Overview for this Month: Aquarius (All)
May 2022 Monthly Horoscope Overview for Aquarius:
Home and family matters are in strong focus as you start the month, dear Aquarius, after a very recent Solar Eclipse in your solar fourth house. Even so, the month promises special attention to personal interests, making connections, and intellectual stimulation. You're motivated to take action that helps boost your sense of security and comfort, and you have support from the cosmos for these efforts. Reorganizing your personal space enables you to think clearly and produce more.
A Jupiter-Pluto transit helps connect you with what you truly want and value, and this insight can alter your approach to money, home life, and possessions. With money, talents, and valuables, you could find yourself better positioned to manage or work towards reaching your goals. You may discover old resources or ideas that benefit you in the present. Income boosts can come through imaginative undertakings, helping professions, or behind-the-scenes work. Developing your talents can be satisfying and empowering now. You approach your earnings or belongings more positively, bringing in different results. Turning a financial matter around can be a relief. This transit can drive you to make life a little more comfortable and content.
You're likely to entertain some unique new creative ideas about money or domestic matters, or your novel approach to problems can help you put a negative situation behind you. Different methods applied to the home, family, money, living conditions, or living arrangements can be helpful. It may be time to upgrade, improve, and innovate. You could be a little bolder in business or with money, and you're ready to take action on a matter that has been lingering or stagnating. It's possible you need disruptions to routines for your life to move forward.
There can be some renovations and improvements in your home or with family relationships this month. You have a chance to begin anew, and this might involve some reorganizing or even relocation for some.
Venus, Jupiter, and Mars move out of your resources sector on the 2nd, 10th, and 24th, and into your solar house of communications. As such, May becomes busier and more connected for you as it progresses. There can be new ideas and subjects that capture your interest. It's an exciting time for communicating with more warmth and spirit and for enjoying your personal interests. You approach learning and communicating in new and exciting ways, and you often feel pleasantly engaged.
Jupiter's move into your communications sector on the 10th is significant. This longer-term aspect will play out in two sessions–this one is the first, lasting from May 10-October 28. New ways to communicate, learn, and get around can open up for you. There can be a real tendency to want to do it all, forgetting your limits in terms of time and energy, but your enthusiasm for learning new things and taking on new projects can be incredible. Good energy is with you to share your ideas, write, and join a cause.
Mercury is retrograde from the May 10th to June 3rd, and there may be some backtracking over old problems and conversations, and perhaps even contracts and negotiations.
A career matter or responsibility can loom around the Lunar Eclipse on the 16th, but this can also be a time to gain recognition for your hard work. The drive to improve your home life can also motivate you to work harder or pursue a promotion or better position.
The Sun moves into your romance and creative expression sector on the 20th. You're more confident and ready to enjoy yourself. It's a smooth, supportive cycle that encourages a more self-expressive, free-spirited approach to your life. If you've been working too hard or overthinking, this is a time for finding ways to let go of stress and to add more playful or creative activities to your life. On the 20-21, you're in a great position to see a past matter related to hobbies, creativity, romance, or children in a brand new way. The information, conversations, or connections you make now can be integral to redirecting you along a new and improved path.
On the 28-29, you can feel much enthusiasm and independence with learning new things and exploring mental interests. You are ready and willing to apply yourself to your projects or work. The New Moon on the 30th is celebratory. You're finding fun ways to connect with your inner child. It can also be a time for bringing back old hobbies and pastimes.

