The Sky and Zodiacs for the Month of May

May is the last month of spring, a prelude to a long awaited summer for the northern hemisphere, and a great time for escaping to nature before regrouping for the winter in the southern hemisphere.

Before i go into details regarding our solar system’s planetary interactions and how they relate to us, let us very briefly introduce our planets in order of distance from the sun, closest to furthest, to the newcomers who are curious enough to visit but really have no clue about astrology and zodiac signs.

• Sun: center of our galaxy, associated with Leo, sign of creative force-Helios in ancient Greece, the god of light.
• Mercury: nearest to the sun and fastest moving, associated with Gemini and Virgo, signs of communication-Hermes in ancient Greece, messenger for the gods.
• Venus: next in line and second brightest star on our sky, associated with Taurus and Libra, signs of strength and beauty-Aphrodite in ancient Greece, goddess of love.
• Earth: following suit, the planet of life growth, associated only by element (earth) with Taurus, Virgo and Capricorn- Gaia in ancient Greece, the primal mother earth goddess.
• Moon: the earth’s only natural satellite, associated with the sign of Cancer, sign of nurture- Artemis goddess of hunting and a healer of women.
• Mars: the red planet, associated with Aries, sign of assertion and drive –Aris in ancient Greece, god of war.
• Jupiter: the largest planet of our system radiates double the light it receives from the sun, associated with Sagittarius, sign of expansion and illumination- Zeus, in ancient Greece the god of gods.
• Saturn: next the ringed majestic planet of order, associated with Capricorn, sign of duty and dependability-in ancient Greece the god Pan, protector of woodlands and shepherds.
• Uranus: the gas giant, associated with Aquarius, the sign of innovation- Aquarius or beautiful Ganymede, the son of Trojan king Tros, was taken to Mount Olympus by Zeus to act as cup-carrier to the gods.
• Neptune: a striking blue giant, associated with Pisces, the sign of healing and illusion- in ancient Greece representing the fish into which Aphrodite and her son Eros transformed
• Pluto: the yellow dwarf planet or huge asteroid, associated with Scorpio, the intense truth-seeker- he was called on earth by Goddess Artemis to kill Orion who wanted to destroy all animals.

Ah, this month of May 2019, so many of us have rightfully bestowed upon it hopes and dreams of new beginnings, closing old debts, (financial, emotional, societal), that have been slowly surfacing since 2008/2009!, with Pluto and its intensity challenging Uranus’s freedom loving nature and both erupting into the infamous Uranus in Aries-Pluto in Capricorn series of seven square aspects between them from June6-July 9, 2012 to March 11-28, 2015, that produced a tsunami of socioeconomic events still shaking our world’s infrastructure to the core; because extreme unfairness causes extreme unbalance. Similar squares were seen between 1933-1936… rising of Nazism and all the darkness that followed. An intense full moon on the 18th on Scorpio 27 degree 39′ will illuminate hidden agendas, psychological and sex related issues and on the same day the Mercury/Pluto trine can bring to the table very important information. Can the positive planetary aspects of May shine through and support the 12 zodiac signs? Like a healing Sun/Neptune trine on May 9th, a constructive Sun/Saturn trine on May 11th. Or a Mars sextile Uranus after the 16-18 of May that brings help through technology. Of course they can; Let’s see how!

The new moon on the 4th at 14 degrees 11′ Taurus is all about the New! (social networks, jobs, relationships, property, summer shopping!) but do stay flexible when coming across possible delays; “the bamboo plant that bends with the wind doesn’t break”. This old Chinese proverb can come in handy while Saturn* and Pluto* act up while squaring Mercury May 1-3, Jupiter* opposes Mars on May 5th, so a calculated? leap of faith is kindly advised. A temporary delay on the otherwise positive Mercury (in Taurus May 6 to May 21)-Mars (in Cancer May 15 to July 1st) aspect during which timing is positive to pursue old goals or create new ones, but do your best to keep an emotional balance in order to see them through. A beautiful Sun/Saturn trine gives us a chance to attend to property issues/investments. Venus enters her natural habitat in Taurus May 15 to June 8 that allows us to indulge with care. Mars forms a hexagon with Uranus (try innovation but stay focused by keeping emotions at bay) and a Mercury/ Pluto trine (work on new ideas and how to solidify them but if you sign an agreement read the fine print;really do!).

