Astral Projections: Thursday Night Tarot (Week 6)
Post Body
Gather round my fantasy friends, it's time to look into the future. More fantasy football tarot readings are here! Get hot tips from the universe to amaze and wow your friends.
After all, who knows more? The power of the universe, or just some rando sports writers who watch game tape? Think about it, the universe has seen EVERYTHING!
Past week spreadsheets with accuracy ratings (week 3 ) kindly added by tometoyou1983 (<33)
Notes:
- I currently use Golden Thread Tarot to save time and better record each read. Some reads in the future might be done with a physical deck.
- Each player has a single tarot card drawn to inform the question "How will [player name] perform in [week x] of the NFL season?"
- Each card cell links to a description in Labyrinthos (this will be added soon). They are the same descriptions/card illustrations as those in the Golden Thread app and help explain my comments on the card visuals.
- I'm not experienced in Tarot readings prior to this season at all.
Okay, here we go!
The Eagles:
| Player Position/Name | Card | Keywords | Hot Take |
|---|---|---|---|
| QB: Carson Wentz | Queen of Pentacles - Reversed | Work life balance, smothering | Wentz has been pretty solid, but there's turmoil between the field and the lockerroom/coaching staff. Don't expect more than we've seen this week, maybe slightly less than the last two games. |
| RB: Corey Clement | VI of Cups | Nostalgia, happy memories, reunion | A return to ore-injury form! Good draw for Clement, though taper expectations as this card isn't fully positive. Mediocre outing, but he'll look spry. |
| RB: Wendel Smallwood | Queen of Cups - Reversed | Coldness, insecurity, dependence | This card suggests instability which defines the Eagles RB situation. However, the dependence aspect favors Smallwood putting up some points. Good FP performance, but this is a true rbbc. |
| WR: Alshon Jeffrey | The Hermit - Reversed | Loneliness, isolation, lost your way | Isolation sounds good, but he's going to be covered all night. Volume could save Jeffrey, mediocre outing likely. |
| WR: Nelson Agholor | The Moon | Unconscious, illusions, intuition | He'll make catches, but he's not going to be dominant. I think he gets a fair number of bad targets which limit his FPs. |
| WR: Jordan Matthews | King of Cups - Reversed | Manipulation, moodiness, trickery | Matthews is a sneaky play this week. His head isn't there, but he might get open by confusing the defense. Better than last week, but not more than week 4. |
| TE: Ertz | III of Swords - Reversed | Recovery, forgiveness, moving on | Should continue his streak of solid performances. Start Ertz. |
| K: Jake Elliott | Death | End of a cycle, beginnings, change, metamorphosis | Whelp. Death is very hard to read. Either Elliott is going to lose his job this week or we'll see him around his ceiling. This card always scares me as the radical change it suggests is hard to predict. |
| D/ST | Judegement | Reflection, reckoning, inner voice | The Philly D hasn't been great in terms of FPs since week 1. Expect that to change in the future, this is the start of a return to form. Though don't expect it to be fully realized just yet. |
The New York Gigantic Footballers:
| Player Name/Position | Card | Keywords | Hot Take |
|---|---|---|---|
| QB: Eli Manning | Strength | Bravery, compassion, focus, inner strength | Eli picks up where he left off last week. He has a connection with the WRs right now. |
| RB: Saquon Barkley | IX of Pentacles | Fruits of labor, independence, rewards | Barkley goes off this week, which really just means he continues his solid play. Confident start. |
| RB: Wayne Gallman | The Chariot - Reversed | Lack of control, lack of direction, aggression | He'll be running hard but not getting a lot accomplished. Nope. |
| WR: OBJ | King of Cups | Compassion, control, balance | Play OBJ, he and Eli are buddy buddy this week. Compassion for both signals a good performance. |
| WR: Sterling Shepard | The Star - Reversed | Insecurity, discouragement, faithlessness | Sounds like Shepard isn't going to perform. He might get targets but have a tough time pulling them in. |
| WR: Cody Latimer | IX of Pentacles - Reversed | Mistakes, obsession with work, setbacks | Stay away. Putitng in work but not getting rewarded too much. |
| TE: Rhett Ellison | The Magician - Reversed | Trickery, illusions, out of touch | Very difficult read for me. I don't expect that great a performance, but the trickery could point to a weird TD. Can't trust him. |
| K: Koehn | The Star - Reversed | Insecurity, discouragement, faithlessness | Nope, don't start the brand new kicker. |
| D/ST | Death | End of a cycle, beginnings, change, metamorphosis | Hm... I'm not sure here. Something is changing with the NY defense, I think they perform pretty badly and hopefully it allows them to move forward next week. |
