The biggest moment of 2025 for each star sign — your tarot horoscope

As the New Year begins, a world of possibilities open up, prompting us to think about how we want 2025 to play out.

January feels like a big moment of change, but don’t forget, there are 12 whole months in which your life could turn around — it’s not over until the fireworks start popping next December, right?

While it’s important to take control in shaping your own destiny, some things are simply written in the stars.

So if you’re wondering what to look out for, let the tarot enlighten you to the most significant time of the year for your star sign.

Aries

March 21 to April 20

Tarot card for Aries for 2025: The Wheel of Fortune

Meaning: This powerful card representing total change and transformation (so that is the energy it sweeps into your realm) is linked to the four Fixed star signs – Taurus, Leo, Scorpio and Aquarius. What that means is that February, May, August, and November are all set to be major life-changing periods in 2025.

Don’t fear change, embrace it. If there are big things you’re wanting to stop, start, or alter next year then try and match them to these months for a boost of accelerant and positivity!

Taurus

April 21 to May 21

Tarot card for Taurus for 2025: Justice

Meaning: Justice reveals that late September up to mid October will be your life-changing phase in 2025. What will it bring to you? Total vindication. Justice is a powerful leveller, a righting of wrongs, proof that you were right and in the right.

So if something has upset or shaken you, been unfair or unjust, then you can expect that to be corrected come autumn. Be magnanimous in victory, don’t gloat, hold your head high but let Karma take care of the wrongdoers.

Gemini

May 22 to June 21

Tarot card for Gemini for 2025: Nine of Swords

Meaning: Geminis are secretly pretty anxious folk. You have an abundance of nervous energy, an active imagination, a nose for trouble… and put together, it makes you a worrier. Your time for release and unburdening of your fears in 2025 will come repeatedly (so you can keep releasing the pressure valve) in February, June, and October.

Keep talking, keep asking for help, keep sharing your anxieties. They’re better out and examined in the cold light of day. Most of them will just evaporate, but what remains can be dealt with.

Cancer

June 22 to July 23

Tarot card for Cancer for 2025: Two of Cups

Meaning: 2025 is a powerful love year for you, Cancer. And the months March to July are the most potent times for romance, attraction, passion, and commitment. Spring and summer will bring you genuine soulmate chemistry and you will fall (deeper) in love.

Your love life is your prize possession. You yearn to be understood, valued, and desired. And you deserve to be. You are an amazing partner. Don’t ‘settle’ for what you know isn’t really you, or doesn’t feel good. Don’t let people treat you poorly. Move on, because the best is yet to come!

Leo

July 24 to August 23

Tarot card for Leo for 2025: The Moon

Meaning: Your most powerful time of 2025 will be late June through July (with lingering ripples occurring the rest of summer). The Moon shows the essence of this pivotal time is the revelation of a secret.

We are all wrapped up in spider webs, some spun before we were even born. We are all not only main characters in our own story, but villains/love interests/supporting actors/observers in other people’s story. And we can get caught up in stuff we have no knowledge of or influence over. One such thing will be revealed and it will change how you approach something in future.

Virgo

August 24 to September 23

Tarot card for Virgo for 2025: Queen of Wands

Meaning: There’s an adventurous spirit driving you through 2025 and it surfaces most powerfully in April, August and December. Travel is a major factor here, so these are great months for holidays or just exploring and seeing more of the world. Education too, so maybe you want to train up in a skill or learn about something you’re interested in.

Let passion lead you, let your heart tell you where it wants to go and what it wants to experience, and work to serve that need. This is your authentic self speaking!

Libra

September 24 to October 23

Tarot card for Libra for 2025: Death

Meaning: Death brings a necessary, natural, and pivotal ending to your realm in 2025, which will manifest by late October to mid November. Don’t fear this or resist this because what is leaving your life is clearing way for new, fresh, positive energy to enter and take you forwards to the next level.

Ebb and flow. Every ending is the embryo of a new beginning. It might be a very slow fade, so you’ll see it coming a mile off. And then you can prepare. Remember – keep looking ahead, keep focused on your new beginning.

Scorpio

October 24 to November 22

Tarot card for Scorpio for 2025: The High Priestess

Meaning: The moon is a powerful guiding and illuminating force in your world in 2025. So make a note of the dates of each Full Moon (time for closure, completion, reflections) and New Moon (time for activation, new beginnings, creation). This will divide your life into two-week chunks, focused alternatively on activation and then completion.

You will find this rhythm highly rewarding and The High Priestess promises that the flow will help your sub conscious time its gifts to you appropriately, you will feel more in touch with your psyche, feelings, and ideas than ever before!

Sagittarius

November 23 to December 21

Tarot card for Sagittarius for 2025: Page of Swords

Meaning: Decision-making is not one of your strongest suits as you prefer to live life free-flowing, spontaneously, and without boundaries. However, 2025 will require some commitments from you, notably in February, June and October.

When they arise, act swiftly and proactively. Don’t wait for fate to take charge (because she won’t serve you well). You will be tempted to hedge your bets, put it off, or play both sides… don’t do this. Make a firm commitment one way or the other, and you will be rewarded. Remember this!

Capricorn

December 22 to January 21

Tarot card for Capricorn for 2025: The Lovers

Meaning: Gemini season (late May to mid June) brings you great activity in your love life. If you’re single then you might meet an attractive Gemini who sweeps you off your feet. If you’re attached then you may be tempted by something outside of your relationship and this test might prove to be either the pivot point or the catalyst for deeper commitment.

Sometimes we need to have a pressure test to really understand the depth of our feelings. During this phase, stay focused on what you truly feel and want. Don’t get distracted or lured into false promises. Be true. Be honest. Do what feels right.

Aquarius

January 22 to February 19

Tarot card for Aquarius for 2025: The Devil

Meaning: Your year starts really powerfully! The Devil represents Capricorn so the first few weeks of January are like a foundation-setter for the rest of 2025. Lay the right stones, build a firm base, set out in the right manner, activate good habits. Be the person you want to become right now!

What’s stopping you? What are you waiting for? You are free to be whomever you wish, so be that person and get to it immediately. This liberating change will set you up for an amazing year ahead.

Pisces

February 20 to March 20

Tarot card for Pisces for 2025: The Magician

Meaning: Entrepreneurial and creative energy flows through you powerfully in June and September so these are both great months for pitches, launches, education, proposals, artistic courses or classes, and setting up your own side line or business.

The Magician sees you stepping into your own power in 2025, realising the value of your talent and skill and seeking to use it to further yourself. You can make a living doing what you love, if you do it well, and you do! Take yourself seriously this year and start to bring your talents to the forefront. You can manifest a new career!
