This Month in Astrology

April 2025 Monthly Horoscope Overview for Aries:

Even with some retrograde activity this month, dear Aries, it's a time of a personal new beginning. The Sun travels in your sign until the 19th, and you’re in the spotlight. It's a time of more visibility and special attention to your personal plans, needs, hopes, and wishes.

Until the 12th, while Venus continues its retrograde, you can be focused on past relationships rather than pushing forward socially. There can be many second thoughts and some back-spinning occurring now. This doesn’t take away from your personal attractiveness and, in some cases, may add to it as you seem a little mysterious or hard to reach! It simply suggests that you may not know what you want.

Venus turns direct on the 12th but remains in the sign just behind yours until April 30th, suggesting some natural cautiousness and reticence in the love or affection department. Things will push forward once Venus re-enters your sign, but until then, you’re processing and digesting recent experiences, and you’re not quite ready to make big decisions.

Mercury is following a similar path, although Mercury moves more quickly than Venus: Mercury turns direct on the 7th and enters Aries on the 16th. As such, on a communications and mindset level, you're coming into your own and catching up mentally sooner than you are on a heart level.

You’re in good shape for clearing out problem areas, even long-standing ones, through benefits to money matters, business, and personal things (material goods). It’s a time for practical yet innovative ways to improve your current financial state or confidence in your talents and self-worth. Meeting with someone or special information that helps you along can figure strongly as Saturn and Uranus harmonize.

Just after mid-month features some interesting shifts. By this time, Mercury and Venus have ended their retrogrades. Mercury moves into Aries on the 16th, and Mars moves into harmony with your sign on the 18th after a long hiatus. These put you in a better position to know what (and who) you want, but it’s also a good time to figure out how to get these things! Venus entering Aries on the 30th can help this theme along further.

Self-assertion is easy and natural from the 18th forward. Your romantic or creative life can heat up, although there can be some impatience in these areas. You’re seeking playful ways of expressing yourself. Slowly but surely, life feels a little more straightforward in love, pleasure, and comfort.

You’re more noticeable, connected, and engaged this month, and your personal impact is considerable. Especially with Mercury’s move into your sign on the 16th, you have more to say and share with others. When pursuing what and who you want, you’re direct, straightforward, and more confident than ever. You’re in an excellent position for decisiveness and credibility–you’re making a mark and leaving an impression. You might prefer to take the lead in mental tasks and make executive decisions.

The Full Moon in your partnership sector on the 12th prompts discoveries or epiphanies about your feelings or about a close relationship. If feelings of discontent magnify, they help motivate you to make improvements. Partnerships are changing, and this is a time when your needs for others become more apparent.

As the month advances, it becomes more and more about building your resources, manifesting results, and profiting from your talents rather than building your popularity and developing your personality.

Around the New Moon on the 27th, aim to start fresh with your money and business goals. The Sun begins its month-long transit of your resources sector on the 19th, and in the weeks following, you’re seeking a little more security and predictability than usual. It’s a good time to take stock, attend to your valuables, and better understand what you can accomplish. Your view of your capabilities is marked and realistic during this stabilizing cycle.

Pressures on the home front ease considerably from the 18th. Mars moves into your solar fifth house, ramping up your desires and animating your romantic life or creative world, and it’s a wonderful boost. This shift has been a long time coming! You’re confident and assertive and even more attractive than usual. Relationships are passionate now. You’re alert, ready to make changes, and willing to put yourself out there, and this is a winning combination. You can feel on fire with passion and creative energy, and your timing is much better than usual.

April 2025 Monthly Horoscope Overview for Taurus:

While there can be the need or desire to restore your energy and turn inward at times in April, dear Taurus, personal attraction runs high and you have much to discover on a social level. Especially as April advances, you feel readier to share and enjoy yourself. It’s a powerful period for your plans and initiatives. You’re also going through some exciting inner changes.

The Sun spends much of the month in your privacy sector, keeping things low-profile. As well, your planetary ruler, Venus, is retrograde until the 12th. As such, you have some catching up with resting, observing, and reflecting to do. You can feel a strong need for more personal, private, or down time. You’re drawing more upon your intuition and are not as influenced by sources outside of yourself. You’re still inclined to mix and mingle, but you tend to keep a lot to yourself.

Getting in touch with your innermost needs and letting go of attitudes and circumstances that no longer serve you well can be especially helpful. Until the 12th, especially, you can be somewhat withdrawn or reserved as you take the time to revise and perhaps question some of your plans. Matters from the past creep up and demand your attention.

You might be tempted to bury your feelings in order to concentrate on other areas of life or keep your deeper feelings private. Dealing with past relationships, love triangles, or sacrifices made for a lover can figure strongly in your life. You should watch for secrets surfacing that prompt you to rethink current plans and possibly even alliances. Friendships can enter tricky territory. The resurfacing of issues and perhaps even people from the past can be a theme. It’s a time of introspection, extra time for reflection, and a reassessment of your needs and wants.

