You’re in a serious mood at the start of the month, Sagittarius. Taurus season encourages you to put in the hard work necessary to reach your goals. Over the next few weeks, you might feel like there’s more responsibility on your plate, but you also know that this will all be worth it in the end. It’s time to make adjustments to your daily routine and prioritize your wellbeing by setting boundaries and creating healthy habits.
You’re breaking through a fear of using your voice on May 2 when Pluto Retrograde begins in Aquarius. This brings you back to January 21, when Pluto first entered Aquarius this year. Taboo topics and conversations that center power, the past, control, or jealousy bubble up. You could also learn some cathartic news. Fortunately, you’re feeling inspired to use this information as fuel for your creative fire when Mars in Aries meets with Pluto in Aquarius on May 3. This is a great day for making progress on a personal goal or switching up your regular routine to incorporate a hobby. You might also engage in some steamy banter or sexting.
A New Moon in Taurus on May 7 brings a change to your everyday routine. You could be wrapping up a major project, or maybe you’re ready to take on a new responsibility that changes your typical day-to-day. Then, on May 13, the Sun and Uranus link up in the sign of Taurus. Some unforeseen responsibilities take over. This is not a day to hold yourself to a schedule, because something will likely come up last minute and derails your plans.
Mercury, the planet of the mind, enters Taurus on May 15 and encourages you to focus your mental energy on an important project. This makes your schedule busier, and it’s easy to overextend yourself. Reworking your daily habits can bring more balance. Petty conflicts and irritating conversations can also pop up, espcially at work. You’re making progress worth celebrating on May 18 when the Sun and Jupiter, both in Taurus, unite in the sky. This marks a lucky breakthrough for a big project or invites support for a commitment that’s feeling taxing. You’re receiving recognition for all of your hard work today. On the same day, Venus and Uranus, both in Taurus, join together. You’re running into old co-workers or acquaintances. Interactions can feel odd, from sudden outbursts to emotional breakthroughs. Save the important and tedious tasks for another day!
The Sun enters Gemini on May 20, putting your focus on your close one-on-one relationships. This Gemini season, singles might be ready to make a romantic commitment and couples are focusing on their beloveds. Someone important in your life might be going through a lot and ask for more of your time and support. The next few weeks are an exciting time to make progress on some of your biggest manifestations and desires. Use these cosmic vibes wisely.
May 23 is an incredibly busy day in the sky, and it all kicks off with a Full Moon in your sign. This makes you a little more emotional as you reflect on major aspects of your life and identity. This Full Moon can also bring an important turning point to one of your close one-on-one relationships—you might be ready to take the next step together, or alternately, step away from a connection you’ve outgrown. Venus and Jupiter, the two luckiest planets in the sky, also meet up on the same day, bringing a celebratory energy and the potential to make major progress on a project. You’re feeling supported by your loved ones. Next up, Jupiter and Neptune nestle up next to one another in a supportive sextile aspect. If you’re hoping to make a change in your daily life or living situation, the mashup of these two celestial giants can bring some of those dreams to a reality. Alternately, maybe you’re tackling items on your to-do list that have been taking up residence for months or years—like finally renovating that bathroom or having an important conversation with a family member. The skies are supportive of whatever you put your mind to today. Finally, Venus, the planet of love and blessings, enters Gemini near the end of the day. The next few weeks bring good news in business and exciting developments in your love life. Use that boost of magnetism to go after who and what you want!
On May 25, Jupiter enters Gemini for the first time since June 2012-13. This brings luck and expansion to the relationship sector of your birth chart. Singles could meet someone noteworthy and couples could make a major commitment to one another—from moving in together to getting engaged. This astrology supports your relationships, but also pushes you outside your comfort zone. If you’ve been resistant to dating, this might be when you decide to put yourself out there. On the same day, Venus in Gemini connects with Pluto in Aquarius, setting the stage for heart-opening conversations that deepen your connections and leave you feeling transformed. The month wraps up on May 30 with Mercury and Uranus uniting in the sky. Your regular schedule is likely to be disrupted and you can learn news that takes time to process. Prepare for a major shock factor today!
