Transcript

SPEAKER_00 0:01

Welcome to Romanestan.

SPEAKER_01 0:04

We're your friendly neighborhood gypsies.

SPEAKER_00 0:07

I'm Paulina.

SPEAKER_01 0:08

And I'm Jazz. We are here with your tarot reading for the week of January 26, 2026. Paulina, what do we have?

SPEAKER_00 0:18

So for the Knight of Pentacles for love, this one feels very like a little bit regular, kind of what you would do on a daily basis to maintain your love life and connections and relationships and you know just all people around that you could possibly love or just have emotions for.

Knight Of Swords In Money

SPEAKER_01 1:24

I feel like this card reminds me of how competency is sexy. Um, having your shit together is hot. You know, being a grown-ass adult is impressive. Like the Knight of Pentacles is just like do all the stuff you said you were gonna do, do what you're supposed to do, show up in super practical ways, acts of service, you know, support. And I think that this could be what you're calling in if you are like, I already do that. I'm a grown-up, but like I show up for everyone. Maybe this card is saying, like, look for the people who do this for you as well. And yeah, just like this feels like very much like do what you say you're gonna do, follow through, which is important, and I love it.

SPEAKER_00 2:08

Yes, be grown. We support you, yes, be grown. Be grown. Then we get the knight of swords for money. Two knights is crazy.

SPEAKER_01 2:24

I know we're and knights bring in change, and they mean you're on a mission, so it feels like for love and money, we are on a mission, which is great.

SPEAKER_00 2:32

It is great, it's almost telling you, like, okay, the first month of the year is just a little crazy because like you're feeling the resolutions, you're feeling like your eyes are opening from things in the past, like the planets are in a new arrangement, and like you're sensitive to that, and so you're starting to see things more different and clearly. So all of that's happening, and you are just in a place where again, like you have to get go back to the basics, like when it comes to money, like do what makes money, like put some hours in, put some work in, like, figure it out, think outside of the box, ask for help, um, network, like just cold call, bro. Like, do all of that shit and like go back to basics, start your shit up, and yeah, like get it together.

SPEAKER_01 3:29

Yes, this feels like be smart, strategize. You might even have opportunities, especially with the Knight of Swords here, to take classes or get certified or take a workshop or do something that you feel like supports your career goals, allows you to learn. If you're an autodidact and you're teaching yourself, that's great. Not everyone needs to go to school to get things done, but maybe you maybe you do. And if you do, then go do it. And this is just such a good time, also, if if let's say you have a small business, like do you have a business plan? And when was the last time you revisited it? And do you need to check out check out your goals and you know how you want to get from point A to point B? This is definitely a week for strategizing and learning and using your brain, just being really proactive that way. And this is a reminder that you're smart and you should, you know, use your brain and trust that you can be clever and adaptable and scrappy and ambitious.

Strategy, Learning, And Career Moves

SPEAKER_00 4:29

Yes, 100%. Then for the guidance card, we get the page of pentacles.

SPEAKER_01 4:41

So practical and nerdy this week.

SPEAKER_00 4:45

What do you feel about the page?

Page Of Pentacles Guidance

SPEAKER_01 4:47

The page feels like we're making good decisions, but there's also a little bit of playfulness and experimentation in it, where it's like, yes, you're being very grounded this week. You're making good decisions and you're learning and you're growing, but that doesn't mean that you can't have a little fun, that you can't be experimentative and that you can't be creative. Like you should definitely be fun and take fun risks and be creative and think out of the box. And it's okay if you don't know what you're doing, if you're a beginner at something, you can still be smart and scrappy. And I feel like the page just lets us take care of our inner child, uh, even though the weak might feel a little serious.

Fear, Resilience, And Letting Go

SPEAKER_00 5:24

What do you think? So I feel like I will probably end up triggering some people or whatever. But I feel like the page of pentacles is telling you be grounded and like you said, take those risks, embrace the childlike curiosity that comes along with adventure and new life decisions and all of that stuff. And the reason why I'm gonna trigger people is because maybe what you're afraid of the most is maybe something you might even be able to get through. And I'm talking about horrible things like poverty and pain and trauma and darkness and sickness and just all the worst things in life. Like maybe what you're afraid of is going to just overcome that. And like maybe you try a business and it doesn't work, but you are still on the right path, and it ends up leading you closer to your purpose. Like, you know, I again I think it's kind of the closeout to this whole attachment, letting go of attachment theme. And like even in the worst times, we have to keep going and and um yeah, like we can only go up from here. And I say that from personal experience, like the worst things in my life I got through, you know what I mean? And obviously, yes, have compassion for yourself, but also trust in yourself. So yeah.

Hope, Healing, And Playfulness

SPEAKER_01 7:07

I think that's really good advice. And I I think that the tower last week sometimes is that card that's like, listen, sometimes the worst thing happens and it's not what you think it is. It's like it's an opportunity to start again, or it's more of a life lesson than a disaster. And sometimes the worst things happen just in general in life. I'm not talking about a prediction for this week or anything. And then you just you keep going and you find you do heal and you find happiness on the other side of it. And this card, the page of pentacles, of just like you gotta have fun while you do all the real human things. It's like just asking you to have a little hope and faith that you can make it through and be creative about how you do it even when things are.

SPEAKER_00 7:52

Yes, I agree.

SPEAKER_01 7:56
