The Tarot Reading from April 4 through April 10, 2015 promises a time of hope and healing. Though hard work is key, you will eventually find your way and accomplish your goals. Some sacrifice, however, may be necessary.
Card 1: The Star—You need to seize the opportunity to be the center of your own life. If you can do this, you will enter into a time of healing and hope. Wonder will rest around every corner. Try to relax and reconnect with yourself, body and soul. Focus on the good, not on the negative and things will go smoother.
Card 2: Seven of Pentacles—You may find yourself feeling frustrated or even impotent at times. You might even feel ingratitude if you don't receive what you expected. Try expecting nothing. Count the blessings you have instead of pining for those you don't. Focus on the present, on your goals, and you'll soon find yourself moving forward.
Card 3: King of Swords—A lack of intellectualism or planning may hinder progress. Theories may fail when put to the test, so don't jump in without a solid plan. Value the intellectual contributions of others, but don't forget to value your own intellect as well. You are the driving force here.
Card 4: Two of Wands—Crucial to any success is the ability to step back and assess the current situation while planning for the future. Try to be as free of distractions as possible as you map out your plans. You'll have a better chance at spotting all the little details this way. Stay calm and don't lose perspective.
Card 5: Wheel of Fortune—The recent past, while likely involved a time of danger and risky opportunities, is over. You can now enter into a new cycles without any of that hanging around your neck. It is time to make your own luck and forge your own path toward success. This may mean, however, that your more free-wheeling days are over.
Card 6: Six of Swords—Challenges are everywhere, so it might be helpful to see them as rites of passage. If you can pass through them, you'll find that you gain both power and wisdom. Conquer the seemingly-inexhaustible number of challenges you currently face and you'll be richly rewarded.
Card 7: Eight of Pentacles—Hard work and attention to detail are absolutely necessary if you are to achieve your goals. But success depends on moving forward, so don't be a perfectionist. You'll only stagnate if you insist on perfection.
Card 8: The Fool—If you want to achieve success, present yourself as someone who is trusting an innocent. Do not fear the future, but move steadily toward it. Approach the situation with a sense of humor, and insist that others do the same, and things will be easier for all involved. Trust that you've done the things you need to do.
Card 9: Knight of Wands—Others may notice your ambition, and even comment on it. You appear to everyone to be on the move as your pursue your goal. Because they perceive this of you, they may be more than willing to help you achieve success. Take advantage of that. Ignore those who only see you as overbearing and unable to take a breath. You're on a mission at the moment.
Card 10: King of Cups—You may hope that you can deal with strong emotions both creatively and effectively, but you fear this may not be the case. You may even fear the effects of jealously. But fear won't help you now. Time to cope with the situation.
Card 11: Ace of Swords—Triumph, in all its forms, is yours. You will conquer lies and ignorance. You will tackle adversity and come out the better for it. And while you're celebrating your accomplishments, a brilliant new idea will suddenly reveal itself. And so you revel in your triumph just as you set out on a new path. Full circle, one might say.
The Tarot reading from February 7 through February 13, 2015 warns that you may be playing a dangerous game. Ups and downs are inevitable. You may have to decide if the ends truly justify the means.
Card 1: The Devil—You may feel that you need something desperately and you may be willing to do anything, even something you know is wrong, to attain your goals. But this is a risky thing and it may or may not pay off in the end. Either way, outright deception is going to backfire.
Card 2: Six of Wands—Conditions favor victory, but that doesn't mean success will come easily. You're more likely to get what you want if you truly desire it and are willing to go after it. Short-term victories can turn into long-term victories if you're willing to share your success with those who have been instrumental in helping you achieve your goals.
Card 3: Queen of Wands—A lack of inspiration can really get in the way right now, but you'll need more than inspiration to make any progress. Hard work combined with inspiration is definitely the way to go, but this combination may be difficult to come by. Focus and get moving.
Card 4: Four of Wands—If you want to be successful, you have to be ready to commit for the long term. Finish what you start and make sure you celebrate your successes with those closest to you. Supporting others is important to attaining their support in your own ventures, so reach out.
Card 5: The High Priestess—Things may have been chaotic lately, or perhaps it's just seemed as if you had absolutely no control over what the Fates were up to. This is coming to and end now, allowing you to seize control over the immediate future. And while this is a good thing, don't forget the lessons learned.
Card 6: Five of Wands—A competitive atmosphere is a good thing, but compete with some respect and you'll find everything goes just a little smoother. Don't fight just for the sake of fighting. There will come a time when you'll need that energy.
Card 7: The Star—Relaxation and healing are about to become quite important. Though you'll have to work hard for what you want, you'll also need to know the value of rest. Be prepared to take a break if things become overwhelming.
Card 8: Four of Swords—You'll need more than a break from stress if you want to attain your goal. You'll have to actually find a quiet space to reflect and consider the situation. Don't be rushed into anything and don't let anyone talk you into something that's not in your best interest.
Card 9: The Tower—Some may see you as wild, dangerous, and willing to risk anything for what you want. There is some truth to this, especially because this is a time to be unafraid of change. There might be some who accuse you of trying to destroy the status quo. Ignore them.
Card 10: Knight of Wands—You are truly hoping to achieve your goals, but you fear the drastic changes you'll have to make to accomplish them. You have two choices. You can conquer this fear and move forward or you can abandon your plans. Choose one and commit.
Card 11: Queen of Cups—Whether you achieved your goal or not has been highly dependent upon your own choices. Either way, compassion right now is important. Compassion for those you may have hurt on the way here. Compassion for yourself as you let your high ideals go. The ups and downs of this journey may not have given you want you want, but there's still a lesson to be learned.
The Tarot reading from January 31 through February 6, 2015 promises eventual success and celebration, but not without hardship. Nothing worth having ever comes easily, so be prepared to struggle as you strive to attain your goal. A new way of doing things might be helpful as well.

