Think before you act; maintain moderation
When I sat down to read the cards for the Week Ahead (October 19-October 25), they once again pointed towards new beginnings. I decided to analyse my previous readings and I found since the last twelve weeks or so, the cards have revealed new beginnings and turning points for the collective week after week.
When you analyse your life during this period, you’ll notice that something has changed — be it in your personal relationships or your job or your outlook, your point of view or any other aspect that’s significant to you.
New buds are expected to form this week as well. But when life propels us forward, it’s important that we remain rooted and maintain a balance by bringing in moderation.
Think before you act and understand the implications so as to not upset the scales.
How one navigates the day-to-day structures of life could be put to scrutiny this week.
There could be a tug-of-war between the ego and the need to maintain harmony. Every action is likely to attract consequences. One needs to be mindful of the conversations both internally and externally.
The Queen cards are absent this week, and thus the collective is advised to demonstrate compassion.
Growth is indicated so choose wisely what areas of your life you wish to expand beginning this week.
Here’s wishing you all an auspicious and delightful Diwali!

[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.]
