Tarot of the Week

Tarot of the Week

Deck: Dancing in the Dark Tarot by Gianfranco Pereno and Lunaea Weatherstone, published by Lo Scarabeo.

Card: M12, Knight of Swords

The incoming week is liable to trigger a strong desire to take action despite the number of obstacles or difficulties in order to achieve an important goal. The ability to think clearly and decisively is also a likely requirement. There may also be an emphasis on the ability to communicate exceptionally well in order to better understand the circumstances of an issue and the work necessary to resolve it.

Conversely, feeling frustrated or restless could result in taking a misguided or even rash approach to problem-solving. Additionally, overworking and operating at a breakneck speed are unlikely to yield the desired results. Having a steady focus and goal and not becoming mired down in irrelevant minutiae is perhaps the best advice for staying on track.
