Your Daily Love & Romance Horoscopes for May 27th

Aries

As the Moon makes one of his last visits to your romantic sector before things start to move for the year, you have a chance to listen to your heart and pick up on any important clues and hunches. By this time next month the most romantically charged months of 2012 will be underway, with some clues today for what might lie ahead.

Taurus

The Moon’s return to your romantic sector tomorrow will kick off an important few days on the romantic front and a chance to really fire up your romantic passions. Until then keep an open heart, realising that it’s not your job to tell your heart how it should feel, rather its job to tell you how it feels.

Gemini

As the Moon makes his last visit to your communication sector before a lunar eclipse in your relationship sector in just 8 days time, this gives you a chance to clear the air. The key to turning what is often a wild card on the relationship front into an opportunity to turn things around, is having the communication lines open.

Cancer

As the Sun and Mercury align in an intuitive part of your chart, this gives you a chance to give old feelings being stirred a voice and the past in general, giving you a chance to clear the air. With communication becoming far more important in the future, especially on the relationship front, work today to give the past and unsaid words a voice.

Leo

The closer you get to a lunar eclipse in your romantic sector in just 8 days time, the more you’re likely to sense that something is building and with a tendency to want to jump the gun and take control. Yet this is one time when you need to take your hands off the wheel and let fate take over instead, no matter how scary that might be.

Virgo

On both the romantic and relationship fronts there is a surprising lack of urgency and also a chance to focus more on the big picture. On both fronts it’s now become more about the journey, which will always have ups and downs. So long as you focus on the big picture, any ups and downs along the way will only make your relationships and love life richer.

Libra

There is a sense of synchronicity and of romantic adventure in the air this week, with a chance to challenge your excuses. At the same time that intuitive lunar vibes stimulate the hunches that have the power to put you in the right place at the right time, it’s your heart’s willingness to take a risk that will encourage you to seize the moment.

Scorpio

Throughout what has been a defining few months on the relationship front your relationships have had to compete with a busy focus, but that is life and you can’t put your relationships in a bubble. Work now to prepare your relationships for the real world, where they can’t get 24/7 attention, yet are strong enough that they don’t need it.

Sagittarius

This time last week Venus, planet of love was on her own in your relationship sector and in her first week in retrograde motion was focused exclusively on the past. Now a week on the Sun and Mercury are not only here but they’re aligned, with your eyes and the communication lines now open. All of a sudden you’re able to see where you’ve been and where you’re going.

Capricorn

As Jupiter spends his penultimate weekend in your romantic sector there is a real need to make love a priority. This time last week the Sun, Mercury and Moon were all here to help lucky Jupiter to get things up to speed, but over the last 6 days they all left and it’s time to bring things home. Dare to believe in love the way that it believes in you.

Aquarius

The Moon’s monthly visit to your relationship sector is usually more about wake up calls and drawing your attention to the things you’ve been sweeping under the carpet. But with Venus in retrograde motion in your romantic sector and the Sun and Mercury aligned here, the romantic focus is overwhelming. This is going to make it hard for all but the most obvious relationship wake up calls to get through.

Pisces

With Mars, planet of passion coming into his own in your relationship sector and some of the best relationship weeks of the year stretching out in front of you and new doors about to open on the romantic front, your future is all of a sudden looking up. Maybe the challenges of recent weeks and months was worth it after all, leaving you ready for what’s coming up.

Your Daily General Horoscopes for May 26th

Aries

As you work to bring things home on the income front and up to speed on the work front, take the time to deal with any work/life balance issues, especially as you’re heading into some of the busiest and most driven weeks of the year. While you’re a lot more aware of where the money is and you’re a lot more savvy when it comes to where and how you channel your time and energy, it can’t be at the expense of also having a life.

Taurus

For the second time in as many years but for the last time for another 2 decades, the Sun aligns with the South Node in your income sector and moves into opposition with the North Node in your financial sector. This is likely to create some financial tension, but also the clarity to see things clearly. You’re in the early phase of a period of massive income opportunities, with a few timely wake up calls not going astray.

Gemini

It’s by keeping it real and working to ensure that the communication lines are open, that you’ll turn what could be an intense day on both the personal and relationship fronts, into an opportunity for a breakthrough. You’re just 5 days into your new solar year and already what may have passed as enough, okay or good enough in the past is no longer going to cut it. This is destined to be a phenomenal year for you and the bar has been raised across the board.

Cancer

You have already begun the wind down of your current solar year and your focus is already shifting inwards. It’s because heart and mind are also engrossed in this and is giving you access to a clear sense of hindsight and foresight that a lot of things are starting to make sense. If you find that you need to spend more time alone and in contemplation, don’t feel that you’re losing your edge, for you have begun a valuable period of re evaluation.

Leo

Over the course of the last 5 days first the Sun and then Mercury left your career sector and moved to a more social part of your chart and as a result the dynamics of your life have shifted dramatically. Until now your professional life has overwhelmed everything else, yet as it eases back there is a need to both hold onto your professional edge while embracing this more social era. It’s by listening to your instincts that you’ll get the balance right.

Virgo

The Moon’s return to an intuitive part of your chart today is a case of good timing, for it comes just as any work/life balance pressures are likely to come to a head. You’re in the early days of a phenomenal professional comeback and turnaround and your instincts will be telling you that this is important. Yet these very forces go head to head with forces on the home front today, with a chance to look behind what’s pushing any buttons and why.

Libra

As the Moon wraps up his last visit to your career sector before things start to move from early next month, hold onto the professional instincts this leaves you with and to any buttons this pushed. It’s any work/life balance issues that have come to a head over the last few days that you’re able to look back on and get a better understanding of, while you still have time to tweak things before life becomes more professionally focused again.

Scorpio

Just 5 days after the Sun returned to your financial sector and since the solar eclipse on the same day not only opened new doors but shone the light on the road ahead, he reaches a point today where there might be some intensity or even some financial pressure. This is simply forces on the income and financial fronts bumping into each other, with some jostling required to get the right fit and balance.

Sagittarius

You’ve reached a point in the year where relationship forces are already starting to dominate and this will only increase over the coming weeks, with a call to work now to ensure that you have the right balance between your personal and relationship needs. While you need to invest into your relationships what you need back you also need to remain true to yourself. If you neglect to look after you, both you and your relationships will eventually suffer.

Capricorn

It is hard to believe that the Sun only returned to your work sector 5 days ago, but since then the Moon has been and gone, you’ve experienced a solar eclipse and Mercury has returned, giving you the intellectual savvy to work smarter. With the doors to second chances already open and even more new doors due to open in the coming weeks, you’ve reached a point where you need to slow down and just take it all in.

Aquarius

As the Moon wraps up his last visit to your work sector before the first round of planetary activity for the year, hold onto the intuitive insights and hunches this leaves you with, without feeling tempted to over think things. You have another 13 days before new doors open and while you have enough insight to start lining up at the right doors, you won’t know more than you do now before they actually open.

Pisces

Just 9 days before a lunar eclipse in your career sector is destined to bring anything currently building on the professional front to a head or to a tipping or turning point, a mix of developments today give you a chance to start lining up. On one hand the Moon’s return to your work sector will sharpen your instincts and provide some timely hunches and clues, while some work/life balance pressure provides some timely wake up calls and a chance to tweak any balance issues.

Your Daily Love & Romance Horoscopes for May 26th

Aries

After so much focus on your relationship and especially on working to ensure that the communication lines are open, it’s the Moon that offers some light relief today and the timing is spot on. It’s the Moon’s return to your romantic sector today that sets the scene for a romantically charged weekend, especially if you listen to and follow your heart.

Taurus

While the second half of 2012 is destined to become more relationship focused, the spirit of romance will never entirely die down, especially if you’re willing to engage your romantic passions now. There is a call for a more fearless approach to love, refusing to hold back out of fear of failure.

Gemini

Don’t be surprised or alarmed by any relationship pressure today, but don’t ignore it either. It’s today that the Sun reaches a point where he’s challenging your relationship intentions and providing some timely reality checks and wake up calls. Refuse to sweat the small stuff or to stick your head in the sand.