With a Saturn-Uranus influence, you are respected in your group or circle and might form alliances with people with similar grievances. Focusing on stabilizing your social life or handling outstanding or unresolved issues related to your friendships or projects can help boost your confidence in yourself and faith in the universe, giving you a sense of mission or purpose. This is an exceptional period for coming to a healthy balance of realism and spirit or independence.

There can be a scramble to get your life into better working order around the Full Moon on the 12th, and the benefits of doing so are great. On the same day, Venus turns direct after a retrograde cycle, helping to clarify your social life. As such, you're entering a period of illumination at this time.

Mars finally moves forward and down to the bottom of your solar chart on the 18th – something it’s been teasing for a while. Mind you, this is not necessarily the easiest of transits, but you do need to get a break from the mental and physical excitement/pressure it’s brought to your life in recent months. What you should watch for with this influence is allowing the excess energy of Mars to fester and do its own thing. You’ll need to apply this transit constructively by putting energy into family activities or home improvement. Or, you may decide to once and for all handle a domestic or personal problem that’s been lingering for too long.

In the second half of April, you’re heading into your personal power period with some questions and reservations, but you’ll get there! Allow your mind to catch up with your heart before pushing ahead, and you’ll be in good shape now. The New Moon on the 27th fuels you with the motivation to start fresh. You could be driven to change your image or your attitude to new beginnings. This New Moon is in your sign, signaling a period of personal new beginnings and a chance to reinvent yourself.

Renewal, coming out of the background, getting attention, making decisions, and moving forward are all strong themes as you close the month. Still, there is a less scattered or hurried pace to your life. Problems that were swept under the carpet in your domestic life begin to emerge and demand resolution. Home and family life can be busy, animated, and energetic.

April 2025 Monthly Horoscope Overview for Gemini:

April brings opportunities to connect and enjoy yourself, dear Gemini. At the same time, a lot is happening under the hood. There can be much joy in a supportive or behind-the-scenes role.

The month finds you embracing your need for others with an emphasis on your social sector. Relationships and special projects can be motivators, getting you going and firing you up. There might be a conversation that opens up doors.

Venus has backed up into your career and reputation sector in retrograde motion and then turns direct on the 12th. This is much like having to go back over old ground to correct and refine matters before moving forward. In the process, you’re gaining valuable insight into your working relationships, reputation, and satisfaction for your current work projects or long-term goals. The edits you do now can be very useful. Career and reputation matters can be areas that require a second look. Let things flow and observe how things are unfolding with as much patience as you can muster. Mercury follows a similar, although quicker, path, turning direct on the 7th. With these shifts, in many ways, you feel that you’re moving forward.

From the 18th forward, Mars moves into your communications sector for a two-month stay. This is a significant shift as things feel like they're really starting to take off. You’re feeling good and confident about what you’re learning, sharing, and doing now. Enthusiasm is powerful for your ideas and connections. Aim to harness this transit’s excitement and courage while downplaying the haste and impatience of Mars in this area of your solar chart.

You might also need to tie up some loose ends now and in the coming month related to home and family life. This process will ultimately help stabilize these things.

With a Saturn-Uranus transit, you are in good shape to draw on experience, good karma, and your inner wisdom to further your career or material goals or meet your responsibilities to the outside world. Teaching or guiding may be connected with your work, and work done behind the scenes can pay off. You’re getting to a very healthy balance between optimism and practicality. Pacing yourself comes more naturally to you now. As you focus on stabilizing your work, career, or reputation, you’ll also answer the periodic calls for downtime, rest, and repose. Separating work and rest is essential now and also very successful! You’ll find that you bring a refreshed, spirited, and perhaps inspired “you” to your responsibilities and feel far more entitled to enjoy your downtime with a job well done. This is a time for more fully tuning out work while resting, for example, and working with few distractions when pursuing your goals. Focus is the key!

You’re on an important inner mission later this month. It’s a time to build a deeper connection with your intuition and a better relationship with yourself from the inside out. Forgiveness and understanding can help you move on and embrace your future. You might come to a better understanding of an old problem.

You head into your yearly phase of rest, recuperation, and reflection with the Sun's move on the 19th into your solar twelfth house. This will be useful as you move closer to your personal new year. Because the first few weeks of April may have been busy, this can come as a welcome relief.

At the same time, life remains engaging with the current Mars transit. You have increased energy for learning and personal interests, and there can be a lot of activity in your daily life, with little chance for focused work. Pressures to make money or push business and practical matters ahead are subsiding. So, while the last week of April brings a greater need and desire for time to recuperate and renew yourself, you also enjoy an active mind and vital interests. It’s about grabbing quality time when you can.

After the New Moon on the 27th, circumstances favor or require a new start with how you do your downtime. There can be events and realizations that help distance you from self-limiting secrets or situations, ultimately giving you more freedom. You can have great ideas about matters of the past and how to learn from and move past them.

