Tarot cards have always had a lot of crossover with astrology.
For instance, the four tarot suits represent each of the astrological elements (Coins – Earth, Wands – Fire, Swords – Air and Cups – Water) and most of the major arcana power cards correspond to certain planets, and therefore certain star signs.
Having a tarot card representing your star sign provides you with an automatic cheerleader in the tarot, and this card also gives a deeper layer of meaning to your sign’s personality and strengths.
Ahead, we break down which card is your special tarot twin.
Aries: The Emperor
March 21 to April 20
You’re an alpha; you like taking control, being in front, leading, bossing and marshalling other people to your own agenda, and The Emperor perfectly mirrors that side of your nature.
The Emperor brings you the ability to keep your head when others lose theirs, and show the courage and mettle necessary to inspire people, and put your agenda first more often than not (if you don’t, who will…).
Seek leadership roles and fulfil your potential.

Taurus: The Hierophant
April 21 to May 21
The Hierophant is a spiritual and wise guru, who can take higher powers and cerebral knowledge and transform it into something useful, practical and beautiful.
The Hierophant inspires others to live a more fulfilling life. It’s a little known fact just how creative you are, Taurus.
When you put your mind to something, you can become incredibly skilled and create things the rest of us simply can’t.
You have a great eye for aesthetics, and you know what feels good. Seek to create and make the world more beautiful.

Gemini: The Lovers
May 22 to June 21
The Lovers tarot card is often misinterpreted. A lot of people think it’s just about romance, but it’s more complicated and deep than surface love and lust. Just like many people think you’re a friendly, open book when they meet you… but you’re way more complex than that.
The Lovers reflects divided feelings, head vs heart decisions, wandering eyes, and the ability (or curse?) to see both sides of everything and value multiple options.
It’s the curse in all relationships, wondering if this is it.
This card brings you your complexity, flexibility and independence. Seek variety and multi-tasking in life, and share your knowledge as wide as you can.

Cancer: The Chariot
June 22 to July 23
The Chariot (a card about strong purposeful direction and movement) doesn’t necessarily feel immediately like (emotive, imaginative, homely) Cancerian energy, but it actually reflects an inner part of you that many may not realise is there.
You are a Cardinal sign, born at the start of a season (summer) and therefore blessed with powers of initiative, ambition and drive. Deep down, you know where you are headed in life, and woe betide anyone getting in your way.
Seek to find your purpose in life, and move mountains to achieve it.

Leo: Strength
July 24 to August 23
The lion that is usually pictured on this card seems an obvious match for Leo. On a deeper level, though, it reflects your greatest gift: strength.
You are not only outwardly brave and confident, but you have enormous reserves of the softer shades of strength: compassion, resilience, empathy, protectiveness.
You always stick up for others, as well as yourself. You are the sort of person people turn to when the chips are down. You nurture people through pain.
Seek to protect the underdogs in this world and take them under your wing.

Virgo: The Hermit
August 24 to September 23
The Hermit is a card about taking yourself and your life seriously, and Virgo – you do.
This particular tarot card relates to your task-master focus and serious outlook on life. You expect certain standards and commitments. You have expectations and they are highest for yourself. It’s unrelenting, but it gets you places.
You are ultra-reliable, and your discipline can propel you to great heights. You are willing to go above and beyond.
Seek opportunities to do what others won’t, or can’t.

Libra: Justice
September 24 to October 23
Having the astrological symbol of the scales makes Justice card feels like an overt and visual connection. There’s a deeper meaning here too, though, and that is your preoccupation with fairness and equality.
It matters to you that things are balanced and above-board, transparent and equal. You love to weigh up your options (and other people’s) and you pride yourself on following an ethical pathway.
You have a steel-trap mind for analysis and objective assessment.
Seek fairness in all things and help balance the scales of justice in this world.

Scorpio: Death
October 24 to November 22
Death is tarot card that always freaks people out, but it’s not about actual death, it’s about transformation and the cycle of life, everything beginning and ending in a natural flow, which matches your ruling planet Pluto’s influence, too.
As such, the underbelly of human nature fascinates you. The process of death and decay draws your gaze, when others look away.
We need your courage and fortitude in this world, because there is darkness all around.
Seek truth, all the way down to the very deep, dark bottom of things, and help the rest of us understand it.

Sagittarius: Temperance
November 23 to December 21
Temperance is great reflection of your inner resilience and courage to face life head on, and accept accountability.
Temperance is about balance, finding a new normal when extreme circumstances have knocked you over.
You are a very exuberant sign and, left to your own devices, you can swing to extremes of behaviour that get you into hot water. But you take ownership of your mistakes, work hard to correct them, and regain a healthy balance. You self regulate.
Seek your freedoms and rebellions, but always keep your true core in sight, and let that be your compass in life.

Capricorn: The Devil
December 22 to January 21
The Devil card is linked to Saturn, which is your ruling planet, and therefore your totem card. It often speaks of temptation, bad habits, following a path of least resistance, but you are a self-controlled, disciplined sign, and it’s not this part of its meaning that applies to you.
What The Devil has for you is its message that we are all 100% free and 100% accountable to live our lives as we decide. Freedom to do whatever, but also a commitment to own that path, those choices, and the consequences.
You are strong and stoic enough to take the full burden of everything you decide to do. You are an individual.
Seek the path that you alone are built to walk and set an example for others.

Aquarius: The Star
January 22 to February 19
You’re like a character from outer space, full of big ideas, global concerns, the big picture ever in sight.
All Aquarians have a link to aviation, space travel, invention and innovation (via their ruling planet Uranus). Your mind can travel far beyond the humdrum confines of planet earth’s concerns.
The Star tarot card is about wishes, high hopes, dreams come true, and shows the boundless nature of your potential as a person.
You can, when you put your cleverness and passion into it, change the world, for the better because you’re also a natural humanitarian.
Seek to invent solution to solve our planet’s big problems.

Pisces: The Moon
February 20 to March 20
Mystical Pisces! Your tarot connection to The Moon card represents your intuitive and psychic nature, the latent esoteric and healing skills you possess in abundance.
The Moon tarot card is all about mystery and illusion, what lies beneath the veneer of reality, the unseen.
You get other people, maybe knowing them better than they understand themselves sometimes. You have an instinctive sense of truth and what’s really going on, and even what might unfold.
Seek spiritual practices to reveal your psychic abilities.
