Tarot card of the month: August 2025, Ace of Wands

 



Signs: Aries, Leo, Sagittarius   Element: Fire Direction: South

Planets: Mars, Sun, Venus 

August is a fast paced month, it is transformative with a fiery direct action, buckle up. As you can see the knight is facing the left hand side of the card, which is the feminine intuitive side, it is passive energy and it also looks to the past as opposed to male energy is aggressive, forward moving energy and looks to the future. 

August sees news coming quickly from the eastern direction heading towards the west, although  the south is covered by this card too. News events from places like The Middle East, Russia, Ukraine, Africa/ Asia. Quick thinking and action, ideas and concepts are indicated for August. Some things are of greater importance than others. We will see originality involved here, and this could involve conflict where something is happening unexpectedly but it’s novel. Be that a new approach with conflict, weapons or warfare. This is not a resolution more like taking it to the next level. Be aware because all is not as it seems either. 

Gullible politicians in the west are too trusting and naive for their own good. They are too dull witted to see the challenges and dangers they face, or more like the public face because it is them that suffer not the politicians. 

Looking at the horse on the card, I feel the horse is lame or injured, I am drawn to the red patches on the front legs of the horse, implying wounds or injuries. Because we use mechanical equipment and vehicles in the military in modern times this could imply a breakdown in equipment and transport. The knight forces the horse to go on as he drives him forcefully (Aries energy which is dynamic action with a forceful drive) . The knight has a clear view of what is in front of him, be that his target, enemy or bringing an urgent message. I feel there is a very strong political drive pushing forward forcefully and western leaders are caught off guard in a knee jerk reaction. They may act too quickly without checking out the details of the information or incident. Big mistake! 

There is a huge financial burden with this. This is careless behaviour, money seems to be easy come, easy go. But there is a bigger price to pay in the long run which is borne by the public. More stringent taxes, loss of the standard of living and poverty driving people into poverty and into the gutter. I feel this sweeps right across Europe, fighting Russia is expensive and must be paid for somehow. 

Donald Trump Has a few plans  up his sleeve (facepalm). How much will this hurt the public? Big money involved, this is expensive. Trump is also running out of patience and will lash out again over world events such as Ukraine and Gaza. World leaders will recoil in shock.

Watch petrol prices rise again, you could have to walk to work. Expect traffic issues in August, England has some upsets as do France, Jordan and Iran. Expect explosive news from the Middle East, this is so serious that even China is shocked. 

I hear the words, medical intervention, for children in Gaza. Quick action to prevent more deaths is coming. Women are pushing this agenda to stop more children’s deaths. This is a major news article and calls for mercy flights. A young girl with long brown hair is in the news due to her plight. This is a late cry for help, it feels like she may have already died but the legacy is fuelling the drive to save children. 

I feel this poor little girl is injured or killed by an explosion and there wasn’t any help for her to survive. This is a human tragedy that will get much worse, not better. The world must step up to end crimes against humanity and especially for children and vulnerable people. 

Expect tax breaks in August in some countries. Shops are also desperate for customers and are reducing prices on common goods. Retail is under fire for price gouging, this could mainly be for food. Spending is down and retailers are not happy about that. They are desperate and want your money.

Please spare a thought for the ordinary shop assistants on a fixed or low income, it is hard for the workers to survive while corporations are raking in billions yet pay their workers poorly and work them into the ground in poor working conditions. 

I ask people to drive carefully on the roads this month because there is a higher than normal chance for serious accidents and injuries. Try to stay calm and stay focused, so what if you are five minutes late, would you rather be alive and safe or dead? 

Blessings and warm and fuzzy hugs everyone 🧸🧸