April 2025 Monthly Horoscope Overview for Cancer:

There can be a strong focus on taking care of business this month, dear Cancer, but also some attention to learning, sharing, and your personal and social life. April is an important month for connecting with your goals and ambitions, and it’s a fine time to explore your need to share and connect. Healing yourself on multiple levels (physical, emotional, and spiritual) can figure strongly.

You've experienced a thrust forward in your work and public life after the Solar Eclipse near the end of March. Plus, Mars enters your solar second house on the 18th, signaling further that material affairs are strengthening and that you should direct your energies to these things. In fact, you can work hard at stabilizing your life this month. Events this month stir your ambition and gently push you to do your best. The month is busy regarding your commitments to the outside world, both in terms of responsibility and pleasure.

There can be some review necessary with Venus still retrograde until the 12th and Mercury retrograde until the 7th. However, it’s just fine, as you’re likely to find something valuable as you look back before pushing forward. While some of your plans may require redoing or rethinking, you’ll have the opportunity to see things differently, which can work to your advantage in the long run. It’s a time to process recent events and catch up with your feelings. When you’re too busy doing, you may not always process what’s happening inside, and now you get that chance.

In the first part of April, Venus is retrograde and Mars is in your sign, and this combination can be a bit tricky. You may come across as more stern or insensitive than you actually are. It’s a good idea to soften your approach just a little, or you could unwittingly make more problems for yourself than are necessary. There may be a review of — or return to — an unfinished matter or previous condition related to travel, education, special interests, or publishing.

A Saturn-Uranus transit with longer-term influence occurs in April, benefiting you with learning and teaming up with others through study groups or friendships based on shared beliefs and interests. It’s a good time to draw some boundaries and cement long-term friendships or group associations while also allowing room for spontaneity. There is a real sense that as you build your skills and attend to your practical affairs, you’ll connect with people or causes that inspire and encourage you.

You can be excited about people and causes you care about, and all the while, you’re picking up valuable skills that can move you closer to your broader goals. Long-lasting bonds and connections will be forming now and in the months ahead.

Mars leaving your sign, Cancer, on the 18th was after a very long visit, some of which time it was retrograde, so it's been quite a journey. The spotlight has been on your independent side, but now, some of your rough edges soften, and there is considerably less pressure on you to take action. Your central focus pulls away from being me-oriented towards security-minded. It’s an excellent time to work on self-esteem issues. You can be excited to get your money straight, earn more, or take on an ambitious project. You should probably watch for impulsive buying, however.

As the month moves on, it’s a fine time to connect with people who expand your perspective. You’ll get time to decide whether you derive satisfaction from your life, interactions, belief systems, or path. Aim to avoid rushing decisions.

In truth, April has many themes, suggesting you can benefit from diversifying a little now. The last week of the month brings a stronger social flavor. You'll be taking more and more interest in connecting with friends, networks, the community, or your higher goals, dreams, and plans.

The Sun heads into your sector of community and friendships on the 19th, keeping you connected and attending to happiness goals and networking. If you’ve been neglecting your need to spend time with people and projects that help you de-stress, this is a time for a clear reminder. You could find yourself taking an interest in something entirely new now. The goal is to contribute and feel connected.

The New Moon on the 27th encourages a fresh slate with friendships, networks, social life, and happiness goals. Aim to harness this energy to start fresh with friends and groups.

April 2025 Monthly Horoscope Overview for Leo:

April brings diverse energies, dear Leo. Even so, an interesting theme emerges for you. Mars moves into your sign on the 18th after a lengthy hiatus, and this move comes after Venus and Mercury end their retrogrades. You'll feel far more independent and forward-looking. Until the 19th, the Sun harmonizes with your sign, and you're feeling spirited, even with some slowdowns or delays to manage.

The larger focus is often on the bigger picture this month, and you want to stretch your mind. You’re doing more learning, sharing, and exploring, and it’s rewarding.

Venus spends most of the month (until April 30th) in your intimacy sector, some of which Venus is in retrograde motion (to the 12th), and it’s covering old ground. You may be reviewing your financial arrangements or obligations or your relationship commitments. You may be looking at your intimate life or dependencies from a different angle and reassessing whether you’re satisfied with how you’ve been approaching these matters. This review can give you valuable clues for making changes, which are ideally tackled later this month or next. Prepare yourself for some complications with debts and shared resources with Venus retrograde in your solar eighth until the 12th and Mercury retrograde there until the 7th.

Although there may have been some confusion or stagnation in your love life, the month gets easier for romantic expression and attention as it progresses. Later April can also be an important time for a loan or other support coming through.

