Pisces Monthly Horoscope May 2018

Pisces (Born February 20 to March 1) and Pisces Ascendant 0 to 10 degrees Pisces:

May 2018 Pisces Horoscope: Love, Career, & General Trends

The Sun this Month: Central Focus, Consciousness

Until May 21st:

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 21st forward:

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.

Venus this Month: Love, Romance, Social Life, Comfort

Until the 19th: 

Venus continues to transit your solar fourth house now. Domestic relationships and the home environment tend to be especially harmonious and peaceful during this cycle. You may have a desire to decorate your home with better quality items or more attention to aesthetics. An inner sense of peace and security tends to dominate now, or the desire for peace motivates you now. Your affections are strong but you don't wear your heart on your sleeve just now, preferring quiet moments with loved ones.

From May 19th forward: 

Venus warms your solar fifth house. This is an expressive period for the goddess of love! It's natural for you to turn on the charm without even lifting a finger. You are especially attracted to aesthetic forms of recreation. You feel a little more playful now, and love matters tend to be laced with a touch of drama. That shouldn't be a problem--in fact, you kind of like it that way for the time being. More loving and appreciative relationships with your children may also figure now. Your powers of attraction skyrocket during this cycle. Yet, you are not aggressive in your approach to love. Instead, you attract more if you allow yourself to be pursued during this cycle. Creative self-expression of any kind is favored at this time. At this time, you instinctively know how to place yourself in the best light in order to make a good impression on others. Any love affair begun now will be characterized by good cheer, having fun, and a fair share of emotional drama!

Mercury this Month: Communications, Learning, Connections, Transportation

Until the 13th: 

Mercury continues to transit your solar second house. You might play with various ways to increase personal funds, resulting in more than one avenue for monetary gain. Avoid letting undue pressure from others push you into signing important papers that may create a serious financial commitment. Shopping when experiencing nervous tension should also be avoided. Your mind is always active with new ideas for an increase of income during this cycle. Brothers or sisters, or communications, may be a source of financial or material gain or loss now.

From May 13-30: 

Mercury is right at home in the third house and offers a natural curiosity, facility with words, and the ability to multi-task successfully. More time spent on the phone, writing emails, in the car making short frequent trips, chatting, running errands, communicating with neighbors and siblings, visiting friends and relatives, and doing paperwork is likely now. There can also be a tendency to fuss over insignificant matters now, however.

Also, "information overload" is also a possibility. This may be a busy time with neighbors, classmates, siblings, and community affairs. Your interests are especially varied now and perhaps scattered. It's an ideal time to pick up information from your environment and the people in it, as your tendency is toward a certain level of intellectual detachment just now. Your mind is often distracted, particularly when circumstances call for you to stick to the routine, so this is not the best transit for focusing on one task or project.

Your mind is especially inquisitive during this cycle, when learning, short trips, and other forms of communication and making connections, appeal strongly. Some are fidgety or nervous during this cycle, perhaps due to increased errand-running, phone calls, and the like. Others enjoy the challenge of tackling a variety of subjects. As well, talking, writing, and studying can be good ways to handle stress.

From May 30th forward: 

Mercury moves through your solar fourth house. This is a time during which you can enjoy increased powers of concentration. You may require solitude in order to get mental work done during this cycle. Your memory is more retentive than usual, and your thoughts often turn to personal matters, family, and loved ones. You might particularly enjoy discussions about your early life, the past, or family matters during this cycle. In fact, it's a great time to open up conversations with loved ones, as you are more rational when it comes to personal matters now.

Your mind often wanders to domestic concerns, and issues surrounding your home, family, and personal past. On the other hand, this transit sometimes indicates an especially busy, and perhaps hectic, period on the domestic scene. For example, you might take home work or find that people drop by your home often during this cycle.

Mars this Month: Energy, Drive, Courage

Until May 16th:

Mars continues to activate your solar eleventh house. You take a more direct approach to realizing your dreams now, rather than simply hoping and wishing.

You might find that you have more energy and enthusiasm for spending time with others, but arguments now may be with or on behalf of friends. You can be especially effective at encouraging others now, as well as at leading or organizing a group.

From May 16th forward:

With Mars moving through your solar twelfth house, this is the time to research and reflect upon your goals. It can be a time when past actions catch up with you--and this is not necessarily a bad thing!

