May kickstarts with Mercury Retrograde!
There seems to be a lot of thinking happening in May. Plenty of reflection, realising then acting. Hopefully, we will become much wiser and calmer by the end of this month.
We begin with uncertain times as the month kickstarts with Mercury Retrograding. We do realise that emotional maturity and patience are both essential in getting through this uncertain time. Things will become clear by the second week as to what we must do to find our happy place. It mostly seems to stem from financial worry. Finding how you can establish a healthy relationship with your finances seems to be the theme of May. Rather than wallowing in your situation and regretting your choices, you break away from your negative thought patterns and go through your options for change. The good news is, things become more steady. This allows you to find harmony again within yourself and your relationships.
Happy May all!
HAPPY BIRTHDAY!
Taurus (Apr 20 – May 20)
It’s a month of soul searching. Life has become a rat race for you. And it’s time to evaluate your relationship with money and how you earn it. It could be that you are becoming jaded with the way you make your money. You may have been passionate about your job or business before but now it’s become an endless cycle of trying to earn more to keep up with the ever increasing wants and desires. You’ve been doing it for so long that now you can’t really see any other way around it. The key is to begin to acknowledge the thought pattern that there is no way out. And once you can see that it has been self-created, the next step of your journey can begin.


Aries (Mar 21 – Apr 19)
It’s going to be quite an emotional month for Aries. It might get hard to see the light at the end of your situation or just can’t figure out how to break away from your current circumstances. You may want to consider seeking help to gain a different perspective. Just to lift the veil off your eyes to see the possibilities ahead of you. Family relationships can be tough. There is a delicate balance you have to adhere to in order to avoid upsetting the harmony. There is no point regretting your past actions, focus on how you can weave back that broken trust.
Gemini (May 21 – Jun 20)
It’s a month of personal growth. Be bold and brave with your undertakings this month. Don’t shy away from challenges. In fact, pursue what you have always wanted to but felt you didn’t have the bottle to do so before or lacked the time or resources. You have an opportunity this May to strip yourself of any self-limiting beliefs and embrace that child-like curiosity you once had. Take up that hat making course, finish up that master’s course or launch the online shop you have been thinking of. Grab the moment and just go for it.


Cancer (Jun 21 – Jul 22)
There is trouble in the work area this month. You don’t feel like you are being heard. More work keeps coming your way and you find yourself juggling multiple roles. You raise your concerns but no one is paying attention. You are hoping that if you can prove yourself perhaps you will be noticed and you will be rewarded for your efforts. Truth is, no one has the time to take notice of you. It is down to you now, if you wish to continue in this endless juggling or put your foot down and move to greener pastures. It is going to be a test of your self-worth.
Leo (Jul 23 – Aug 22)
This is not an action oriented month. But it’s more of a quiet and reflective time. There are opportunities around you and all looking very attractive but the question is, which is the right one for you for this present moment. This isn’t a decision you can come to overnight. You are at a pivotal moment in your life and you cannot afford to rush with your decision. Pick your challenge wisely. It’s a month of planning and strategy so it’s best you hunker down and get to it.


Virgo (Aug 23 – Sep 22)
You have to take control of your situation this month if you want to achieve your goals. It’s time to put your passion, enthusiasm and courage on display as you go for what you want. You will need to gather the herd and be the role model that everyone has been craving for. Be clear and confident in your direction. There is a lot of work to be done to get things in motion and in the direction you want it to go as well.
Libra (Sep 23 – Oct 22)
The camaraderie you once had with a certain someone or a group of people perhaps even family members will come to an end. Or you will come to a realisation there is no point in flogging a dead horse anymore. Things have been fizzling over time. It’s time to accept the situation and begin the rite of passage of letting go and embracing new beginnings. It’s going to be an emotional month so hang in there.


Scorpio (Oct 23 – Nov 21)
You are nearly there but not quiet. Things have taken an unexpected pause. This may be a cause of frustration for you but it really shouldn’t be. Take it as an opportunity to review your progress so far. Are you still on track or have you veered of course? Are you still fulfilling the purpose you set out to? Be patient with yourself this month. Logic may not be appropriate at certain turns this month, trust your heart at such times. You will be led to where you need to be.
Sagittarius (Nov 22 – Dec 21)
You have some important decisions to make. This will be around the material aspects of your life like work, business, investments or even a will. You need to be very calm and centred when deciding. Your judgement must not be clouded by your emotions. I think by now you have learnt that. It’s also important that the outcome of the decision will be a fair one for everyone involved.


Capricorn (Dec 22 – Jan 19)
It’s a fantastic month for Capricorn. You have had several triumphs lately so take the time to acknowledge them and give yourself a pat on your back. Oftentimes, we are so involved in what we do and we forget to congratulate ourselves! That is important as it reminds us we have to carry on what we are doing to get the same results or work at getting better each time. There are also unexpected pleasant surprises this month. Family relationships are at their best. There is harmony and no bickering for a change! And there is also an opportunity at a new blissful romantic relationship or just growing strength to strength if you are already in a relationship.
Aquarius (Jan 20 – Feb 18)
You’ve got relationship challenges this month. It could be with your romantic or family relationships. You aren’t ready to give up on things and walk away. But what you may choose to do is spend some time away to assess where things have gone wrong. You are sticking around and going to make this work but you feel stepping away might help to calm the situation down and everyone will have time to ponder on what the crux of the issue is.


Pisces (Mar 20 – Apr 21)
Boundaries is the theme for the month for Pisces. Be clear about what you stand for and what your role is. It might be ok to stretch and help out someone on certain occasions but don’t create the image that you will gladly oblige everytime you are asked. I don’t think you have a problem with expressing yourself when you need to. But it’s when it involves someone near and dear to you, that’s when complications arise.
