August 2026 Tarot Card Energy Predictions
August 2026 Tarot Energy Predictions
Using Queer Tarot deck by Ash & Chess
Every month I sit down with the cards and pull one for each element: Air, Water, Earth, and Fire, asking what the collective most needs to know right now.
Take what resonates for your element and let this be a grounded guide for how to work with the month ahead.
With gratitude for Spirit and all who walk this path. ✨
Earth (Taurus, Virgo, Capricorn)
🌱 Earth: Reversed Nine of Cups
This month is a time to reflect on the first half of the year. You have made great progress in the goals you set, but you still feel like something is missing. Give yourself some space, time and energy this month to honor and celebrate the achievements and the progress that you’ve made. Things may not have been working out as planned in this moment, but that's ok. Take some time to be out in nature and do things that bring you joy. Re-evaluate and reflect on what is important to you so you can make any necessary adjustments. Think about what it feels like to have your dreams come true. Remember this feeling and go back to it when things feel out of sorts.
Affirmation: “I celebrate my achievements by honoring myself through rest, recovery and moments of joy."
Ritual Practice: At least once a week (or better yet, daily), write down 8 things that you are grateful for. This can be of any shape or form, past, present and future. After you have written them down, read them out loud. Have the list somewhere accessible so that if you need a reminder, it is a just a glance away.
A personal reading can help you understand where life is asking you to realign, release old patterns, and make empowered decisions. If this reading resonated for you, and you would like to explore the energy further, I encourage you to book a Guidance from Spirit reading this month.
Air (Gemini, Libra, Aquarius)
🌬️ Air: Reversed Temperance
You’ve been feeling overwhelmed with thoughts, worries, concerns, fears, uncertainty in your life. This month is asking you to slow down and connect to the natural world around you. Life isn’t just about the material man-made lifestyle. Life is also about our interconnectedness and relationship with the elements. If you’re feeling imbalanced in one aspect of your life, think about what you may be neglecting. Whatever is being neglected, acknowledge it and make the time to tend to it. Moderation is important in all that you do.
Affirmation: “I honor the fluidity of life and trust in my relationship with the elements to guide me."
Ritual Practice: Choose a day where you can go on a solo date out in nature, ideally during sunset. Bring a journal with you. Soak in the scenery, enjoy all of the senses and be present with it. At the end of your time there, write down your life vision, goals, values, and priorities. Reflect on how these may have changed over the years and create a mini action plan for this month that creates a balance between all aspects of your life.
A personal reading can help uncover the deeper patterns you're ready to release while offering guidance on your next steps. If this reading resonated for you, and you would like to explore the energy further, I encourage you to book a Guidance from Spirit reading this month.
Water (Cancer, Scorpio, Pisces)
🌊 Water: Reversed Five of Pentacles
Whatever you have been avoiding is ready to come to light this month. Are you avoiding a difficult conversation with someone? Coming to terms that a job isn't working out for you? What situation has been heavy on your mind but have felt at a standstill with? Is it really the person/situation/environment that is to blame or are you playing a role in your own pain and discontent? This is not the time to just walk away from it. This is the time to make the space to sit with it. Ask for support if needed. Be gentle with yourself. If you have been worried about finances, know that this uncertainty will ease up. A new job, opportunity or situation may be the factor that helps bring in financial security.
Affirmation: "I stand tall in my being, knowing that all will be ok."
Ritual Practice: Spend some time sitting at a calming sacred space in your home. Set a timer to write for 5 minutes any/all problems that you are currently dealing with. Write down your frustrations, worries, anything that comes to mind without censoring yourself. Once you are done, set a timer for two minutes, stand up and create movement in your body. Sway, dance, jump, whatever feels right. Then, sit down and set another 5 minutes. Write from the outside perspective. What would you say to someone coming to you with their worries? How can you offer gentle support and guidance and help them feel heard? Give yourself the compassion you would give to others.
A personal reading can help you understand what your soul is asking you to slow down and notice, while offering guidance for the season ahead. If this reading resonated for you, and you would like to explore the energy further, I encourage you to book a Guidance from Spirit reading this month.
Fire (Aries, Leo, Sagittarius)
🔥 Fire: Reversed Magician
This month is highlighting the delays you've been experiencing in your home, relationship, and/or job life. What about the situation has changed that is showing you that not everything is as you had hoped it to be? Maybe you’re feeling hesitant about taking the next step because you feel you haven’t planned enough to get started. If you feel yourself becoming overreactive and easily stressed when things aren't going according to plan, take a break and regulate your nervous system with an easy to do activity. Give gratitude to the delays and the accompanying situations that have made you realize that something better is out there for you. Remember that the answer may not be available to you in this moment, but with time, the clouds will clear, and with patience, you will understand how the slowness helped you in your journey.
Affirmation: "I am safe to share my truth."
Ritual Practice: In the morning, grab a glass of ice water with a slice of lemon in it. Holding it in your hands, observe how the cold feels, and the condensation gets transferred to your hands. Notice the scent of the water. Taking a slow drink, feel how the water tastes and awakens your senses. Take your time being present with this moment. Give gratitude to the morning sun, and share prayer to Spirit stating whatever feels heavy or unclear and how you are open to receive support.