It could also be a time when much of your energy is channeled into private matters, or when you prefer that others not observe what you are doing. This is natural--you may just as well do your best work alone for now. Unconscious behavior patterns could influence the way you assert yourself.

Some may experience insomnia during this phase, especially if they are not allowing themselves the chance to recoup and if they are not letting their intuition serve them. Others may enjoy a more active dreaming life (this includes day-dreaming), and, if allowed to run free, the imagination can serve them very well, especially with regards to goals and new concepts.

Overview Horoscope:

May 2018 Pisces Monthly Horoscope: May is likely to begin on a busy note, and end on a more serene one, dear Pisces. You are communicative and sociable, reaching out to others and enjoying the connections you're making in May. Later May brings a stronger desire to enjoy the peace and security of family life, however, and far less interest in venturing far from home. Teamwork and communication can strengthen bonds in the meantime. There can be a real scuffle of activity, learning, and communicating, in fact. There's likely to be an emphasis on learning, particularly self-taught or home-learning endeavors.

May can be busy, and the pace may reach maddening or overwhelming around mid-month. You could be making connections, reaching out, handling errands and daily affairs, and perhaps discovering and dedicating time to a special personal interest. Financial complexities are now unraveling, and dealings with a partner or financial institutions are more straightforward. You may be making bold moves now. There can be considerable motivation to realize a creative goal this month, as well. There are lovely aspects made from your communications sector to planets in your sign this month, suggesting you're expressing yourself with a distinctive flair. There can be discoveries of new ways to connect, whether this is about communicating or commuting, perhaps because current ones are not working well. You're enjoying more clarity with personal finances, partnerships, and family or home matters. Projects and pursuits that may be excessive come to light around the 8th. As joyful as your pursuits, studies, and personal interests are these days, you may have a little too much on your plate, and now is the time to reach a better balance.

You're reaching out to others and communicating in ways that inspire trust and confidence on the 11-12. You have the ability to appeal to many people and team up effectively to accomplish a goal. You seem to bring out the best in others and to support them or offer useful advice.

As mid-month approaches, tension rises. A Mercury-Uranus alignment on the 13th can detach you just enough that you put something you no longer need behind you. The New Moon on the 15th is about new beginnings and starting fresh, but this particular New Moon packs a real punch. This is because both Uranus and Mars change signs at the same time, and they form a clashing square aspect to one another. This combination can instigate quick changes, upsets, or surprises. The atmosphere can be agitated, and you can feel a lot of pressure to make decisions or to take action prematurely. An issue surrounding values, money, or questions of ownership can be in focus for you. You can also be temperamental about whether others value and respect you. Watch that you don't jump to conclusions now, but consider, too, that change may be just what you need now. And, it can be a breath of fresh air.

Uranus entering house three in your solar chart on the 15th is a big move. Note that Uranus will retrograde and return to your resources sector on November 6th and will move in your communications sector more permanently in March 2019. For now, though, you get a hint of an upcoming longterm cycle that revolutionizes the ways you communicate and connect with the world around you. During this cycle, communications, learning, and connections may be unpredictable and unusual, but also inspiring and exciting. You'll be opening up and expressing your more unique ideas. Your daily life is bound to become very colorful. Regular encounters with neighbors, relatives, and acquaintances, as well as everyday activities and business activities, may be changing quite dramatically. Also, your primary mental attitudes are evolving. As you think differently, you communicate differently. Your interests can become quite eclectic during this cycle. Studies may be erratic or part-time. Relationships with acquaintances, neighbors, students, and siblings, and learning endeavors evolve. You may become aware of some new and uniquely useful information, which puts a whole new slant on your life. While you’re not typically a person who blurts things out too quickly, this can be a theme now and in coming years! Be sure you make words work for instead of against you. New insights and developments in learning areas, studies, or with siblings may be part of all of this.

From the 19th forward, Venus travels through your romance and creativity sector, and this wonderful transit is excellent for a smooth flow of love energy in your life. It's a time when others enjoy your company, notice your most appealing characteristics, and are receptive to your ideas and invites. Upgrading and updating involving equipment and material things, as well as ideas, perspectives, and experiences are in focus. "Being yourself" is always encouraged, but right now you'll see instant proof of why this is so.