*Saturn retrogrades April 29 to Sept. 18 and Pluto retrogrades Apr. 24 to Oct. 3 , *Jupiter retrogrades April 10 to Aug. 11. Before we look at each Zodiac Sign for the month of May, please read the following important brief paragraph regarding retrogrades (Rx).

Does mentioning retrogrades make you uneasy? Sure, the larger planets are currently on a retro-party mode!. Allow me however to share the following with you; during delays and what often seem like blockages, i find this to be the best window in time to clear my mind, reevaluate goals, stop and smell the roses and avoid traps! And when i am done being self absorbed and shift my focus to others and their needs, well then it becomes clear that no amount of obstacles can take away the value of a kind gesture, no matter the scale, so volunteer or give back what you can in any way you are able to!. Remember, balance is always key so do not overthink, instead try to adopt the notion that retrogrades, squares or oppositions can be challenging aspects to a degree but more often than not are blessings in disguise!!

Here are the twelve zodiac sings for the month of May. Get even more insight when you read both your sun sign and the one that corresponds to your ascendant. Enjoy!.

Aries

Hello child of action, are you still dizzy from the tumultuous visit of Uranus on your sign from 2010 to 2019?. Since you hate being bored this must have been quite the ride for you. This May your horizon is clearer so i hope you have figured out by now that

working and partying smart, not hard, is the key in order to keep your balance and channel your majestic fiery energy constructively. I have yet to meet an Aries in the last decade that has not experienced loss on some level; and just when life started to flow again, a sudden blow hit like the tail end of a storm Sept. to Nov. 2018 and again Mar. 2019. Loss, entrapment, news of illness in the family or someone like family, a new relationship perhaps with someone from your past or with a connection to your roots, that starts to remind you of passed mistakes due partly to carelessness around 2010-2011. This left you spinning, once again, which makes it a good time to seek professional help depending on the issue at hand. Venus and Mercury recently in your sign will be of great help, the first ,(Apr. 20-May 15), with all above mentioned relationship issues and the latter ,(Apr. 17-May 6), with communication/agreements. The full moon on the 18th on Scorpio 27 degree 39′ will illuminate hidden agendas, psychological and sex related issues; this will also assist you significantly in understanding the magnitude of destruction that can be caused by an inflated ego, others’ or your own. Jupiter came to your aid September 2016 to October 2017. This May is a portal connected to this Jupiter transit and to a bright future and with your sharpness and inner strength you can take the necessary steps to ensure your future success. Patience is not your strong point, but with three major planets in retrograde* (Rx), Saturn, Pluto and Jupiter, take advantage of the Rx period and practice your patience skills, they will come in handy as you slowly but surely rebuild your career, your major focus this month. Last but not least, go easy on overindulging as Mars in cancer after May 16 can be challenging to your health.

Taurus

Happy Birthday Taurus!. May your special month be your solid stepping stone to your path of rebirth and redirection in life. Has one of your latest personal odysseys, which was formed or experienced during Oct. 2012-Apr.2015, shown you that flexibility of mind

and stepping out of your comfort zone, can not only bring you faster close to your respective goal, but improve significantly the manner in which you pursue it?. Technology can be your friend!; or do you continue to dig your heels in the ground and trust outdated ideas, toxic individuals, even if they are members of your family?. The full moon on the 18th on Scorpio 27 degree 39′ will illuminate such conditions were they apply, hidden agendas, psychological and sex related issues. Perhaps if you look back now you can recognize not just those moments where you put your faith on the wrong people/business partnership/institution, (May to Nov. 2015) but also the times where you yourself were unfair and perhaps a tad too judgemental with others?, (Oct. 2017-Mar.2018) or simply used them, weather you meant to or not. Hopefully the dust has settled enough for you to be able to see, even in part, the benefit of letting go; to clearly understand that no one can carry an object or person or situation that ‘weighs’ more than they do. Because it will do just that, weigh you down and hold you back from being the star of your own new story, which is about to unfold!. Despite all this pressure, -(admittedly a great number of Tauruses, especially those born before 1985, experienced a series of painful events that culminated over the last 8 to 11 years and peaked between Jan. to Apr.2019, where so much of what you were taught to rely on collapsed)-, a lot of you have been and continue to be lucky through this transformative period. Pluto, in Capricorn from 2008, is a planet whose cathartic transits can make for a rather unpleasant experience, especially for those who do not like or resist change. If you have gone the extra mile (not just worked hard for your money, this you do already, you most resilient bull!), and did some soul searching either by your own accord or due to extenuating circumstances, do rejoice, because May 2019 will be truly liberating.

