Aries — March 21-April 19: Mercury is in your sign until the 15th. This should give you plenty of time to undo any of the damage caused through it’s retrograde from last month. Alongside Mercury, you also have Uranus about to leave your sign on the 16th. The 11th through to the 14th should be interesting dates as Mercury and Uranus come into conjunction. See what is around for you at this time as you may be struck with sudden thoughts and ideas which you can put to good use. However, this is not a good time to say what is on your mind without thinking it through clearly as Uranus tends to act without thinking. You may also find that you meet someone who really takes your interest. Moon in your love area 25th and 26th gives you a chance to strengthen your relationship.

Taurus — April 20-May 20: Looks like you only have Mercury in your sign this year for a short period, that being from 14th to 30th May.

Given that there is also a new moon in your sign on the 15th, you can see how you may be experiencing a new lease on life with new thoughts, compliments of Mercury alongside sudden changes, compliments of Uranus.

The interesting turn of events for you in May is on the 16th when Uranus moves in to Taurus and forms a trine to your sign.

Capricorn — December 21-January 20: With no less than 3 strong planets in your chart this month you will certainly be wanting to get a lot done and aiming high to achieve this.

Aquarius — January 21-February 19: When you look back at the month of May, you may have the thought that this was the month where things started to go a bit wrong for you. The reason being is that Mars enters your sign this month on the 17th and the problem with this is that soon Mars will retrograde in your sign and hit off all the degrees it has gone over from the 17th to 31st of May. When this happens situations may resurface and you are still left dealing with them for a few months to come without a clear resolution. For this reason you need to be aware that your decisions now can have unpleasant consequences if you don’t fully understand what is going on. The Moon in your love area 20th and 21st is a time you really need to give to your partner.
Moon in Aquarius May 7, 8
Pisces — February 20-March 20: Mercury is in an area of your chart from the 14th to 30th giving you a head start to any communication you need to be getting on with.

Thus beginning a few years of it’s presence there and no doubt giving you valuable insights which often come about suddenly. With Mars also moving in to an area of your chart known for clouding a few issues, from the 17th, you really need to be on your guard that you know exactly where you are heading this month. Moon in your love area 22nd, 23rd and 24th is a time to relax and spend some special time with your partner.