You gear up for a home-centered, back to roots time from the 21st forward as the Sun moves into your home and family sector. Since the 16th, in fact, Mars in your privacy sector has been encouraging you to slow down and take a break. You're more interested in taking time to yourself, and much pleasure comes from family and home life. The 23-24 is particularly suitable for employing good stress management techniques. Efforts made around the home, with domestic projects, and concerning activities with family can lead to nice advances. Your energy flows naturally with minimal interruption.

As well, your rulers, Jupiter and Neptune, have been in harmony since December, and this energy returns in fuller force in the last week of May. This can be an excellent time to meet someone through personal interests, shared beliefs, education, or travel. Communications thrive, and publishing can be successful. You may be going to entirely new places with your mind or body! Teaching, guiding, and learning are prominent themes. It can be a time of tremendous personal appeal as well as life-changing, positive experiences that expand your mind. The Full Moon on the 29th can bring a work matter to a head, which can be a bubble-bursting moment as you find yourself in high demand, but it's also an opportunity to shine.

Pisces (Born March 2 to March 11) and Pisces Ascendant 10 to 20 degrees Pisces:

May 2018 Pisces Horoscope: Love, Career, & General Trends

Overview.

The Sun this Month: Central Focus, Consciousness

All month:

The Sun is illuminating your communications sector now, suggesting "busy-ness" and movement. You are exploring and searching, making connections, and paying more attention to your immediate environment. Social interaction is in emphasis during this period, and is, for the most part, light-hearted.

Give other people a little extra time and attention, notice their efforts on your behalf, and strengthen your connections. You are more curious and alert than usual, and you could be quite busy with errands, paperwork, phone calls, and light socializing. Much energy is expended in understanding and adapting to your immediate environment. Siblings, neighbors, close relatives, friends, and co-workers may play a more important role than usual in your life during this cycle.

You are more interested in exploring your own neighborhood than you are of something entirely new. This is not a time of big adventure-seeking! Rather, it's a time of little adventures close to home.

Neither is this a time when you are especially focused. In fact, you could have a finger in many pies right now. You are especially resourceful, and you could find yourself enjoying (or seeking) attention for your intellectual know-how. The ability to express and communicate your ideas is extremely important to you at this time. You are eager to investigate new things, whether scientific or technical.

Venus this Month: Love, Romance, Social Life, Comfort

Until the 3rd: 

Venus continues to play in your solar third house during this period, indicating a more light-hearted, curious, and intellectual approach to love and pleasure, as well as a more easygoing communicative style.

During this cycle, you are especially charming in your communications. Your words are soothing, and you tend to use words to smooth over problems that you see around you. You are mostly cheerful in your approach to others, and perhaps somewhat intellectual.

Essentially, you are quite companionable during this cycle. You enjoy talking about what interests you, and you see value in the exchange of ideas. Sometimes this transit brings benefit through siblings, communications, or short trips. Good companionship is as equally important as romance to you during this cycle.

You prefer an intellectual, communicative, and witty partner just now, and your powers of attraction increase through expressing these types of qualities. You are most attracted to wit, cheerfulness, and verbal rapport, and you are especially good at mediating conflicts now. If you were to begin a romance or friendship during this cycle, it would likely be quite light-hearted.

From May 3-28: 

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.

From May 28th forward: 

Venus warms your solar fifth house. This is an expressive period for the goddess of love! It's natural for you to turn on the charm without even lifting a finger. You are especially attracted to aesthetic forms of recreation. You feel a little more playful now, and love matters tend to be laced with a touch of drama. That shouldn't be a problem--in fact, you kind of like it that way for the time being. More loving and appreciative relationships with your children may also figure now. Your powers of attraction skyrocket during this cycle. Yet, you are not aggressive in your approach to love. Instead, you attract more if you allow yourself to be pursued during this cycle. Creative self-expression of any kind is favored at this time. At this time, you instinctively know how to place yourself in the best light in order to make a good impression on others. Any love affair begun now will be characterized by good cheer, having fun, and a fair share of emotional drama!

Mercury this Month: Communications, Learning, Connections, Transportation

Until May 19th:

Mercury continues to transit your solar second house. You might play with various ways to increase personal funds, resulting in more than one avenue for monetary gain. Avoid letting undue pressure from others push you into signing important papers that may create a serious financial commitment. Shopping when experiencing nervous tension should also be avoided. Your mind is always active with new ideas for an increase of income during this cycle. Brothers or sisters, or communications, may be a source of financial or material gain or loss now.