Gemini

You have heard it over and over again, double the fun, double the trouble. Let’s clarify once more that being Gemini is not about being two-timing or double anything, rather about understanding both sides of almost any given situation whether it concerns

you or others. Being able to emotionally detach yourself from a situation for the sake of clarity can be rather useful in many cases. Mercury, your ruling planet, squares Saturn Rx and Pluto Rx May 1-3, meaning that you may be better off in pausing until the 15th and taking a good look at everything that has taken place in your life this spring; the song by Ronan Keating “you say it best when you say nothing at all” could serve you well. With a Mercury conjunct Uranus in Taurus near by, stir away from gossip around the 5th of this month, misinformation and behind the curtain activity runs rampant. Although you normally are the master of words and wording, this Full Moon on the 18th on Scorpio 27 degree 39′ can bring forth all that has transcribed since Christmas 2014, whether you were wronged by a life or business partner, dealt with substance abuse, yours or someone close to you, or whether you have been hasty, immature, even conniving and wronged others, particularly people that have been supporting you the last five years. Venus in Taurus May 15-24 and in connection with this month’s full moon, should help you deal with a return from your past and get a long awaited closure. If you are having difficulty with decision making, hold off until the 21st when the Sun and Mercury enter your sign, when clearer vision and more detailed information will assist in seeing matters through. Do not hesitate to consult an expert May 12-22, especially regarding a new business plan, and stay alert because Neptune, planet of creativity but also illusions, currently at 18 degrees Pisces, can be quite confusing, down right deceptive, on the 30th of May when it squares Mercury, your ruling planet. Should you get a pleasant surprise like a nice bundle of cash, even a small one, between May 16-31, courtesy of Mars in Cancer, spend some-save some! You know, for a rainy day or month.

Cancer

Surely you have heard the stories about Cancerian sensitivity but have you heard the latest news on Cancerian tenacity? If not, then a quick chat with Pluto and Saturn this May will convince you of the extraordinary resilience these water natives have

mastered since this powerful Plutonian opposition to their sign begun in 2008, (ends in 2023). How transformative and exhausting. Most born before July 3-4 have graduated, the rest are following suit. Saturn joined Pluto Dec. 2017 in this powerfully interactive aspect and although still in opposition, Saturn at 20 degrees 22′ and Pluto at 23 degrees 04′, for those of you that have fought the good fight in all levels, nurtured your family members young and old, supported friends, partners, the new moon on the 4th at 14 degrees 11′ Taurus is about to bring to light the recognition on a job well done!, along with a powerful social network that will help you bring the peace back into your working environment, new friendships and a few old ones that are happy to be your safety net. Neither the delays on agreements and plans, nor the disappointment on relationship issues still pending well into May, can hinder, after the 15th when Mars enters Cancer until July 1, your well deserved story that will start to unfold. Or around the 22nd when Mars sextiles Uranus and a positive nudge forces you to pull your head out of the sand and actually be pleasantly surprised by a good friend or a new flame. This is a good point to pause and remind many of you crabs to not be crabby! Sometimes sensitivity is a self-absorbing state of mind, so stop complaining about your choices in life, (particularly if you are born between the 21-30 June), having children or not, going solo or not, not taking a career plunge or that amazing trip. Forgive those that wronged you, whether they know it or not!, and allow the full moon on the 18th on Scorpio at 27 degree 39′ to make sure you get all the data you need to dot the i’s and cross your t’s so you can successfully avoid possible traps on the 30th with Mercury and Neptune squaring. You can land softly on a beautiful Venus-Saturn trine on the 31st, last day of the month. A good practice for the many soft pillows that follow.

