Your Love Horoscopes for the Week of May 18th

by Maria DeSimone

 

A New Moon in Taurus on Monday can set the stage for new and exciting sensual delights. The problem? Communication. On the very same day, Mercury will turn retrograde and remains out of phase until June 11. Do your best to navigate choppy communication waters with your partner. On Thursday, Venus will oppose Pluto and this can intensify love. Still, be careful … fated attraction can easily get out of hand. Obsession, possession, jealousy and manipulation are always lurking in the shadow of Pluto. Don’t go there.

 

Aries Horoscope
Aries Horoscope (Mar 21 – Apr 19)

There’s plenty to talk about this week with your lover. The problem is that he or she might not understand everything that you have to say. The ruler of your romance sector, the Sun, will enter chatty Gemini on Thursday but earlier in the week, Mercury will have already turned retrograde in the same part of your chart. Translation? This won’t be the time to make vital decisions about your love life. Go with the flow and see where that leads you.

 

Taurus Horoscope
Taurus Horoscope (Apr 20 – May 20)

A bright New Moon in your sign on Monday will set the stage for a personal fresh start. This can involve your romantic life but it can just as easily be another area if love isn’t your main focus these days. Still, if you want something in love, now is your time to plant those seeds. On Thursday, an intense conversation about matters of the heart might be more than you bargained for.

 

Gemini Horoscope
Gemini Horoscope (May 21 – Jun 20)

This might not be the smoothest week for you. On Monday, Mercury will turn retrograde in your sign, making it difficult for you to clearly express yourself. Take your time and be sure to do what you can to clarify your thoughts — especially to your partner. The two of you might have a major disagreement about a financial matter on Thursday. Then on Friday, you might feel that your partner is dimming your light a little too much.

 

Cancer Horoscope
Cancer Horoscope (June 21 – Jul 22)

If you’re looking to make new friends, you’re in luck. On Monday, a New Moon will fall in the area of your chart that rules your social life, opening the door wide. If single, this will be a good time to consider Internet dating or to install a dating app on your phone. If you’re in a relationship, Thursday might be extra intense. You might feel as if you are constantly making compromises in your relationship and if so, there might be a situation that leads to a breaking point. Something has to change.

 

Leo Horoscope
Leo Horoscope (Jul 23 – Aug 22)

You might not have the easiest time communicating with pals this week. If you wanted to have a conversation with one of your friends, you might not exactly like the outcome of your dialogue. Know that until June 11, it’ll be easy to experience mishaps in communication and that it’ll affect your social life most dramatically. In other news, on Thursday, you might finally reach your limit about how much energy you’re giving to a crush who just isn’t into you. Good.

 

Virgo Horoscope
Virgo Horoscope (Aug 23 – Sep 22)

Your love life might be sticky — or just plain out of control. On one hand, expect plenty of passion. Feelings can easily go to an extreme and there’s no such thing as middle ground. On the other hand however, you might start to feel that your lover has more control over your life than you’re comfortable with. This might express itself strongly in your social life and your personal dreams. Don’t give away who you are just because you’ve given away your heart.

 

Libra Horoscope
Libra Horoscope (Sep 23 – Oct 22)

On Monday, a New Moon will fall in the most intimate area of your chart — the 8th House of Sex and Deep Sharing. This can set the stage for you to have an erotic encounter with someone. He or she might be your partner if you’re in a relationship, but if you’re single, this is a rife set up for a hot and steamy sexual indulgence. In fact, on Thursday the power of attraction will be a major theme and you could find a commanding VIP irresistible.

 

Scorpio Horoscope
Scorpio Horoscope (Oct 23 – Nov 21)

There’s definitely news for you in the relationship department since a promising New Moon will fall in your partnership sector on Monday. This can set the stage for a fresh start between you and your mate — especially if you have felt as though things are getting stale. Now you’ll have an opportunity to liven up your relationship using your senses as a guide. Have a conversation with your sweetheart on Thursday. Be willing to go to the depths in order to reach the heights in love.

 

Sagittarius Horoscope
Sagittarius Horoscope (Nov 22 – Dec 21)

This week, matters of the heart will likely be more work than pleasure. First, on Monday, Mercury will turn retrograde in your partnership sector. Until June 11, this signals that you and your mate have some work to do in the communication department. Take a “roll your sleeves up” approach and be willing to do the work necessary to improve things between you and your mate. That will be vitally important on Friday.

 

Capricorn Horoscope
Capricorn Horoscope (Dec 22 – Jan 19)

Love potential is all over your chart this week! First, a glittering New Moon in your romance sector on Monday can be all you need to help you meet someone special. Of course, you’ll have to do your part and make an effort to be social. If you do, the Universe is willing and ready to reward you. If you’re in a relationship, Thursday will be a day to remember. The hold you have on your lover can’t be underestimated. Use your power wisely.

 

Aquarius Horoscope
Aquarius Horoscope (Jan 20 – Feb 18)

If you find yourself thinking more about an ex this week, don’t be surprised. The urge to stalk his or her Facebook page, drive past his or her house, or even send a friendly text are all possibilities. If you find yourself having an actual conversation with your old flame, the two of you might be very tempted to give things a second try. Don’t rush into this — no matter how enticing it is. There’s a reason you broke up in the first place. Remember it.

 

Pisces Horoscope
Pisces Horoscope (Feb 19 – Mar 20)

If you’re in a relationship, it’s possible that you and your partner will not see eye-to-eye on a family matter. There could be a decision you need to make together concerning your living situation or about a relative. If so, it’ll be hard to reach an agreement. If you can delay this conversation until later next month, that would be ideal. If you’re dating someone casually, one of your friends might try to interfere with your love life on Thursday. Set boundaries.
