Tarot of the Week

Tarot of the Week

Deck: Guardian of the Night Tarot, by MJ Cullinane, published by Hay House, Inc.

Card: King of Wands

The next seven days are likely to call for channeling one’s inner lion to roar in order to have an impact in a way that is soulful, charismatic, and visceral. Whatever challenges might pop up, the key to moving forward once attention is gained is to provide a clear, thought-provoking, and impassioned vision for the future. Proper use of power is heavily indicated.

In contrast, allowing arrogance to rule in the decision-making process is liable to result in reckless behavior and undermine plans by disempowering the very people whose actions and support are needed. Being in a position of power often comes with extra accountability and is unlikely to allow for aggressive and wildly imprudent actions—at least not for long before the behavior ends up getting checked and corrected.
