Weekly tarot horoscope reading for March 9 to March 15, 2026
Jupiter has been in retrograde since November 2025 and turns back direct this week.
During this time, you may have been returning to your roots in some respect, thinking about the past and its impact on the present, generational patterns and traits, bonds you want to strengthen… or indeed loosen.
Now the retrograde is over, you emerge with a clear sense of what matters to you about your family, ancestors, past and background. It’s time this week to make your mark here, to set out as you mean to go on.
What shift will you be executing? Let’s ask the tarot cards…
Aries
March 21 to April 20
Tarot card for Aries for this week: Nine of Swords
Meaning: You’ve realised you have carried unspoken dread, insecurity or fear that comes from events or establishing beliefs experienced in childhood. And you’re ready to address that, to voice it, to say out loud how you think you’ve absorbed these fears from what was once the case long ago.
The power of saying things out loud cannot be overestimated. Find a confidant or friend (or even your mirror) and speak about this. Put down this weight. Release it.

Taurus
April 21 to May 21
Tarot card for Taurus for this week: Three of Coins
Meaning: You now understand just how loved you were (and are) and that things you resisted or felt were hard were all done from love. This kind of understanding often deepens when we have our own children or just hear other folks’ stories and see the differences.
Folk may have made mistakes, but it doesn’t diminish the love they had towards you, and that is precious, worth holding on to, and perhaps revisiting and celebrating now. Share love with those from your past. They did their best.

Gemini
May 22 to June 21
Tarot card for Gemini for this week: The Emperor
Meaning: You’re noticing how you were ‘shaped’ by a dominant figure in your childhood (likely a parent, likely a father or fatherly figure, but not necessarily).
Their discipline, approval, strictness and rules were boundary-creating and kept you within range of the ‘straight and narrow’ but maybe also tempered something in you that is naturally wilder, louder, bigger… and maybe now, as an adult, you can give that side of your nature permission to come out and play! Be wholly and fully you. Rebel.

Cancer
June 22 to July 23
Tarot card for Cancer for this week: The Magician
Meaning: You’ve looked back at ‘little you’ and seen yourself clearly, especially your natural, innate talents and skills and interests. You’re realising you were born hardwired with certain powers and they’re the ones you should lean on in this life.
You may have circled other careers and experiences, but you’re ready to return to the ‘little you’ talents and interests you’ve always known were there. These form the blueprint of your potential for success. Work with it, enhance it, build on it. This is a new beginning.

Leo
July 24 to August 23
Tarot card for Leo for this week: Knight of Cups
Meaning: You are recognising your love language and defaults in relationships as being a product of the examples and environment from your childhood, what you saw growing up, what was presented as normal. We all have this blessing or curse!
The truth is that we can see the signs, recognise the patterns, and if they’re leading us down blind alleys, we can challenge it, we can change it. Do you want to? This is your love project homework this week.

Virgo
August 24 to September 23
Tarot card for Virgo for this week: The Devil
Meaning: You are noticing repeat patterns, habits, self-limiting beliefs or behaviours that you, honestly, think have started and carried on in your life since childhood. They are so ingrained you never really noticed yourself doing it. But you do now. It’s one of those ‘can’t unsee it’ moments.
Break the chains, run wild and free from your old selfhood, smash through limiting ideas and opinions and challenge your thinking, prove yourself wrong. Change is afoot and it will liberate you.

Libra
September 24 to October 23
Tarot card for Libra for this week: Two of Swords
Meaning: You’ve come to realise that choices you made in your past do not define or confine you. It’s the truth that they shaped your past experience but they don’t have to dictate your future path.
You can simply make new choices. Reunite, forgive, turn away, turn back, say yes, say no, revisit, return, move on. Whatever it is you regret, just make a new choice and put the wheels in motion this week.

Scorpio
October 24 to November 22
Tarot card for Scorpio for this week: Death
Meaning: This card is your sign’s actual talisman in the tarot deck, so this is a powerful pivot week, a transformation and transition lies ahead. Between now and your birthday, you are leaving the old, dead and false elements in your realm behind. Shedding and purging. And, along the way, you’re picking up new people, ideas, options and opportunities.
This links to childhood because you’re returning to your authentic nature and talents, your true selfhood, your original character before ‘adulting’ kicked in. This feels liberating, powerful and compelling. This is a major year for you.

Sagittarius
November 23 to December 21
Tarot card for Sagittarius for this week: The Moon
Meaning: You’ve discovered there are secrets and illusions in your past that you could now, with technology and everything being as it is, uncover and resolve. Are you up for a mystery? Are you up for playing detective?
Whether this is ancestry and lineage research, replaying an old event, getting the truth of a situation you were lied to about, you know, deep down, things are not all as they seem or were presented to you before. But now you can crack the code and get the truth. Make it a mission this week.

Capricorn
December 22 to January 21
Tarot card for Capricorn for this week: Seven of Wands
Meaning: You’ve come to recognise a pattern of rivalry or competition in your past that has perhaps made you who you are today. Perhaps a friend or cousin who you competed with, perhaps sibling rivalry, perhaps trying to impress a parent or teacher.
Whatever it was, it ignited a competitive streak in you that has long lasted and served. But maybe you need to learn to conserve this streak for when it best serves, and put it away when it does not. Perhaps that is the lesson of this retrograde.

Aquarius
January 22 to February 19
Tarot card for Aquarius for this week: Ace of Coins
Meaning: You’ve worked through your roots and influences, from childhood, regarding life’s foundations – health, wealth, work, home. You know where you’ve picked up good values and habits, and where you want to branch out and do it differently, and this self awareness feels positive and empowering.
There’s no blame or pity or regret; it’s all about seeing patterns, working with them, and using your experience to make good sound choices now. You are building something new. A new year-long project in one of your foundation areas is beginning.

Pisces
February 20 to March 20
Tarot card for Pisces for this week: Ten of Coins
Meaning: You’ve seen your life story in its entirety so far, extracted key lessons and wisdoms, cemented magical memories, celebrated the highs and shown compassion for the lows and feel, in the end, a tremendous sense of gratitude and excitement that there’s still so much more to write, do and create.
This story is far from finished, and you know the best is yet to come. You feel excited and optimistic this week and ready to start designing your best-ever era in life. This is a true starting point.
