Even when you try to swear off dating apps, they have a way of pulling you back in, especially as the weather warms up. Spring always feels like the perfect time to fall in love, but getting back out there also means dealing with drama again.
As he looks ahead to the week ahead, astrologer and spiritual counselor Wang Letao pulls out three tarot cards to help you resolve some romance-related questions — and he also shares some helpful tips for finding love ahead of the summer.
Card 1: What do I need to know about dating or my relationship this week?
The World Tarot is the 21st and final card in the Major Arcana, which represents a pleasant sense of completion and accomplishment. Like the full moon, you can think of it as the end of a cycle, encouraging you to relax and revel in all your hard work.
"In your love life, it means achieving a sense of wholeness and contentment," Wang said. If you're in a relationship, you may find that you're entering a new phase where you both feel valued, understood, and very secure.
If you're going through this after a tough breakup, this card could be a sign that you're officially healed and ready to move on. "This world is a positive harbinger that you are moving forward from old cycles, enriched by deep learning and reflection, into a realm ready for new romance to begin," he says.
At the same time, if you plan to stay single for a while, the World Card will remind you that you are whole. "It encourages you to revel in your independence, not because of a lack of options, but because you are fully yourself and have the ability to enjoy life on your own," he says.
Card 2: How can I attract more love this week?
At first glance, the Hermit seems like the worst card to have when you're hoping to attract love or make new friends. After all, it's pretty hard to find love when you're lying at home. But according to Wang, this card is about introspection and understanding yourself, which is a good thing for romance.
If you're great at love, it could be a sign that you're looking for love in the wrong places. To figure out what's wrong with you, Wang recommends spending this week cultivating inner peace and self-love. “It’s only in quiet moments of reflection that you discover what you truly desire from a relationship.”
Consider jotting down the qualities you want to find in a partner, or fill in a list of words in your notes app to describe the feelings you want to feel in a relationship. "This self-awareness will be a magnet for real connections," Wang said, and it may also make it easier for Summer to find love.
Card 3: How does my date or significant other feel about me this week?
If you're wondering if your Hinge opponent still likes you, go ahead and breathe a deep sigh of relief, because this card is a very good sign. "The Queen of Wands says a lot about how they view you," Wang said. "This card is full of boldness, [confidence] and charm, so it shows that their feelings are warm, vibrant and growing in intensity."
If you've been drinking lately, chances are they've secretly fallen in love with your energy, independence, and sense of humor. Under the influence of this card, Wang recommends scheduling a second date as soon as possible, especially one that highlights these glowing qualities so you can continue to fan the flames. Think hiking, biking, comedy nights, or any other active and fun activity.
As a bonus, the Queen of Wands also represents passion in the bedroom, Wang said. If you've been hoping to connect, now might be the perfect time.
