TAROT READING FOR THE WEEK OF AUGUST 24, 2025

For additional insight for my viewers, here is this week's Tarot reading. An overview of major astrology transits for this week helps focus the Tarot.

• The Sun has entered Virgo, where it will remain until September 22. The New Moon [August 23] was also in Virgo, making it conjunct the Sun. For those with Virgo birthdays in the last week of August, now is the perfect time to plan some new strategies for organizing areas of your life that have felt off balance. Kitchen/pantry? Diet? Clutter? Whatever it is, you have the extra energy to make it happen.

• Venus moves into Leo until September 19, bringing love and generosity to relationships and finances. On Monday, Venus trines Saturn, looking for stability and maturity in those relationships and finances. On Tuesday, Venus sextiles Uranus, offering some risk-taking and unconventional opportunities. Also on Tuesday, Venus trines Neptune, creating a feeling of magic and romance; we see the best in people. On Wednesday and Thursday, Venus opposes Pluto, bringing some emotional tension and fear of disappointment.

I always take a few moments of quiet to center myself, take a few deep breaths, and listen to intuition coming forth as I shuffle the cards. For the Zodiac signs this week, I'm using the traditional Rider-Waite deck.

• Collective card: Eight of Cups

The romantic pull of Venus this week is tempting. However, stay grounded. Resist those urges that your gut/intuition is warning you against. Take the high ground when in doubt.

• ARIES [the Ram]: King of Pentacles

This is a prosperous week. Finances feel stable. Respect your instincts to create or sustain a lasting relationship. You’re in it for the long term.

• TAURUS [the Bull]: The Tower

Sudden changes are likely. As suggested in the Collective Card, stay grounded. Remember that life is an adventure and change means you’re evolving to another level.

• GEMINI [the Twins]: Nine of Swords

All this focus on Venus may have you feeling anxious. Take some private time to reassess whatever is bothering you. You may not necessarily want to take action; just be aware. This too shall pass.

• CANCER [the Crab]: Queen of Pentacles

Inner peace is at hand. Not only do you possess great strength, but you use it to help others achieve their own strength. Enjoy the love and passion that flows toward you.

• LEO [the Lion}: The Moon

Delays that occur this week give you the opportunity to pause and reconsider options. Listen to your solid instincts instead of being fearful of disappointment.

• VIRGO [the Virgin]: Six of Pentacles

A windfall, financial or otherwise, can be expected this week. Your sense of generosity beckons you to share this auspicious period with those closest to you.

• LIBRA [the Scales]: Page of Swords

It’s okay to sit on the sidelines sometimes and just observe. Action on your part is not always necessary or needed. This may be one of those weeks for you to be there if needed but not to volunteer your services if not called upon.

• SCORPIO [the Scorpion]: Nine of Pentacles

You are self-sufficient and reliable. Stay attuned to the luxuries that surround you, and show your patience by going at the pace of nature – slow and calm.

• SAGITTARIUS [the Archer]: Knight of Swords

You are brave and skilled; yet know better than to pick a fight you are not sure you can win. Step back, reconsider before barreling ahead with an uncertain plan.

• CAPRICORN [the Sea-Goat]: Ten of Cups

Venus speaks especially to you this week. Appreciate the love of your family/friends and the abundance of a life fulfilled. Honor the Spirit that provides.

• AQUARIUS [the Water Bearer]: Queen of Wands

Your positive approach to life and appreciation of a life well lived provides you with joyous experiences and protection from harm this week. Relish the wealth.

• PISCES [the Fish]: King of Cups

Diplomacy ranks high as you tend to your responsibilities this week. You have an innate ability to put aside your fears and achieve success, paying close attention to your creative skills.
