Nice job, Libra. You are super creative, and today that imagination seems to be working overtime in all the right ways for you. The Ace of Wands is about an incredible burst of innovative thinking.
Likely, this is going to happen in a hobby or passion project ... and it also could involve a person you really enjoy spending time with. The Moon is in Aquarius, making you think about romance, but not in a way that makes you try to make a big deal of it (yet). You want to be in the moment, and Tuesday is perfect for that vibe.

Tuesday's tarot card for Scorpio: Seven of Wands
Wow, it looks like a person you already know is moody and may have their facts all twisted. Should that happen on Tuesday, your tarot card has some advice.
The Seven of Wands says do not let them speak to you disrespectfully. You have every right to set boundaries for what you won't tolerate. You can say what you need to say and most definitely stand up for yourself, Scorpio. Say what you need to say, and let them learn you're no one's doormat.

Tuesday's tarot card for Sagittarius: Judgment, reversed
You, Sagittarius, can be just like everyone else and second-guess yourself. That's because every once in a while you speak before you think. Hey, it happens. Usually what comes out of your mouth is pure gold. That's why everyone loves you so much. They always know what they are going to get.
But today, you may have that one moment of doubt creep in, when you wish you hadn't said what you did. If it hasn't happened yet, put on the filter this Tuesday.
