On May 2nd, Venus enters Aries, activating your area of partnerships until the 28th. Love will be in the air! It’s a great time to meet someone new if you’re on the lookout, to reconnect and do something special together if you’re in a relationship, and to reconnect with yourself and your needs if you’re coming out of a long commitment.
On May 10th, Mercury goes retrograde in Gemini until June 3rd, and it starts its backwards journey in your area of adventure and spirituality.

On the 22nd, Mercury retrogrades back into Taurus, bringing themes from the previous Eclipse.
Also on May 10th, Jupiter starts a new cycle as it enters Aries until October 28th, joining Venus in activating your area of one-on-one relationships.

On May 16th, the Full Moon Total Lunar Eclipse in Scorpio is happening at 12:14am EST, illuminating your area of resources. Connect with any fears you may have surrounding money and scarcity. Really allow yourself to go in there. Also connect with whatever abundance means to you. Nature is a great reference.
Gemini Season comes rolling in on the 20th, shining a light on your need for freedom until June 21st.

On May 24th, Mars enters Aries, joining Jupiter in your area of partnerships until July 4th, offering you the energy that you need to face yourself and face your lover, bestie or associate. It’s a wonderful placement to be honest with what you desire and to put in the work to fix what needs to be mended within the relationships.
On May 28th, Venus enters Taurus, joining Mercury in your area of sexuality until July 17th. This is a great time to have conversations surrounding each other’s needs in bed. Also a good time to address the things that aren’t working within your collaborations.
May comes to an end with the New Moon in Gemini on the 30th at 7:30am EST, helping you connect with the emotions that keep you from living the kind of freedom and expansion you desire. So much healing will come from just being in touch with your feelings.