Cancer

Because Venus, planet of love has put her return to your sign on hold, not returning until August, this has given you more time to both make peace with old ghosts and to prepare for some major romantic developments in the second half of the year. One of the key areas of preparing is working on your sense of confidence, which is more important than you realise.

Leo

Chances are the pressure and doubts you may have been feeling earlier in the week will return today, a little sharper but also in a way that is more transparent. This gives you a chance to look behind what’s pushing any buttons, creating any doubts or roadblocks and establish why, aware that you can’t change what you can’t see.

Virgo

You’re in the early days of a massive professional resurgence and you have already passed what you would normally expect, with even more on the way. Already you need to be protecting your personal life, doing what you can to address any work/life balance issues and to create the right boundaries and priorities.

Libra

Normally Venus, planet of love will spend just under 4 weeks in an adventurous part of your chart, creating both a desire and an opportunity to move out of a romantic rut. This year Venus is here for 4 months and she’s not taking no for an answer, even opening the door to second chances and an opportunity to make up for lost time.

Scorpio

Over the course of the last 5 days the Sun, Moon and Mercury have all left your relationship sector and the love gods have put all their cards on the table. Even the Moon won’t return to your relationship sector before Jupiter leaves, but with luck still on your side it’s up to you now to invest everything you can into creating something sustainable.

Sagittarius

While you have Venus, planet of love in retrograde motion in your relationship sector and therefore focused on the past and the Sun and Mercury in direct motion and therefore focused on the future, they’re more united than this might seem. For they are in fact all moving towards each other, giving you a sense that something special is coming together.

Capricorn

As the Moon leaves your relationship sector he wouldn’t be doing his job if this didn’t push some buttons, yet over the last few days this has provided the wake up calls needed to ensure you’re not asleep at the wheel. With new doors due to open on the relationship front in just 9 days time, pay attention to all wake up calls, not just those you want to hear.

Aquarius

As the Moon returns for his monthly visit to your relationship sector he’s met by a wall of overwhelming romantic forces, which he has to fit around. While this will shift some of your focus to your relationships the forces now at work on the romantic front are just too strong, giving you a chance to inject more romance into your relationships.

Pisces

As the Moon wraps up his last visit to your romantic sector in just 13 days time, he’ll be leaving you wanting more, which is what will keep you awake and alert. With the most active romantic months of the year less than 2 weeks away you can’t afford to be asleep at the wheel, with a chance also to deal with any work life balance issues.

Daily Cosmic Calendar for May 26th

Upward and onward! There should be little hesitation going on during this freewheeling Saturday. The Moon in Leo forms a constructive and creative, 60-degree link with the Sun in Gemini (1:42AM PDT). Adding excitement and stimulation to the psychic atmosphere is a flowing trine between the Moon and Uranus in fire signs (5:45AM PDT). This could be a banner day for antique hunters and collectible aficionados as estate sales, auctions and art fairs look promising. Your productivity quotient is ready to soar into the stratosphere as the Moon parallels Ceres (12:26PM PDT). Anytime Ceres receives the good-housekeeping seal of approval from the Moon, there is an extra emphasis on eating more nutritious foods and improving your diet. Find time to let your inner child run the show under the happy energy-field sustained by Leo Moon. Attend a piano recital, musical concert or new film showing at your local theater. Be prepared to receive the incoming tide of cosmic seed-ideas – eager to enter and simultaneously enlighten human minds – as the Sun-Mercury Superior Conjunction happens on Sunday morning.

Your Daily Horoscopes for May 25th

We think that more data brings us closer to the truth today, but it’s challenging to synthesize all the information. Clever Mercury in noisy Gemini enables us to handle the overload, even if there are unresolved contradictions. However, Mercury’s conflicting square with surreal Neptune fuzzes out facts while the sensitive Cancer Moon encourages intuition over analysis. Clarity begins to return as the Moon slips into expressive Leo at 6:11 pm EDT.

Aries Horoscope (Mar 21 – Apr 19)

Sometimes you’re so confident that you have absolute faith in a wildly unrealistic idea. Ironically, reality seems to encourage you to turn up your volume even higher now. Be careful; if you’re in need of a reality check, someone may come along and pull the plug to teach you a lesson. Instead of responding defensively today, be quiet and pay attention to your own feelings. Rushing off to start another project will only distract you from what you need to learn in the present moment.

Taurus Horoscope (Apr 20 – May 20)

You may struggle with your self-esteem today, especially if you receive mixed messages about your work from your boss. You aren’t clear about what is expected of you and you might just want to sidestep the whole issue. However, it’s healthier to talk about your concerns with coworkers or friends. Once you make some sense out of the situation you’ll be able to keep moving forward.

Gemini Horoscope (May 21 – Jun 20)

Your current indecision is a symptom of a deep uncertainty about your goals. You may be quite confused, yet others cannot see the crossed signals you’re receiving from within your own subconscious. Pretending that you have answers will only alienate you further from those who could be allies now. Find the courage to be honest today; revealing your vulnerability to a trusted friend can be a catalyst to deepen a relationship and bring clarity back into your life.

Cancer Horoscope (June 21 – Jul 22)

You feel a flood of powerful emotions washing over you today with the Moon back in your watery sign. The waves of feeling are strong enough to take you for a ride, whether or not you’re a willing passenger. There is nothing to be gained by fighting the currents or trying to control your changing moods. Go with the flow, allowing the tides to take you where they will.

Leo Horoscope (Jul 23 – Aug 22)

Although you might be sparkling on the surface, there’s something brewing today underneath your apparent display of warmth. Your insecurities are gnawing at you from within and they just won’t leave you alone now. Your sixth sense tells you that something is preventing you from living up to your potential, yet you cannot quite put your finger on where this feeling is coming from. Don’t run from the truth; seek clarity by practicing meditation or engaging in a deep discussion with a close friend.

Virgo Horoscope (Aug 23 – Sep 22)

You are the Champion of Critical Thinking, but it may not feel that way to you now. You like everything in neat and tidy compartments (even within your mind). However, conflicting thoughts draw you back and forth, making it difficult to find resolution to important matters today. Your mind is like a camera that won’t focus sharply and the picture remains blurry no matter how you alter your perspective. No struggle is needed; free your imagination from all the rules for just one day and relax.

Libra Horoscope (Sep 23 – Oct 22)

You have lots of good ideas about something exciting that you want to do, but it’s difficult for a plan to get traction at this time. You can feel the inner tension as you try to resolve a conflict between your hypersensitive feelings and the overall situation at work. You may be called on to nurture someone who you secretly think should be taking care of his or her own business. But you might choose to ride to the rescue now, even if you must temporarily put your needs on hold.

Scorpio Horoscope (Oct 23 – Nov 21)

The watery Cancer Moon instinctively feels comforting, giving you permission to muck about in the feeling realms today. You’re like a beautiful rhino, enjoying playtime in the swamp. You can bask in the added intensity of today’s experiences, but they lose something in the translation when you try to share them with others. There’s nothing wrong with keeping some secrets to yourself until the Sun comes out tomorrow.

Sagittarius Horoscope (Nov 22 – Dec 21)

It’s frustrating that you cannot easily resolve an emotional conflict today. Your feelings are tugging at your pants leg like the proverbial persistent puppy trying to tell you something important. Nevertheless, your resistance is wearing down and you’re more willing to compromise now. Just make sure you’re not giving in to avoid the truth. Keep in mind that your desires won’t really fade until you take the time to acknowledge them.

Capricorn Horoscope (Dec 22 – Jan 19)

Sometimes you must drop what you are doing and place another person’s agenda ahead of yours. Someone may reveal an emotional dilemma today that requires you to jump in and engage your feelings, even though they aren’t very practical. Don’t worry about solving anyone’s problems now; you can be a good friend simply by showing up and responding in the present moment.

