Astral Projections: Sunday Tarot Readings (Week 7)
Post Body

My friends, sit down and relax. Clear your minds and empty your preconceptions. Come into this clear and ready for anything. It's time to consult the cards r/fantasyfootball, let's get to it!

This post only contains top-5 at each position, you can find (some) more readings here!

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. 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.

Let's a go!

Quarterbacks:

Player Name Card Keywords Hot Take
Patrick Mahomes VI of Pentacles Charity, generosity, sharing Great play this week. He'll be sharing the wealth and giving out points. Don't be surprised if we see a number of players with TDs.
Jared Goff The Devil - Reversed Freedom, release, restoring control Bounce baaaack! Goff is back baby, though he does still have a bit more work needed to free himself fully.
Kirk Cousins V of Pentacles Need, poverty, insecurity I really don't like these words here, but this card does indicate that there are options available to Kirk. It just depends on if he can take advantage. I'd downgrade from #4 this week.
Cam Newton IX of Swords - Reversed Fear, lack of objectivity, despair Not a good draw this week. The need to "take a step back" makes me think we see less of Cam rushing himself.
Jameis Winston II of Wands Planning, making plans, discovery "This man beholds the material in which he can make his designs come true." Sounds like the future will be better, but this should be inspiring. Just temper expectations somewhat after last week.

Running Backs:

Player Name Card Keywords Hot Take
Gurley VI of Swords Transition, leaving behind, moving on This card doesn't mean that Gurley is leaving behind points, but that he's leaving his opponents behind. He might not get all the TDs if Goff reemerges, but he'll get yards.
Elliott Queen of Swords Complexity, perceptive, clear mindedness Good week for Zeke! Play him, he's playing clear.
Hunt VI of Pentacles Charity, generosity, sharing Hunt is ready to reward those who start him. He will cede some touches, but I think you have to go with the player who is giving out wealth.
Mixon V of Wands - Reversed Avoiding conflict, respecting differences Walking away from battle isn't a great sign. But, I want to read this as elusiveness as well. Few yards afer contact, decent performance.
Kamara III of Pentacles Teamwork, collaboration, building "Teamwork helps create something new." Yep, that's Kamara's situation! He'll be solid, start him for sure. Everyone wins.

Wide Receivers:

Player Name Card Keywords Hot Take
Adam Thielen The Fool - Reversed Recklessness, being taken advantage of, inconsideration Overrated this week. There's danger coming with Thielen (think picks more than injury). Still a good shot as he's playing with energy, but QB issues may hold him back.
Tyreek Hill VII of Pentacles Hard work, perseverance, diligence Good week for Hill. This draw doesn't suggest that he's in line for amazing rewards, but he's definitely putting in a ton of work and in line for receptions.
AJ Green VI of Pentacles - Reversed Selfishness, stinginess, debt Selfishness is good, stinginess isn't. He'll get targets but so will Boyd. Solid game, downgraded from the 4 spot though.
OBJ The Star - Reversed Insecurity, discouragement, faithlessness OBJ is stuck in negative thoughts. Definite downgrade. He needs to clear his head in order to perform with regularity.
DeAndre Hopkins Page of Wands Exploration, excitement, freedom Tough matchup, but doesn't sound like it should matter much. Good game coming.