Leo

Is that a meow or a roar i hear? About time you stopped hibernating and remind everyone, especially yourself that the King is very much alive! And May is the month to begin planting the seeds in order to start reaping the fruits of your labor, after Jupiter turns direct on August 11th, 2019. Use this

window in time wisely, collect your thoughts, tap into your amazing organizational skills at work, your team or home, to restructure whatever has come unhinged since the Fall of 2016; incidentally, if you feel that since then and by now life should have been flowing but it is not, despite your best efforts, perhaps there is a greater lesson to be learned, so hopefully you will find the following paragraph constructive. From Apr. 10 to May 3 an ebb on your plans and difficulty in communication is likely. Take your time and read the fine print, beware of behind the scenes discussions on a project, (being thorough and not boisterous will come in handy, as you read on, around the full moon, 18th of May). Therefore use the new moon on the 4th at 14 degrees 11′ Taurus which marks new, more stabilizing beginnings, to turn the light inward-usually the stage is yours and the lights on you!- and learn the difference between pride and ego, generosity in order to receive and generosity in order to give. With jovial Jupiter Rx*, retrograde, well into your birthday, ask experts for help on the above mentioned issue; for most Leos, asking for help is half the battle, so you are ahead of yourself just for trying! This will fortify your ability to handle possible unexpected ,(Uranus in Taurus), news regarding the outcome of a relationship or finances through groups around May 15 with Mercury and Venus in Taurus. With Mars in Cancer on the 16th, express yourself creatively but do not promise more than you can deliver. Have you followed the cautionary tips mentioned above regarding contracts and statements? Great, for this will come in handy during the full moon on the 18th on Scorpio 27 degree 39′. With Mercury in extrovert Gemini after the 22nd embrace the new, social circle, career beginnings, you have worked hard for it and earned it Try to obsess as little as possible end of the month when Mercury opposes Jupiter and with Pluto Rx, instead enjoy what you have during a Venus trine Saturn aspect.

Virgo

Now this is what i dare call the return of the quiet force! Was it 2006 when we last had the pleasure of seeing you as hosts on TV, enjoyed your unique clothes designs or simply your solid company with the well thought through advice? Is 2019, with May at the reigns the mark of your new beginnings?

Perhaps the transition into spring 2019, a season to celebrate rebirth, and up till May 15th, has not been quite what you had anticipated, especially for those of you born before 1980. Virgo is usually the more intellectually flexible of the three earth signs, but health issues, career, family or whatever has thrown you off track the last 13 years is admittedly enough to make anyone timid and skeptical with new beginnings; or perhaps you got so lost in discovering the next big cure or how to end world hunger that the world has simply passed you by!. How can you move forward if you choose to remain tide up to your past?. Why not allow the new moon on the 4th at 14 degrees 11′ Taurus, and Uranus, planet of surprise from Taurus, your fellow sign, help you of open the door so either you can go out there and travel, make new discoveries or allow, perhaps through an upgrade on your technological skills, the new to come in?. The hardships you have endured wrinkled your tidy world and showed you that being picky and judgemental is paralyzing. Like a toxin, nobody wants to touch it, especially you!. Mercury in Taurus May 6-11 helps you cultivate your skills, do remember though to be kind when expressing yourself, especially around children. After the 15th a Venus-Uranus tap dance can bring a fellow eccentric in your path in conjunction with a full moon on the 18th on Scorpio 27 degree 39′. The Moon will also ensure you get information you need towards the end of the month, regarding the quality and substance of people or business propositions; because Neptune, planet of creativity but also illusions, currently at 18 degrees Pisces, can be quite confusing down right deceptive on the 30th of May when it squares Mercury, your ruling planet. A Venus trine Neptune also at the end of the month can help, be however on the lookout for addictions to people, situations or substances.