Aquarius Horoscope (Jan 20 – Feb 18)

Radical ideas are popping into awareness today faster than you can deal with them. You’re more inventive and clever now, but some of your brilliant ideas might not hit the nail right on the head. Letting go of the craziest thoughts that would rightly be criticized by others is a good way to minimize the noise so you can focus on what’s most important.

Pisces Horoscope (Feb 19 – Mar 20)

Mercury the Communicator is stressing your key planet Neptune, and you may feel like you are looking at the world through rose-colored glasses. Everything appears tinted by your imagination, as if you’re seeing things through a filter that blurs difficult perceptions. Unfortunately, this doesn’t mean that they’re non-existent. Ask a friend for a reality check if something looks particularly amazing or terribly bad. Remember that what you see today is not what you get

Your Weekend Lunar Love Horoscope for May 25 – 27

Weekend Love: Lunar Love

by Jeff Jawer

Hearts Take Center Stage

May 25 – 27

It’s showtime this weekend, and the curtain goes up when the Moon dances into dramatic Leo early on Friday evening. This is a time to express your creativity and your feelings without restraint. It’s definitely more interesting to go too far than to play it safe and hold back emotions. Indulging in a little fantasy is perfect as communicative Mercury crosses paths with imaginative Neptune. Reality takes a temporary backseat to living in the moment without concern for what tomorrow will bring. It’s like Las Vegas is everywhere and everyone can leave behind adult responsibilities to play with heartfelt abandon. Of course, you shouldn’t take what you hear or say too seriously in these ungrounded circumstances.

Dressing to impress on Saturday, almost as if you’re a performer, puts stars in peoples’ eyes and smiles on their faces. Being generous is a wonderful way to please a partner, so open your heart and wallet to make this a special time. Making memories is more important than saving money or saving face. The more love and affection that’s given, the more you’ll get back in return.

This joyous influence continues until late Sunday night when the Moon moves into pragmatic Virgo and minds shift away from play and toward the workweek that lies ahead.

Your Daily Love & Romance Horoscopes for May 25th

Aries

It’s been 6 months since the Sun, Mercury and Venus and therefore your heart, mind and soul have been on the same page, but it’s where they’ve united that’s important for you. It’s on the communication front that things are coming together and it’s your relationships that will benefit from communication lines that now run into the past and future.

Taurus

What created such up and down months on the romantic front, with some real highs and lows that has created a real roller coaster ride, is the challenges and support Mars, planet of passion has received in his journey through your romantic sector. All those ups and downs are behind you, with a chance now to start fighting for what you want from love.

Gemini

Saturn reaches a point today where he’s just a month to the day away from turning direct, with the coming month his last in retrograde motion in your romantic sector for another 30 years. Throughout that time Venus, planet of love will remain in retrograde motion in your sign, giving your heart a guided tour down love’s memory lanes.

Cancer

As the Moon wraps up his monthly visit to your sign, he’ll know that when he returns Mercury, planet of communication will be here and the lifeline this will throw to your relationships. With communication destined to become more important in the future, start the way you intend to go on.

Leo

You’re just 10 days away from a potentially game changing lunar eclipse in your romantic sector, especially as it’s the last before the North Node leaves in August. It’s where a natural current is guiding things in the right direction that you’re approaching an important fork in the river of love, which at this point is still out of sight.

Virgo

This is not usually a time of year that you would expect relationship pressures and challenges, yet that’s what you’ve experienced over recent months. This is something that usually happens in the month or two around your birthday month, but flushing things out earlier in the year has allowed you to get everything out in the open, with a rebuilding now possible.

Libra

When Venus, planet of love returned to an adventurous part of your chart early last month, she was on her own and it stayed that way until just 4 days ago when the Sun returned. Now even Mercury is on board and with heart, mind and soul now committed to approaching both love and life in a more adventurous way, anything is possible.

Scorpio

Jupiter, planet of luck is back where he was on the 5th March, on his own in your relationship sector. However, a lot of water has passed under the bridge since then and where back then you were waiting for a push to bring things up to speed, that push has been and gone. With Jupiter leaving in 2 ½ weeks time, put everything you have into everything you do, into putting your relationships on track.

Sagittarius

In what is an important and undoubtedly a game changing relationship month Mercury, planet of communication will only spend 15 days here. As he spends his first full day in your relationship sector Mercury is embarking you on a speed course on how to open the communication lines and on what to do and what not to do.

Capricorn

When Jupiter leaves your romantic sector on the 12th June there’ll be no more planetary activity here until 2013, with the planet of luck himself not back for another 12 years. But by then the first planetary activity for the year in your relationship sector will have kicked off and already there is a chance to balance your romantic and relationship focus, with the love gods already beginning the handover.

Aquarius

The Sun’s return to your romantic sector 4 days ago kicked off a game changing month on the romantic front, a month that will end with a second New Moon. Venus will spend the whole of that month in retrograde motion here, with the door open to second chances at a time when your luck in love is destined to radically transform.

Pisces

With no planetary activity in your romantic sector since September 2011, all you’ve had to keep things going is the Moon’s monthly visits and the intuitive read this gives you of your heart. Yet as the Moon makes his last visit before the first planetary activity in 8 months, there is a sense of urgency to the wake up calls he’ll be evoking.

Daily Cosmic Calendar for May 25th

Your abilities as a problem-solver and strategist skyrocket – courtesy of a supportive, 60-degree alliance between Mercury and Pallas (12:17AM PDT). When these two mentally-oriented celestial bodies form a positive liaison, all kinds of intellectual and intuitive breakthroughs are possible. As mentioned in yesterday’s calendar entry, we are in a rather quiescent time-period relative to cosmic alignments as major sky patterns are temporarily on the back burner. Nevertheless, today can still be tricky to maneuver through easily since the Moon goes void at 7:35AM PDT during an upbeat Moon-Jupiter 60-degree rapport. The void lunar uncertainty cycle remains in effect until 3:12PM PDT when the Moon enters fiery, warmhearted Leo. In the midst of the void Moon conundrum, Mercury squares off with dreamy Neptune (2:38PM PDT). It is wise to avoid key signings, legal matters and making long-term commitments a few hours before and after this 90-degree clash. You may be able to tweak this planetary link-up into something more favorable by experimenting in the realms of photography, film and video work, painting, music and dance. Inspirations are hitting some extraordinary high notes this evening as a Sun-Mercury parallel (9:52PM PDT) closely coincides with a supportive, 60-degree rapport between the Moon and Mercury (10:32PM PDT).

New Moon Report for May 24th – Mercury in Gemini

Mercury in Gemini

Thursday, May 24, 4:12 am PDT, 7:12 am EDT

Chatty Mercury is more talkative than ever in its airy home sign. Minds open and words flow with ease, perhaps too much at times as thoughts may be spoken carelessly and data accepted uncritically. Getting the most out of the intellectual richness and verbal skills of this transit requires some discernment. All ideas are not equal and all information is not useful. Keeping one’s purpose and priorities in the foreground helps to avoid these tempting distractions.

Your Daily Love & Romance Horoscopes for Wed., May 23rd

Aries

Let’s face it, you have already experienced more than your fair share of relationship challenges and pressures, not only over recent months but on and off over the last few years. But you really have turned a corner and where before there were roadblocks there is now nothing but support. Use the past to empower you, while the door is still open to second chances.

Taurus

With the second half of 2012 destined to become a lot more relationship focused, work now to ensure that the communication lines are open. It’s a growing sense of romantic confidence and a return of your romantic passions that is giving you the courage to speak out, letting others in.

Gemini

Venus, planet of love will remain in retrograde motion in your sign until later next month, due to turn direct just 3 days after Saturn turns direct in your romantic sector. Until then the door to the past and to second chances is open, while in every other aspect of your life the focus is on the future and all that it holds.

Cancer

The Moon is wrapping up his last visit to your communication sector before a very rare Venus eclipse here in just 2 weeks time, giving you an intuitive read on the romantic nostalgia in the air. With the past already coming alive this gives you a chance to get up close and personal with old ghosts, recognising where you need to let go.

