May Astrology Forecast for 2018

Aries (3/20-4/19): With horns lowered and front hooves pawing angrily at the ground, you are ready to begin May. The anger is merely a form of energy used by the Rams to get the job done. Watch for danger as you move about on the 12th. There are some people out there moving even faster than you. Don’t be fooled by bad advice that same day. On the 15th, the party lights are turned on. Friendships, at this time, are directly related to your business success. With no effort on their part, friends seem to bring luck with your income.  Most of the time, it seems that friends tend to gum-up the works, but not this month. They can keep your secrets and are truly concerned with your success. Hard choices could arise near the 16th. There is a likelihood that one of your friendships could end this month. This one particular friend may be the exception to those who help you. They are extra weight to your endeavors, but it’s up to you if you think you can handle their troubles and still do your work. The 15th is perfect to fire off your rockets, showing how formidable you are. This seems to be a need to boost the ego. The 23rd brings two possibilities. You may need to make many short trips for one thing, or you have an athletic “zone” that draws you to compete.

Taurus (4/20-5/20): If you look into the eye of a Bison (or most Bovines) you will see a sparkle of light that shines like Venus, which is the ruling planet for Taurus. Don’t get too close to the Buffalos unless they know you. They are the largest land animals of the western hemisphere weighing up to 3000 pounds or more. No animal symbolizes the Sign of Taurus like the Bisons. They are heavily connected to the Earth. They are very protective and caring for their young and each other. It is their nature to have regular routines while resisting changes.  And their territorial/possessive character is known to all who come close. Venus adds beauty to your Sign. Your beauty can be a burden as it can attract ugliness, such as a stalker. The Bovines have always been stalked and kept track of. Some people erroneously think they cannot be without your qualities. Venus also adds an insecure feeling. It’s like a need to have all your creature comforts, plenty of spending money for splurges, and all the bills under control. The 7th brings a choice between love and money. All work and no play, they say, can cause a lover to go astray. Other good advice comes on the 13th. The 15th brings giant changes to your life. You have felt it coming, and now it’s here for the next 7 years. You might want to see your psychic. The 19th suggests that many short trips, or just writing down your thoughts will help with these erratic changes. For the next month, your emotions will want to make your decisions, but Mercury is there to say, “Be logical”.  The 25th brings a final decision to a matter. Time to divest.

Gemini (5/21-6/21): Your month of May has 3 phases as Mercury touches on 3 Signs. The first 2 weeks has you connected-up with friends as you continue working on your dreams. The 7th requires careful attention while driving. Mercury causes you to drive too aggressively on and near that day. Tell the judge that Mercury made you do it. It does indicate that you will tend to be a little “wired” for 5 days until the 12th. Better call Uber or Lyft. Actually, better to just jog. Then you go through a withdrawal period for 2 weeks starting on the 13th. Part of this time, on the 18th, especially, can be used to formulate plans to be implemented after the 28th. Doing just that much is enough to clear the way for romance and happiness with another on the 22nd. Make a date for the 25th when passions will flare up. That same passion could be used to speak out        against social atrocities and unresolved crimes. For gardeners, this is a good time to plant root crops for the fall. Gardening can be very soothing for frazzled nerves. The 29th is like an awakening as you emerge into the glow of loveliness, which is more than just the light of a full Moon.

Cancer (6/22-7/22) : The Crab Clan are still recovering from that last full Moon in Scorpio. It was mmm mmm good as Campbell Soup says. Hopefully, that was not the last time. Then love gets put on the back burner until the 19th. The Universe wants you to look within during this time to find what it is you truly value. Once you complete that task, you will be looking and feeling your best. As the official Sign of Changes, Cancerians will have their ability to adapt tested by major changes in the world this month. It seems unfair that as you focus on your goals, you attract more obstacles to those goals. Use those Claws to pinch on to your dreams. Just clamp down and hold on because you can bring down walls you may have created. Cancers can expect to make new and unusual friends over the next 7 years. This is also the time frame to start raking in some profits from all your hard work. You will be drawn to people in the science and electronics fields. They may seem weird, but you kinda like that, don’t you? In general, life may be just a little too exciting for the lay-back Cancers, so you can’t be blamed for withdrawing to the emotional safety of your shell. Those emotional batteries are running low and may need recharging at the beach. The ocean calls and awaits with it’s healing powers for all Crabs.