With a Saturn-Uranus transit forming this month, your special attention to structure and discipline, combined with some room for spontaneity and innovation, can help boost your career or reputation. You see definite improvements in your life as you relinquish rigidity and pressure while sticking with reliability and order. Getting your finances and support situation sorted out can motivate and inspire your work. This period rewards attention to practical and emotional needs, and fulfilling pursuits can result.

The Full Moon on the 12th brings your attention to a communications project or errands that need immediate handling. This influence brings your attention back to your neighborhood, those close to you, and your daily affairs. It’s a call to take care of the details of your life, and it’s also a reminder to stay involved and up to date with the people and current news in your personal life, even as you venture out and about. It’s a generally busy time, but prioritize finding some space for relaxation.

You’ve spent quite a bit of time behind the scenes in recent months, and even when you’ve been out and about, you may have been quite withdrawn, keeping things to yourself. On the 18th, assertive Mars moving into your sign can be quite a shift! Decisions come quickly during this cycle that lasts until June 17th, about two months. A decidedly more confident and assertive side emerges. People can’t help but notice you. This happens only a day before the Sun moves to the top of your chart, pushing you into the limelight. You’re in good form if you listen to gut instincts rather than merely react to life. With this transit, you experience a re-awakening of sorts, preferring to do things independently, be a pioneer, and take the lead.

Later in April, life is generally more public and goal-oriented than usual. You're also pursuing your desires and asserting yourself. It's a time to put yourself out there with more sincerity and confidence, and the New Moon on the 27th can give you a push in this direction and the chance for a fresh start. Your stronger sense of responsibility boosts inner growth and healing. You can be more confident in your path or happier about where you’re heading. Freeing yourself from problems that have weighed you down can be liberating, and making plans and setting goals is exciting.

Nurture your ambitions or go hard with your studies for good results. You’re in perfect shape for gaining new knowledge and pushing forward work or life path goals. You have a boost of clarity and courage on your side. You may come to a sudden decision to clear something away to start fresh, which can involve a career path, work project, or life goal. Unexpected professional opportunities can pop up, or this New Moon brings a sense of renewal or revival.

April 2025 Monthly Horoscope Overview for Virgo:

You're getting in better touch with your inner power in April, dear Virgo, and building your optimism and spirit. You’re attracting people into your life who make your life easier, and your appeal is easy and natural. Still, much is going on under the surface of things, and it’s a fine month for devoting more time and energy to passion projects, learning, and extracurricular activities.

Venus has moved back into your relationship sector. While Venus visits this sector until April 30th, it remains retrograde only until the 12th, prompting a focus on whether or not you’re receiving satisfaction from (and harmony with) a partner or a close relationship. Or, there can be a feeling of emotional distancing or limbo during this review period, after which you start to put all the pieces together and feel more confident about making changes. If you’re waiting for money or a relationship, you could discover new ways to cope that truly benefit you as you wait. In the second half of April, you’ll begin to see changes and forward-moving in your relationships or with your projects and money/resources. Some of the recent discoveries about your relationship needs and values will likely affect future decisions.

With Venus ending its retrograde on the 12th and Mercury on the 7th, relating and connecting more openly and confidently can be most satisfying as you advance, and opening your heart leads to chances to heal and resolve problems.

You’re in good shape for clearing out problem areas, even long-standing ones, with special attention to balancing your need for structure and making room for spontaneity. While there continue to be valuable life lessons and perhaps challenges in a close partnership, you’re finding outlets for any related stress or tension or finding ways to balance out attention to other pursuits as Saturn and Uranus harmonize. A partner or special friend can help reinforce your ideas or educational or travel goals. Bonding with an extended family member or people with whom you share a common interest can be especially rewarding. A partner or a relationship can inspire you, even indirectly, to reach new heights, explore new places or ideas, or learn a new skill.

You might learn of an untapped resource or receive positive news related to your finances, particularly around the Full Moon on the 12th. The month is powerful for self-development and making positive lifestyle changes. It seems in reach to achieve the right balance between introspection and external focus.

Mars moves into your privacy sector on the 18th, where it will visit for two months before heading into your sign. For now, it makes sense to strategize, rest, reflect, and tie up loose ends. Pay special attention to activities that help you unwind and decompress now for the best results, but do make some room for freeform activities that feed your spirit and satisfy your itch to learn and discover.

The Sun heads into the sector of your chart that rules publishing, promotion, travel, adventure, belief systems, world cultures, higher education, and the law on the 19th, highlighting any of these themes later in April. Especially after the New Moon on the 27th, there can be opportunities to advance your goals, pursue an interest, and learn new things. There can be a remarkable increase in engagement with others. You enjoy more positivity in your outlook, thoughts, and conversations later in the month. As you tire of old rules, routines, and information, you embrace new ways of looking at problems.

New or revitalized interests, unusual studies, and different perspectives can lead you in different directions. The mood is often light, sociable, energetic, and interactive. Still, Mars in your solar twelfth house continues to demand some special attention to your private life or inner world. You may be processing a lot, not quite ready to make a big move or change. Be patient with this–it’s a necessary process and a natural progression.