Leo

While you have no planetary activity in your romantic sector you are not on your own, with the North Node creating a natural current that is drawing you towards the future and your full romantic potential. This makes it important to keep your romantic focus on the future and the road ahead, for that’s where the opportunities lie.

Virgo

It was just a week ago today that the last opposition played out between forces on the personal and relationship fronts, giving you a chance to get things out in the open. Since then things have eased back on the relationship front and your personal passions and confidence have bounced back, with a need to hold onto the lessons of the last few months.

Libra

It was 2 weeks ago to the day that Mercury, planet of communication left your relationship sector, wrapping up the most active and defining but also the most challenging relationship months of the year. Chances are you won’t be tested this way again for several years, making it important to hold onto the lessons learned and the communication lines this opened.

Scorpio

As Mercury, planet of communication spends his last full day in your relationship sector he knows it will be another 12 years before he’ll meet up with lucky Jupiter here again, giving you the confidence to put your heart on your sleeve and everything on the line. With luck on your side and the communication lines open, what have you got to lose?

Sagittarius

It was the Moon’s return to your relationship sector just hours behind the Sun that formed the unexpected solar eclipse 2 days ago, but as he wraps up his visit he not only knows he’ll return next month for a second New Moon, but that a lot will change between now and then. This makes it important to listen to your instincts, but also keep an open mind and heart.

Capricorn

While Mercury, planet of communication visits your romantic sector once a year, giving you a chance to give your heart a voice and put heart and mind on the same page, it’s been 12 years since he’s teamed up with lucky Jupiter and it will be another 12 years before he does again. This makes his last full day here even more important, with giving your heart a voice a must.

Aquarius

It was the Moon’s return to your romantic sector 2 days ago and alignment with the Sun that created the solar eclipse that both opened new doors and created a real tailwind. But this is also the Moon’s first visit to your romantic sector since Venus turned retrograde here, giving you an intuitive read on the old doors that opened just a week ago to the day.

Pisces

It was a week ago to the day that Mars, planet of passion and the warrior planet of the cosmos faced his final battle and his final opposition, but already things have moved on considerably. Not due to leave your relationship sector until early July, Mars’ passions and fighting spirit can now go into bringing your relationships up to speed.

Your Daily Horoscopes for Tuesday, May 22nd

Our optimism may turn a molehill into a mountain today as mischievous Mercury’s hook-up with bombastic Jupiter has us telling tall tales. Although the Mercury-Jupiter conjunction occurs in practical Taurus, three planets in carefree Gemini indicate our desire to fill the day with things to do and people to see. Thankfully, the Gemini Moon activates a trine between sweet Venus and realistic Saturn, reminding us that some things are worth the wait.

Aries Horoscope (Mar 21 – Apr 19)

Although you may already have taken on too many responsibilities, you’re so confident that you’re ready to put even more on your plate today. Unfortunately, you could spend so much energy just trying to fulfill your obligations that there isn’t much time left over to relax. Don’t wait for the end of the day to wish you had less to complete. Instead, judiciously cut back on your activities by setting healthy limits right from the start.

Taurus Horoscope (Apr 20 – May 20)

You might think that your strategy is a sound one, but you could unexpectedly discover that you have oversimplified your plan. You feel a bit scattered today, even if you try to concentrate your efforts on what needs to be done. Although you know that pleasure eventually awaits you, finding the time to enjoy it remains tricky. Don’t get discouraged; satisfaction will be yours if you keep your eye on the prize.

Gemini Horoscope (May 21 – Jun 20)

Things can quickly get out of hand today with the Moon back in your changeable sign and your key planet Mercury contacting expansive Jupiter. You could easily underestimate what’s required to finish a specific task. Although you might feel overwhelmed for a while, you should be able to pull it all together by the end of the day. Don’t complain, even if you temporarily regret how much you promised. If you just stay focused and work steadily, you could have enough time left over to have some fun.

Cancer Horoscope (June 21 – Jul 22)

You could lose your momentum by thinking of all the reasons you can’t do something that you really want to do. Reality is testing you to see if you can overcome the obstacles in your path. Fortunately, your inner strength gives you enough clarity of vision now so you can organize many disparate puzzle pieces into a comprehensive picture. Although your friends show up to support your efforts, it’s up to you to accept the assistance that’s offered.

Leo Horoscope (Jul 23 – Aug 22)

Your moods seem to be changing quickly now and it’s difficult to know how you’re going to feel next. One minute you seem to have superpowers and then just a few moments later you’re back to being a mere mortal. Even if you can leap tall thoughts in a single bound, you still need to follow through with sensible action. There’s nothing wrong with having your head in the clouds as long as you can keep your feet on the ground at the same time.

Virgo Horoscope (Aug 23 – Sep 22)

You can accomplish a tremendous amount of work now and your productivity is likely to be positively acknowledged by others. However, you may be so enthralled with your big ideas that your excitement becomes your downfall. Unfortunately, you might not even realize if you’ve pushed too far. Don’t assume more responsibilities than you can realistically handle. Take preventative action today before you find yourself over-committed.

Libra Horoscope (Sep 23 – Oct 22)

You can be a case study for the power of positive thought. You’re on a productive high now and might even be able to imagine something right into existence. It’s too bad you can’t bottle this confidence for a rainy day. Unfortunately, the creative juices are fickle and you could get yourself into trouble if you assume that you can sustain such a steady pace. Give yourself a bit of leeway today to wander off track and don’t be afraid to daydream along the way.

Scorpio Horoscope (Oct 23 – Nov 21)

You honestly might not think you have time to relax enough to have the fun that is right in front of your nose. You can say that you’re ready to party, but it’s challenging to avoid the responsibilities that you already accepted. Acknowledge the limitations of what you cannot do in the present moment. Then, you will be freer to explore the deeper meaning of life without the burden of having to find the right answer.

Sagittarius Horoscope (Nov 22 – Dec 21)

You might get caught up in a minor power struggle today as you move through the changes that are being demanded of you. But the more you try to hold on to whatever you believe you had, the more difficult this conflict becomes. However, if your commitment to a larger cause is more important than achieving your personal goals, you should be able to gracefully navigate your way through the resistance.

Capricorn Horoscope (Dec 22 – Jan 19)

You might feel a bit uncomfortable today as you try to get past your self-imposed restrictions in order to take advantage of the exciting opportunities that are being presented to you. The challenges may come to you now in the form of social engagements. However, you could learn something new if you don’t retreat too quickly. Instead, push up against your own insecurities; it’s time to recognize that your fears don’t need to get in the way of the potential in your life.

Aquarius Horoscope (Jan 20 – Feb 18)

Someone might come to you with such a good idea today that it’s hard to resist. You may be feeling so upbeat now that nearly every opportunity looks worthwhile. It doesn’t matter if you’re invited to participate in a business scheme or a private party; it probably sounds better than it actually is. Fortunately, there’s no reason to react negatively; just remain open to modifying your position as more and more of the truth is unveiled.

Pisces Horoscope (Feb 19 – Mar 20)

You may mistakenly believe that you can see the whole picture now. Unfortunately, precision of thought doesn’t necessarily come along with the vision. Sure, you can visualize it all, but you could jump to a wrong conclusion or miss an important detail that’s integral to making the right choices. You will probably choose in favor of the new opportunity because it sounds too amazing to say no. Just remember not to over-commit or you might end up regretting your decision.

Daily Love & Romance Horoscopes for May 22nd

Aries

With not much support on the communication front and that support actively working to enhance second chances on the relationship front, you almost can’t fail. So long as you’re willing to do whatever it takes to ensure that the communication lines are open and that you’re listening as well as talking, things will take on a life of their own.

Taurus

Mars, planet of passion passed his final roadblock last week and with any pressures and challenges behind you a new sense of confidence is emerging. With Mars not leaving your romantic sector until early July you have plenty of time to make up for lost time and to let your romantic passions take the lead.