Aquarius (Born January 21 to 30) and Aquarius Ascendant 0 to 10 degrees Aquarius:
May 2022 Aquarius Horoscope: Love, Career, & General Trends
May 2022
The Sun this Month: Central Focus, Consciousness
Until May 20th:
The Sun continues to put a spotlight on your solar fourth house. This is a period of recharge, of getting in touch with your innermost feelings, of connecting with your roots, and of spending more time and energy on home and family. Home and family matters capture your attention and are a strong source of pride now. It's a time when worldly matters are not as important to you.
Use this energy to find ways to improve your family relations and your home environment. During this heart-warming cycle, you would do best to allow yourself to explore your inner needs so that you can nurture yourself and others in a healthy, growth-oriented manner, in preparation for more outgoing times to come.
From May 20th forward:
The Sun illuminates your solar fifth house now. After a period of "nesting", you are coming out of your shell, ready to perform and to express yourself creatively. This is a very playful period of the year, when you are inspired creatively and emotionally. After a period of self-protectiveness, you are now more spontaneous and more willing to take risks. You take more pride than usual in your creations, your love affairs, your children, and your hobbies. Pleasure and amusement play an important role in your search for freedom of self-expression now. Show off your best colors!
You want others to take notice, and you are more sensitive to whether people appreciate you. More than any time of the year, this is the cycle in which you focus on having fun, enjoying romance, and expressing yourself creatively. Your hobbies, leisure time, moments spent with children, gaming time, and so forth, all come into focus at this time of year.
This is a cycle in which you find joy in expressing who you are--when your "inner child" comes out to play. This is a time when you are more flirtatious than usual, and when you might take a few risks in life--not only gambling with games but with life itself. You might be a bit of a showman at this time. You are likely feeling good in general, and you tend to spread the joy.
Eclipse
A Lunar Eclipse occurs on May 16th:
A general rule of thumb regarding eclipses is to avoid major decision-making in the week before and after an eclipse. This is because new information that could change our perspective often is revealed in the week after the eclipse. There is absolutely no need to suspend projects already in progress. Essentially, it's better to take in right now--to observe and get in touch with feelings.
This Lunar Eclipse stimulates your solar tenth house. Surprises surrounding career and reputation matters may be in store. Something that has been "in hiding" or brewing under the surface of things comes to light, or there is a significant fruition or culmination. This could manifest, for example, as a career change or challenge that you didn't expect, a surprise revelation from a coworker or boss, a new promotion or career direction dropped into your lap, and other such possibilities.
Venus this Month: Love, Romance, Social Life, Comfort, Pleasure
From May 2-27:
With Venus moving through your solar third house during this period, you are mostly cheerful in your approach to others, and perhaps somewhat intellectual, during this transit. Essentially, you are quite companionable now. You enjoy talking about what interests you, and you find great value in the exchange of ideas. Sometimes this transit brings benefit through siblings, communications, or short trips. During this period, you are most attracted to wit, cheerfulness, and verbal rapport. You are especially good at mediating conflicts. Smoothing over differences using your diplomacy skills figures now.
From May 28th:
Venus warms your solar fourth house now. During this cycle, you are especially fond of the life of the home and family. You are more receptive and gentle on a romantic level, and tend to be sentimental or nostalgic.
You may particularly value the aesthetics in and around your home during this period. If things are out of whack on the home front, you will do whatever you can to create a peaceful and stable atmosphere.
In relationships, loyalty and sensitivity are more important to you than typically. You might focus on ways to earn money in or from your home. This is a calming influence--a time when simple pleasures most appeal.
Mercury this Month: Communications, Learning, Connections, Transportation
Until the 21st:
Mercury continues to transit your solar fifth house. Increased communication with children, romantic partners, and people who share the same hobbies as you can occur now. Certainly, you are thinking about these people and about love and romance, child rearing, and/or creative pursuits more than usual. Mental exercises and competitions can be particularly enjoyable now. You express yourself with warmth and creativity, and you have an appreciative "audience" for your ideas now.
Mercury is retrograde from May 10th to June 3rd:
All Mercury retrograde cycles particularly affect you in terms of communications regarding intimate and financial matters, as well as communications with children or romantic partners, because Mercury rules these areas of your life. It's not a good time to file your taxes or apply for a loan. Instead, take the time to re-think your sources of income and how you spend your cash during this period, but put off finalizing anything for the time being. Speculation and gambling are not advised right now either.
Occurring in your solar fourth and fifth houses this time, extra care should be exercised when it comes to family relations, romance, children, and creativity. Be as non- judgmental as you can with family members. New initiatives surrounding home and property are best left for a better time. Re-thinking your romantic relationships or creative projects is possible now, but you should avoid jumping to any premature decisions. There may also be the need to revisit old, nagging issues with family members, or there could be some communication problems with them. Family members may be on edge. Try to hold off on household repairs if you can. Put off decision-making with regards to home improvement, moving, and family matters for the time being. It would be wise to be especially clear when it comes to communicating with friends, groups, intimate partners, family members, romantic partners, and children, or take this time to re-examine issues rather than communicating about them prematurely.
Mars this Month: Energy, Drive, Courage
Until May 24th:
Mars continues to energize your solar second house. You tend to put more effort into making money or making your life more comfortable and secure during this cycle. Your strong desire to be financially independent could lead to positive things, such as paying off debts or increased enterprise. The opposite side of the coin is asserting your independence by making impulsive purchases or taking risks with your money. You are more protective of the way you earn or spend money, as well as with the values you live your life by, and if others question you about these things, there could be arguments.
From May 24th forward:
Mars animates and energizes your solar third house during this period. You are likely to have many ideas and plans going during this transit, and you might be inclined to scatter your energies as a result.
Channelled well, however, this is a good time to sell your ideas to others, or to present your case in some manner. You may be especially busy running errands and communicating with others now.
More articulate than usual, you may also have a more assertive, self-centered, or provocative communication style at this time. As such, discussions might more readily become heated or they might escalate into arguments. If this is the case, it's likely because you are taking things very personally right now, or because you are over-identifying with your beliefs and ideas.
A tendency to be impatient or impulsive while driving or while performing manual tasks, generally with the hands, may lead to accidents, so it's wise to be careful on the road or while operating machinery or even using scissors! This is an excellent time for working on intellectual tasks with more vigor and passion.

