Your Halloween Tarot Card Reading Predicts What Lies in Store for Your Zodiac Sign on the Spookiest Night of the Year

Using Christina Ricci's Cat Full of Spiders deck, here's what Halloween has in store for you, according to a tarot reader

With Halloween approaching, an eerie yet enchanting energy crackles through the air, instilling a sense of anticipation and mystery. This time of year never ceases to spark fascination with the unknown, inviting us to venture beyond the physical realm and tap into our intuition.

As the days grow darker and the veil becomes thinner, we dance with the shadows under the moonlight, reconnecting with ancient mystical practices like Tarot that have long guided seekers through the realms of intuition and transformation for centuries.

Each Tarot card is steeped in symbolism, whispering secrets from the depth of our subconscious, inviting us to unravel their mysteries by offering insight, guidance and a deeper understanding of the energetic forces surrounding us.

This Halloween brings an added layer of spooky intrigue, especially with the sun, Mercury and a dark moon in Scorpio intensifying our connection to the unseen.

On top of being the planet of communication, Mercury is the only deity able to travel in and out of the Underworld (as per the Roman myth), which deepens our ability to explore hidden truths and unlock mysteries out of reach.

Mercury will also oppose rebellious Uranus, which continues to stir unexpected revelations, so in hopes of tapping into these psychic undercurrents, I used Christina Ricci’s Cat Full of Spiders Tarot Deck and Guidebook, a “surrealist dive” into Ricci's “cinematic subconscious.”

The 78-card deck features a collection of artworks as captivating and mysterious as the season itself, along with a specially curated guidebook explaining each card and its meaning.

"Tarot for me feels like an incredible instrument to use your self-knowledge, self-reflection capabilities [and] your intuition," Ricci tells PEOPLE exclusively. "You come as yourself with your full journey behind you, all the things you've collected in your life emotionally and experientially."

This is very true. When reading Tarot, each card serves as a mirror, reflecting insights and energies surrounding our personal journeys and experiences. If you believe in magic, you’re certainly not alone, as the Yellowjackets star, too, shares this sense of curiosity and wonder.

"My perspective on pretty much all things mystical is that there is real magic in the world," she says.