Libra

Hello beautiful aerialist, are you running into May on high speed, after refueling in April?. Happy to see you on the go, after the jovial Jupiter transit on your Sun Sept. 9, 2016-Oct. 9, 2017. What about lessons learned before 2016, hopefully they became favorite posts on your wall. In case some are by now a bit of

a blur allow a refresher because May can be a month of opportunity, so do what you do best; keeping the balance between personal relationship/family and work. In the past you were torn between money and money. Where did this take you before 2016, specifically during the awakening transit of Saturn in Libra Oct. 30, 2009- Apr. 7, 2010 and July 22, 2010- Oct. 5, 2012? Away from your family and from your true self. Please use the time between the New Moon on the 4th at 14 degrees 11′ Taurus and the Full Moon on the 18th on Scorpio 27 degree 39′ to loosen the grip;wanting the best for your family is not the same as forcing a loved one to see things your way and follow the course that you are setting for their life. Have your grown emotionally?. Prove it by keeping away from scheming. With Mercury trine Saturn on the 16th and Pluto on the 18th, if you have been wronged, in May you are finally speaking out; filter your statements and get bonus information that help you seal a new deal or let go of a past desire that has been holding you back for a long while. Whether you run a household, a business or run for office, (you are a master multitask-er after all!), after Mercury and the Sun meet on the 21st, your bank account can get a boost thanks to better trading conditions. Mars enters Cancer on the 16th, right before the full moon, and shifts your attention to family or inheritance issues that could overwhelm towards the end of May. If you are in any therapy program adhere to your carer’s instructions and avoid improvising due to impatience or impulse. Venus in Taurus 15-24 is in its natural element and your ruling planet, so tap into the beauty and grace it has bestowed upon you and enjoy your new relationship or win over the true and tested one. Plan that trip you both wanted for so long!. Do not allow flatterers and ‘do-gooders’ to throw smoke on your horizon when Mercury squares Neptune and opposes Jupiter end of May. Allow Venus trine Saturn on the 31st to help you secure your personal relationships.

Scorpio

Greetings you fearless, super sensitive creature. blessed are those of you who can understand fully what the month of May brings for your sign. Between Oct. 2012- Dec. 2014 and June 2015- Sept. 15, Saturn’s transit taught you some hard lessons indeed. We all, some more than others, dislike

loosing control but a traditional Scorpio hates loosing control. That Saturn transit was particularly sobering and should have been a catalyst in helping you come to terms with this reality and consequently your own mortality. Intense conversations with a business or life partner in the beginning of May are followed by the New Moon on the 4th at 14 degrees 11′ Taurus asking you to clarify your intentions and to map a clear life course. Simple but not easy, since over the last 6 years many of you have suffered betrayal from people you trusted, rejection, loss of a loved one, or a job you loved. The Jupiter transit however between Oct. 10, 2017 to Nov. 8, 2018 gave so many Scorpios opportunities to refresh their social network, get recognition for a job well done, even luck through inheritance or partnership. Still, why are so many of you stuck in a rut?. Before answering, let us look at some May transits; Uranus in Taurus will happily jolt you out of your comfort zone on all levels. Mercury in Taurus May 6-21 helps getting your point across especially the first days of the transit. Venus in Aries, May 8-15, supports business plans. Venus enters Taurus on the 16th and helps you find solutions for a personal matter. Mars enters Cancer the 16th, charging your battery right up!. The Full Moon on the 18th on Scorpio 27 degree 39′ helps you with partnership concerns, organize small getaways and make up with a loved one or family member. Still stuck in a rut?. The answer lies within you; have you taken accountability for last year’s mistakes, like underestimating your job or coworkers?. Were you too harsh and demanding with your children or partner?; your employees?. Perhaps cruel to a friend who cared enough to tell you the truth about the error of your ways. Conclusion?. The month of May can be what you want it to be; let go of the old, embrace the new and unexpected. On the 22nd a Mars trine Uranus brings such eccentricity to your doorstep or jolts you into, a long awaited, action as you tie up loose ends. Stay alert around the 30th as Mercury squares Neptune and deception regarding finances is lurking about until the 31st when Mercury opposes Jupiter {Rx). However, the same day Venus across your Sun trines Saturn and helps you get stability in love and money. Last tip; You get more bees with honey.

