Tarot TikTok

says be patient. The moon 
can be hard to love. 

Crescent edges
a needle in bed. Gone 

each month in her new 
phase and knowing she’ll return

to her bright and full self 
doesn’t make easier

her absence. Pisces 
in Aquarius. Mars fallen 

for some bucking 
bull. Explain 

like she’s a child. 
These lovers in reverse. 

The magician. Upright fool. 
Who knows if these readers 

are legit, or what she’s in 
search of this 4am, 

awake despite not wanting 
to be. Two of swords 

reversed. Everyone is locked 
in internal struggle, 

at least sometimes. Someone 
always missing someone 

else. What catches her attention 
must be worth

observation. Consideration. 
Take what serves her. Leave 

what doesn’t. Sagittarius holds 
an arrow taut toward a fog

of nostalgia. Maybe something 
good is coming, but she 

can’t tell if the reckoning 
on the horizon is for her. 

Stay patient. Steady. Open
her heart. Protect her peace.

Remember what they told her: 
the moon is hard to love.