Gemini

The first full day of your new solar year, one that even in its early hours looks anything but an ordinary run around the block, is also the last full day of an alliance between Venus, planet of love in your sign and Saturn, in retrograde motion in your romantic sector. With the door now open to your future, but your romantic focus on the past, you’re able to see both with equal clarity.

Cancer

Having the Sun in a nostalgic part of your chart has been a game changer, with the cosmic spotlight now directed onto the road behind. With Venus, planet of love in retrograde motion here and Pluto in retrograde motion in your relationship sector, they’re no longer operating in the dark, making any potential second chances easier to spot.

Leo

With no planetary activity in either of your romantic or relationship sectors, overwhelming professional forces haven’t met much resistance. But if the scales have been balanced too far towards your professional life they have already begun to shift, with both new doors and the door to second chances now open in a social and serendipitous part of your chart.

Virgo

Since returning to your relationship sector in February Neptune, planet of dreams and fantasies has been standing back as personal and relationship challenges played out, all the while bringing a sense that anything was possible. Due to turn retrograde in just 2 weeks time, Neptune gives you a chance to slow down and engage your imagination.

Libra

As Venus, planet of love spends her first full week in retrograde motion in an adventurous part of your chart, she has support on all sides. With the Sun spending his first full day here as well, life as a whole is taking on more colourful dynamics. With the seriousness of recent months behind you, it’s time to have some fun.

Scorpio

With the Sun already gone from your relationship sector, Mercury leaving in just 2 days time and even Jupiter in just 3 weeks time, you’re now in the end game, where it’s all about putting your relationships on the path you want them to continue on. While your relationships are still a priority they won’t be for much longer, so getting things on track is essential.

Sagittarius

Where yesterday’s solar eclipse in your relationship sector and the new doors this opened may have taken you by surprise, you have a chance today to adjust. One of the biggest adjustments is how to focus this with Venus, planet of love’s first full week in retrograde motion in your relationship sector and the doors to second chances this has opened.

Capricorn

With the Sun and Moon gone from your romantic sector, Mercury leaving in 2 days time and Jupiter in just 3 weeks time, a journey that began in June 2011 is coming to an end. That journey is to bring your romantic expectations and experiences up to speed and your love life on the track you want it to continue on, with a new sense of urgency setting in.

Aquarius

At the same time that yesterday’s solar eclipse in your romantic sector has opened the door to new beginnings, with Venus spending her first full week in retrograde motion here the door is also open to second chances. You have so much romantic clout and for so long that you don’t have to pick and choose which to go after, with anything possible.

Pisces

You’re now in the final weeks of a major mission to bring your communications up to speed, something that your relationships will rely on moving forward, with a need to make every effort you can now to ensure that the communication lines are open. You’ve come too far to be tripped up now by unsaid words.

Daily Cosmic Calendar for Tuesday, May 22nd

Every so often, the universe requests a siesta and pulls in the reins – allowing humanity and events on Earth to proceed without a lot of outside interference. This is one of those infrequent, 24-hour time-periods. The Moon continues its transit through Gemini – placing an emphasis on reading, writing and exploring favorite hobbies. A key event is the monthly Moon-Venus union (2:25PM PDT) – the first lunar conjunction with Venus since this planet’s reversal on May 15. Feminine issues are on center stage right now. Make sure your primary partnerships are improving rather than stagnating. Review your recent progress in the fine and graphic arts. It should be business as usual on the professional front – thanks to a flowing trine in air signs of the Moon and Saturn (3:52PM PDT). However, this harmonious tie between the Moon and Saturn also begins a long void twilight zone that lasts until 4:32AM PDT tomorrow. The main rule-of-thumb during any void-of-course lunar cycle is to finish old projects on a high note, but not launch bold ventures. Take this message to heart as Mercury forms a contra-parallel to Pluto (6:50PM PDT). Psychic storm warnings are posted – particularly on the relationship horizon where casual conversations could turn into vociferous debates or outright arguments. Be prepared for added controversy and unsettled conditions in affairs of the heart tomorrow as Mercury will oppose Juno just a few hours before one of two annual Sun-Neptune squares.

Your Daily Horoscopes for Monday, May 21st

It’s challenging to know what to do with all the new information we receive today. However, yesterday’s Solar Eclipse was a turning point, and the flighty Gemini Moon reminds us that we don’t have our feet back on the ground yet. But even if we perceive our world differently now, mental Mercury’s run-in with naysayer Saturn prevents us from flying with an untested idea. It will take time to integrate our clever thoughts into the real world.

Aries Horoscope (Mar 21 – Apr 19)

Everything seems to be moving too quickly — even though you speedy Rams are the Champions of Fast. You’re also the Champions of First, but being in front of everyone else isn’t what’s most important now. Slow down your words so your heart can catch up to your thoughts, or otherwise you’ll be the cleverest lonely person around. Even if you think too much today, saying less helps to maintain the peace.

Taurus Horoscope (Apr 20 – May 20)

Although your thinking picks up a bit of speed from the agile Gemini Moon, the urgency of your message is diminished by communicator Mercury’s presence in steady Taurus. It’s easier now to let go of those things that quietly bother you because you recognize that you won’t find resolution today. Nevertheless, your natural persistence enables you to restore balance between your current need for immediate gratification and your willingness to wait until the timing is right.

Gemini Horoscope (May 21 – Jun 20)

Your world is changing faster than you realize. Even if you have a well thought-out plan, rational Mercury’s anxious quincunx with sobering Saturn just might send you back to the drawing board to tighten your logic. Meanwhile, the Moon dances along in your sign, but it’s not a simple tune that’s playing, especially if you are trying to hold on to a feeling from the past. Nevertheless, share what’s in your heart before it’s too late.

Cancer Horoscope (June 21 – Jul 22)

Fear is creeping into your subconscious mind today and turning your imagination two shades darker. Just remember that dark doesn’t necessarily imply evil; it simply means an absence of light. What you think and feel can seem more real now than reality itself. Enjoy the magic of the Hall of Mirrors without needing to know what’s going to happen next. Fortunately, your active imagination holds the keys to your future.

Leo Horoscope (Jul 23 – Aug 22)

There’s an important shift brewing in your social world now that the Sun, Moon and Venus are all occupying your 11th House of Friends. Something out of the ordinary may occur, ultimately making you feel as if your friends or co-workers aren’t even on your side. However, these feelings could be just an illusion playing a trick on you. Let things develop naturally and don’t try to read too much into the current situation.

Virgo Horoscope (Aug 23 – Sep 22)

If everything at work appears to be too good to be true today, then something is about to change. However, if progress has been bumpy, it may be smart to examine what changes you could initiate. But don’t get too impatient or your frustration can put a negative spin on your professional relationships. It is to your advantage to allow the tensions to resolve gradually, without applying too much pressure to have things go your way.

Libra Horoscope (Sep 23 – Oct 22)

You tend to be rather philosophical about your day, even if it doesn’t turn out as you envisioned it. Instead of getting all stressed out over a necessary change of plans, you might just quietly adapt as required. Nevertheless, there’s still a price to be paid for missing your mark. Instead of wasting energy worrying about a setback, process your disappointment quickly so you can set new goals and try again.

Scorpio Horoscope (Oct 23 – Nov 21)

The current cluster of planets in your 8th House of Shared Resources might affect your material possessions and income status. However, this emphasis is just as often about non-material things that others bring into your life, including love and sexuality. You may secretly wish that you could withdraw for a bit to re-evaluate the complexity of a relationship. Instead, stay connected to those around you and save the contemplation for another day.

Sagittarius Horoscope (Nov 22 – Dec 21)

No matter how much you apply your analytical thinking today, you might not be able to figure out what’s going on in the mind of your partner. Whatever is usually transparent has now gone dark, making it impossible to accurately read the situation. Stop trying so hard to solve a temporarily unsolvable mystery. Instead, focus on the beauty in those you love and support them the best way you can.

