The tarot horoscope for your zodiac sign for August 27, 2024.
Aries (March 21 – April 19)
Tarot card: Ten of Wands
There’s a difference between pressure that builds and pressure that destroys, Aries. You may be feeling the weight of pressures in your life right now. This could be a period of growth where you’re feeling the strain that comes with doing more and adjusting to the extra responsibility. Are you overextending yourself by saying yes to too many things? Are they the wrong things or the right things? Make up your mind.
Taurus (April 20 – May 20)
Tarot card: Ten of Swords, reversed
Delayed gratification often produces better results that quick gratification never allows. Don’t be fooled, Taurus, into thinking that if you have to work long and hard, there is no reward. Good things are coming. Find peace in knowing that you get what you put in.
Gemini (May 21 – June 20)
Tarot card: The Emperor
You have to be strong, Gemini. Standing up for what you believe in doesn’t necessarily mean you’re unkind. Sometimes you have to put aside your desire to be liked for a greater cause. Stand firm in your convictions.
Cancer (June 21 – July 22)
Tarot card: The Moon
Less is more. Be the mysterious one today. You don’t have to reveal all your secrets. Keep some things to yourself. Let people get to know you and all your phases. Take your time and let the nurturing of a relationship reveal your inner thoughts and feelings. Some may say that your mystery makes you a person they can’t feel close to, and that’s okay. You want to be around people who are willing to take the time to get to know you, and there are no shortcuts to gaining trust.
Leo (July 23 – August 22)
Tarot card: Two of Wands
Which path should you choose? Life is full of choices, and if after a few dates with a few people you have a lot of options – jobs, friendships, a partner – it’s not quite clear. You want to make the right choice. What to do? Follow your heart. Listen to your mind, but it’s in your heart that the truth speaks loudest.
Virgo (23 August – 22 September)
Tarot card: The Tower
It’s tough when you find yourself having to deal with something you didn’t plan or expect. Today’s change in schedule can make you feel like you’re losing time and falling behind. However, time is a strange thing to deal with. What takes you a while could end up being the only thing that enables you to finish the day strong. Instead of getting upset about what the universe has seemingly thrown your way, be open to the miracle of change and anticipate what’s coming next.
Libra (September 23 – October 22)
Tarot card: The Star
Share your knowledge with others. You have a lot of inner wisdom, Libra. Don’t be a knowledge keeper who prevents others from moving forward in life because you’ve helped them. One of the most powerful things you can do in your life is to influence and empower others. Today, teaching others your knowledge is a great service to a greater good.
Scorpio (October 23rd – November 21st)
Tarot card: The Fool
You’re ready to get started and do something you love. An opportunity may be coming your way, and even if you don’t feel prepared, now is not the time to wait. Take action and then figure things out as you go. An imperfect start is much better than one that never happens. Action today is better than perfection.
Sagittarius (November 22 – December 21)
Tarot card: Nine of Coins
It’s time to start over. The past is behind you. It provides you with memories to help you make wise decisions in the future, but nothing you do can affect the past. What matters is the now and the future. Clear the slate, Sagittarius. It’s a new day. You have so much more to look forward to. You can mourn the past, but don’t spend too much of your life looking in the rearview mirror.
Capricorn (December 22 – January 19)
Tarot card: Knight of Coins
This moment is the calm before the storm, and you can decide for yourself whether you want to ride out the storm. You can wait until the chaos is over. Nothing has to happen if you don’t allow it to. You are in control of yourself.
Aquarius (January 20 – February 18)
Tarot card: Ten of Coins
Your family of origin helped you become who you are today. While there are things you may not appreciate, even negative lessons can have positive impacts for you. You can learn from your family experiences, and the best part is that you can take what you think is best and pass it on.
Pisces (February 19 – March 20)
Tarot card: The Empress
Think things through and listen to your intuition, Pisces. This is a wonderful time to gain clarity, determine if adjustments need to be made, and make sure you’re prioritizing rest to be all you can be.
