Falling in love with someone doesn’t happen every day. And marriage? That’s an even rarer occurrence. But BOTH of these life changing events can be predicted in the birth chart! Of course, it’s up to you and your free will whether or not you’ll actually open your heart or walk down the aisle, but astrologically speaking, an astrologer can smell these cycles from a mile away.
I’ll try my best to put this in terms that a beginning Astrology student can understand. Every single arena of life has a place in the birth chart. Falling in love is the domain of the 5th house in your birth chart. There may or may not be planets in the 5th house but that doesn’t matter – when your 5th house or its ruling planet is triggered in a positive way by planets in the current sky, then love is most certainly in the air.
Now, look to the sign that is on the cusp (or beginning) of your 5th house and find out what planet rules that sign (see the chart below).

Once you know which planet rules the sign of your 5th house, find where that planet is in your particular birth chart. This planet, when triggered in a positive aspect in the current skies (a conjunction, sextile or trine) will put you in a cycle of love.
Using my chart as an example, I have the sign Leo on the 5th house cusp. That means my 5th house is ruled by the Sun. My Sun is placed in Taurus in the 1st house of my chart. So I know that whenever the Sun in Taurus is receiving positive aspects from any outer planet in the sky (Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, Neptune or Pluto) that I am in a positive love cycle. Why only consider the outer planets? Because the inner or personal planets move too quickly to matter much when you are making a major life prediction. For the major events of your life to occur, the outer planets must be transiting one of your ruling planets, personal planets, or an angle in your birth chart.
So how can I use this example to illustrate falling in love? In Astrology, the best way to predict the future is to look at your past.
The Astrology connected to my 5th house and the ruler of my 5th house is uncanny! In September 1991 I met the man I would marry, but initially, I didn’t even like him. It took a couple of months to fall in love, and the Astrology corroborates why. When we met, transiting Jupiter and Venus were both in my 5th House of True Love, but Venus was in a retrograde cycle. Venus stationed direct two days after we met and this is probably the reason why I decided to give things a second chance. Sure enough, we started to date and within a few short months I realized at 17 years old that I had fallen in love with a soul mate. It hit me suddenly. I went from not liking this man at all to gradually getting to know him and starting to really like him to then, all of a sudden, realizing I was completely in love.
So what do you think was going on with my Sun, the ruler of my 5th house? At that time Neptune, the planet of dreams, and Uranus, the planet of sudden surprises, were trine my Sun! And Jupiter was moving through my 5th house when we met, then went back into my 5th house when I realized I had fallen in love…
In fact Jupiter, the planet of expansion and blessings, was involved in a positive way to either my 5th house or its ruler BOTH times I’ve fallen in love. You will find in your own chart the same is true for when you fall in love, because the job of Jupiter is to open your heart. Yes, underline this sentence. Say it out loud: A significant love opportunity cycle can be predicted by a happy Jupiter transit to your 5th house or its ruling planet! So pay attention to when Jupiter is making its once-every-12-year visit through your 5th House of True Love or is making a conjunction, sextile or trine to your 5th house ruling planet.
Using this method I can predict when I might fall in love again. In November 2015, Jupiter will make a trine to my Sun, ruler of my 5th house. Then in March 2016, there will be a second hit of Jupiter trine my Sun, while Pluto will also trine my Sun! If I meet someone special during these cycles I will certainly tell you about it!

We are especially sensitive today, and we may have difficulty coming to decisions. We can be hesitant, uncertain about whether to pursue our desires or fulfill our responsibilities. Enthusiasm can wane temporarily, or can be up and down. Delays are possible, but might lead to important edits and adjustments.
The Moon is in Virgo all day (until Wednesday, June 24th, at 1:40 AM).
The Moon is waxing and in its Waxing Crescent phase.
Mercury is direct and in its shadow until it reaches 13 Gemini 09 on June 27th.
Venus is direct and is in its pre-retrograde shadow today.

The final Jupiter-Uranus trine of this Jupiter in Leo transit comes exact today, and we might resolve problems that free us from limiting attitudes or situations. This is a time of breakthroughs, progress, and liberation.
•The Moon is in Virgo all day (until Wednesday, June 24th, at 1:40 AM).
•The Moon is waxing and in its Waxing Crescent phase.
•Mercury is direct and in its shadow until it reaches 13 Gemini 09 on June 27th.
•Venus is direct and enters its pre-retrograde shadow today.
•The Sun spends its first full day in Cancer (the Sun transits Cancer from June 21-July 22).
Lucky breaks, confused thoughts, and an ability to fight for your family in a way no one wants to mess with. Yep, that’s what’s in store this week. Read all about it!
On Monday Jupiter, the planet of gifts and expansion, will be at a gorgeous trine to Uranus, the planet of sudden change. Since Jupiter is linking up in such a happy way to Uranus you can anticipate a positive boost of luck in your life. Whatever the details of your personal situation are, this lucky break will appear to come out of nowhere and in an instant. Savor it!
On Tuesday, it’ll be one of those days when you might want to pretend you have laryngitis. Mercury will be square Neptune, confusing thoughts and prompting you to fumble a lot more with your words. Since your mind may be cloudier than usual, it’s not recommended that you sign contracts or make a vital decision on this day. Mercury connected to Neptune is far better suited for activities that require your imagination — or to simply check out in fantasyland.
On Wednesday Mars will enter Cancer, the sign of home and hearth. Mars is the planet of war and assertive drive, and now he’ll be in a watery, emotional sign he’s not exactly comfy in. The good news of Mars in Cancer is that you’ll feel motivated to connect more with your clan and to work on any home-related repairs. The not-so-good news is that your fighting instinct won’t have a direct route, and as a result passive-aggressive behavior might run rampant. Do your best to keep it in check and if you see it from others, call them out on it.