Leo (7/23-8/22): The flowers of May fill your nose and mind with a sense of romance. This will affect your well-protected image, but it could hurt your life pursuits in some way. This mood is at a peak on the 6th. You could become the Lion stalking its prey. This 1st weekend is made for such goings-on. This may lead to having to make an important choice on the 8th. Religious issues which are part of your upbringing, can become quite an energy drain from certain expectations. There seems to be an unhappiness within a partner. Your humor and coddling skills can snap them from their funk. There are needed changes related to your business concerns of a personal nature on the 11th. This might lead to a healthy and happy feeling to be shared with your paramour. The 15th brings a new dimension to your relationship. You are energyzed to be part of “the scene”, and  that brings love and fun your way. Friends have great ideas to bring into your life from the 20th onward. The 23rd provides an excellent outlet for your abundance of energy. This month can be like a Harlequin romance novel, but there are also great business opportunities bubbling-up along the way.

Virgo (8/23-9/22): The Virgins are fired up this month as Mercury speeds along bringing fleeting experiences that will need quick and decisive actions. Something new looms on the horizon, related to your life-work. Maybe, an entire change is in order. All you have to do is decide and get past a few obstacles on the 7th and near the 12th. You have an itch to get away around mid-month. It will be a 7 year itch as Uranus enters your house of travel and higher education. Be sure to rest when you can during these high energy times. You may be prone to fevers or inflammations after the 15th. More rest, vitamins, and ample hydration could save you from illness. The 18th is perfect for using old, constructive methods to better your life.  By the 25th, you could be caught up in a turmoil. For some of the Worker Sign, there could be floods to deal with. Your instinct will be to help others during an emergency, but do it logically, not emotionally. The full Moon of the 29th will help you to play nicer with others.

Libra (9/23-10/22): The most important question for librans must be answered first; yes, there is a new romance for the unmarried Scales this month. If in an LTR already, this aspect will rekindle the tenderness and love. Librans, at their best, represent love, peace, and social happiness. The Libra female is better at being alone than her male counterpart. However, there can be a mental imbalance for solitaire Scales of either sex. The 7th is an ugly day. Take care driving that day. There will be many drunk or distracted drivers on the roads. Any service needs are better scheduled after the 13th. Strange, but true, the 19th shifts the excitement to a work setting or frame of mind. There is also a looming decision to be made.  It probably pertains to work time vs. home time. Responsibility usually requires sacrifice. Hopefully, you can make those at home understand. You always look at both sides of life choices before letting someone else make the decision. This time, you must make the final decision. It helps to make a list of the possible consequences vs. the benefits. Hopefully, you can squeeze a romance into all this.

Scorpio (10/23-11/21): Jupiter stays retrograde in your Sign until the 10th of July. It can put happiness on hold as it has a way of dredging up old memories of happier times. If you are waiting for certain ceremonies or travel plans to work out, it can be a frustrating time. Jupiter is like a teacher you really liked and trusted. They were probably smart, fun, and sexy. Anyway, back to the point; when Jupiter goes retrograde in your Sign, it brings new revelations, It dredges up memories of happier times, and it asks you to recognize a higher meaning to your recent, or upcoming, good fortune. This is a blessed time which lasts for a year. Meanwhile, be careful driving on the 7th. Don’t listen to bad advice that day. The 11th looks much better. A bright and shiny partner has a cure for the blues on that whole weekend.  Finally, you are able to get some answers and good advice on the 25th. The aspect that day can bring different effects to different birth charts, but for many Stingers it tends to arouse the passions. Other factors, like Pluto being retrograde, can weigh heavy on the mind. Introspection should not lead to lethargy as Mars builds internal energy, which needs an outlet. Balance is an important element to your May.

