Written in the Stars - Week of May 8


Venus in Cancer — Love becomes sentimental, protective and moody when the planet of love enters the sign of the nurturer. We're more emotional and attached now — and sometimes a bit needy. Snuggle and reassure your loved ones — quiet nights at home provide sweet shelter.

ARIES
March 21 — April 19
You're ready to go, like, yesterday, Aries. Your ruler, Mars, is chugging espresso next to mental Mercury in your House of Resources, and the ensuing chatter has filled you to the brim with ideas and inspirations when it comes to moving forward and making gains. This is extremely powerful, beneficial energy if you can keep your feet on the ground. The dark moon asks you to drop old, bad habits. Express yourself, but be diplomatic. Not everyone is as sure as you are that this is the bandwagon they want to ride. But you're not here to ride — you're the pilot. Move.

TAURUS
April 20 — May 20
There's no getting around it, Taurus — things have changed. Every element of your chart is saying that you need to get out of your old rut (which the stars say has sort of ejected you by now, anyway) and be willing to embrace new methods and ideas. You're full of inspiration right now, though you may be feeling a bit blocked up. You're used to doing things by the numbers, but with transformative Pluto excavating in your House of Journeys and Philosophy, you'd be well advised to follow your heart and shake things up in ways that excite you. Take risks; receive blessings. 

GEMINI
May 21 — June 21
It's all about connections for you this week, Gemini. You can expect some surprising, fun encounters with erratic Uranus skipping through your House of Allies. And with jovial Jupiter making a lucky angle with him from your House of Communications, you couldn't ask for a better time to handle things your way and get great results. Your ruler, Mercury, is being influenced by motivated Mars, so you may find that ideas fly through your head — make sure to write things down! You've also got the charm of Venus blessing your words. Speak your mind to get results.

CANCER
June 22 — July 22
Smile pretty, Cancer. Venus is blessing your House of Self for the next few weeks giving you an extra dose of charm, beauty and appeal. You could be on the receiving end of a sudden windfall or gift this week, since lucky Jupiter is making a happy angle with out-there Uranus. You may find yourself the driving force among friends or coworkers this week, so don't be surprised if you're asked to step up and take the lead on a project or adventure. Are you wrestling with old habits? Saturn is lending you some willpower and maturity to re-vamp your routine. Make it work for you. 

LEO
July 23 — Aug. 22
We all have obligations, Leo, but where would you go and what would you do if all you had to do was follow your inspiration? This week, the stars are asking you to have radical faith in your wanderlust. Where are you being pulled? Physically, mentally — most of all, spiritually? Unpredictable Uranus is conducting a revival in your House of Horizons, encouraging you to cast off any somberness or negativity, in favor of your natural, playful state. You're feeling more serious in your expression lately, but save the sighs. You are made of magic; transform your life.

VIRGO
Aug. 23 — Sept. 22
All structures require maintenance and adjustment, Virgo, lest they rust, weaken or collapse. Fundamental elements of your home life are being restricted and restructured now, and though some of the changes can be painful, they are certainly helping you grow and better stand on your own two feet. You may find yourself surprisingly moved this week — moved emotionally and moved to create. You can expect friends and admirers to seek you this week, with pretty Venus blessing your House of Friends and Associates. You are being guided — listen.

LIBRA
Sept. 23 — Oct. 22
People expect a lot from you sometimes, Libra, and you make it hard not to — the way you smile and nod when the requests come in make people think you're ready to accept it all, and more. And you say "Sure, happy to!" so sweetly, they don't even hear your teeth grinding. The dark moon is resting in your sign, forcing you to question your motives and desires — if you are displeased, you must look to yourself to remedy it first. Transformation is at hand and Jupiter is blessing your House of Allies, giving you the guides you need to find your new way. It's looking good.

SCORPIO
Oct. 23 — Nov. 21
It's time to get a little inventive, Scorpio, and you're likely to have a lot of fun while you do it. Though stringent Saturn is tightening his belt in your House of Wealth, things couldn't be looking better for you on the career front. Jubilant Jupiter is bellowing in your House of Career and Destiny, sending positive signals about you far and wide. Looking to move up in the world? Make your move. Between Jupiter's benevolence and Pluto's powerful speeches in your House of Communication, you should try to make the best kind of waves this week. Use your unique genius.

SAGITTARIUS
Nov. 22 — Dec. 21
There is so much fantastic potential energy humming in your chart, Sagittarius. You are truly coming into your own, but no hero's journey is complete without overcoming a few seemingly impossible obstacles. Powerful Pluto is counting his gold in your House of Wealth, indicating that major financial rewards are forecast. How to get it? Be yourself. Your ruler, Jupiter, is resting is your natural House of Horizons, bringing you incredible fortune and expansion. It's your ideas, Sag, your mental landscape that demands exploring. Surprising inspirations are forecast — crazy like a fox!

CAPRICORN
Dec. 22 — Jan. 19
Sometimes we have to let some things go to let ourselves grow, Capricorn. It's an incredibly powerful time for you. With Pluto doing a major re-branding campaign in your House of Self and the Dark Moon purging old ideas in your House of Horizons, it's time for you to finally shed that old skin. This is quite an intense phase, and the best way to use this pressure is to shift your perspective from your pitfalls to your potentials. Don't worry if your messages don't make sense to everyone — Neptune is casting illusions. Your stars say your closest allies will understand and grow with you.

AQUARIUS
Jan. 20 — Feb. 18
You normally pride yourself on your objectivity, Aquarius. You take a bird's eye view of everything and prefer to hold ideas, and often people, at arm's length. Yet, your chart is going through an incredibly emotional phase. Lucky Jupiter is filling your House of Partnerships with eagerness and joy — you long for the support of like-minded friends and partners. And with your ruler, unpredictable Uranus speaking in tongues in your House of Communication while Pluto tosses out old baggage in your House of Secrets ... let's just say you're ready to make a move. Move forward fearlessly.

PISCES
Feb. 19 — March 20
It's a fantastic week to be you, Pisces. Your charm, creativity and charisma are off the charts, and your stars are conspiring to drive you forward so you can find out exactly how much you're capable of. You can expect to get some recognition for your skills this week, with Jupiter blessing your House of Work. Promotions are possible, especially when you think outside the box and come up with new solutions — are you leading a team, band or campaign to victory? Be yourself fearlessly this week and rise to the occasion when you're called on — great rewards are forecast.