More time spent on the phone, writing emails, in the car making short frequent trips, chatting, running errands, communicating with neighbors and siblings, visiting friends and relatives, and doing paperwork is likely now.

Some are fidgety or nervous during this cycle, perhaps due to increased errand-running, phone calls, and the like. Others enjoy the challenge of tackling a variety of subjects. As well, talking, writing, and studying can be good ways to handle stress.

Mars this Month: Energy, Drive, Courage

All month:

Mars continues to energize your solar tenth house now. You bring much energy, enthusiasm, and drive to your career or to directing activities in your life during this cycle. You may be quite competitive during this period, preferring to achieve and accomplish things on your own. This attitude can, in some cases, be seen by others as an instigating or otherwise offensive energy, so be aware of that possibility.

This is a strong time for directly pursuing your goals, and, if you need that extra push or oomph to get a plan going, particularly a professional one, or to assert your desires, then this is the time. You are self-motivated, and your enthusiasm can be harnessed if you so choose.

Pisces (Born March 12 to 20)
AND Pisces Ascendant from 20 to 30 degrees Pisces:

May 2018 Pisces Horoscope: Love, Career, & General Trends

Overview

The Sun this Month: Central Focus, Consciousness

Until May 10th:

The Sun continues to transit your solar second house. This is the most "financial" period of the year for you. You might have a more materialistic view of life for the time being, or you have an increased interest in your own possessions, during this cycle. You are more attracted to objects and possessions that give you a sense of comfort, status, or luxury now.

You probably should be on the lookout for a tendency to create your own financial stress due to extravagant spending habits. At this point in the year, you are unlikely to take many risks, however, and you can be quite resistant to change. This is a time when "comfort zones" are more important to you than usual--you value the familiar.

From May 10th forward:

The Sun is illuminating your communications sector now, suggesting "busy-ness" and movement. You are exploring and searching, making connections, and paying more attention to your immediate environment. Social interaction is in emphasis during this period, and is, for the most part, light-hearted.

Give other people a little extra time and attention, notice their efforts on your behalf, and strengthen your connections. You are more curious and alert than usual, and you could be quite busy with errands, paperwork, phone calls, and light socializing. Much energy is expended in understanding and adapting to your immediate environment. Siblings, neighbors, close relatives, friends, and co-workers may play a more important role than usual in your life during this cycle.

You are more interested in exploring your own neighborhood than you are of something entirely new. This is not a time of big adventure-seeking! Rather, it's a time of little adventures close to home.

Neither is this a time when you are especially focused. In fact, you could have a finger in many pies right now. You are especially resourceful, and you could find yourself enjoying (or seeking) attention for your intellectual know-how. The ability to express and communicate your ideas is extremely important to you at this time. You are eager to investigate new things, whether scientific or technical.

Venus this Month: Love, Romance, Social Life, Comfort

Until May 11th: 

Venus continues to play in your solar third house during this period, indicating a more light-hearted, curious, and intellectual approach to love and pleasure, as well as a more easygoing communicative style.

During this cycle, you are especially charming in your communications. Your words are soothing, and you tend to use words to smooth over problems that you see around you. You are mostly cheerful in your approach to others, and perhaps somewhat intellectual.

Essentially, you are quite companionable during this cycle. You enjoy talking about what interests you, and you see value in the exchange of ideas.

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 6th: 

Mercury continues to transit your solar first house. During this cycle, you are more communicative than usual. However, this doesn't necessarily mean that conversations are at their best right now, simply because you are more interested in expressing yourself than listening! You are especially alert and a little cerebral now. You have a receptive audience for your ideas.

From the 6-25: 

With Mercury in your solar second house, this is a strong period for analyzing your cash flow, income, and earning power. You are more practical and rational in your approach to finances during this period. With your conscious mind focused on money and possessions, as well as personal values, this can be a strong period for gathering new money-making ideas.

Alternatively, it could be a time when you tend to fret over your finances. Conversations tend to be practical rather than frivolous now. Financial gain may come through communications.

From May 25th forward: 

Mercury is right at home in the third house and offers a natural curiosity, facility with words, and the ability to multi-task successfully. More time spent on the phone, writing emails, in the car making short frequent trips, chatting, running errands, communicating with neighbors and siblings, visiting friends and relatives, and doing paperwork is likely now. There can also be a tendency to fuss over insignificant matters now, however.

