SCORPIO 

Dear Scorpio, your main cards for 2023 are The Lovers, The Hanged Man, and The World.

This year’s focus is on awareness and reconciliation with yourself. The Hanged Man suggests that over the past year, especially during the fall, you’ve probably been feeling like you were held up by some mysterious force that makes it hard for you to find your purpose in life. Perhaps it’s a relationship that turned sour, or a lack of projects to keep you busy but you’ve been feeling stuck or at least misguided, and during the last couple of months in 2022, you were determined to do something about it.

This may have led you to jump straight into a situation where you’ve been taken advantage of, as the Lovers suggest. You’re hesitant to let this go, and this year will be a lesson in learning to give up and wish others well. You’re possessive and in need of a security blanket but this will be a time to learn to recognise what you need. I cannot promise you that 2023 will be a good year, but you’re close to finding yourself again. So enjoy the journey as it is, not the version that you’ve fabricated in your head.

Keywords for the year: Awareness, Letting Go, Reconciliation, Impulse, and Tracking

Love & Relationships: Justice & The Chariot

Love is a choice in your hands. Both cards (and the only two cards that were willing to show up time and time again as I was reading for you) suggest that no matter what stage you are at, whether you’re starting a relationship, continuing one, ending one, or just looking for one, the choice is yours both consciously and subconsciously.

Justice highlights your indecision between what your heart wants and what your mind wants. In many ways, you’re hesitant to truly to commit to either one and the longer you leave the decision to dwindle, the more complicated this ‘caught between two’ situation will become.

So remember to think things through and consider all the objective pros and cons of each side, you cannot run away from this and hope that things will work out in the end. The Chariot is a sign that this is a situation that calls for determination and for your action.

However, the Chariot reminds you that if it feels like there are only two choices to choose from, choose neither. There will always be a third option.

Career & Work: The Letter, The Tower, The Garden, The Stork, and The Clouds

Your career takes several turns this year, starting with an announcement of a long project at the beginning of 2023 that will not only change your ideas of professional relationships but also turn your current dynamics with the people you work with upside down. The Letter will bear news of perhaps a promotion or an opportunity to start a new stage in your career.

The Garden suggests that your work this year will bring you to the spotlight of a wider community and in a way kickstart a new chapter. The Stork however reminds you to be nurturing and kinder in terms of how to handle your relationships — yet remember to still keep a distance. This year might place you in the position of being the bearer of bad news.

The Clouds remind you to be wary that you don’t succumb to self-doubt and deprecation. Believe in yourself and your work.