Use this time to digest, reevaluate, and understand your desires. You’ll likely come to meaningful conclusions as you connect with your deeper feelings. Make it a goal to rest and unwind more often.

As you close out the month, it’s a great time to explore ideas and topics and share. At the same time, it’s a good idea to honor your increased need for time to yourself for processing and digesting. Aiming for a good balance makes sense.

April 2025 Monthly Horoscope Overview for Libra:

Relationships continue to be in focus for you in April, dear Libra. With your ruler, Venus, ending its retrograde cycle on the 12th, it’s a time to rebuild your connections and confidence.

Your social life is at the forefront this month. You’re frequently involved in collaborating, compromising, and balancing. A Full Moon in your sign occurs on the 12th, when you could have an epiphany about a relationship or your own needs feel urgent. From the 18th, the influence that has put pressure on your career and reputation sector for some time moves on, which means less worry about performance and more energy funneled into your happiness goals and pursuits.

While energies are becoming less concentrated in April, themes can often circle around work, health, habits, partnerships, and intimacy. A Saturn-Uranus transit offers you support for improving your lifestyle and habits. You can better manage your time, and you’re increasingly more aware of the need for a balanced approach in your relationships, with money, and regarding diet and habits. Separating work and downtime can be key to this. Financial or intimate matters may not always be steady, but this doesn’t compromise your work ethic or subtract from your efforts.

Venus has returned to your work and health sector and stays there until April 30th. However, Venus ends its retrograde on the 12th. It's a time to recognize areas of imbalance or dissatisfaction in your job or daily environment more acutely. The review you’re doing now is necessary and will likely lead to improved conditions in the long run. In truth, you're getting in better touch with your feelings, sensibilities, tastes, and values. It's a time to catch up with matters you’ve overlooked, brushed aside, or were too busy to handle.

On the 12th, not only does your ruling planet end its retrograde cycle, but the Full Moon occurs in your sign. Excitement or tension in your personal life or emotional world can lead to a new perspective. This could be a time of increased self-awareness or a shift in your emotional landscape, offering you a fresh understanding of your feelings and relationships.

Particularly in the second half of the month, you’ll have many opportunities to bring harmony to your everyday life. Confidence in yourself, your work, and your relationships build as April advances.

Another important shift is Mars moving into your solar eleventh house on the 18th. For many months, Mars has animated your career and reputation sector, but with Mars now heating up your sector of friends and happiness goals, it can be a good time to connect with people, more actively contribute, enjoy new experiences, or energize teamwork. You gain fabulous emotional fuel with Mars no longer at a stressful angle to your sign and Mercury and Venus no longer retrograde. Making changes seems to come naturally because you're answering calls to spontaneity.

Your social life is likely to be more animated now and until June 17th — sometimes a little too much, perhaps, but certainly clearer and more straightforward. More activity related to your community, network, or special friendships can be in the spotlight.

The Sun heads into your solar eighth house on the 19th, which rules regeneration, transformation, other people’s resources (that affect you), and debts, both spiritual or emotional and material. There can be a stronger need for deep, rich, meaningful experiences, more attention to a relationship's power dynamics and intimacy level, and a focus on your needs for change, evolution, and self-mastery later in April.

A close relationship can grow, and your relationship with yourself improves as you embrace your deeper nature. You gravitate to absorbing activities and profound thought, study, and conversations. You’re attuned to the hidden layers of situations.

Especially after the New Moon on the 27th, you can be determined to sort out feelings of indebtedness. An event can open your eyes to the need to handle debts or shared resources more effectively. You’re paying extra attention to emotional and psychological renewal. Still, your sense of adventure is building. Progress, improvement, or growth are potent motivators. As such, the potential for balancing your life with attention to your inner and outer world needs is strong.

April 2025 Monthly Horoscope Overview for Scorpio:

The drive to improve your life is in the spotlight in April, dear Scorpio, and your relationships can also be a growing focus as the month advances. Applying yourself to something constructive is satisfying, and putting in the effort to enhance your daily routines is rewarding.

Your relationship goals may very well inspire you to better yourself this month and in the coming months. You’re committed to making the most of your creativity and talents as Saturn and Uranus harmonize. When you’re feeling better organized and disciplined, it reflects well in many life departments, including your relationships. It’s an excellent period for attending to both the practical and spontaneous sides of your connections. Instead, diverse relationship needs or even relationship interruptions can inspire you to learn a new skill, monetize a hobby, or structure your leisure time.

It’s also possible that structuring your creative efforts, hobbies, or recreational or romantic pursuits can boost a relationship. Negotiations can be successful, and establishing reasonable boundaries in relationships works better than it has in recent years, as long as you also pay attention to the need for some freedom and randomness. You might discover very constructive channels for your creativity as well.