Your mind is especially inquisitive during this cycle, when learning, short trips, and other forms of communication and making connections, appeal strongly. Some are fidgety or nervous during this cycle, perhaps due to increased errand-running, phone calls, and the like. Others enjoy the challenge of tackling a variety of subjects. As well, talking, writing, and studying can be good ways to handle stress.

Mars this Month: Energy, Drive, Courage

All month:

Mars continues to activate your solar eleventh house. You take a more direct approach to realizing your dreams now, rather than simply hoping and wishing.

You might find that you have more energy and enthusiasm for spending time with others, but arguments now may be with or on behalf of friends. You can be especially effective at encouraging others now, as well as at leading or organizing a group.

As joyful as your pursuits, studies, and personal interests are these days, you may have a little too much on your plate, and now is the time to reach a better balance.

You're reaching out to others and communicating in ways that inspire trust and confidence on the 11-12. You have the ability to appeal to many people and team up effectively to accomplish a goal. You seem to bring out the best in others and to support them or offer useful advice.

As mid-month approaches, tension rises. A Mercury-Uranus alignment on the 13th can detach you just enough that you put something you no longer need behind you. The New Moon on the 15th is about new beginnings and starting fresh, but this particular New Moon packs a real punch. This is because both Uranus and Mars change signs at the same time, and they form a clashing square aspect to one another. This combination can instigate quick changes, upsets, or surprises. The atmosphere can be agitated, and you can feel a lot of pressure to make decisions or to take action prematurely. An issue surrounding values, money, or questions of ownership can be in focus for you. You can also be temperamental about whether others value and respect you. Watch that you don't jump to conclusions now, but consider, too, that change may be just what you need now. And, it can be a breath of fresh air.

Uranus entering house three in your solar chart on the 15th is a big move. Note that Uranus will retrograde and return to your resources sector on November 6th and will move in your communications sector more permanently in March 2019. For now, though, you get a hint of an upcoming longterm cycle that revolutionizes the ways you communicate and connect with the world around you. During this cycle, communications, learning, and connections may be unpredictable and unusual, but also inspiring and exciting. You'll be opening up and expressing your more unique ideas. Your daily life is bound to become very colorful. Regular encounters with neighbors, relatives, and acquaintances, as well as everyday activities and business activities, may be changing quite dramatically. Also, your primary mental attitudes are evolving. As you think differently, you communicate differently. Your interests can become quite eclectic during this cycle. Studies may be erratic or part-time. Relationships with acquaintances, neighbors, students, and siblings, and learning endeavors evolve. You may become aware of some new and uniquely useful information, which puts a whole new slant on your life. While you’re not typically a person who blurts things out too quickly, this can be a theme now and in coming years! Be sure you make words work for instead of against you. New insights and developments in learning areas, studies, or with siblings may be part of all of this.

From the 19th forward, Venus travels through your romance and creativity sector, and this wonderful transit is excellent for a smooth flow of love energy in your life. It's a time when others enjoy your company, notice your most appealing characteristics, and are receptive to your ideas and invites. Upgrading and updating involving equipment and material things, as well as ideas, perspectives, and experiences are in focus. "Being yourself" is always encouraged, but right now you'll see instant proof of why this is so.

You gear up for a home-centered, back to roots time from the 21st forward as the Sun moves into your home and family sector. Since the 16th, in fact, Mars in your privacy sector has been encouraging you to slow down and take a break. You're more interested in taking time to yourself, and much pleasure comes from family and home life. The 23-24 is particularly suitable for employing good stress management techniques. Efforts made around the home, with domestic projects, and concerning activities with family can lead to nice advances. Your energy flows naturally with minimal interruption.

As well, your rulers, Jupiter and Neptune, have been in harmony since December, and this energy returns in fuller force in the last week of May. This can be an excellent time to meet someone through personal interests, shared beliefs, education, or travel. Communications thrive, and publishing can be successful. You may be going to entirely new places with your mind or body! Teaching, guiding, and learning are prominent themes. It can be a time of tremendous personal appeal as well as life-changing, positive experiences that expand your mind. The Full Moon on the 29th can bring a work matter to a head, which can be a bubble-bursting moment as you find yourself in high demand, but it's also an opportunity to shine.