Capricorn Horoscope (Dec 22 – Jan 19)

Concentrating on the details of your work is extremely helpful today. If you do your job right, your efforts will bring you the rewards and recognition that you seek. In the meantime, there are probably more tasks to do than you expected. Even if you would rather celebrate your impending success now, don’t go popping any corks until you are absolutely positive that your tasks are truly done.

Aquarius Horoscope (Jan 20 – Feb 18)

Your romantic world may be in for a change, yet you cannot see what’s around the next corner. However, prior to your pursuit of happiness, you first need to finish the business that’s still on your plate. Don’t try to rush the process since it will happen on its own timetable. Instead, focus on the possibilities of your creativity, without worrying about concrete production for now.

Pisces Horoscope (Feb 19 – Mar 20)

It’s difficult to move forward today, even if you’re enthusiastic about your next project. You might prefer hiding out in your office or at home, sharing your plans online or over the phone, as the Sun and the Moon visit your 4th House of Emotional Security. Nevertheless, it’s wise now to push beyond your comfort zone. Nothing ventured; nothing gained.

Your Business & Career Horoscopes for the Week of May 21

Aries

It’s where you’ve been held back or penned in on the work front that you’re finally able to put your foot down and go for it this week, spurred on by a new sense of urgency on the income front. It was only last week that Mars, planet of passion, drive and ambition faced his last hurdle and not due to leave your work sector until the 4th July what has been a marathon is switching back to a sprint again. As you come into the home straight of a journey that began last November, you’re no longer green behind the ears and you have a wealth of experience and professional hindsight to draw on. This allows you to pick your battles wisely at what is a time for putting your head down and your tail up, putting everything you have into everything you do.

Taurus

There is a new level of confidence on the work front this week and it’s coming from the fact that things have shifted to support your hard work and effort and all the drudge work put in, in the past. Saturn, the only planet in either of your professional houses, has been in retrograde motion in your work sector since early February and will remain in retrograde motion until later next month, so nothing has changed as far as he’s concerned. It’s still all about putting your head down and your tail up, putting in the hard work behind the scenes that you need to but more that the conditions have changed. Saturn is no longer under pressure, so the work pressure should have eased right back, but it’s support and confidence on the income front that has changed all the filters.

Gemini

There is a chance to pull back this week. It was just last week that the last in a series of Mars oppositions, that has put direct pressure on your career sector, finally ran its course. Where this created professional pressure and work/life balance pressures specifically, you’ve had a chance to learn a lot and take heed of any wake up calls. But with the pressure gone and both Neptune and Chiron, the planets staying on to keep your professional game on a roll slowing down, ahead of their retrograde turn early next month, there is no longer any urgency. Instead there is a chance to pull back this week and work with the cards already on the table. This is now all about the big picture and it’s that big picture that you have a chance to refer back to now, with a chance to get your bearings.

Cancer

Pay attention to any work pressure early in the week, finding a balance between avoiding sweating the small stuff and not sticking your head in the sand. It’s on Monday, 2 weeks to the day before a lunar eclipse in your work sector is likely to see fate reveal the final wildcard up its sleeve, that the Moon and Sun will align to push some buttons. This comes at the start of the month long wind down to your current solar year, when there is a need to start conserving energy and to pace yourself. This may present as a case of Mondayitis, in which case you need to humour yourself and not push through this, telling yourself to buck up. There is a serious need to slow down and to look at where any expectations are coming from. A slower approach may see you accomplish more in the long run.

Leo

Moving into the new week with the Sun, Mercury, Moon and Jupiter in your career sector would suggest that this is going to be a professionally charged week and while it will remain an important professional week, things ease back dramatically while becoming more urgent at the same time. With the Sun and Moon leaving your career sector on Monday, Mercury on Thursday and none meeting up with lucky Jupiter again here for another 12 years, all your cards are now on the table. It’s the insight, professional instincts and intellectual savvy that the Sun, Moon and Mercury leave you with that allow you to move into what is the end game ready to play your A game. With Jupiter leaving on the 12th June it’s time to bring things home.

Virgo

Venus’ retrograde turn in your career sector last week and her first full week in retrograde motion suggests this should be a fairly quiet professional week, with the focus on the past and on working behind the scenes. While this will play a part in this week’s dynamics this is anything but a behind the scenes week, with your professional game being thrust into the limelight in the early hours of the week. It’s on Monday that the Sun and Moon not only return to your career sector within hours of each other, but align to form a solar eclipse on Monday. This opens the door to new beginnings and opportunities, just as Venus is opening the door to the past and second chances. Mercury’s return to your career sector gives you the intellectual savvy to manage a changing professional landscape.

Libra

You have a chance to rest on your laurels this week. It was only last Thursday that work pressure began to ease off, yet unlike the false starts of the past, this time you really have crossed your final hurdle. Pay attention as your professional instincts kick in, from Thursday or Friday onwards, for what you’ll be picking up on is the Moon’s return to your career sector, for what is his last visit before new doors open in less than 2 weeks time. Once new doors open on the career front, from the 7th June onwards, they’ll remain open for the next 3 months, bringing you to the most important professional months of the year, especially when it comes to looking at where to from here. This makes it important to step back this week, catching your breath before the next wave.

Scorpio

Things have eased back considerably on the work front, to a point where you’re now able to focus more on pacing yourself, keeping what has been put in motion in play. Mercury only left your work sector on the 9th May, so this is still early days and with Uranus staying on to keep things on track, it’s less about the push to bring things up to speed and more about being in the driver’s seat, keeping things on the road. It’s the Moon’s return to your career sector on Saturday, a month to the day before new doors are due to open, that gives you a chance to both sharpen your professional instincts and look ahead. This gives you your first real glimpse of what will be the defining months of your professional year, with a chance to start looking ahead to new mountains and goals to conquer.

Sagittarius

Despite a professionally driven start to the week, expect things to ease back. It was only last week that Mars faced his final hurdle and not due to leave your career sector until the 4th July, his professional passions move into the overdrive this week, ready to make up for lost time. At the same time you begin the week with the Sun, Mercury, Moon and Jupiter in your work sector, completing one of the most formidable line ups you’ve gone into a new working week with all year. Yet while you still have several more weeks to bring things up to speed on the career front, on the work front this is the end game. The Sun and Moon leave your work sector on Monday and Mercury on Thursday and with Jupiter leaving 3 weeks later it’s time to wrap things up and tie up loose ends.

Capricorn

After Venus’ retrograde turn in your work sector last week her first full week in retrograde motion should see things pull right back especially as Saturn, the only other planet in either of your professional houses, is also in retrograde motion in your career sector. While this does open the door to second chances on the work and career fronts, especially as Venus and Saturn are working together, this is destined to be anything but a quiet and behind the scenes week. It all changes dramatically when within hours of each other first the Sun and then the Moon not only return to your work sector on Monday, but align to form a solar eclipse. This opens the door to new beginnings and a game changing month on the work front, while the doors to second chances are also open.

Aquarius

Apart from a Full Moon in your career sector earlier in the month you’ve had no help from the professional gods this year, with no planetary activity in either of your professional houses so far this year. That’s about to change with Mercury returning to your work sector on the 7th June, opening the door to an active 3 months on the work front that will overlap the start of a much bigger phase on the career front, that won’t ease off until 2015. In short, your time on the professional sidelines is about to end, with the Moon’s last visit to your work sector before things kick off giving you a chance to sharpen your instincts, get your bearings and pick up on some valuable clues. Keep your finger on the pulse and your ear to the ground, especially between Thursday and Saturday.

Pisces

Look behind any work/life balance pressures, for it’s coming from buttons being pushed as planetary influence kicks in on the home front, inadvertently putting pressure on the very points on the career front that are due to come to a head during a lunar eclipse in just a few weeks time. At the same time this gives you a chance to address any work/life balance issues it also provides some valuable wake up calls, putting you on alert to developments that are likely to come to a head during the lunar eclipse in your career sector on the 4th June. It’s the Moon’s return to your work sector on Saturday, a month to the day before Mercury returns and opens the door to the first planetary activity here for the year that gives you a chance to tap into any clues, hunches and insights ahead of time.