Sagittarius

How have you been of late luminous child of Jupiter? With your father planet on and by your side from Nov. 8, 2018 through Dec. 2, 2019 you must have a few reasons to celebrate. Even if you are not yet fully recovered from the knock-out punch by Saturn around Christmas 2014, the month of May

helps you set the stage in order to solidify a new job or promotion, a move to a new home or country, rekindle with an old flame or a chance meeting with a new one, events that have been taking shape since spring/summer 2018. This Spring has been tumultuous, like a move to a new house, exciting yet exhausting; packing, unpacking, keeping this, tossing that and in the end it always costs more than anticipated!. As your read on, please keep in mind that Jupiter is retrograde (Rx) since April 10, meaning that although its auspicious transit continues, you may be experiencing delays that test your patience and add fuel to your fire!. Although you can not resist a good debate, May 1-3, is not the time to do so. Hyperbole can be the mother of destruction. Use the time frame between the New Moon on the 4th at 14 degrees 11′ Taurus and the Full Moon on the 18th on Scorpio 27 degree 39′, for undercover negotiations, collecting information and putting together contracts and legal forms. On the same day Venus conjunct Uranus brings forth the unexpected. Embrace the new or at least keep an open mind. At this point you want to focus on your personal life, which feels like it has been slipping through your fingers for quite some time now, so you may be unable to resist pouring your heart out around the 21st; do your best to put it on hold and keep a clear head until the end of May. Patience is not one of your many virtues, and in May 6-11 your mercurial mind may produce some cruel and unkind comebacks during a debate. Do not do that. Nobody likes a know-it-all. This way Venus will be in a position during May 16- 24 to help you remove some obstacles and bring you closer to your goal. Also on the 16th Mars enters Cancer until the end of the month and into June, speeding up events that bring extra money through family, a close friend or indirectly from a tax deduction or an investment. Those of you that want to ask for money, try around the 22nd, when Mars trines Uranus. Do not be your normal hasty self May 30th, Neptune can set traps on contracts/ agreements. Stay in shape. Loose weight. Now.

Capricorn

How does it feel soaring again on new heights for the restless, hard working being that you are?!. Transformation is a well suited word in your case, slowly but steadily occurring since 2008 with Pluto entering your sign. Total overhaul can be added to the mix here since Saturn, your ruling planet,

joined Pluto in December 2017, helping you set a new precedent. Here you probably expect to read about your career advancement, success in your industry or organization. This part of your story is slowly but steadily unfolding with help from your ruler, Saturn Rx, with limitations to protect you from your over-impulsive self; however, the word ‘precedent’ was a trap, because i am referring to your humanitarian side and advancement in fields of global and collective concern!. Uranus, planet of sudden changes in, friendly to your Sun, Taurus, is here to stay for seven years and has already begun vibrating right under your steady feet, bringing to the surface your creativity and altruistic essence. Before i give you one last tip on your humanitarian side, let us look at what transpires in May. If it was impossible for you to hold back on what you said and how you said it end of April and May 1-3, use the two weeks between the New Moon on the 4th at 14 degrees 11′ Taurus and the Full Moon on the 18th on Scorpio 27 degree 39′ to reorganize paperwork related to either legal issues, tax forms, your financial portfolio and to make amends where it is due before the end of May, when emotions can boil over. Capricorns that have had two Saturn returns, meaning 60+, grab the chance and accept or extend an apology from or to a family member, especially your children. Being cruel to be kind has not served you well if it pushed away your family, right?. Uranus will also jolt you out of a steady or long lasting partnership or marriage; take care to ease out of it, or the situation will become unhinged, and its affects will be felt for a long time. It will also be fueled by Mars in Cancer across your Sun after the 16th and the rest of the month. With Venus in friendly Taurus from May 16 to June 8, enjoy a new relationship/partnership but take baby steps. Take care of your health, but do not obsess with Pluto Rx. Last but definitely not least, your humanitarian tip for May, that will be analyzed further in June; Martin Luther King, born Jan. 15, 1929, a true humanitarian, an inspirational human being with true leadership skills. Yes, that is your core essence Capricorn, if the world can be saved, a Capricorn will do it. Food for thought.