Venus has returned to your solar fifth house, remaining retrograde until the 12th, and leaving on April 30th. You can be primarily focused on harmony in your romantic life or on getting in touch with your creative muse. While it may not be until later this month or next month when you’re likely to feel that things are indeed moving forward, this is a good time for seeing your creative and romantic life, hobbies, and pleasures differently, leading to lovely insights. While reminiscing about the past is just fine and in fact helpful right now, try not to get stuck there. Questioning current attachments is likely, and it can be a useful process, either serving to strengthen your commitments or alerting you to stale areas of your life.

Not only does Venus end its retrograde on the 12th, but a Full Moon occurs, awakening a need to attend to your inner world and get extra time for rest and reflection. It signals a time when your psychic radar is working overtime, and you can have an epiphany about your true feelings on a matter or instincts about a person or project. There can be a need for emotional and psychic release or escape to recuperate, rest, and rejuvenate yourself.

Mars heads to the top of your solar chart on the 18th. This transit, lasting until mid-June, can serve to ignite your ambitions, and it might feel as if it was a long time coming after first heading there in December, sluggish behavior, and a return to the previous sector in recent months. This is a time for pursuing your goals more directly and confidently, particularly related to your career or material affairs. It’s a dynamic period that can sometimes be challenging, tense, or overstimulating but also invigorating. You may resent interference now, making it best if you work at your own pace.

In recent months, you may have been focusing on making your life more enjoyable and interesting. Now, you’re gradually shifting your attention towards taking care of business, performing, and handling your responsibilities. You can feel motivated to progress on a professional or lofty project or goal.

On the 19th, the Sun heads into your partnership sector, and there can be a significant focus on relationships and especially one-on-one interactions. This can relate to romantic partners, counselors or advisers, business partnerships, or similar unions. Negotiations and agreements can figure strongly now.

You’re in fine shape to form or enhance close relationships and partnerships, especially after the New Moon on the 27th. The best version of yourself often shines forth in one-on-one situations. You could attract people who boost your confidence. This is a time for making an extra effort to reach out, connect, and negotiate. It’s an excellent time for committing to a healing process, connection, or improved attitude related to relationships. The desire or need to cooperate and merge with someone is strong. Your needs from relationships awaken, and unusual impulses push you into a new beginning.

With these two shifts--Mars into your career sector on the 18th and the Sun into your partnership sector on the 19th--the potential is great for a balanced work-life focus.

April 2025 Monthly Horoscope Overview for Sagittarius:

Creative, just-for-fun, love, and entertaining activities are in the spotlight in April, dear Sagittarius. Still, there's also an increasing focus on work, health, and habits as the month progresses. With the Sun in your joy sector until the 19th, you’re tuning in to your needs for pleasure and leisure. Creative urges and the need to share them are themes. You can be highly motivated to pursue a personal interest, particular topic, hobby, or creative activity. You’re also awakening to a need for kindred spirits and more involvement with friends or the community around the Full Moon on the 12th.

While you experience essential life lessons, rules, or restrictions related to your home, family, and personal life with Saturn a longer-term visitor in your solar fourth house, you’re finding fantastic outlets for releasing related stress or tension or creating a better sense of balance. This support comes from a Saturn-Uranus harmonious transit that first forms exactly this month. Compartmentalizing and balancing work and home life can be the key, or your work and home life can combine in magical and practical ways. It can be a good time to work from (or on) the home. Family may motivate and support your work more than usual. Getting organized and disciplined can reflect wonderfully on your work and health pursuits, freeing you up for time to innovate. Your goals are big, but you’re also keeping your feet on the ground.

Venus has moved back into your solar fourth house and will visit until April 30th. Venus continues its retrograde until the 12th, and you tend to focus on bringing harmony, balance, and peace to your home life and family dynamics. There can be resurfacing problems to deal with, but you are looking at these matters in new ways, and as things move forward in the second half of the month, you’ll have a stronger idea of what’s most important to you–and what to do about it.

While you may be involved in a waiting game with Mercury retrograde until the 7th and Venus until the 12th, and you could feel in limbo sometimes, this can lead to new approaches that truly work for you. A current romantic interest may be difficult to read. You may discover that you have been undervaluing or overvaluing someone during this cycle, and whatever insight you gain now can be very useful to you going forward.

While the energies of April are becoming less concentrated than last month, some themes are emerging. If you’ve been sitting on feelings that need a release, they might find a channel for expression around the Full Moon on the 12th. You can be in demand, or you might experience a personal revelation or a surprising discovery in your social life. You receive a cosmic nudge toward finding a better balance between your personal life and social life or romance and friendship. Watch for impatience when expressing your feelings, however, especially as this Full Moon occurs on the same day Venus changes directions.

On the 18th, Mars heads into your spirit sector after an extended stay in your solar eighth house. With this shift, you're more adventurous, assertive, playful, and ready to take action. You begin to feel more energized, positive, and enthusiastic as April advances. Taking charge of your life comes more easily and naturally. You believe in your dreams!

