WHAT’S HAPPENING THIS YEAR? : pick a card.
↳ Hi, here’s an overview of the year you’re asking about. This is a timeless reading, so it isn’t limited to 2026 alone. While I’m still sharing the month-by-month readings, this offers a broader perspective in the meantime and something to reflect on without having to wait for the rest to be released. Thank you for being here, and take care! ♡ᯓ˖
HOW TO CHOOSE A PILE : The outcome may vary based on whether you receive clear messages visually or intuitively. If you resonate more with selecting a pile visually, trust that inclination. Personally, I believe the notion that 'looks can deceive,' so I prefer to take a deep breath and close my eyes, allowing the pile I'm meant to connect with to come to me. You might see the color of the pile, sense or hear a number, or simply feel its overall vibe.

WHAT ENERGY ARE YOU EMBODYING? Knight of Wands. Five of Cups (Reversed). Warrior : Strength, skill, discipline, and toughness of will. Heroism, stoicism, and self-sacrifice in conquering the ego. The Seahorse : Sacrifice, Caretaking, Rigidity.
This year, you’re stepping into a bold, driven version of yourself. There’s confidence in your movement now, with less hesitation and more action. You’ve already processed past disappointments and reached a place of acceptance, allowing you to move forward with purpose rather than regret. Strength, discipline, and determination define your approach, and you’re far more resilient than you may realize.
That said, there’s a tendency to hold yourself too tightly together. You may take on responsibility not only for your own path but also for the well-being of others around you, or you may be putting a great deal of effort into taking care of yourself. While this comes from loyalty and care, it’s important to watch for rigidity or impulsive decisions that stem from feeling like everything rests on your shoulders. Balance courage with flexibility.
WHAT'S HAPPENING OVERALL? Three of Swords. Page of Cups (Reversed). Discovery : Mercury in Sagittarius. Finger : Warning you of a problem either now or in the new future. Angel : Spiritual guidance. Protection from harm. Miracle.
At the core of this year is emotional healing. There is a sense of heartbreak, loss, or unresolved sadness that can no longer be ignored. Avoidance or emotional numbing won’t work the way it once did, and life is gently but firmly pushing you to grow through it rather than around it.
Expansion and self-discovery become part of the healing process. Through learning, travel, new perspectives, and deeper philosophical or spiritual exploration, you begin to understand yourself differently. Reflection, conversations, ideas, and exposure to new ways of thinking play a powerful role in helping you process what you’ve been through.
You are not unprotected, even during moments when things feel heavy or uncertain. This year carries an important lesson: you cannot shut out pain without also shutting out joy. By allowing yourself to feel fully, you rediscover pleasure, meaning, and emotional clarity, not just for yourself, but in the way you show up for others as well.
SOMETHING IMPORTANT TO REMEMBER. Ring. Book. Dog.
A meaningful commitment to growth and knowledge stands out this year. You are dedicating yourself to learning, whether through healing work and self-study or through a more formal path, such as signing a contract to return to school. Education becomes a tool for grounding and forward movement, helping you deepen both your understanding and your sense of purpose.
Friendship plays an essential role in this process. A loyal, supportive, and educated friend either guides you, opens a door, or walks alongside you as you learn. This person may already be in your life or may appear during the year, but the connection is built on trust, shared understanding, and mutual respect. Through learning and companionship, you strengthen your emotional stability and gain clearer direction.

WHAT ENERGY ARE YOU EMBODYING? Wheel of Fortune (Reversed). Seven of Swords. Samaritan : Refines your capacity to help those you would prefer to ignore. Zebra : Uniqueness, Expression, Resistance.
This year begins with a heavy sense of resistance. There’s a feeling that circumstances are slipping out of your control, and instead of moving through that discomfort, you may be trying to outmaneuver it by strategizing, overthinking, or quietly resisting what’s unfolding. This does not come from malice, but from fear. Fear of being powerless, fear of being seen, or fear of becoming someone you do not recognize.
You may be placing yourself in cycles where you feel stuck, convincing yourself that if you are clever or careful enough, you can manage every variable. In reality, this only delays progress. Some things simply are not yours to control, especially other people’s actions. There is also a chance you are trying to prove something by becoming someone you are not, sacrificing authenticity to maintain a sense of safety or superiority. Your growth this year asks you to honor your uniqueness without using resistance as armor.
WHAT'S HAPPENING OVERALL? Eight of Swords (Reversed). Six of Cups. Convention : Venus in Capricorn. Lust : Venus in Aries. Boot : Increase your efforts if you want to achieve your goals. Wreath : Sorrow over a loss. Wisdom.
