The Weekly Outlook from 18th May
Restless and versatile, you will know a little about a good many subjects in coming weeks as you go seeking and searching. Maybe you will be inclined to scatter your attention in too many directions at once or across too wide a field but you won't be bored. Towards the weekend if there are differences of opinion then you need to regard them as offering an opportunity to bring hidden tensions out into the open. That way you can clear them out of the way once and for all.
Your Monthly Horoscope for May
Foot down hard on the accelerator with fiery Mars, your ruler, in your own sign, you won't put up with delays or distractions and will brush any slow coaches to one side. Supported by helpful loved ones and family members you will need to steady down at points or you'll let your enthusiasm run away with you. Luckly Mercury and the Sun in practical Taurus will put the brakes on certain of your wilder impulses. You know you need to put security up as a priority rather than allow your indulgent streak to overspend. Though it may not be easy to find a balance. After midmonth there will be a drift over to chatty, flexible Gemini which will see your everyday schedule speed up. Though Mars moving into heavyweight Taurus will increase your determination and throw one obstacle your way up to the 26th which will take perseverance to overcome.
and Next Month's Horoscope for June
Your mood will be lightening throughout the month with a hop, skip, jump and chuckle Gemini Sun keeping your spirits up. Chattering away in good style, you'll be multi-tasking and scattering your energy in several directions at once. OK it means you will be skimming the surface and cutting corners but you will never be bored. Appreciative comments and gestures from everyday mates at work or in the neighbourhood will keep you smiling. Which does not mean you won't have to be sensible and practical at times, paying attention to details in money matters, but that will rarely slow you down. After the 13th you'll be flirting, having fun and attracting attention out on the social scene for several weeks ahead. Into the final ten days relaxing at home will be all-too-tempting and you will clear space for heart-to-heart chats with loved ones and give yourself a chance to get recent events into perspective.
Year Ahead 2026
As a fiery, adventurous sign, times of change and transition are not a problem for you though you may have odd moments of confusion and indecision. Saturn and Neptune moving through your own sign will find you both serious and sympathetic, aware that you need to leave the past behind, yet low in motivation or clear vision. Be grateful for moments when you draw closer to the special people in your life as you lower your defences. Jupiter moving through Cancer, your chart area of home and family affairs, will bring comfort and relaxation until July, as you snuggle up in familiar surroundings and find old tensions wind down. You?ll be content within yourself and then from mid-year you?ll be socially outgoing, determined to revive your leisure activities and have fun for the rest of the year. Your inventive ideas will bring you into contact with influential friends as you press ahead determined to make a difference and initiate constructive changes not only in your own life but also out in your community. Certain friendships will become intense and not always easy to handle calmly. Your outspoken approach will get at the truth but may not always go down well. A mixed bunch of eclipses will focus your attention on your future plans and your finances early on, giving you a nudge to up your game in both areas. From September onwards for several months finding a balance between a lively social life interspersed with quiet time for yourself will be important.