This shift brings Mars into a better relationship with your sign after several months at a somewhat awkward angle. While there is soon a stronger focus on your work and routines, your adventurous side is stirring, and you’re ready to take on challenges confidently. This transit can mark the start of an exciting new passion or interest. Enthusiasm stirred up now can take you far.

The Sun's move into your solar sixth house on the 19th turns your attention to work, health, routines, services, daily affairs, diet, and habits more frequently than not. While it can be a time for managing and improving any of these things, it can also be a time when you discover areas of dissatisfaction that drive these improvements and refinements.

The New Moon on the 27th can get the ball rolling. You’re ready to start anew and take charge of your work, daily routines, self-care programs, and health. There can be a reinvigoration process in your everyday life; this lunation can pump you up to make meaningful changes to your habits and routines. It’s a time to do these things in brand-new ways.

While a work-and-health theme is gaining traction this month–you’re focusing on the details of your life--the potential is excellent for a nice balance between work and play.

April 2025 Monthly Horoscope Overview for Capricorn:

With a continuing focus on home and family, dear Capricorn, April is often about boosting your personal life and domestic world. You’re paying special attention to your needs for nurture, safety, and familiarity. Still, there's an increasing interest in sharing, expressing yourself, and enjoying entertainment and hobbies. It's also a transitional month as retrogrades of the inner planets continue but end, moving some areas forward.

A lovely Saturn-Uranus transit forms this month, and it boosts your judgment for making long-term plans. A romance or creative endeavor can be both exciting and practical. While learning, studies, and communications projects consume a lot of your time now, you’re also paying more attention to your need for fun and spontaneity. Loosening your grip just a little on your projects or studies can help you gain perspective, and you’re likely to find more meaning in your pursuits as a result. It’s a time to find ways to channel and structure your creative ideas and to do something tangible with your talents.

April begins with Venus having just recently returned to your communications sector in retrograde motion. Venus will continue in this house until April 30th but will finish its retrograde on the 12th. As such, you can be focusing on bringing more harmony to your communications and daily affairs. You might concern yourself with understanding matters from the past, mainly related to your relationships and projects, and you may be returning to old conversations, ideas, or studies. Until the 12th, you may be thinking about, analyzing, or talking about old relationships and matters, perhaps feeling a little stuck in the past at times until you’ve done the processing work. In fact, you can learn a lot about what you want, who you love, and what you value during this retrograde, but important, significant decisions should probably wait until later.

After the 12th, it's about processing these new insights. Mercury's retrograde cycle follows a similar, although quicker, pattern. It ends its retrograde on the 7th and moves on on April 16th.

Venus’s direct turn on the 12th helps you come across as you intend, but it takes a bit of time to get back in gear. Keep your cool and take your time to make important decisions. The Full Moon on the same day can stir a realization about your work, true calling, business, career, reputation, or true feelings about the direction your life is taking. This lunation pushes the need to attend to business, career, or public matters. There may be pressing demands in your professional life and perhaps a bit of scrutiny. Still, whatever this Full Moon brings to your attention, you get the message that it’s time to restore some balance between your personal and professional lives. Aim to avoid impatience and instead focus on a plan for improvements.

On the 18th, Mars moves into your solar eighth house. On-the-surface heat in relationships can lessen but some deeper issues may emerge for special handling. This cycle, lasting until June 17th, turns the heat up on the more intricate elements of relating. It can mobilize a financial matter.

With Mars opposite your sign recently, and for many months, you haven’t always felt that you were in the driver’s seat in your life. Demands on you may have been heavier, and personal plans may have been on hold. Now that Mars moves into your intimacy sector and animates your private life, it can stir up passions and desires you may have ignored or buried. You don’t want to feel constrained or limited now, and there can be a stronger desire to take action on matters you’ve put aside. You may solve a mystery that has baffled you for some time.

The Sun moving into your solar fifth house on the 19th brings the areas this house of your solar chart rules to life, such as recreation, hobbies, children, romance, dating, pleasure, creative endeavors, creative self-expression, leisure time, and fulfillment through play. Opportunities emerge to make refinements, improve, enjoy, discover, and grow these life departments.

The New Moon on the 27th asks you to pay more attention to finding outlets for creative release and pleasure. It encourages you to find time to relax, create, and enjoy yourself as you do. It’s a time to turn over a new leaf, and events in your life can bring out your feelings, romantic inclinations, and creativity. You enjoy increased motivation or opportunity to pursue a personal interest.

April 2025 Monthly Horoscope Overview for Aquarius:

The month ahead holds much potential for a nice balance between connecting and unwinding, dear Aquarius. You can enjoy success with communications, connecting, learning, and personal interests, especially after Mercury ends its retrograde on the 7th. At the same time, a more profound need to enjoy the security of family or home life emerges as the month advances. Your personal life is in the spotlight!

