Well, get ready, because the weekly tarot horoscope for March 17 – 23, 2025, is here to guide you through those pesky choices with a cosmic twist. This week’s general vibe is brought to you by the Two of Swords and the Two of Pentacles—like the universe’s way of handing you a fork and a knife for life’s buffet of options! Just remember, while Mercury is retrograde, there’s bound to be some hiccups along the way. So, if you’re feeling the urge to jump headfirst into financial commitments, take a beat, consult your inner compass, and maybe even binge a few Netflix shows to gain some clarity. After all, who needs peer pressure when you have the stars on your side? Dive in to see what the tarot has in store for your zodiac sign this week! LEARN MORE.
Each zodiac sign’s weekly tarot horoscope for March 17 – 23, 2025, is here. After shuffling the cards, the Two of Swords and Two of Pentacles are the two general cards for everyone, guiding this week’s reading and providing insight into how each zodiac sign can navigate the week’s astrological energy.
The Two of Swords urges making intentional decisions and taking well-thought-out action, especially when it comes to financial decisions as suggested by the Two of Pentacles. This is a major theme for the next few weeks as we contend with Mercury retrograde’s typical disruptions and Venus retrograde’s effects on our finances. Don’t let peer pressure hold sway over you. Allow your instincts to show you the right way because your path is unique to you. Seek out new experiences, knowledge, and areas of interest so you can become more well-rounded, even if it takes you a while to get the hang of things.
