared twice. Though it’s an intense card, I would advise those who get this card to lie low this week and let the storm pass.
The Death card is pointing at a possible necessary transformation required.
Mars which appears six times, and the conspicuous absence of numerical ten, indicates that there is no escaping the situation.
The Strength card gives great support as well as the planet Sun which appears four times.
The Ace of Cups is there for those who want to tap into its healing energies.
Venus appearing seven times provides a fertile ground for outcomes.
Make the right choices and be ready to pay back for what was created in the past.

[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.]
