Zodiac Tarot-Scopes (Eclipse Special) August 20 - 26
Leo Eclipse and Triple Virgos
This is a very special week. Not only do we have the Leo eclipse on the 21st, but we have a triple Virgo going on from the 23rd – 24th (start of Virgo season).
In short, this eclipse is known as the “Death of a King.” A lot of people want to take this time to speak about the rise and fall of a great leader, but I won’t get into politics. An eclipse affects everyone, so we will just stick with that, lol.
You will either rise or fall under the Leo Eclipse. Meaning, you will either let the old you die or you will transform into a darker version of yourself. That choice is ultimately up to you.
You will either rise or fall under the Leo Eclipse.
The Leo eclipse can also make or break your goals. It’s a lot of pressure living up to royal standards 😉
This week the Moon shifts from Leo (fire), Virgo (earth), and Libra (air).
- Leo Moon: Sunday – Monday
- Leo Eclipse: Monday
- Virgo Moon: Tuesday – Thursday
- Libra Moon: Friday – Saturday
Virgo Mercury is in retrograde and ends on September 5th. Virgo Season starts on the 23rd and with it, we will experience a triple effect: Sun, Moon, and Mercury (retrograde). There is added pressure to perfect ourselves and our environment.

Aries
Emperor: This card is associated with Aries in tarot.
Here are your tarot cards for the week:
The Knight of Swords (Taurus/Gemini) sits on top of The Emperor (Aries). Next to it sits the 6 of Chalices. This week is about swift decisions that lead to desirable rewards.
This week is about swift decisions that lead to desirable rewards.
Who’s afraid of the big bad eclipse? Not you, lol. This week will be a little intense for you, but nothing that will scare you away. The Leo Eclipse will heighten your need for a bigger and better life. You will find that it empowers your energy instead of breaking it.
When the Virgo Moon sets in, you’ll see that these dreams need a realistic foundation. You’ll be harder on yourself mentally and emotionally, while pushing yourself harder physically. The Knight of Swords states that you will be swift, and you will act with much logic and creativity when faced with these challenges.
The 6 of Chalices predicts that you will rise above and fish out all that you desire. Shake off any intense negativity. Show the universe that you’re not the type to go down without a fight. Remember to take it easy if you feel like you’re going to burn out.

Taurus
The Hierophant: This card is associated with Taurus in tarot.
Here are your tarot cards for the week:
The Emperor (Aries) sits on top of The Hierophant (Taurus). Next to it sits the 4 of Chalices (Cancer). This week is about conquering your passions or falling apart completely.
This week is about conquering your passions or falling apart completely.
The eclipse may be the straw that breaks the camel’s back. Luckily, you’re not a camel. You’re a bull, lol. You’ll start to feel like there is more to life than the mundane. Notice the Emperor sitting on your card. The leader in you will appear, and your need to conquer and do more will start to pressure your soul.
You may want to be careful. You’re known to plow down the fields day in, day out (workaholic, lol). The 4 of Chalices warns a Taurus falling back into old negative habits that will lead to ruin. Try not to be too hard on yourself if you feel stuck or entrapped. Instead, use that Taurus patience.
The triple Virgo Moon happening on Wednesday and Thursday may give you the answer you’re looking for. Expect higher standards, heightened perception and the need to accumulate more stuff. Beware of any negative judgments you place on others.

Gemini
The Lovers: This card is associated with Gemini in tarot.
Here are your tarot cards for the week:
The Knight of Wands (Scorpio/Sagittarius) sits on top of The Lovers (Gemini). Next to it sits The Empress (Venus). This week is about powerful growth and maturity.
This week is about powerful growth and maturity.
Wow, this eclipse isn’t going to prevent you from soaring the skies in style, lol. Check out those wings (Knight of Wands). You will be fixated on the horizons and stretching yourself out wider, but try not to spread yourself thin. The new Virgo season will have you thinking of ways to get organized and get focused. You will yearn to be more responsible.
The Empress predicts powerful growth and maturity within you. You will be faced with a lot of deep thinking that may lead to overthinking, and then you might get a little anxiety, lol. Try not to let it get to you, instead think of ways to write down all these ideas. Don’t even try to do everything all at once. Get a list going and check them off one by one (pace yourself).
Let old habits die because this is a good time to reinvent yourself and your way of physically doing things. Your sign, to me, is the genius inventor of the zodiac, so get into the habit of wild brainstorms that lead to great inventions.