Aquarius (Born January 31 to February 9) AND Aquarius Ascendant from 10 to 20 degrees Aquarius:
May 2022 Aquarius Horoscope: Love, Career, & General Trends
May 2022
The Sun this Month: Central Focus, Consciousness
All month:
With the Sun spotlighting your house of family and home, these areas are your instinctive focus during this period. Your family, home, property concerns, roots, and heritage come into focus and become a source of pride. You are likely quite preoccupied with feelings of security and your inner experiences. This is a time when you send down roots and seek a feeling of belonging. You could be thrust into a position of leadership on the home front.
Ego confrontations with family members are possible now, but the best way to handle this energy is to do your best to strengthen your relationship with your family and your home base. This is a time to do what you can to build trust in your family life and a strong foundation within yourself so that regardless of what you meet in the outside world over the next months, you have a secure place to return to. Besides spending more time tending to domestic affairs, the focus can be on cultivating and nourishing the inner foundations that support you and your growth. This is a time to collect yourself--to fill your well, so to speak.

Until May 11th:
Venus continues to grace your solar second house during this period. You might receive gifts or bonuses now, or you find much comfort in what you already own and have.

Aquarius (Born February 10-19) and Aquarius Ascendant from 20 to 30 degrees Aquarius:
May 2022 Aquarius Horoscope: Love, Career, & General Trends
May 2022
The Sun this Month: Central Focus, Consciousness
Until May 10th:
The Sun continues to highlight your solar third house--a time of the year in which you are most likely to be a "busy bee". Communications, short trips, errand-running, and general busy-ness feature now. You could have a finger in many pies, so to speak, as your curiosity is piqued by a larger variety of things than usual. Used well, this could be a period in which you come up with solutions to a number of problems. You are more inclined to take pride in your intellectual accomplishments and/or your ability to socialize and make connections.
From May 10th forward:
With the Sun spotlighting your house of family and home, these areas are your instinctive focus during this period.

New initiatives surrounding home and property are best left for a better time, but reworking and reorganizing your home can be especially fruitful now.
Mars this Month: Energy, Drive, Courage
Until the 11th:
Mars continues to activate your solar first house, supplying you with added energy to apply towards personal goals, and a more assertive and direct approach to the world in general.
This is an excellent period for physical training and exercise of any kind. The desire to be self-sufficient and independent is especially strong now. You are far less tolerant of being restricted by or dependent on others, and this is a good time to identify your personal strengths and take positive action to rectify situations that may have previously felt frustrating or repressive.
You might be especially attracted to personal challenges, and seeing just how far you can push. However, be careful not to push yourself (and others) too far.
From the 11th forward:
Mars energizes your solar second house. You have more energy at your disposal to make money, but also to defend your values. This can be a very resourceful time, when you make the most of what you have. You have much energy for new money-making projects, or for stepping up existing ones.
You may be over-identifying with what you have and own, and you could be trying to prove yourself (your worth) to others using money and possessions as the means to do so. If conflicts occur during this transit, they are likely to be over issues of ownership. This is a time when impulse buying is at a peak. You probably should avoid using credit right now, simply because your spending habits may be excessive and impulsive.

