This week, Pluto moves into Aquarius and Mars moves into Cancer. Both transits are here till late Spring/Summer, so we’ve time to settle in.
Pluto in Aquarius makes us want to make the world a better place and work together on this goal. Mars in Cancer brings drama to close relationships, revealing secret tensions or jealousies or even passions.
You might therefore have your hands full. Perhaps let the Aquarius side of things lead the way – set an example, be the bigger person, do what your ‘higher self’ would advise in these squalls or spats with others.
Let the tarot guide you towards the guiding light or principle to adopt throughout any and all relationship drama coming your way.

Tarot card for Aries for this week: Knight of Cups
Meaning: Charm your way through it, Aries. Smile, compliment, joke, banter, cajole, encourage, laugh.
You are a warm and loving person, your charisma is infectious and healing. You can soothe a furrowed brow just with your lively and magnetic presence.
The Knight of Cups urges you to pour sugar (vs boiling water) over conflicts and tensions. Most of the hot air will evaporate in the face of your happy smile and kind words.

Take a second to work out your next move, Gemini (Picture: Getty/Metro.co.uk)
Tarot card for Gemini for this week: Nine of Coins
Meaning: Always play the long game. Don’t react in the moment or follow the knee jerk impulse. Pause, step back, reflect, think about how important this will all be in one, five, 10 years’ time.
The Nine of Coins shows you can overreact in the moment and make things worse, but when you let people run out of steam, be their own enemy, and simmer down, well, things get sorted out a lot quicker and you stay out of the firing line.
Keep your cool. Look ahead.

Tarot card for Cancer for this week: King of Swords
Meaning: Although you’re known as a very emotional sign, you’re super intellectual too and love to analyse things.
Bring this side of yourself to the table when any conflict emerges. The King of Swords is objective, rational, dispassionate, and calm. This is the self you need to channel in the face of adversity.
Have your emotions out in private, rant and rave, journal, mirror talk. But, in person, be that voice of reason.

Tarot card for Leo for this week: The Moon
Meaning: You love playing detective and that is your designated role in any emerging drama this Spring/Summer.
The Moon shows there are unknown undercurrents and shadows lurking that you, and you alone, can discover and reveal. Getting to the root cause of things will solve them for good.

The Six of Wands shows that you are trusted and admired by others – and if you say it’s good, then it’s good. So why rock the boat and make things worse?
You can help to resolve many issues by simply reminding people why they love or like each other and of the good times.

Libra
September 24 to October 23
Libra, are your expectations realistic to your experiences? (Picture: Getty/Metro.co.uk)
Tarot card for Libra for this week: Temperance
Meaning: Remember that not all relationships are built to, or meant to, stand the rigours of all time. Some people are seasonal vs perennial. Some bonds fray and split and that’s the natural conclusion.
Temperance asks you to release expectations in conflicts. Let things play out and notice the changes or shifting dynamics that have created the tension.
Can the bonds stand up to the new demands and situation? If so, it’s worth working on. If not, let things go.

Tarot card for Scorpio for this week: The High Priestess
Meaning: The High Priestess urges you to follow your gut instinct and intuition when it comes to boiling tensions or frustrations in the relationships around you, or even your own.
Don’t listen to their words for the truth, look at their actions. Obey your instincts. Have faith in the inner voice that whispers to you things that may be hard to hear.
Your intuition is built around one objective: protecting you. No other skill can do that for you. Don’t discount it.

You’re rising above it (Picture: Getty/Metro.co.uk)
Tarot card for Sagittarius for this week: Three of Swords
Meaning: Give yourself permission, Sagittarius, to remove yourself from toxicity or negativity in and around your relationship landscape.
A toxic person will infect their entire environment. It’s inevitable, so don’t be a casualty to someone else’s misery and bad intentions.
The Three of Swords shows you might need to call time and walk away from some drama, betrayal, nastiness or poor choices. Leave them to it. You can do better.

Capricorn
December 22 to January 21
People will respond better when they’re allowed to freely express their emotions (Picture: Getty/Metro.co.uk)
Tarot card for Capricorn for this week: Five of Swords
Meaning: Cap, sometimes you have to step back and let the emotions play out. Let people have their anger or sadness or regret or doubt. Let them figure it out themselves.
Trying to cajole, bully, or influence them out of it is pointless, and will wear you out. Don’t pour fuel on the fire, but don’t pour water on it either. Let it burn itself out then step back in with a practical measure or solution.
The Five of Swords sees you being the pragmatic counsellor after the storm is over.

Your unique perspective can be particularly useful (Picture: Getty/Metro.co.uk)
Tarot card for Aquarius for this week: Ace of Swords
Meaning: Your astrological symbol is the water bearer, a symbol of purity and truth. And you are known for being incredibly honest, clear-eyed, and objective.
The Ace of Swords asks you to hold a mirror of truth up to others when in conflict. Don’t mince your words. Say it firmly and clearly. Say what everyone else is probably thinking but won’t say.
You are strong enough to take on this role, and someone needs to or we all hide behind euphemisms and half truths. Help others get to the crux of the issue and tackle it there by leading them towards the truth they need to express and hear.