Cancer
VII Chariot: This card is associated with Cancer in tarot.
Here are your tarot cards for the week:
The Ace of Swords (Gemini, Libra, Aquarius) sits on top of The Chariot (Cancer). Next to it sits The Tower (Mars). This week will lead to higher thinking and perspective, or lead to an energy breakdown.
This week will lead to higher thinking and perspective, or lead to an energy breakdown.
The eclipse will make or break you emotionally. Yes, I said it, lol. However, the Ace of Swords states that you will be led into the halls of great concepts, ideas, philosophies, and overall higher thinking and learning. With all this newfound knowledge, how can one breakdown? Well, I’m glad you asked.
The Tower predicts that the pressure of others will take a toll on your energies. The Virgo season and the triple Virgo this week will cause you to have hyper focus. It will shed light on things you didn’t even notice before when it comes to your self-esteem. Now that you’re aware of this, it won’t be time to panic.
Instead look at this differently. Cancers have a bad habit of seeing things negatively. The Tower can be seen two ways: destruction or reconstruction. Sometimes you have to break a building to make a better one. That’s where you stand. Destroy all those negative thoughts holding you back from empowering yourself internally.

Leo
Strength: This card is associated with Leo in tarot.
Here are your tarot cards for the week:
The 6 of Pentacles (Taurus) sits on top of Strength (Leo). Next to it sits the 2 of Wands (Aries). This week is about building the right connections that lead to more exploration.
This week is about building the right connections that lead to more exploration.
The generous eclipse will take over your spirits (in a good way). You will soak in all that you desire and will be granted access to seek and explore new options. The 6 of Pentacles states that you will find generosity in yourself and in others, especially when it comes to financial gain. This is a good time to make use of this positive energy and network.
But alas, everyone’s star rises and falls. The Leo season is coming to an end this week, the Virgo season will take over and you will be focused on the new you. Get ready to concentrate, though you may get irritated and frustrated with the pace.
You have to take your time and strategize where you’re headed next. Now is not the time to be impulsive or irrational. But you’re a Leo, you’ve got this. Place your paw on the map and claw out a route for your next destination.

Virgo
The Hermit: This card is associated with Virgo in tarot.
Here are your tarot cards for the week:
The 7 of Swords (Aquarius) sits on top of The Hermit (Virgo). Next to it sits the 5 of Wands (Leo). This week will be about distant opportunities and overcoming challenges.
This week will be about distant opportunities and overcoming challenges.
We are headed into Virgo season! Yay!! Happy birthday! Unfortunately, this won’t be without some challenges in the first week. Perhaps even a stressful and intense for you, especially when it comes to others who aren’t doing so well under the eclipse. Like them, you will experience a triple Virgo phase this week.
The 7 of Swords states that you will be seeking better opportunities in the distance. You will see them and you will wait for an opportunity to strike, or you’ll be lost in thought and get stuck on the when. The 5 of Wands predicts that these opportunities won’t be handed to you easily. You’ll have to fight for what you want, but is that such a bad thing?
Rewards always taste better when you worked hard to earn it. Just remember that this week. Don’t get lost in thought or get anxiety with overthinking a situation. Whether you choose to fight or not, you ultimately decide the outcome. Be wise, you’ve got this.

Libra
Justice: This card is associated with Libra in tarot.
Here are your tarot cards for the week:
The 5 of Chalices (Scorpio) sits on top of Justice (Libra). Next to it sits the Knight of Swords (Taurus/Gemini). This week is about overcoming disappointments with your head held high.
This week is about overcoming disappointments with your head held high.
The eclipse will be working you mentally and emotionally this week. The 5 of Chalices (Scorpio) states that you’ll feel a little distant, rejected and even disappointed with a situation this week. Try not to let your emotions get the better of you.
The Knight of Swords has your back on this one and asks you to look at this from a more logical state of mind. Your sign is a natural and creative problem solver. Ride out with your head held high and lead your army forward. Which brings me to another thing: your army. Most Libras have a big group of friends and family, even admirers. If you don’t have a big army, I’m pretty sure you have a small one that you never even noticed.
With the new Virgo season and the triple Virgos this week, it’s best to show everyone how well you hold up under pressure. Don’t crack and be the true leader you are. Get er’ done.

Scorpio
Death: This card is associated with Scorpio in tarot.
Here are your tarot cards for the week:
The Queen of Swords (Virgo/Libra) sits on top of Death (Scorpio). Next to it sits The Lovers (Gemini). This week is about fairness and logic when it comes to relationships.
This week is about fairness and logic when it comes to relationships.
Oh, how love rises and falls with your sign. Life or death at times. The eclipse is reviving love for you, so if you’ve been having a hard time then it may suddenly come to a halt. The Queen of Swords is looking up and telling you to act in fairness and to think logically about relationships this week.
The Lovers card is predicting that relationships of all kinds will be created. Bonds will start to grow or energies will bring you closer with someone or others. Think about this hard though. The Lovers card is also associated with the zodiac sign Gemini. The Twins. There is a balance of good and evil here.
The Virgo season will have you hyper focused on the smaller details, especially in others. You may not want to overlook any red flags this week, but try not to get paranoid either. This is also where the Queen of Swords steps in and tells you to see things from a just perspective. Think higher, pace your thoughts and don’t be unfair to anybody – not even yourself.

