Hello my lovely Libra Family! Welcome to your 2026 yearly reading. This year is about rebuilding stability in a new way, letting go of outdated cycles, and learning how to move forward without carrying the weight of the past. There’s a strong message here around redefining security, home, and long-term goals on your terms.
For this reading, I’m using the traditional Rider Waite deck alongside the Well Worn Path. Be sure to check your Sun, Moon, and Rising signs for the fullest picture of what this year holds for you.
For the present, we pulled the Four of Wands reversed, King of Pentacles, Ten of Pentacles, and the Wheel of the Year. Right now, something about your sense of stability feels off. The Four of Wands reversed shows that what once felt secure, which the 4 of wands typically represents the home, relationships, or routines, may not feel as solid as it used to. The King and Ten of Pentacles show that you want long-term security, legacy, and peace, especially financially. The Wheel of the Year confirms this is a natural cycle shift. Something is changing not because you failed, but because you’ve outgrown the old version of stability. You’re in a transition phase, not a setback. Appreciate this new perspective, it will be what you need to grow this year.
I pulled on some challenges and I received the Chariot, Page of Cups, and the Old Ones.
You’re being pushed to move forward, but emotionally you may feel unsure or hesitant. The Chariot wants momentum, but the Page of Cups shows emotional sensitivity or uncertainty about how you truly feel. There may be a challenge with keeping your drive and motivation this year, as well as expressing yourself and your feelings, especially to those closest to you. The Old Ones bring ancestral wisdom and old patterns into the mix. The challenge is learning how to move forward without letting old emotional habits or inherited beliefs slow you down. You’re being asked to lead yourself differently this year.
I pulled on some underlying roots and influences for this year and we get the the Six of Cups, Ace of Swords, and Hearth. One of the main things influencing your year is your relationship to the past and living in the past. The Six of Cups shows nostalgia, old relationships, or familiar emotional patterns. The Ace of Swords brings clarity, you’re finally seeing the truth about what no longer works. Hearth grounds this in themes of home, family, and emotional safety. This year asks you to redefine what home and family really means for you, not what it used to mean. This is you moving forward on your own terms, which could bring some changes in the relationships around you.
I pulled on how you appear to others and how others see you this year and for this we received the Seven of Wands, Magician, and the Moon. Others see you as strong, capable, and a little guarded. The Seven of Wands shows someone who stands their ground. The Magician shows skill, confidence, and personal power. The Moon adds mystery people may sense that you’re intuitive, private, and processing things internally. Even if you don’t say much, others can feel that you’re in a deep internal shift. You don’t seem to be the person you used to be and that is ok, people can’t read you this year too easily.
For a theme of the year, this comes with with the Hanged Man, Death, Six of Wands, and Harvest. This is a year of transformation followed by recognition. The Hanged Man and Death show a major change in perspective and identity. Something must end so something better can grow. You are going through a major transformation and your identity is shifting. The Six of Wands and Harvest show success, reward, and acknowledgment after this shift. You may not see immediate results, but by the end of the year, you’ll realize the pause and release were necessary for your growth.
I pulled on influencing aspects, we pulled the Emperor, Two of Pentacles reversed, and Words of the Magus. There’s pressure to take control and get organized. The Emperor wants structure and leadership, while the Two of Pentacles reversed shows that juggling everything is no longer working, this year you learn that delegating is not optional. Words of the Magus reminds you that what you speak and commit to has power. This year is about choosing fewer things and choosing them intentionally.
For aspirations and concerns, we received the Devil, Nine of Wands, and Initiation.
You want freedom, but you’re also tired. The Devil shows attachments or habits that are hard to release, while the Nine of Wands shows exhaustion from carrying things too long. Initiation tells me this year is a rite of passage. You’re stepping into a new level of awareness, but it requires letting go of what has kept you stuck even if it feels familiar.
For advice we pulled the Hierophant, Eight of Wands, Six of Swords, Justice, Ancestral Spirit, and Air. Honor your values, but don’t be afraid to move quickly when clarity arrives. There may come a point in the year where you are reevaluating ideas and beliefs that you have been ingrained with. The Six of Swords shows leaving troubled waters behind. Justice reminds you to be fair to yourself, not just others. Ancestral Spirit and Air highlight wisdom, communication, and mental clarity. Listen to guidance both spiritual and practical and trust your judgment. This is about making conscious, aligned choices.
Lastly we pull on some of the outcomes for the year and I received the High Priestess, Seven of Cups, Temperance reversed, Fool, Five of Cups reversed, and Cakes and Wine. By the end of the year, you’re more intuitive and self-aware. The High Priestess shows deep inner knowing. The Seven of Cups suggests options, but you’ll be clearer about what’s real and what’s illusion. Temperance reversed shows imbalance early on, but the Fool brings a fresh start. The Five of Cups reversed shows healing and emotional release. Cakes and Wine close this reading with joy, celebration, and peace. You end the year lighter, clearer, and ready for a new chapter. Be open to any new opportunities that come in, as the fool represents new paths. However, it is going to be important that you don’t make decisions based on past failures. Make sure to keep a proper balance on the spiritual and physical. You are learning now how to stand firmly in your own truth.
