Tarot of the Week

Tarot of the Week

Deck: The Transparent Tarot, bby Emily Carding, published by REDFeather, Mind, Body Spirit, an imprint of Shiffer Publishing, Ltd.

Card: Knight of Swords

The next seven days are likely to offer opportunities for being assertive when applying one’s intellect to understanding and resolving issues. Additionally, it supports the ability to cut through deception and murky claims to reveal the truth. The underlying energy of the week is liable to encourage swift action without much preparation or forethought. Engaging with others and having a solid handle on the issues at hand is advised before taking aggressive action.

Contrarily, the potential for feeling driven to take action but lacking direction could lead to frustration and restlessness. There is equally the possibility of making rash or impulsive decisions that undermine the intended goal. Taking a step back, slowing down, and re-establishing a clear focus is warranted. Not doing so is more likely to result in a downward spiral that ends in burnout and exhaustion.