A Jupiter-Pluto transit helps connect you with what you truly want and value, and this insight can alter your approach to money, home life, and possessions. With money, talents, and valuables, you could find yourself better positioned to manage or work towards reaching your goals. You may discover old resources or ideas that benefit you in the present. Income boosts can come through imaginative undertakings, helping professions, or behind-the-scenes work. Developing your talents can be satisfying and empowering now. You approach your earnings or belongings more positively, bringing in different results. Turning a financial matter around can be a relief. This transit can drive you to make life a little more comfortable and content.
You're likely to entertain some unique new creative ideas about money or domestic matters, or your novel approach to problems can help you put a negative situation behind you. Different methods applied to the home, family, money, living conditions, or living arrangements can be helpful. It may be time to upgrade, improve, and innovate. You could be a little bolder in business or with money, and you're ready to take action on a matter that has been lingering or stagnating. It's possible you need disruptions to routines for your life to move forward.
There can be some renovations and improvements in your home or with family relationships this month. You have a chance to begin anew, and this might involve some reorganizing or even relocation for some.
Venus, Jupiter, and Mars move out of your resources sector on the 2nd, 10th, and 24th, and into your solar house of communications. As such, May becomes busier and more connected for you as it progresses. There can be new ideas and subjects that capture your interest. It's an exciting time for communicating with more warmth and spirit and for enjoying your personal interests. You approach learning and communicating in new and exciting ways, and you often feel pleasantly engaged.
Jupiter's move into your communications sector on the 10th is significant. This longer-term aspect will play out in two sessions–this one is the first, lasting from May 10-October 28. New ways to communicate, learn, and get around can open up for you. There can be a real tendency to want to do it all, forgetting your limits in terms of time and energy, but your enthusiasm for learning new things and taking on new projects can be incredible. Good energy is with you to share your ideas, write, and join a cause.
Mercury is retrograde from the May 10th to June 3rd, and there may be some backtracking over old problems and conversations, and perhaps even contracts and negotiations.
A career matter or responsibility can loom around the Lunar Eclipse on the 16th, but this can also be a time to gain recognition for your hard work. The drive to improve your home life can also motivate you to work harder or pursue a promotion or better position.
The Sun moves into your romance and creative expression sector on the 20th. You're more confident and ready to enjoy yourself. It's a smooth, supportive cycle that encourages a more self-expressive, free-spirited approach to your life. If you've been working too hard or overthinking, this is a time for finding ways to let go of stress and to add more playful or creative activities to your life. On the 20-21, you're in a great position to see a past matter related to hobbies, creativity, romance, or children in a brand new way. The information, conversations, or connections you make now can be integral to redirecting you along a new and improved path.
On the 28-29, you can feel much enthusiasm and independence with learning new things and exploring mental interests. You are ready and willing to apply yourself to your projects or work. The New Moon on the 30th is celebratory. You're finding fun ways to connect with your inner child. It can also be a time for bringing back old hobbies and pastimes.

About Our Monthly Horoscopes:
Our detailed monthly horoscopes are designed to reveal and interpret the current transits of the Sun, Mercury, Venus, and Mars in your solar chart.
Because these energies or transits do not unfold neatly into any given calendar month (many transits carry forward from one month to the next), you will find some of the energies continue from the previous month.
For example, the Sun might transit the seventh house of your solar chart from July 22 to August 22, so that you will find a similar interpretation for this transit in both July and August’s horoscope. This is normal and expected. While new months can hold new energy, transits don’t abruptly change because the calendar month changes.
These monthly horoscopes also include an overview paragraph, as well as other energies specific to the month, such as retrogrades, eclipses, or major outer planet transits.
The Highlights section reveals lunar cycle dates. Lunar cycles repeat themselves approximately every 28 days, so it is normal to see the same lunar peaks, such as “Your Personal New Moon” and “Monthly career peak” repeat themselves from month to month, but with different dates. They serve as a helpful guide to cycle peaks in different areas of life, such as financial, career, romance, and partnership.
The horoscopes are divided into three groups or decanates, and the differences between the groups are subtle in parts and large in other parts. For those who prefer a whole sign approach to horoscopes (classic), simply read the first decanate regardless of your birthdate.
