The week from April 27 to May 3 is packed with cosmic activity, including Uranus moving into Gemini, a Full Moon in Scorpio, the start of a new calendar month, and Mercury entering Taurus. This energetic mix is likely to stir emotions, uncover long-buried truths, and create interesting chaos in relationships and self-perception. Be gentle and patient with yourself and others. Keep an open mind and heart to new ideas, but pause before reacting. Let things settle before analyzing too closely. The tarot cards are here to guide you through the chaos toward clarity.
