Pisces
The last two months have prepared you for May: the planet Saturn is leaving your own sign to enter into your second house. This rules the financial part of your chart, and you will experience a need to limit yourself over the next couple of years. Put strong foundations in place for your financial future.
Aries
Both Mercury and Venus are moving forwards in your own zodiac sign this month, helping to heal the wounds of the past. This is a transitional month. Your priorities change in terms of new ambitions for the future, which will soon start to manifest in your life.
Taurus
Most of the planets – apart from Pluto – are moving forwards this month, which usually signifies a period of direct planetary energy. For most of you, this is a month when you start to put projects into action that have been waiting in the wings. On 25 May, Saturn moves into your 12th house: there are lessons to be learnt in relation to personal boundaries.
Gemini
Communication is the key for this month, as the planet Mars is travelling in your solar 3rd house. Be direct, by all means, but also take time out to listen to other people’s point of view. Your planetary ruler moves quickly through three signs of the zodiac this month, which indicates a busy month ahead for you.
Cancer
The planet Saturn moves into your solar tenth house on 25 May, where it will remain for the next two and a half years. The next couple of years will be a significant time of development, during which you can really work hard and achieve a lot. Any plans that you start now will bear fruit in two years’ time.
Leo
The planet Mars continues its journey through your own sign, combining assertiveness and the courage of your convictions in order to move life forwards. This is a powerful time to realise your true nature and your basic needs, which should offer a secure emotional grounding to be able to put plans into action.
Virgo
There is a renewed focus on relationships this month, as the planet Saturn has moved out of your 7th house. This should add a lightness and ease in personal expression, meaning that you should feel that you are able to connect with others on a deeper level.
Libra
Your planetary ruler Venus is moving direct in your solar 7th house, ruling relationships. This is a powerful combination, helping you to explore new possibilities and connections. The planet Saturn also enters a new cycle in your seventh house on 25 May: solid foundations are being laid.
Scorpio
The sun shines in the relationship area of your solar chart, while the planet Mars is transiting in your 10th house. This is a busy month: relaunch your career aspirations into new and exciting directions. Saturn moves into your 6th house at the end of the month: a new outlook on how you look after your mind, body and spirit may appear.
Sagittarius
There is a lot of activity this month – in particular, this is because of your planetary ruler Jupiter, which is in the last stages of movement through your 7th house. You also have the planet Saturn moving into your 5th house, allowing spirituality to blossom and affording self-discipline in terms of your creativity.
Capricorn
At the end of this month, Saturn moves into your 4th house, which rules family, the home, and where we feel most comfortable. The next two years will see a lot of duty and responsibility coming your way, but also a steadier ship in terms of your home environment and building for the future.
Aquarius
Aquarians have an unusual way of communicating with others, or certainly of getting their ideas across. At the end of this month, Saturn moves from the financial placement of your chart to the placement of learning. This will increase your awareness of (and help you to be open to) new ideas and inventions.