Your Love & Romance Horoscopes for the Week of May 21st

Aries

As Venus, planet of love spends her first full week in retrograde motion in your communication sector she does so with the full support of Saturn, in retrograde motion in your relationship sector. These two planets will continue to work together until they both turn direct, within just 3 days of each other, later next month. Until then the doors are open to second chances on the communication and relationship fronts and especially where the two come together. Yet it’s the Sun and Moon’s return to your communication sector and the solar eclipse this creates on Monday, that also opens the door to new opportunities on the communication front. This will also support your relationships, with a sense that a corner has been turned with communication now everything.

Taurus

Mars, planet of passion’s opposition with Chiron, planet of healing last week was the last of several challenges over recent weeks and months, but with the final hurdle now behind you there is a new sense of confidence kicking in. Mars won’t leave your romantic sector until early July and with no more roadblocks, he’s about to take things into high gear, with the romantic passions that held you back in the past now let loose. The only thing that can hold you down now or stop you from fully experiencing the romantic breakthroughs now possible, is to be held back by the past. You can’t change the past but you can change how you look back on and label the past. Do so in a way that sets you free to embrace the romantic passions that are begging to be embraced.

Gemini

As Venus spends her first full week in retrograde motion in your sign it’s with the full support of Saturn, in retrograde motion in your romantic sector. This is Saturn’s last retrograde phase in your romantic sector for another 30 years and Venus will stay in retrograde motion until it’s over, ensuring that a trip down memory lane that may have been challenging is now a lot more enjoyable. Saturn is more focused on learning from and confronting the past while Venus is on the lookout for second chances as she takes a trip down love’s memory lane. Venus will stop this from becoming too serious and Saturn from becoming overly sentimental. Don’t be put off by any relationship pressure, for its providing some wake up calls ahead of a lunar eclipse on the 4th June.

Cancer

A sense of romantic and relationship nostalgia was already evident with Venus in a nostalgic part of your chart and Pluto in retrograde motion in your relationship sector however this deepens further this week. It was Venus’ retrograde turn last week and her first full week in retrograde motion that puts the only two planets influencing things on the personal front in retrograde motion, with the focus on the past. This also means that Venus has had to postpone her return to your sign, now not returning until August, giving you a chance instead to take some trips down love’s memory lane and exorcise some old ghosts. You can’t change the past, but with some huge romantic developments in the second half of the year, this gives you a chance to revisit the past in a way that sets you free.

Leo

Chances are you’ll move into the new week with a sense that the love gods are anything but on your side, with some real pressure. This is coming from the fact that both the Sun and Moon, during their alignment that forms a solar eclipse in a social and serendipitous part of your chart on Monday, will both put direct pressure on the North Node, over in your romantic sector. This comes 2 weeks to the day before a lunar eclipse in your romantic and creative sector on the 4th June, which is destined to be bringing anything building to a head or to a turning or tipping point, as well as bringing you to a romantic crossroads. Any pressure at the start of the week will be temporary, but it’s going to provide a valuable wakeup call when you can least afford to fall asleep at the wheel.

Virgo

After last week’s opposition between Mars, planet of passion in your sign and Chiron, planet of healing in your relationship sector, there is likely to be a tentative sense of reprieve in the air as you move into the new week. While any relationship pressure is likely to have scaled right back, chances are you still have your guard up, for after all this has waned in the past only to return. This time around the reprieve is as permanent as anything can be, in that if your relationships are never tested they’ll eventually stagnate. But in terms of the pressures faced over recent weeks and months this is over, with a chance now to move on. While the healing process will continue, with the roadblocks behind you there is a return of hope and optimism.

Libra

There is a growing sense of confidence on the relationship and romantic fronts and for different reasons. On the relationship front the main thrust to get your relationships up to speed is behind you and after the Moon visited your relationship sector last month, you’ve had a chance to tweak things. Now it’s more about keeping things on track, with a need to continuously reinvent the wheel. With your relationships no longer a major focus, but enough going on for you to keep things in motion, there is a lot more focus and attention on Venus, planet of love. With Venus spending her first full week in an adventurous part of your chart, she’s taking you on a guided tour down love’s memory lane, revealing what you might be missing out on while opening the door to second chances.

Scorpio

After forces on the romantic front faced their final challenge last week, things have eased back and as this is an ongoing journey the urgency shifts to your relationships this week. While you begin the week with the Sun, Moon, Mercury and Jupiter in your relationship sector, making this the most active area of your chart and therefore the most dominant aspect, you will end the week with Jupiter not only on his own, but getting ready to leave in just a few weeks time. The real shift comes on Monday when, within hours of each other, first the Sun and then the Moon leave your relationship sector, neither meeting up with lucky Jupiter again here for another 12 years. With Mercury leaving your relationship sector on Thursday there’s an urgent need to ensure the communication lines are open.

Sagittarius

Expect a dramatic turnaround on the relationship front, in what is destined to be a defining and game changing week on the relationship front. This is Venus, planet of love’s first full week in retrograde motion in your relationship sector and as the only planet here, this should make this a very nostalgic week, with the door open to second chances. That is still the case, but this is complimented by the fact that the Sun and Moon not only both return to your relationship sector on Monday but align to form a solar eclipse, which is a supercharged New Moon. Between this New Moon and a second next month everything will change. This opens the door to new beginnings while the door to the past is open, with Mercury’s return on Thursday opening the communication lines.

Capricorn

There is a new sense of urgency on the romantic front this week with the Sun and Moon leaving your romantic sector on Monday, Mercury on Thursday and none meeting up with lucky Jupiter again here for another 12 years. Even Jupiter, in your romantic sector since June 2011, is getting ready to leave on the 12th June, with a real sense that it’s time to wrap things up. As the Sun, Moon and Mercury leave they’ll each leave you with the insight needed to make the coming weeks count, especially when it comes to putting your romantic expectations on the path you want them to continue on. The Moon’s return to your relationship sector on Friday provides some valuable wake up calls, in his last visit before things start to move on the relationship front, in just a few weeks time.

Aquarius

The love gods are out in force this week, making this a one of the most romantically charged weeks of the year to date and the start of what is destined to be a game changing month. As you move into the new week Venus is spending her first full week in retrograde motion in your romantic sector, holding the door open to second chances. Yet it’s on Monday that within hours of each other, that the Sun and Moon not only return to your romantic sector but align to form a solar eclipse. This is a super charged New Moon with the element of fate woven in, opening the door to new beginnings and opportunities. With Mercury returning to your romantic sector on Thursday and Jupiter in just a few weeks time, the doors to both new opportunities and second chances are wide open.

Pisces

What a difference a week makes. Last week you were facing yet more relationship challenges yet this was also the final hurdle and with no more to cross and all your cards on the table, you should have a clear sense of what you’re fighting for and against. It’s Mars, the warrior planet of the cosmos that now has a clear run, with no more obstacles in his path before leaving your relationship sector on the 4th July. It was a coming together of forces on the communication front over the weekend that helped to not only turn things around, but to get this rebuilding phase up to speed. Pay attention to romantic vibes that are going to come into play just in time for the weekend, as the Moon makes his last visit to your romantic sector before new doors open from early next month.

Avoid office arguments at all costs. They will only rise up to bite you in the behind when you least expect it. Winning will not be worth the cost to your peace of mind in the long run. Be careful when commuting or traveling today, people are driving aggressively.

Horse

You need to take a breather from your ambitious schedule at the moment and find a way to schedule a little “playtime”. You may be considering a vacation soon – if so, pick up cancellation insurance, plans are subject to change. You may have to face a detour or two on the way to work.

Sheep

There is a sudden interest in health care or wellness treatments indicated in your chart today. A family member could come to you for help or advice, or vice versa. You will benefit from the wisdom of the older people in your family right now.

Monkey

Don’t be too quick to jump to a friend’s verbal defense today – you may end up falling into the trap called “The Middle”. That’s a place you definitely don’t want to be. Listen and be non-committal. Don’t offer any advice or defenses unless you are clearly invited to jump in.