Sagittarius (11/22-12/21): Your Sign ruler is Jupiter, which remains retrograde until July 10th. Jupiter is working to modify parts of your character make-up. This process goes with a tendency to be more reclusive since last October. This is a year to finish a 12 year cycle of learning and growing. As Jupiter passes through your Solar 12th house, it can help you to recapture old memories and lessons learned. You will begin a new 12 year cycle in November. This is a good year to have a psychic or astrologer look into this future expansion phase. Someone can be disruptive to your serenity on the 8th. They could actually shine light into your solitude. The 15th is World-changing for us all. It is a dramatic energy shift with a chance for diplomacy, but there are disruptive and weird events from twisted logic. Alternative logic will be evident over the next 7 years. The Archers can easily roll with the changes, but there can be shocking endings, all around. You could experience strange bodily sensations over the next 7 years. Natural health awareness and practices are recommended. It’s time to finish up the old and prep for the new.

Capricorn (12/21-1/19): May will not be the most exciting month for the Seagoats, but quiet progress can be achieved by the 18th. Until then, your life can feel as boring as a long drive across a Texas desert. Then, on the 25th an object of beauty enters your personal gravitational field. This will help to boost any low blood pressure problems. Love and success are always the cure for Capricorns. Meanwhile, changes are going on around you. You begin to acquire a deep thirst for knowledge. Love appears suddenly in unexpected and unusual ways. You have a new creative inspiration, which needs expression. These 3 conditions occur off and on over the next 7 years. You are being shaken like a pecan tree to see what you can produce. Your “slow, but sure” ways have a nervousness that goads you into picking up the pace. The 23rd provides the energy for this. That starts a 3 day period of high productivity, despite a retrograde Saturn. This contradictory feeling of lethargy can be overcome by keeping a happy memory or thought. So, by using your willpower, there is much that can be accomplished before the month is over.

Aquarius (1/20-2/18): Quite aptly, the World puts on great displays of power and clashes before Uranus leaves the Sign of Aries. On the 15th, it moves into Taurus for 7 years. This will change your life as you shift from prayers to action. This changing of Signs will require a “powering down” of your electrical innards. You have been like a rocket for 7 years, but now you become more like a Tesla car. Still electrical, but more in touch with the Earth. Your thoughts become more domestic and your home trembles as you contemplate renovations. Run house! This can be a time of reflection, as the 13th compels you to look back over the past 7 years. Have you changed from all the personal revelations during that time? Be cautious as you enter new realms at mid-month. Respect traditions. You have had some healing from natural methods. These practices have cured some physical problems. Try not to mix natural products with man-made chemicals. That can only make matters worse. You will tend toward learning more about what nature has provided for your health. After years of human made cures, we might be getting the message about why there are so many side effects. Our organic bodies want natural and organic products.

Pisces (2/19-3/19): The Fish people have a natural sense of peace and beauty. You may find this oasis on the first weekend of May. At this time, you are drawn to the romantic, which has the component of the illusionary. You have had experience with this mood, so try to think first. Secretly, you are the most sensuous of the 12 Signs. By your very presence, you can turn the drab into something very magical and enchanting. Be sweet, be sexy, share your dreams with the World, or one special confidante. Your passion has a strong effect on those around you. There can be misunderstandings or even anger from some uptight people. Tell them it’s your mood, not theirs. The Universe supports whatever you do, so go for it. Act on those feelings because they are leading you to something good. So, negative encounters are only guideposts to a happier, more fulfilling place. Try another door. Your life is expanding into new realms. The pond gets bigger. A quick escape could be planned for the 24th/25th. An occurence on these days will have lasting significance until a later time of year. Pay attention to everything at this time.
