Aries – (March 20 – April 19)

I have a feeling that yours will be one of the happiest Sun signs to experience Mercury regaining direct motion on the 11th. Thankfully he moves quickly past the shadow of his previous motion by the end of May and you can finally make some headway. In the meantime, use this month to reorganize your finances.

Careful examination will reveal a critical area which needed your attention. You cannot be too detailed, and if you set things up correctly now they will serve you well for a long time. Events of the 19th and 20th are just a precursor of good things to come; you may be called upon to make a swift decision. Remain clear on where you stand, and be ready to do the right thing.

Taurus – (April 20 – May 20)

All of the effort you have been applying to your new image can yield a payoff by Full Moon on May 27th. This is a great month to work on harvesting rewards, Taurus; both financial gains and major personal strides are possible. But, to claim the prize you must walk into that dark closet and turn on the light. Your challenge lies in confronting the boogeyman and calling his bluff.

Pick just one thing you wish to really and truly transform, and work on it diligently. You can make that change now, permanently. The door to your intuition is being made ready to open, also. Over the upcoming months your impressions of the physical world will soften and you can walk on the earth with a heightened awareness of the unseen realms. We all know that this other world is there anyway; and now you see it ever more clearly.

Gemini – (May 21 – June 20)

I know you are still digging out with a shovel and pick axe, Gemini. Take heart and know that sometimes life is just curious and you are a master of inquisitiveness. But think about the good things, too!  For example, you are poised to hit a home run on the career front.

If you can overcome nervous tension zapping your energy, you might look around and notice that opportunities lie in your path just waiting for you to harvest them. But, you must dig through some rubble to clear the way. It seems to have matter and size, but the real weight that is holding you down now is that of your mental processes. Some of those old beliefs just need to be dug out and removed. Treasure your discomfort as a handy – dandy Universal cleanup crew.

Cancer – (June 21 – July 21)

Really Cancer, if you were a hen you might lay an egg. This is how the planetary energy of the New Moon on May 13th develops; it literally erupts with potential for new life. Do you have your vision ready? This type of energy begs for direction and delegation. Be ready to take action on the path of your highest dream. But you must work as if your life depended on the fruits of your labor; the egg business demands long hours.

The good news is that helping hands are plentiful as well as generous. Assistance is everywhere, you just need to be aware and organize the helpers. Crabs move quickly when necessary; this is one of those times when efficacy is of the highest value and worth any pric

Leo – (July 22 – August 22)

Mastery is a broad term, yet one which demands precision and excellence of effort. Embrace this call to refine and rework a recent project. Although it seems tedious, this work in progress is at a critical stage now. Your financial houses are begging for a clean sweep. Each astrological sign has recently had a unique set of stressful conditions and issues. Yours has to do with value of your work and exchange of money for services.

Some of you have already benefited from an infusion of unexpected Jupiterian good luck; others of your sign will do so this month. It all comes together after the New Moon of May 13th and before 1st quarter moon of the 20th. Be vigilant regarding opportunities; like a bubble in a gentle breeze, the big one floats by softly on the wind and may be hard to catch. But the prize is worth the effort.

Virgo – (August 23 – September 22)

As if you are completing a giant cosmic puzzle, the next piece falls easily into place and you breathe a sigh of relief. Yes, there are stressors and tensions to deal with, but you can relax with certain insight that on a very deep level your life has moved into a new phase of security and success.

Stay on the higher ground when you must choose between wasted times vs. small gains. Slow and steady effort makes for grand strides when looking at the big picture. The 1st key is to keep moving. May is your month to take a workshop and open the door to a new skill or interest; this opens the door with the 2nd key which is to integrate your new skill into something that brings you joy.

Libra – (September 23 – October 21)

It feels like everybody needs you this month, Libra. Take it as a complement when you are called at midnight to solve those urgent problems; just remember that somebody cares enough to think of you, and bless the gift of the present. Your input is a key that unlocks many doors now. The secret here is to check in with yourself and confirm that these problems are not just a reflection of your own inner angst.

Use your natural talent for negotiation to find balance for yourself and others. Mercury returning to direct motion on the 11th is good cause for a celebration, but wait, if possible, until the end of this month to finalize commitments. Your life just may look very different after the 20th than it did on May Day.

Scorpio – (October 22 – November 21)

May is a month of nuance and subtlety, Scorpio. Look to partners and interested others for assistance on your straight and narrow path now. You are piloting the craft of your life through a tender place of depth and deserve every bit of help you can muster. And make no mistake; your financial strength is a reflection of your power.

Call it a frustration or a revelation, but whatever you name it, the bottom line is that you must depend upon the input of others to sustain and secure your earning power. If your financial boat is already unsinkable, expect to be called upon to allocate some of that which you have so carefully nurtured. Remember, even the Lone Ranger had need of a reliable sidekick and good horses.

Sagittarius – (November 22– December 20)

The core issue now is your level of satisfaction. I mean real, honest, down to the bone how do you REALLY feel about things, Sagittarius. Remember, yours is a sign of truth and this means that you can only put off the soul level directive of following your rainbow for short periods. Then, either spring turns into summer, or all hell breaks loose.

The deeper question now is: how to get to where you’re going and maintain integrity with full value, which also addresses the bottom line of your earning power. Time as you know is an irreplaceable commodity; but you also realize that people cannot really be bought or sold. Actually, keep this in mind when you ask questions; the answer is found through evaluation of all costs.

Capricorn – (December 21 – January 19)

You remain a cornerstone to your friends and social community, Capricorn. Somebody has to keep it together! Who better than you?  This powerful earth based month harmonizes well with your Sun sign; cultivate peaceful energy by spending quality time in your garden, or with art and music. The field has been plowed and is now being tilled to refine your seeding ground.

The Full Moon in Sagittarius on May 27th illuminates your 12th house of karma and collective destiny. This house also allows for time to fulfill a perfect ending which in turn opens the door to new beginnings. To stand on this threshold of destiny you must confront ghosts from your past. Make note of the appearances, some will be visions you least expect. However, resolution of these relationships and issues will unquestionably open the door to a bright new future.

Aquarius – (January 20 – February 17)

Can you feel the air of anticipation that surrounds you, Aquarius? It’s as if the ethers are charged with electricity from your ruling planet, Uranus. Use this month to finish up some details and prepare a foundation for your future. A solid and secure base of operations provides a launch pad for all that you wish to create.

Perhaps the challenges of the recent past have caused you to disconnect a bit from being grounded and present; check in with your inner core. This is a great month to spend time touching the earth and connecting with loved ones. Strengthening and refining your inner self will immediately shape up any exterior difficulties which may be present. Some of you will even find a new home where you nurture your deep inner core self.

Not sure about signing on the bottom line; remember the rules of Mercury retrograde and if possible wait until the end of this month. Monday the 24th is a good day to make that commitment; by then you will know for sure, and be ready.

Pisces – (February 18 – March 19)

You must feel as though you are ready for some peaceful R&R, Pisces. With both Uranus and Jupiter in your sign the pace has been hectic, and sometimes having too much fun feels just like work. The key word that ties things together this month is: ‘adjustment.’ As a mutable sign, adaptation is one of your specialties and you generally take unforeseen changes in stride.

However, you cannot escape having to outsmart a Wiley Coyote from time to time. These dogs are just messing with your mind, but they like to make a grand show of it. Do not let any detractors devour the child of your creativity which is ready to burst forth. Think deeply and choose carefully between what you want and what you need. The ‘needs’ are calling he plays now; take care of business and soon you have much more of what you want.