Rooster

Someone could come to you looking for financial assistance, but you are both going to be much better off if you just offer advice instead. You may have the solution they need, even if it does involve a lot more hard work or responsibility than they would like.

Dog

You strongly want more self-control today, but if you allow a pushy friend to take charge of the agenda, they will go much further. It is your day to be the leader, the boss, to be in charge. That may involve sacrifices or confrontations.

Pig

Your intuition is fluctuating a bit today. You don’t know whether to listen to your head or your heart, and neither one may be correct right now. Don’t be led by anxiety. Keep your thoughts focused on your dreams and goals – on what you want, not what you don’t want.

Rat

friends you have made recently could bring mixed blessings right now. One offers knowledge or skills as a healer, but others are acting a little odd. It could be there has been a misunderstanding based on cultural, spiritual or religious differences.

Ox

What looks like a frustrating encounter with an employer or work-related authority figure could turn into a blessing in disguise. You won’t feel like pushing yourself today and could get taken to task for it. But once things blow over, someone could see that your working conditions needed to change.

Tiger

The faxes are buzzing. The phones are ringing off the hook. The email is rolling in. You may have a hard time keeping up with all the mental chatter you are exposed to now. You have a major case of “information overload”. Go with the flow – don’t try to fight things.

The Daily Cosmic Calendar for Sunday, May 20

The last week has been filled with many unusual days and a wide variety of powerful alignments. Here is another 24-hour time-span when you need to be on your toes and ready for anything. Healing forces are reinforced as Mercury makes an inspirational, 72-degree contact with Chiron (4:27AM PDT). Additional good news arrives during the monthly Moon-Jupiter union in Taurus (5:36AM PDT). Optimistic vibes are dominant, but this lunar conjunction with the largest planet in the solar system also begins a void uncertainty zone that lasts until 4:06PM PDT. It is during the void time-period that the Sun shifts from earthy Taurus to airy Gemini (8:17AM PDT) while Uranus shocks Mercury via a tense, 45-degree link (3:06PM PDT). Even though the Moon leaves void status at 4:06PM PDT, the New Moon at 1 degree Gemini doesn’t take place until 4:48PM PDT. Then six minutes later, the exact moment of the Annular Solar Eclipse reaches its culmination. This kind of eclipse indicates that a narrow ring of sunlight is visible beyond the dark circle of the Moon because the lunar orb is too close to Earth to fully block out all sunlight. Nevertheless, this eclipse can be as potent and meaningful as a total one. Southern China, Japan, the Northern Pacific Ocean and Western America (mainly Northern California, Nevada, Utah, Arizona, New Mexico and Western Texas) are in the pathway of this solar-lunar rendezvous. Eclipses were often feared by our ancestors because they didn’t understand the science, math and stellar geometry behind such occurrences. It is best to see today’s event as a super-duper New Moon – where you are being galvanized to take several leaps forward in your main areas of expertise as well as in favorite hobbies. Vesta in a flowing trine of 120-degrees to Pluto (9:15PM PDT) is an extra signal from our cosmic brothers and sisters that you can make a lot of progress in the business and investment realms if you are determined, disciplined and use common sense.

Your Daily Horoscopes for Friday, May 18

We may actually have time to take a few deep breaths and relax today as the Moon enters bucolic Taurus at 6:03 am EDT. Although we might want to accomplish a lot now, it’s difficult to shift into gear with six planets in solid Earth signs. The lack of momentum means an early start to a lazy weekend as indicated by the Moon’s harmonious trines to Mars and Pluto. However, the pace picks up noticeably by Sunday evening’s New Moon Solar Eclipse.

Aries Horoscope (Mar 21 – Apr 19)

You are building your case to justify something you intend to do, but this rationalization may be more about convincing yourself than anyone else. Think about what you’re taking for granted before reconsidering your assumptions. You might need to change your mind, even if you are certain that you’re right. It’s crucial to establish an enduring foundation for your beliefs before you are too far along in your plans.

Taurus Horoscope (Apr 20 – May 20)

You are under steady pressure to change, but you will grow stronger by resisting on specific points. You may believe that others are judging you unfairly, yet you seem to take it all in stride. However, you could grow weary from the stress because you must pay attention to every single move you make. Try not to get too frustrated if your progress is stymied. It’s better to take small steps than none at all.

Gemini Horoscope (May 21 – Jun 20)

The intensity of your daily routine continues to settle now, but even if you act as if you’re doing great, things may not be as pleasant as you prefer. You may feel restless because you want more variety and excitement in your life. If your need for mental stimulation isn’t being met, then something must change. Bide your time for a few more days; the energy will shift in a positive direction next week.

Cancer Horoscope (June 21 – Jul 22)

You have been running hot and cold lately, challenging you to find a happy medium between the extremes. Even if you attempt to smooth things out today, it still may feel like you’re bouncing back and forth between optimism and pessimism. Thankfully, the pragmatic Taurus Moon gives you the common sense to move beyond your clever words. Remember, if you don’t push so hard now, you won’t have to retreat as far.

Leo Horoscope (Jul 23 – Aug 22)

It may be easier for you to reach your goals today if you are more realistic about them. Fortunately, your concentration seems to take you further than usual now, enabling you to make a lot of progress. Ultimately, you don’t need to pull any rabbits out of magical hats; you have a good chance of touching the stars if you just keep your feet on the ground.

Virgo Horoscope (Aug 23 – Sep 22)

You may discover an opportunity to embark on a special trip, an extended holiday or just a weekend getaway now with four planets in your 9th House of Travel. Don’t let this opportunity pass. Daydream about your vacation today; don’t even try to hide your vision. Just bring an unconventional scheme out into the open, and the rewards might follow quicker than you expect.

Libra Horoscope (Sep 23 – Oct 22)

You can be pulled into someone’s drama now before you even realize what happened. Although you probably have plenty of complications in your life, there may be a few more yet to handle. Even if there’s a storm brewing around you, the good news is that you’re feeling more centered. Don’t be tricked into thinking that you will lose a chance at success unless you act decisively right away. The truth is that even the smallest steps can lead to major improvements.

Scorpio Horoscope (Oct 23 – Nov 21)

You are like a participant in a relay race now, trying to maintain a steady pace. You are finished with one cycle yet the next one hasn’t yet started. If you aren’t willing to let go of the baton, you will be stuck doing the same old thing. Fortunately, your teammates are more stable than you think and handing off responsibilities to them is a smart strategy.

Sagittarius Horoscope (Nov 22 – Dec 21)

Attention to endless minutiae can make you crazy as the practical Taurus Moon joins three other planets in your 6th House of Efficiency. However, demands are being made on you to pay additional attention to things so tiny that you’re sure there’s a conspiracy afoot. You would like to demonstrate how good you are at managing the big picture and prefer to ignore the details. Balance is your key to success today, so keep one eye on the greater whole and the other on the specifics.

Capricorn Horoscope (Dec 22 – Jan 19)

Endings and beginnings go hand in hand, but sometimes the timing is off. Unfortunately, you may already be champing at the bit, yet another set of obstacles prevents you from reaching your destination. Instead of bolting ahead, take the time to methodically finish up the old business in your life so you are completely free to step into the new creative cycle starting next week.

Aquarius Horoscope (Jan 20 – Feb 18)

Your focus is on domestic affairs this weekend, and you’re likely to spend more time at home and with your family. You might even get drawn into activities without being formally asked. Your boundaries aren’t as firm as they usually are today, leaving you more susceptible to the whims of those you love. Although you may not know exactly the best way to move forward, the wisdom will come to you just in the nick of time.

Pisces Horoscope (Feb 19 – Mar 20)

You don’t want to have any secrets now. Whatever it is that you’ve been holding within your heart, it’s time to open up. Receive the love, while remembering that the potential for hurt arrives at the same time. Ultimately, you can make the best of a difficult situation if you’re willing to share the wide range of feelings that you’re experiencing.
