Tarot for the Collective


Welcome to this week’s Tarot Forecast, dear souls. With the new moon in Capricorn just behind us, the energy is ripe for mindful intention setting and gentle reflection. Capricorn’s influence encourages us to build solid structures for the year ahead, inviting us to slow down, contemplate, and plant seeds for the future. This week, let’s allow ourselves space to dream, ground, and gently move forward, trusting that the foundations we lay now will support us all year long.





Three tarot cards are displayed. From left: 7 of Cups, Queen of Pentacles, and 6 of Swords. Warm lighting and mystical imagery.

7 of Cups

The 7 of Cups arrives as a kaleidoscope of possibilities. This card highlights the many dreams, desires, and options swirling around you right now. While it’s wonderful to have choices, the 7 of Cups also cautions against becoming overwhelmed or scattered. Take time to discern what truly matters to you, rather than chasing every shiny opportunity. The new moon’s energy supports you in clarifying your intentions, so let your heart guide you towards what feels authentic. Remember, not every cup needs to be chosen. Focus on aligning your actions with your core values and long-term vision.


Affirmation: I trust my intuition to guide me towards what is right for me.


Queen of Pentacles

The Queen of Pentacles embodies nurturing, abundance, and practical magic. She reminds you to tend lovingly to your needs and the needs of those around you, creating a sense of security and comfort. This week, prioritise self-care and practical steps that bring stability to your life. The Queen encourages you to honour your resources, both material and emotional, and to create a harmonious environment where you can flourish. Ground yourself in daily rituals, nourish your body, and trust in your ability to manifest your goals through steady, loving action.


Affirmation: I nurture myself and my dreams with patience and care.


6 of Swords

The 6 of Swords signals a gentle transition. You may find yourself moving away from old patterns or situations that no longer serve your highest good. This card invites you to trust the journey, even if the destination is not yet clear. Allow the new moon’s energy to help you release what you’ve outgrown and embrace the promise of calmer waters ahead. Healing and clarity are on the horizon, so be gentle with yourself as you navigate these changes. Remember, every small step forward is progress.


Affirmation: I release the past and move forward with hope and trust.

Embodying the Ace of Cups

Our headliner for the month, the Ace of Cups, encourages us to open our hearts to new beginnings and emotional renewal. To align with this energy, approach your intentions with compassion and curiosity. Let self-love and kindness flow into your plans, allowing creativity and intuition to guide your next steps. The more you nurture your emotional wellbeing, the more you’ll notice abundance blossoming in all areas of your life.