The core lesson of this year is surrender and the freedom that comes with it. The main event is learning to let go of the control you feel you need and to rely more on the present moment and what is tangible. This means releasing unrealistic expectations and rigid time limits placed on yourself or others. Letting go allows you to reclaim your personal power. This is not about giving up, but about choosing where your effort truly belongs.
Relationships play an important role in this process. There may be a romantic connection that brings these lessons to the surface, one that challenges your ideas of control, desire, and permanence. This bond may be intense but temporary, serving more as a catalyst than a lasting presence. It is possible you let go of someone you are currently with, or you come to realize that you cannot fix others or control every situation, no matter how strong the urge. Something is lost, and with that loss may come grief, but it also creates space for clarity, maturity, and growth.
You are encouraged to persevere and to put your energy into what you truly want and what is within your control. Do not lose hope simply because these realizations are difficult. Support and guidance appear through a mature or older figure, either as a person in your life or as wisdom earned through lived experience. Through surrender, you face your fears and find empowerment in the process.
There is a sense of nostalgia here, but it does not trap you. Instead, it becomes a source of comfort and healing. You are able to observe and feel your emotions without losing yourself in them, moving forward without staying stuck in the past. This year ultimately reminds you that healing is not meant to be done alone.
SOMETHING IMPORTANT TO REMEMBER. Child. Sun. Clouds.
Your relationship with joy comes into focus. Confusion around happiness begins to lift, even if pessimism has been lingering and hope has felt distant. Despite these doubts, clarity returns, and success arrives even if you struggle to believe in it at first. Forward movement happens, and it carries you.
Much of this connects back to childhood. Early experiences may have contributed to past issues around control and attachment, and revisiting them with compassion helps you understand yourself more clearly. You are encouraged to reconnect with your inner child by reflecting on the coping mechanisms and behaviors you relied on when you were younger. There is value in how you survived then, and insight can be gained by considering how you would handle those same situations now. Through these memories and patterns, you learn, adapt, and grow.
You may recognize that you once felt stuck in a more childish energy. Now, having grown into a more mature and self-aware version of yourself, you are able to look back without judgment. This year invites you to soften, to be curious, and to allow yourself moments of childlike ease without losing the wisdom you have earned. Joy does not need to be won through struggle. It can be rediscovered through presence, honesty, and gentle self-trust.

WHAT ENERGY ARE YOU EMBODYING? The Sun (Reversed). Three of Wands. Messiah : Serving humanity with humility. The Hare : Spontaneity, Anxiety, Fear.
There is a mix of forward motion and inner weight surrounding you this year. Anxiety and fear are present, and you may be experiencing a sense of heaviness or low energy. There is a lot of unrealistic expectation or fantasy, and pessimism may creep in when reality does not match your vision. Despite these feelings, there is little time to slow down.
Much of your energy is devoted to others. You may be serving, guiding, or leading people in ways that require humility and self-sacrifice. You are somewhat forced to look ahead and grow, even when you do not feel fully ready. This sense of purpose gives direction, but it can also make it easy to overlook your own emotional needs. Spontaneity wants to surface, yet fear and anxiety often interrupt it.
WHAT'S HAPPENING OVERALL? Three of Cups (Reversed). Ten of Wands. Submission : Venus in Pisces. Dagger : Fear, worries, tense situations. Haystack : Karma—you will reap what you have sown. Grief.
This year carries the feeling of emotional and social strain. Again, you have a burden or responsibility that may already be part of your life. It is burning you out, and you may feel like you can barely keep up with all the obligations. This could relate to your career, social life, or personal life in general. You may be turning only to yourself while neglecting your own needs, and it is difficult to take care of everything alone.
There is a strong tendency to retreat inward while still carrying heavy obligations, creating the illusion that you can manage everything by yourself. Social shyness or purposely leaving yourself out can deepen isolation. Be mindful of your surroundings and the people you confide in, as not every environment is supportive of your well-being.
Grief and emotional heaviness play an important role this year, not necessarily in a dramatic sense, but as something that requires acknowledgment and time. Healing requires allowing yourself to feel sadness without fear. Avoiding connection altogether or failing to take action toward loving others only keeps the cycle repeating. Honoring your pain opens the door to love again, even if it does not arrive immediately. What you invest emotionally this year matters deeply, and what you ignore will ask to be seen again later.
SOMETHING IMPORTANT TO REMEMBER. Woman. Clover. Key.
A key source of light appears through feminine energy. If you are a woman, this is specifically about you. You are a charming, magnetic, and captivating person, and you are given the opportunity to finally experience a stroke of luck and find happiness in your life and within yourself through this.
