January Tarot Reading For The Zodiac Signs — New Opportunities To Step Into Your Power
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 The Moon, Ten of Pentacles, and Knight of Pentacles. The Moon is illusion, fear, anxiety, subconscious, and intuition. Ten of Pentacles is a wealth, financial security, family, and long-term success. And finally, Knight of Pentacles is hard work, productivity, and routine.
Everything’s gonna work out for you, air signs. This January, expect the unexpected. It might go completely against what your logical mind tells you to do or believe, but do it anyway. In fact, there’s no need to do much of anything. Just say yes, and believe it’ll work out. The offers are coming towards you. You won’t know the how, when, or why—but just know, you deserve it.
Fire Signs (Aries, Leo, Sagittarius)
Aries, Leo, and Sagittarius got Six of Wands, Six of Swords, and Temperance. Six of Wands is success, public recognition, progress, and self-confidence. Six of Swords represents transition, change, rite of passage, and releasing baggage. And finally, Temperance is balance, moderation, patience, and purpose.
January is the start of a transition period for you, dear fire signs. A path that also comes with plenty of recognition and public success. Let it in, but don’t get lost in it. A balance between your ego and your humility is required. Don’t make yourself small, but don’t make yourself too big either. Let go of what no longer serves you—especially those pesky self-limiting thoughts. Let others celebrate you, just like you celebrate others. You don’t have to be at the finish line to feel success.
Earth Signs (Taurus, Virgo, Capricorn)
Taurus, Virgo, and Capricorn got Two of Cups, The Lovers, and Knight of Swords. Two of Cups represents unified love, partnership, and mutual attraction. The Lovers is love, harmony, relationships, values alignment, and choices. And finally, Knight of Swords is ambitious, action-oriented, driven to succeed, and fast-thinking.
January will be all about love for you, dear Earth signs. Romantic love might be the focus, but it could also be friendship, family, and the self. Maybe all of the above if you’re lucky. For some of you, there will be a person in your life that is ambitious, smart, and incredibly driven. For others in this collective, you need to channel this energy for yourself. Ask yourself: What areas of your life do you need to act more strategically in? Do the first thing your intuition tells you.
Water Signs (Cancer, Scorpio, Pisces)
Cancer, Scorpio, and Pisces got Queen of Wands, Knight of Pentacles, and The Star reversed. Queen of Wands is courage, confidence, independence, social butterfly, and determination. Knight of Pentacles represents hard work, productivity, and routine. And finally, The Star reversed is a lack of faith, despair, self-trust, and disconnection.
Dear water signs, the universe wants you to trust yourself more. During this month, there will be moments where the universe will test you. It wants to see if you have the self-confidence, the self-belief, and the trust to accomplish your desires—especially when it comes to career and finances. Be the host. Be the queen. Don’t fall back. The universe isn’t doing this to punish you, it’s the opposite. It knows you have the potential. It’s your time to shine. Step forward.
