Valentine's Tarotscopes + Poetry

Tarotscopes for Love by Neon Dreamer

Lover, let me love.

I am, without a doubt, a hopeless romantic. For as long as I can remember being a person I have been in a constant state of falling in love. I fall in love with music and words, I fall in love with trees and sunsets, I even occasionally fall in love with people.

I know Valentine’s Day is some corporate conspiracy designed to sell chocolates and diamonds, but I don’t care. I love to love and today I am indulging myself as an act of self-love. Your tarotscopes this week are all overflowing with mushy sentiments and I’m not embarrassed to say that I LOVED writing them.

I also enjoy writing the occasional love poem, so please enjoy this piece of my tender heart.

With love

Love Stained

(My) hidden love
you’ve eluded me, and
missing you I danced
alone until Light
became flesh exalted, and
(and) 
and I found nothing
but your shadow
stained on my body
and
I want nothing more, still
and still
the sweetness of you
(honey and the stinger) 
clings to lips
blushed and bruised by kisses
and bodies, lay
felled on barren beds, 
exhausted by the living (and
love’s reckoning)

see me, hidden
Love, and still
I’ll wait, and
love you deeply
for there is no other 
                                way.

Valentine’s Day - 2023

Read your sun, moon, and rising sign tarotscopes to get the full picture of your week ahead.

Aries

Card: The Magician

Aries, love is not a race you can win. If you find yourself getting obsessed with the idea of how to prove your love best, you may have lost the thread. Grand gestures are nice, but not necessary. Slow down. Take a breath. Feel into your heart and you’ll find love in the quiet gentleness. All you need to do is invite your beloved to this secret place and they will understand how you truly feel.

Taurus

Card: The Sun

You are no stranger to love, Taurus. You love to love. Being ruled by Venus, it’s just part of your nature and you feel it with your whole body and soul. So, it can be frustrating when your love is not received or reciprocated like you wish it would be. Sometimes, you may want to just give up on love altogether. But you have to stick with it, kiddo. A love like yours is too bright to go unseen for much longer

Gemini

Card: Queen of Wands

You are hot and you know it, Gemini. You have a fire and charisma that cannot be ignored. But does that mean you should just give it away? Absolutely not. It’s taken a long time for you to learn your worth and this Valentines I encourage you to practice self appreciation. Treat yourself like the queen you are and allow yourself to indulge in all your decadent desires.

Cancer

Card: Queen of Cups

Let your feelings overflow, Cancer. It’s not like you can stop them anyways. Valentine’s is the one day in the year you don’t need to hide your big mushy heart from the world. Don’t be afraid to tell all your lovers and friends exactly how you feel. They need to hear it as much as you need to say it. Be the romantic beauty that you are and show the world how to love.

Leo

Card: Page of Swords

When you fall in love, Leo, something strange happens to you. All of your bravado seems to evaporate when facing your crush, and yo u are left weak in the knees. It can be a little scary to feel like that, but don’t be intimidated. Instead, let your beloved inspire you to learn something new. Let this love help you to grow and teach you how to become a better person.

Virgo

Card: Page of Wands

You can’t control love, Virgo. I know this is a frustrating (or terrifying) concept for you, but there is nothing you can do about it. Why would you want to, anyway? These out of control feelings are the butterflies in your stomach, the flush in your cheeks, the sweat on your palms, and all the ache and desire in your body. You hate it? No, you don’t… Because this is actually what love feels like. Please, try to enjoy it.

Libra

Card: Four of Wands

Valentine’s Day marketing would like us to believe that romantic love is what we ought to be focusing on today, but our friendships, family, and community deserve to be celebrated, too! Lovers may come and go, but these lasting relationships are what sustain us over the years. So, reach out to all your loved ones and let them know how much they mean to you.

Scorpio

Card: The Star

Being vulnerable is not something you do very often, Scorpio. Usually, trust has to be earned before you’re willing to let down your guard. However, love makes us do crazy things (like sharing your secrets without signing an NDA first). But how can you trust someone to love you if you never show them who you actually are? Don’t be afraid to open up. Trust me, love is worth the risk.

Sagittarius

Card: Wheel of Fortune

It’s time to take your heart out into the world, Sagittarius. You talk a big talk about your Love and Passion, but what have you been doing about it? I’m not referring to simply your romantic feelings. What are you doing about your Art and your Big Projects? Your darlings need to see some action if they are ever going to thrive. So, grab the wheel and take your passion for a ride.

Capricorn

Card: The Devil

You think you know what love is, Capricorn, but do you really? Is love the actions or the feelings of a person? Is love an emotion or a commitment? Is love duty or devotion? Here is a tougher question for you - what does it feel like to receive love? I’ll let you think about that for a minute. Chances are, you’re receiving more love than you realize. Here’s a tip: the less you define love the more love you will be able to feel.

Aquarius

Card: Seven of Coins

You are in it for the long haul, Aquarius. When you fall in love it’s usually forever. It doesn’t matter whether it’s a person, an idea, or an organization, you take “Ride or Die” quite literally. It requires a lot of strength and courage to ride out the ups and downs of long term love. But it’s worth it to know that you are cultivating a love that is real and can stand the test of time.

Pisces

Card: Six of Swords

It’s so easy for you to fall in love, Pisces, and it’s just as easy to fall out of love, too. You may find yourself carrying a load of all these past heartbreaks, but letting go of lost love can be easier said than done. Eventually, we have to release the burden or else we may drown under the weight of it all. But how? First, learn to forgive yourself and then the rest will be easy.
