Reciprocity: A Valentine’s Day wish for this week!

 

If you can look through the maze of delusion this week, the crown is yours. With the King of Wands being pulled thrice for the Week Ahead (February 10- February 16), there’s stress on acting with maturity at a collective level. Rising above ego issues and bringing balance into one’s life will be useful. With The Star being pulled twice, the universe will shower its blessings. From last week’s trend that we picked about fresh starts, this week asks you to be more receptive given that ‘2’ has appeared six times. That could hold the key to success. Reciprocity can also make this Valentine's Day special!

Check out your decan-specific tarot readings and comment if you have anything to share. If you want me to deep dive into your reading, write to me at namratasingh.ns@gmail.com.

[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.]

 

Here we go…
