Hello, Your Monthly Horoscope for May Is Here

More twists and turns unfold on May 13 when the Sun in Taurus and Uranus in Taurus team up. This is a wonderful day to show the world a new side of yourself. This energy is disruptive, though, and there is the potential for big egos to clash. Fortunately, on the same day, Venus in Taurus mingles with Saturn in Pisces. This lends a grounding, practical energy to your interactions. Discussing boundaries or making new commitments might be a theme. Mercury, the planet of communication, enters Taurus on May 15. Over the next few weeks, you’re more stubborn, and you might need extra time to express yourself or make decisions. You may also find yourself reflecting on your relationship with the material world, finances, and your personal value system.

Secrets are revealed on May 17 when Mercury in Taurus rams into Pluto in Aquarius. Taboo conversations bubble up to the surface, as do compulsive thoughts. The following day, optimism fills the sky when the Sun in Taurus meets up with Jupiter in Taurus. This marks a new cycle for your personal goals, belief systems, and support. You might feel like luck is on your side, and it is! On the same day, Venus in Taurus links up with Uranus in Taurus, delivering shock and surprise to your close relationships and finances. Maybe you decide to elope—or end a long-term relationship or contract out of the blue. This energy brings out the urge to act rashly without weighing the consequences. Do your best to temper this impulse, if possible. Mars and the North Node of Destiny unite in the sky on the same day, adding an element of passion, frustration, and motivation. Whatever you pour your energy into may feel fated in some way. May 19 is a calmer day as the Sun in Taurus syncs up with Neptune in Pisces. This is a beautiful day to nurture your creative vision, invest in a romantic connection, or to lean into your compassion. The energy is soothing and this is a great day to pamper yourself.

The cosmic weather shifts on May 20 when the Sun enters Gemini, marking the final zodiac season of spring. Gemini season is finally here! As the Sun bounces through light-hearted Gemini, you’re in a more mood, eager to connect with others and follow your curiosities. No matter your own zodiac sign, the next few weeks have you eager to learn from others, try new things, and share your knowledge. This is a powerful time to reconnect with your voice. On May 22, the Sun in Gemini merges with Pluto in Aquarius, stirring up a sense of empowerment. You’re able to recognize your own growth and transformation. You might gain more confidence in yourself or receive recognition from a person with power.

May 23 is a jam-packed day: There’s a Full Moon in Sagittarius, which illuminates some important information. This brings you back to last year’s New Moon in Sagittarius on December 12. A goal or situation that was unfolding around that time reaches a turning point today. On the same day, there are three other ~major~ planetary connections that promise blessings and abundance are on their way: Venus in Taurus connects with Jupiter in Taurus; Venus in Taurus mingles with Neptune in Pisces; and Jupiter in Taurus syncs up with Neptune in Pisces. Translation: Luck is on your side, romance is in the air, and you’re making exciting progress on some of your dreams!

Later in the day, Venus, the planet of love and balance, enters Gemini. You’re craving more adaptability in your romantic connections over the coming weeks, and you’re eager to nurture an intellectual connection, as well. If there’s no witty banter, you don’t want it! People will be a little flakier, so do your best to not take any rescheduling personally. You’re hopping into a time machine on May 25 when Jupiter enters Gemini for the first time in over 12 years. This brings you back to June 2012-June 2013. Think of the ways in which you experienced growth with your goals, personal beliefs, and your spirituality during that time. Similar themes may come up over the next few months. Watch out for information overload over the coming year—Jupiter is all about expansion and Gemini is all about communication. This can stir up overthinking and even lead to mental exhaustion, but on the bright side, this is a wonderful time to share your beliefs, thoughts, and ideas with others.

On the same day, you’re experiencing some depth in your closest ties when Venus in Gemini mingles with Pluto in Aquarius. This is the day to talk about your kinks and share a hidden side of yourself. Being vulnerable will strengthen your relationships. Mercury, the planet of communication, meets with Saturn in Pisces on May 27. You’re ready to formulate a plan and move forward. You’re centering your own healing journey on May 29, when Mars in Aries merges with Chiron in Aries. Today’s energy can be chaotic yet enlightening, and this is a productive day to engage in healing work and to break cycles. The month ends with some shocking news when Mercury in Taurus links up with Uranus in Taurus on May 30. You could hear from someone surprising or receive an unexpected contract. Others may shock you with what they share today, or maybe you’re the one taking a risk and speaking your mind.