If you are not a woman, or simply do not resonate with what was said, take this message as well. It points to a woman in your life who acts as a guide, support system, or catalyst for change. This could be a friend, mother, or lover; the nature of the relationship matters less than the role she plays. She helps you recognize your worth and shows you an easier, more joyful way forward. You might even view her as your own little lucky charm in an affectionate way.
This year does not ask you to carry everything forever. It asks you to notice where relief, kindness, and opportunity already exist and to allow yourself to take them.

WHAT ENERGY ARE YOU EMBODYING? Page of Swords (Reversed). The Lovers (Reversed). Avenger : Desire to balance the scales of justice. Righteousness on behalf of society or oneself. The Bee : Community, Work, Harmony.
Right now, your energy feels guarded and closed off. This energy is blocked from others, and you may not be allowing yourself to fully receive other people’s presence or emotional input. There can be moments of cynicism or feeling mentally scattered, and at the very least, there is an imbalance between you, others, and the choices you are making. High standards and strong opinions are present, but they may be working against you rather than serving you.
There is a strong sense of justice here. You care deeply about fairness and are willing to defend yourself and others when something feels off. At times, this can come across as being overly selective or setting expectations that are difficult for others to meet. You may be showing up consistently when it comes to work, duty, or responsibility, yet holding back emotionally in your relationships. This lack of emotional openness creates distance and can block connection, whether with someone already in your life or a potential interest trying to come in.
Despite this, you are needed within your work and community. Your presence, skills, and voice matter, but they cannot fully land if you remain closed off. You may be doing the work on the surface while withholding the emotional exchange that allows relationships and collaboration to grow. Love and partnership feel stalled not because they are unavailable, but because your current situation and guardedness are keeping them at a distance.
WHAT'S HAPPENING OVERALL? Three of Cups. Six of Cups (Reversed). Enthusiasm : Sun in Sagittarius. Flirtation : Venus in Sagittarius. Seahorse : Family matters. Carriage : A journey, either physical or mental. Dark man : Dealings or relationship with a man with dark complexion or hair. Discovery.
This year brings a shift toward reconnection, socially, emotionally, and geographically. Community, friendship, and shared experiences become important again, paired with a strong need to release the past. Independence grows as you stop defining yourself by old roles, old environments, or outdated emotional patterns.
There is something here about leaving the place you are currently in. For many people, this points to a literal move, not just to a nearby city, but to a completely different area, state, country, or province. This change of environment helps you come back into yourself and reconnect with others. As you focus more fully on your own independence and well-being, you realize that your challenges were never truly about other people, but about internal or mental disruption. With that clarity, you find peace within yourself and become more open again.
For others, this move or shift is tied to a romantic situation. You may be moving toward someone or relocating with them, carrying the feeling of escaping a restrictive or toxic family dynamic in order to build something happier and more authentic. This romantic figure may present as a man with darker features, or he may simply represent an important male presence in your life, such as a partner, friend, or family member who plays a significant role during this transition. You will likely know which version of this story applies to you.
Whether physical or emotional, a journey stands out strongly. It is a period of discovery on both a mental and physical level. You are questioning whether your current situation truly makes you happy and whether it supports you long-term. This process will not be easy, but it is necessary for your growth.
If you do not see yourself changing where you live, you are still creating distance from people or environments that doubt or drain you. Family does not have to be defined solely by blood. This year encourages you to choose connection, belonging, and support on your own terms, and to build a life that reflects who you are becoming rather than who you once had to be.
Another thing I wanted to mention: a very similar energy and storyline came up in the last reading on my account. There’s no pressure to check it out, but it might help clarify a few things if you’d like. CLICK HERE, PILE FOUR!
SOMETHING IMPORTANT TO REMEMBER. Ship. House. Man.
Movement around home and belonging is unavoidable. Again, this points to moving away from tradition and leaving home. Long-distance travel is strongly indicated, suggesting a significant shift rather than a small or temporary change. A man plays an important role in this transition, whether as a partner, family member, or key support figure who helps initiate or solidify this move.
For most, this feels less like being pushed away and more like moving toward something meaningful. There is a strong sense of going to be with someone, rather than simply leaving something behind. This man appears as a central figure in the story, often representing the destination itself or the reason the journey becomes possible. His presence brings direction and purpose to the change.
This story is about choosing a new direction even when it disrupts expectations. You are not running away; you are moving toward something that aligns with who you are now. The outcome is not chaos, but clarity, freedom, and a life that feels more honestly your own.
