October Tarot Reading For The Zodiac Signs — It’s Time To Let Go
Art by Stephany Torres for Remezcla
You don’t need to be a total tarot reading expert to get advice straight from the universe. Remezcla’s got you covered. And who am I? I’m Sofía, an intuitive tarot reader, writer, and fellow astrology enthusiast, with four years of experience. Every month, I will shuffle my deck and ask “what do these signs need to know about the upcoming month?” I pick three cards for each Zodiac element, break down what each of them mean, and explain how they connect to you .
Every Zodiac sign has a corresponding element that groups them together: Gemini, Libra, and Aquarius are air signs; Aries, Leo, and Sagittarius are fire signs; Taurus, Virgo, and Capricorn are earth signs; and Cancer, Scorpio, and Pisces are water signs.
So, read the message that corresponds to your sun sign — the one that falls on your birthday. Or if you’re a super astrology fan, read the messages that correspond to your Big Three (sun, moon, and rising signs). For example, I’m an Aquarius sun, Aries moon, and Taurus rising. To find out your own Big Three, input your birth information here to create your birth chart.
Keep on reading to see what the cards have to say about the month ahead. Good luck!
Air Signs (Gemini, Libra, Aquarius)
Gemini, Libra, and Aquarius got Ace of Pentacles, Two of Cups, and Page of Swords. The Ace of Pentacles is a new financial or career opportunity, manifestation, and abundance. The Two of Cups is unified love, partnership, and mutual attraction. And finally, Page of Swords is new ideas, curiosity, thirst for knowledge, and new ways of communicating.
October is looking bright for you, air signs. There’s possibilities of a new job, new romance, and learning new things. While that last one could be related to going back to school or taking a class on something, it could also be that you’ll be learning new skills in this new job opportunity or learning new aspects about yourself in the romance sector. Or, if you’re lucky, all three. The universe really wants you to remain open to any and all possibilities. You have to believe and embody that everything is possible. Because it truly is for you, air signs.
Fire Signs (Aries, Leo, Sagittarius)
Aries, Leo, and Sagittarius got Queen of Wands, Three of Cups, and Knight of Pentacles reversed. The Queen of Wands is courage, confidence, independence, a social butterfly, and determination. Three of Cups represents celebration, friendship, creativity, and collaborations. And finally, Knight of Pentacles reversed is self-discipline, boredom, feeling ‘stuck’, and perfectionism.
Sometimes boredom is the secret ingredient you need, dear fire signs. What would happen if you let yourself do nothing for a day or two? I think you’d be shocked by how much you process and learn about yourself. October will have plenty of excitement though, don’t worry. It’s true, the party doesn’t start without you. There’ll be celebrations, reunions with old friends, and late nights, but don’t overspend your energy. It’s sacred, and not everyone deserves it. The universe wants you to stop and be responsible every once in a while — boredom is the road you take to get to your creativity, so don’t take any shortcuts.
Earth Signs (Taurus, Virgo, Capricorn)
Taurus, Virgo, and Capricorn got King of Swords, Eight of Swords, and Ten of Cups reversed. King of Swords represents mental clarity, intellectual power, authority, and truth. Eight of Swords is negative thoughts, self-imposed restriction, imprisonment, and victim mentality. And finally, Ten of Cups reversed is disconnection, misaligned values, and struggling relationships.
Earth signs, you’re thinking too much. Bajale mil, take it down a thousand notches. You’re stuck in a bit of a loop where you got an epiphany, you feel like you’re finally thinking clearly, and then, the doubt comes in, and you overthink yourself to paralysis. This isn’t just hurting you, either. It’s also affecting your relationships, friendships, and family. Sometimes, you just have to stop thinking about it. Let it go, and just do what you want — because doing that is better than nothing at all. Easier said than done, I know (especially for you). But aren’t you getting sick of this cycle too? Life doesn’t have to be so serious.
Water Signs (Cancer, Scorpio, Pisces)
Cancer, Scorpio, and Pisces got Eight of Cups, Six of Pentacles, and Death reversed. Eight of Cups is disappointment, abandonment, withdrawal, and escapism. Six of Pentacles represents giving, receiving, sharing wealth, generosity, and charity. And finally, Death reversed is resistance to change, personal transformation, and inner purging.
Your message for October, dear water signs, is similar to the one for earth signs. You have to let go, too. This is the month where you actually do it. This is where you walk away from the things (situations, people, jobs, behaviors) that aren’t serving you anymore. You’ve tried everything in your power to fix it. You’ve given it all you’ve got. Something has to give. It’s not sustainable anymore (and maybe it never was). Sometimes the best option is to walk away, and I have a feeling you already know that too. Allow yourself to get swept away. Stop fighting the current, just float and see where you wash up. It might just be better than where you were before.