Sagittarius
Temperance: This card is associated with Sagittarius in tarot.
Here are your tarot cards for the week:
The 3 of Chalices (Cancer) sits on top of Temperance (Sagittarius). Next to it sits the 6 of Pentacles (Taurus). This week is about creating emotional depth and meaningful actions.
This week is about creating emotional depth and meaningful actions.
The eclipse will heighten your need to create and grow, and you can’t do this without the help of others. The powerful energies of the universe are taking hold of your emotions. The 3 of Chalices pushes you to expand yourself from within. You will yearn to find more meaning in all that you do and grow a deeper passion in making something out of nothing.
The new Virgo season, with the triple Virgos, this week will have you thinking more in detail and will allow you to think of the impact you do unto others. The universe will be testing your generosity for others. How do you want to proceed? That will be up to you.
With so much water and earth this week, it may be challenging for you to overcome the intense vibes. However, there will be a jump in progression. Be ready and take charge of your internal growth.

Capricorn
The Devil: This card is associated with Capricorn in tarot.
Here are your tarot cards for the week:
The High Priestess (Moon) sits on top of The Devil (Capricorn). Next to it sits the 5 of Wands (Leo). This week will challenge your higher spirit and intuition.
This week will challenge your higher spirit and intuition.
You’ve got some really good cards. The eclipse will be good to your soul, but it is also ready to test your spirit and life progress. The High Priestess sits on top of your card. It predicts a powerful growth from within, one of spiritual and emotional meaning. You will relish under the new sun and find deeper meaning in all that you do. You yearn for the why.
The Virgo season will be kind to you, heightening your focus, discipline and perseverance. But this isn’t without difficulties, especially when it comes to others. You may very well get frustrated with the progress of others, so try not to judge them for their faults. They are not you.
Learn from the High Priestess, seek spiritual meaning, growth and acceptance of yourself and of others. You’ll find that it’s much easier to deal with people when you just allow them the same freedom you allow yourself.

Aquarius
The Stars: This card is associated with Aquarius in tarot.
Here are your tarot cards for the week:
The 8 of Chalices (Pisces) sits on top of The Star (Aquarius). Next to it sits the 10 of Swords (Gemini). This week is about letting go of any setbacks or falling face down in defeat.
This week is about letting go of any setbacks or falling face down in defeat.
Don’t panic, these cards aren’t as bad as they look. The eclipse will have a big impact on your life right now. The 8 of Chalices lets you know that you’re ready to let go of unnecessary baggage. You’re ready for growth. Notice how the little man is leaving the nest of comfort and prosperity. That is you.
Peace out authority. You want to claim your own independence. #ByeFelicia lol. However, beware of the 10 of Swords. It warns you that you will either be defeated or be victorious. The monster is either you or the challenges you will face. With the Virgo season headed your way, you may find yourself at a crossroads but don’t fear.
Your sign is a master of perspectives. Think logically and strategically before you get up and leave your comfort zone. Can you handle this new phase independently and without struggle, or do you still need help emotionally and mentally? That is something you’ll have to discover.

Pisces
The Moon: This card is associated with Pisces in tarot.
Here are your tarot cards for the week:
The Wheel (Jupiter) sits on top of The Moon (Pisces). Next to it sits the 2 of Chalices (Cancer). This week the tables will turn, especially when it comes to love and relationships.
This week the tables will turn, especially when it comes to love and relationships.
Expect a major shift of energy when it comes to love. The eclipse will turn the tables on you. This can be with friends, family, a lover, but also love for yourself. This can also be a good or bad thing for you. The Wheel (Jupiter) predicts a change of situation and usually for the better.
However, this is eclipse week and Virgo season is starting. So if you’ve had bad luck, you’ll find good luck. If you’ve had good luck, expect some bad luck. The Virgo season, plus triple Virgo, will be a good time to focus on yourself. It may get intense and the truth may be hard to face, however it can also be refreshing. The 2 of Chalices not only predicts relationships, but it also can mean confronting your inner self.
You may find that you’ll want old habits to just die off. Or any negative feelings you’ve had about yourself will die off. The choice is up to you.