Card 3: King of Pentacles—Pragmatism is great, but not when it gets in the way of progress. Don't ignore hard facts, but don't be afraid to move forward without them either. Lack of sophistication may hamper you.
Card 4: The Fool—In order to get what you want you may have to trust that innocence and truth will eventually win out. Don't overanalyze. There is a place for harsh pragmatism and a place for faith. Faith should take precedence now.
Card 5: Two of Swords—The time for practical balance and blind justice is fading. It may now be time to break from the typical way of doing things. You'll have to compromise if you want to break free of the past.
Card 6: The Hierophant—The blessings of family, friends, and those in authority will be helpful now, especially for your own sense of righteousness. This will give you the confidence you need to keep going.
Card 7: Nine of Swords—Get some rest and be prepared to deal with problems head on. This isn't the time to be a martyr, so confront your fears before they turn into obsessions. Paranoia won't serve you now, so see things as they are, not as you think they are.
Card 8: Judgement—Try to be the kind of person who has mastered the art of decision-making. Think about all possible options, then choose one and move forward. Sitting around without making a choice isn't going to get you where you want to go.
Card 9: The Empress—Others may see you as a source of great creativity. Embrace this and even indulge your creative side. As you do so, be prepared to discover something that will help you attain your goals.
Card 10: The Tower—You may fear that disaster will strike as you grow nearer your goal. But dwelling on it only makes it more likely to happen. Stop looking for what you fear and instead look to the future.

Card 1: The World—A higher level of understanding is required for you to enjoy real success. This is a time of culmination, so honor it by meeting your potential. An old cycle is coming to an end, so leave inappropriate habits and feelings behind.
Card 2: Four of Swords—You are surrounded by calm detachment. Forces are pushing you toward seclusion, giving you the opportunity to examine your thoughts and feelings without distractions or unnecessary stress. This may come in handy.
Card 3: Death—Your progress is being blocked by too little transformation. Growth is being inhibited by fear of change. Set aside this fear if you want to advance.

Card 8: Page of Pentacles—Don't be afraid to get dirty in pursuit of your goals. Show others you're willing to put in some honest work if it means you gain something from it. But now is not the time to do something for nothing.
Card 9: Ace of Cups—Others may see you as someone who can give and receive love unconditionally. They rely on your compassion to get through life. But someone may be looking to take advantage of you, so be wary.

Card 11: Page of Cups—You will have to treat the situation with kid gloves, but if you do it's entirely possible that you will achieve your desires. Someone new, something of your own making, is heading toward you at full speed, so get ready.
