Weekly Nerdoscope: Magic: the Gathering Edition

Time For A Quick 60..

Planeswalkers, shuffle your decks and ready your mana—this week’s energies mirror the ebb and flow of spells on the battlefield. Each zodiac sign takes form as an iconic Magic: The Gathering card archetype, blending fate and strategy into your daily draw. Remember: you can’t always control your opening hand, but you can choose how you play it.

♈ Aries – Lightning Bolt

Fast, fierce, and impossible to ignore, you’re sparking with passion this week. Burn away old doubts and let yourself be bold. Just remember: too many Bolts too fast, and you may fizzle out.

Slow and steady? Not this week. You’re leveling up, Taurus, and your strength is multiplying. Think of this as your +3/+3 boost to both confidence and stability.

Deck Tip: Nurture your roots—self-care is the soil that fuels your growth.

♊ Gemini – Counterspell

Your cleverness shines as you see moves before they happen. But be cautious: not every idea or person needs a “Nope.” Pick your battles wisely, and you’ll be the one reshaping the board.

♒ Aquarius – Brainstorm

Ideas are swirling in your head like shuffled cards, Aquarius. Use this week to sort, plan, and play your strongest hand. Innovation is your edge.

Deck Tip: Write everything down—genius can be fleeting.

♓ Pisces – Mystic Remora

Your intuition is heightened, but so is your need for connection. Watch what flows around you there are lessons in the currents of others’ actions.

Deck Tip: Stay open, but know when to stop paying upkeep for old bonds.

Josh's Final Note: This week plays out like a draft—you don’t control every card, but you do control how you build your deck. Lean into your archetype, trust your instincts, and remember: even one life point is enough for a comeback.