Saturn has moved back into the sign of Scorpio, where it will transit until it re-enters Sagittarius on September 17th.
A New Moon occurs tomorrow.

Tonight, Venus semi-squares Mars, suggesting a small or annoying challenge getting our needs met straightforwardly, but the friction can be interesting, too. The Taurus Moon does fairly well today. The Sun and Mars are moving towards a conjunction, exact towards midday tomorrow, quickening the pace and bringing more insistence to our desires.

It’s a week to open your mind, your heart, and your faith! Things are happening on a grand scale now … are you ready?
Are you willing to ask the big questions in life, even if you don’t find an answer? That’s the theme of Tuesday’s Full Moon in Sagittarius. Remember that in your life it’s the journey that matters, not the destination. Still, your internal GPS might be slightly confused thanks to this Full Moon being square Neptune and opposite Mercury, now in retrograde. Old belief systems and modes of thinking are likely to come up for review, and it’ll be time to discard what’s no longer working in your reality.
On Friday, love planet Venus enters Leo. Venus in Leo promises romance on a grand scale so now, you’ll settle for nothing less than lavish expressions of love. Mars will be at a supportive sextile to Jupiter on the same day giving you the ability to put your optimism to work for you. This will definitely be a sexy day!
On Saturday the tone goes from carefree romance to relationship substance. Venus will trine Saturn and if you’re attached, you’ll feel quite secure in your union. Financially, a cautious gamble looks like it’ll pay off, and a creative gift put into practice can be financially profitable for a long time to come.

Venus and the Sun in difficult aspect with Neptune this morning remind us to consider ways to satisfy our spiritual needs. It’s important to discern between fact and fiction now.
The Moon is in Scorpio all day (until Monday, June 1st, at 2:39 PM).
The Moon is waxing and in its Waxing Gibbous phase.
Mercury is retrograde. (Mercury is retrograde from May 18 to June 11 in the sign of Gemini).

There can be some very necessary indecision today, particularly early on with Mercury and Neptune forming a square. Early on the 31st, the Sun will form a square to Neptune as well, and Venus will form a sesquiquadrate to Neptune. These aspects can be temporarily disorienting if we’ve been overlooking our spiritual, creative, and imaginative needs, as we can feel some discontent and uncertainty. This slowdown is confusing at first, but necessary as it gives us a chance to discover what we may have been missing. It’s a difficult time to get clarity, and if we push too hard in this respect, it can be a discouraging time. However, we might consider that solid, definite answers are not necessary for us at the moment. Letting go of the need to control, itemize, and rationalize just a little can help us tremendously at this time.
Later today, influences that stir creativity and resourcefulness involve Mercury biquintile Pluto and both bodies quintile Vesta, as well as a trine between Mercury and Ceres. There can be dedication to, or renewed interest in, a project or topic. Research can be effective.
The Moon is in Libra all day (until Saturday, May 30th, at 5:33 AM).
The Moon is void from 4:20 PM forward (until 5:33 AM tomorrow).
The Moon is waxing and in its First Quarter phase until 4:06 PM / in its Waxing Gibbous phase from 4:06 PM forward).
Mercury is retrograde. (Mercury is retrograde from May 18 to June 11 in the sign of Gemini).

The Moon is in busy Virgo all day, and with Mercury and Mars moving towards an alignment, we’ll be especially motivated to get things done. However, we can be a little critical or insensitive in our communications now.

The Moon is void from 10:21 PM forward (until 5:41 PM tomorrow).
The Moon is waxing and in its First Quarter phase.
Mercury is retrograde. (Mercury is retrograde from May 18 to June 11 in the sign of Gemini).

The Moon is in Cancer until 5:42 PM.
The Moon is void until 5:42 PM (since yesterday at 8:36 PM).
The Moon is in Leo from 5:42 PM forward (until Monday, May 25th, at 4:51 AM).

Today, Pluto is a major player, and fears, jealousies, and issues of power and control can emerge in possibly uncomfortable ways. Bringing fears into the light, however, is a wonderful step towards healing.

There’s not so much one central theme this week in the sky as there is “something for everyone.” Read all about how to navigate what could be complicated energy, while learning how to maximize the goodness..
Monday, May 18: New Moon in Taurus; Mercury Retrograde in Gemini
On Monday, a gorgeous New Moon in Taurus will help you begin to develop one of your personal talents with confidence. This lunation can also bring financial changes, but you’ll have to initiate them. Make a plan and stick to it over the next couple of weeks. Also, take time to reconnect with Mother Earth and honor the part of you that IS attached to this physical world we live in. What soothes your senses? THAT is what you need to do this week.
Also on Monday, Mercury will turn retrograde in Gemini and remains retrograde until June 11. This can be tricky terrain to navigate since it’ll bring about all the usual communication mishaps. Gemini is ruled by Mercury so there’s a double dose of frustration potential this time around. Follow all the usual “dos and don’ts” connected to a Mercury Retrograde phase but remember that this is also a time that can bring blessings. Your mind is forced to slow down now and re-evaluate a specific area in your life. Listen.
Thursday, May 21: Sun in Gemini; Venus opposite Pluto
On Thursday, the Sun enters Gemini to shine an even brighter light on mental pursuits. Love planet Venus will also oppose Pluto on this day. If you decide to make love and not war, it can be quite gratifying. If you choose the warpath however, things might become quite ugly. Issues about controlling money may come up, either in business or your personal life. Handle with care.
Friday, May 22: Sun opposite Saturn in Sagittarius
On Friday, the Sun will oppose Saturn. You might feel blocked from shining your light. See this as an opportunity to prune whatever isn’t working. Instead of allowing any criticism or delay to thwart you, use it to propel you to an even greater level of personal achievement.
