May Horoscopes

STAR OF THE MONTH

TAURUS 21 APRIL - 20 MAY

Forget about wanting a quiet life - it won’t happen soon. During the next year, you’re swept along by high drama, with very little time for rest. This turns out to be a mixed blessing. On the one hand, you’re encouraged to do what you do well, and such confidence can only be positive. But having this much licence gives your less responsible side free reign. The trick lies in balancing the two. That means dividing your time more evenly between work and play. The only limiting factor is a potential financial hiccup in September. But as long as you treat others fairly, your affairs should soar.

GEMINI 21 MAY– 21 JUNE

A forward-moving Jupiter encourages serious breakthroughs at work. Though right now, you might still be feeling a tad overworked and underpaid, in the next six months, recognition and rewards will follow. Business travel is likely, as is an increased cash flow. The biggest threat, however, seems to be extravagance. As more cash arrives, there seems to be little chance of it accruing interest.

CANCER 22 JUNE – 22 JULY

With delightful Jupiter settling in your sector of adventure for the next year – you’re encouraged to expand your horizons. You’ve always been curious about the world, but even more so now. From here on, there’s too much happening to keep you still. Even unexpected turns of events won’t faze you. For many, love and work become entwined. And by year’s end, you’re well and truly heading towards serious commitment.

LEO 23 JULY – 22 AUGUST

The cosmos is generous to most Leos this month. The Sun offers professional support, Mercury brings spontaneity to friendships, and Jupiter showers you with romance. The really good news? For many months to come, love and commitment become entwined. At work, use your unique talents to establish solid groundwork. You’re due a public debut but remember – preparation is the key.

VIRGO 23 AUGUST – 22 SEPTEMBER

Jupiter settles in your love and relationship sector for the next year – with Cupid aiming his intoxicating arrows your way. Set your sights on specific targets if there is any desire or heart you’d love to capture. With so many admirers, you needn’t work hard. A year of wine and roses, perhaps? At work, too, new ideas and projects dominate your mind. For many, this means a step up the career ladder.

LIBRA 23 SEPTEMBER – 22 OCTOBER

Many people believe the more you do, the more you get to do. Over the next year, Jupiter rewards most of your previous efforts. You’ll be super busy, but should the unexpected happen – don’t fight it. You’ve been waiting for something big to happen, and, finally, the cosmos creates substantial new business opportunities. Jupiter also steps up the social pace. What follows could be lasting love or friendship.

SCORPIO 23 OCTOBER –21 NOVEMBER

With Jupiter settling in your house of decadence, your appetite expands this month - from love to food and everything in between. You want more of everything, and there’s precious little reason why you can’t have it. You’re motivated to find new ideas, to cross new frontiers and taste new pleasures. If skills are lacking, you gain them; if a vital link is missing, it will be found. Romance appears equally fortuitous.

SAGITTARIUS 22 NOVEMBER – 21 DECEMBER

Home and personal concerns monopolise your time this year. For many, recent months have felt lonely, so a sense of belonging becomes important. For singles, the lure to coupledom may be hard to resist; meanwhile, duos rekindle commitment. This year is also about financial growth. Thanks to a well placed Jupiter, expenses are more easily met, and luxuries become more affordable.

CAPRICORN 22 DECEMBER – 19 JANUARY

Jupiter pulls you in the right direction this month. Yet, being stubborn, you could resist its benevolent tug and cling to old ways. Remember, where you simply give an inch, you could gain a mile. Too often, you wait for events to push you into a decision that you should reach on your own. Go on, Capricorn - take a leap of faith. You’ve been set certain karmic goals, which undoubtedly, you’ll reach.

AQUARIUS 20 JANUARY – 18 FEBRUARY

Jupiter brings blessings wherever it settles, and for the next year, it’s finances and your hopes and dreams that soar. Whether it’s to fulfil a long-held ambition or start your own business – success beckons. You’re drawn to new, unusual groups and organisations. Of course, some discretion is advised. After all, when Jupiter moves on in a year – you may want to make a quick exit too.

PISCES 19 FEBRUARY – 20 MARCH

Jupiter, the planet of joy and luck, sidles into your own sign for many months to come – cheering you on romantically, financially and spiritually. Jupiter expands whatever it touches, so go big when the situation arises. Soon, there could also be something very special to celebrate. One warning: expansion can also mean excess. Keep your diet and spending under control.

ARIES 21 MARCH – 20 APRIL

With Jupiter transiting into your sector of the subconscious, you may feel drawn to esoteric subjects. Join a group or find a person who may introduce you to a new philosophy or spiritual outlook. You’re also guided by your dreams and intuition. If and when you truly need help over the next few months, it’s likely to arrive in the form of friends or, perhaps even, angelic sources.
