Do your bit, forget about it
This week (December 21-December 27), deep shifts are likely to take place in the collective consciousness.
Psychological patterns could surface or see a change.
This week could be about an inner transformation that’s pushing the collective towards a new awakening.
One is also being prompted to look beyond oneself. Keep your aspirations aside and become more compassionate.
The cards ask you to introspect, be innovative and resourceful, and be mindful of every moment you experience and every step you take.
Looking at this week’s cards, I am reminded of one of the key lessons from the Bhagavad Gita: Do your duty; don’t wait for the result.
Some tasks need to be performed irrespective of the outcomes. This week is not about viewing everything through the lens of gains and outcomes.
There is a lack of balance, structure and stability. If there’s something you’ve been waiting for to materialise, you may want to look at alternative options or wait for the time to come. With just about 10 days left, let next year’s energies offer a platform for your plans to land well.
What you sow this week is likely to bear fruit when the time is ripe.
Do your best. Let go. Move on to a new dawn.

[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.]

Leo

Third decan (September 12-September 22)
The Empress

Libra
First decan (September 23-October 2)

Second decan (October 3-October 12)
The Fool
As you begin afresh, it’s good to be ready to learn and take things as they come. Be positive but also be cautious so as not to allow for any missteps. Starting from zero, you’ve got nothing to lose.

Third decan (March 11-March 20)
Queen of Cups
Your heart is filled with warmth and you are generous enough to share all the same. Compassion comes naturally to you and this week you must also learn to listen to your heart. Self-care is equally important.
