May 2016 Horoscopes

Hello! Here are my horoscopes for you for this month. Just a reminder that I do offer astrology and tarot readings, you can book from my website bondwiththemoon.co.uk  (you can also message me to tailor a reading just for you). Happy May to you all :) 

Aries

21st March – 20th April

Work and career are in the spotlight this month, in very constructive ways. There’s a flow to find, a groove to settle into; where things transform and unfold around you with the greatest of ease. From around 6^th to 15^th is especially strong for this. Action-orientated Mars is your planet, and it’s still retrograde (appearing to move backwards) this month. There are huge positives to this, including returning or reconnecting with old places, projects or faces from the past; also turning points or changes in direction that expand and broaden your experience. Notice events around full moon time on the 21^st for this, as Mars is igniting and inspiring action and movement in powerful ways.

Taurus

21st April – 21st May

No messing around this month, Taurus. Get your head down and get stuck into projects, creative work, travel and learning. It’s a wonderful month for you, symbolised by the fresh, earthy and practical new moon in your sign on the 6^th. It means new beginnings, and a renewed sense of purpose and confidence (especially from 9^th), along with the feeling that certain things are just meant to be. It’s not all straightforward however, and at times you feel pulled in different directions, but when you remember your sense of security is so sound, then all the activity can enliven and inspire you, rather than deplete or deprive you.

Gemini

22nd May – 21st June

A sense of divine destiny and purpose pervade the month. It’s as if a complex weaving of threads from past, present and future are finally pulling together and converging into a pattern you recognise, value, and want more of. Don’t get in your own way with doubts, go with the flow (especially from around the 6^th to the 15^th), and notice how the universe always gets the timing spot on, with miracles of synchronicity playing into the most mundane down to earth details. A remarkable relationship-themed full moon on the 21^st is a focal point for all this, just as the sun moves into your sign for the next few weeks.

                                                                     

Cancer

22nd June – 22nd July

The new moon on the 6^th indicates new beginnings linked to key relationships, friendships, groups and gatherings. It’s busy in this area of your life all month (especially from 6^th to 15^th), and there’s important communication and information (8^th, 14^th and 23^rd). This new moon also links to hopes and dreams for the future, and as the planets are in exactly the right mood for making wishes come true (especially 6^th, 9^th, 14^th, 21^st) make sure you stay in the right mood to receive. Not always easy as there are challenges, including sticking points and stalemates (especially around 26^th) but it’s worth the effort of keeping your heart and mind open and ready for a miracle.

Leo

23rd July – 23rd August

First half of May you’re in practical mode; work, finances, career or long-term plans have your attention. New moon on the 6^th is about new beginnings relative to all this, which might mean revisiting some goals or projects from the past but it’s still a new beginning as it’s about who you are now, not then. Delays, blocks, or feeling blocked creatively are all indicated by planet patterns for this month but it’s not a sign to give up, just work with it not against it. Busy activity around full moon time on the 21^st might move some stuck situations, or provide some welcome distractions until things are ready to move. 

Virgo

24th August – 22nd September

May is a month for experiencing a change of direction in your approach to certain situations (noticeable from 9^th and 23^rd); towards renewed faith in yourself and towards looking forward and moving forward instead of looking to the past or re-treading old, familiar ways as you have been recently. May is also about expanding horizons through travel, or education and learning; particularly if you’re returning to it in some way, perhaps rediscovering a subject, renewing a project, or revisiting a favourite destination (6^th, 8^th, 14^th, 22^nd link to this). Sometimes, especially by final week (26^th), there are sticking points or stalemates that can make you second guess earlier progress, yet progress continues.

Libra

23rd September – 23rd October

It’s a month of change and transformation, and it’s likely involving something you’ve been waiting a while for. There’s support and assistance available when you need it, especially at the beginning of May, and it’s useful and practical help, that leads to doors opening and to great new opportunities (notice events around 8^th, 9^th, 14^th and 21^st for this). It’s the sort of month where end up with the new job, get the promotion, or get the business opportunity, even though it’s also the kind of month where you might feel you’re driving with the brakes on at times. Just shows that things don’t have to be perfect in order to work out well.

Scorpio

24th October – 22nd November

There are a few planets retrograde (appearing to move backwards) this month, including both your ruling planets (Mars and Pluto). It means changes of direction and unfinished business; perhaps the past is more prominent in your mind, or a message or convo needs repeating. Whatever it is, there’s also a fabulous new harmony in relationships to tap into (especially from 6^th to 16^th). This is love and romance but also friendship or business, as our soulmates appear in many forms. It’s a productive month; boxes are ticked, and long lists too, so hold your nerve through any limitation or restriction as it’s worth the hassle.

Sagittarius

23rd November – 21st December

You might not always feel the most confident you’ve ever felt this month (especially final week), yet the planets clearly suggest this is a time when some long-term plans and ambitions are moving forward whether you’re ready or not (especially related to work). There’s a wonderfully supportive and harmonious vibe around all of May, so the message is don’t wait for perfection there’s no time like the present. It’s a down to earth kind of month; it’s practical and industrious, yet serendipity sparkles brightly enough to make you wonder why you ever doubted yourself or circumstances in the first place (especially 6^th, 9^th, 14^th, 21^st and 22^nd).

Capricorn

22nd December – 20th January

It’s an amazing month of change and transformation for you, indicated by a new moon on the 6^th of rebirth, renewal and refreshment; particularly linking to creativity, entertainment and matters of the heart. The planets speak of stability and continuity despite some quite significant changes of mind and direction throughout May, so relax and be receptive to the natural cycle of events, allowing yourself to trust the bigger picture and your place within it. The 8^th, 9^th and 14^th are more stand out days for this. Also, all month, and especially from 22^nd, there are links to March or last August, and what feels like a test of faith likely brings golden opportunity.

Aquarius

21st January – 18th February

There’s loads of activity around home and family for much of the month, starting with a new moon on the 6^th that speaks of new beginnings, reconnections, renewals and updates that are ongoing all May, but especially around 8^th, 9^th, and 14^th. There are important turning points and some changes of direction too from the 9^th, especially the adventurous full moon time from the 21^st. This full moon focuses on movement and momentum involving friendships, gatherings, group support and teamwork. There are certain limits or restrictions that might challenge you (especially during final week) but expansion and progress is the shape of things to come.

Pisces

19th February – 20th March

For much of May, especially up to midmonth, there’s lots of focus on new or renewed communication, relationships, and involvement with groups and gatherings. New moon on the 6^th spotlights the new beginnings, and there’s an unusually smooth harmony and flow with all this that firstly brings you a welcome sense of stability and security, and secondly brings developments, progress and expansion (it’s not all straightforward, but it is easy to run with changes). From around the 20^th the focus shifts to long-term plans, status and reputation (especially work and career). There are challenges with this, and what happened in March or last August might be relevant too.