Aquarius

Hello you freedom loving, unpredictable citizen of the universe, can i lure you back on our planet for a bit to share some earthy news with you about the month of May, last month of spring and just like the season, time for growth. The entrance of your ruling planet Uranus in Taurus March 6, 2019 marks

the beginning of an new era and fresh start. This in simple terms means that you can keep saving the mara in Patagonia but this time around you can have the money to back you up, as Taurus is all about money and banks. Incidentally the, admittedly not so many, Aquarians in the banking industry should be particularly cautious, especially towards the end of May, as information received is deceitful. The month begins with discussions regarding finances, property or inheritance; you may not be able to come to an agreement or make your point clearly, -with Mercury in Taurus a rather fixed state of mind rules-, in between the New Moon on the 4th at 14 degrees 11′ Taurus and the Full Moon on the 18th on Scorpio 27 degree 39′. Still, unexpected good news may come your way. With Saturn (Rx) retrograde in Capricorn all month and opposing Mars entering Cancer on the 16th, the past knocks on your door, so issues with family or a person that was family to you, needs your attention. Aquarians born between 1932-1955, should take a hard look at what they hold most dear, their money or children. Many have wronged their offspring financially or with parental absence, back in 2004, 2006, 2013, 2015, 2018, an oxymoron for the most altruistic Sun Sign. Those of you in this group will have a chance to make amends and apologize through your actions, this May 21-22, when Mercury and Sun meet in Gemini and conversations may flow a little easier; Some may take a productive trip, others may come-up with an invention or innovative idea; Neptune will help stimulate, yet do take care around May 9, Sun sextile Neptune and May 30-31, misinformation or even intentional deception are present. Happy that so many of you will be able to regroup and get back your groove and fun disposition. ‘Whatever you are, be a good one’, Abraham Lincoln, fellow Aquarian.

Pisces

With Neptune, your father planet and ruler of the oceans well settled on your Sun and first solar house since February 2012, it comes as no surprise that this May and after a lengthy period of disorientation, you are ready for your big come back!. Well, almost. You are one of the most intuitive and in some cases

psychic healer of the twelve zodiac signs, so if your latest dreams or visions gave you the feeling or image that your life is about to change, I tend to agree. However, it is not time just yet to throw caution to the wind, and Jupiter (Rx) retrograde through your MC, known as mid-heaven, the highest point of your solar chart, calculated risks are advised. In May, Uranus in Taurus helps you think out of the box,and Mercury also in Taurus May 6-20 solidifies thoughts and plans. Again, slow steady steps are the order of the month. Venus, did you guess?!, in Taurus after the 15th offers pleasant moments with friends, partners. All this takes place between the New Moon on the 4th at 14 degrees 11′ Taurus and the Full Moon on the 18th on Scorpio 27 degree 39′. People around you, not necessarily your direct environment, can be operating behind the scenes, with hidden agendas so stay alert; being dreamy, romantic and giving is great but not at your expense. Do all Pisces mean well? “The road to hell was paved with good intentions”, by Madonna, says it all. Whether some of you have been deliberately plotting to get people to hum at your beat so you can get what you want, or driven by illusions of grandeur, like some politicians do, stop. Pluto, planet of what is hidden beneath Rx, Saturn, planet of limitations and lessons learned Rx, even jovial Jupiter Rx on your Mid-heaven will not allow you to sweep this one under the rug. So come clean, while you can. In case you are wondering, hoping to use this astro tip to slide through the cracks, will only make matters worst. Honesty is indeed your best policy. Cultivate your creativity, spirituality and care, for after the 21st when both Mercury and Sun enter Gemini, your will be in a position to handle family and partnership issues by operating on a higher frequency. Mars in Cancer, after the 16th, gives you an edge, so focus on a new project, even practical matters, you can see them through!.

*Saturn retrogrades April 29 to Sept. 18, Pluto retrogrades Apr. 24 to Oct. 3 , Jupiter retrogrades April 10 to Aug. 11.