While it’s not an ideal period for concentration and focus, it can be excellent for getting odds and ends done. You’re enthusiastic about picking up handy information, boosting your knowledge, and sharpening your skills.

A harmonious alliance between Saturn and Uranus forms this month, making it a good time to feel more organized in your pursuit of security and stability. Efforts to improve spending and structure or organize your things can boost family life. A moderate approach benefits you. It’s a great time to organize your things. The desire to make yourself and your loved ones more secure or improve your home and family life is motivating, but it’s your ability to both structure and innovate that helps you achieve what you set out to do. You could discover that focusing on improving money management can boost your home life tremendously and help direct and discipline you across the board.

Venus has recently moved back into your resources sector, and will continue in this area of your solar chart until April 30th. Until the 12th, Venus is retrograde there, and you’re likely to focus on balancing your checkbook, upkeeping your valuables, beautifying your home (or yourself!), and attending to your personal comfort levels. You may be reviewing these things and looking at them from a different perspective until the 12th, after which you’re better positioned to make changes and adjustments based on these observations. If you're playing a waiting game with money, you may very well discover new sources of income as you must get creative about making a living.

It’s a good time to find lost objects, money, or areas of weakness in a budget. A delayed payment, gift, or bonus may come through later in the month. If you’ve been dissatisfied with your income or business matters, it may be time to explore your options.

The 12th not only brings the end of the Venus retrograde cycle, but it also features a Full Moon that awakens your desire to expand your mind and experiences. You are ready to start fresh, turn a corner, try new things, and approach your relationships differently. This can be an excellent time to come up with an inspired idea. There can be something published, expressed, or promoted that helps you turn a corner. Transportation news or problems can be part of the picture.

Mars moves into your partnership sector on the 18th, animating your relationships until June 17th. This shift comes after a long stay in your work and health sector, and while you may have made some improvements to your daily routines, the pace of your life has likely been hectic. Now, relationships are lively and moving forward, but unresolved problems can demand immediate attention. Your social life can be up and down, but active! While you could experience conflicts with a significant person in your life, you might instead actively work on improving an alliance.

With the Sun's transit of your solar fourth house from the 19th forward, a theme related to home and family emerges. Your personal plans, home life, domestic affairs, family relationships, roots, heritage, parents and parenting, or psychological foundations can gain your attention. There's a focus on your needs for familiarity and comfort that you’re in great shape for nurturing.

It can be a time for repairing and enhancing family relationships, moving or renovating, and improving your feelings of safety and comfort, especially after the New Moon on the 27th. You’re in an excellent position to enhance your living conditions and home life or make peace with yourself. This lunation can prompt a fresh approach or changes in living conditions, life at home, and getting comfortable. Attention to your needs for familiarity is beneficial.

April 2025 Monthly Horoscope Overview for Pisces:

April brings themes of developing your talents and managing money, dear Pisces, and getting comfortable can be in the spotlight. As the month advances, you'll be focusing more on communicating, learning, connecting, small trips or errands, and transportation.

It’s a strong month for taking care of business, practical matters, budget-making, and discovering new ways to boost your income. You can feel a sense of accomplishment or hopefulness in business and stronger connectedness in your personal life. Nurturing your needs for peace, quiet, and familiarity is beneficial right now.

Venus is retrograde until the 12th, and there can be opportunities to enjoy new interests or take a fresh look at old problems with this retrograde action. This can be a time for editing a project, picking up a skill you may have dropped in the past, reconnecting with old classmates or acquaintances, or talking about past relationships. Mercury follows a similar path as Venus, but it's retrograde only until the 7th.

Venus stays in your sign for a visit almost all month--until April 30th--but it's only retrograde until the 12th. You have an opportunity to look at yourself, your personal goals, and your image in a different light, and to look back before you go forward. There can be quite a bit of preoccupation with your personal affairs now, and it’s a good time to review what's been working for you and what may have been working against you. Your personality, image, attitude to anything new, initiating qualities, immediate responses to stress, self-identity, and communications are all themes that retrograde Venus touches now. Refining and possibly redefining some of these things may be in order.

Venus ends its retrograde on the 12th, the same day as a Full Moon. This Full Moon boosts your awareness of what you have, need, and want. Tricky power dynamics and unpaid debts could be themes. Consider ways to get back to a position of balance. Empower yourself by aiming to manage or settle debts, whether these are material, spiritual, or emotional. If you feel guilty or indebted, you’re not working at full capacity, and now is the time to work towards fixing the problem. However, we all depend on others in some way, and these connections can be beneficial, so consider ways to get yourself more comfortable with healthy dependencies as well. You may be confronting fears or insecurities about your talents or earnings, but this opens new ways to heal, improve, and grow.

Mars moves into your work and health sector on the 18th, and the motivation for work, projects, organization, and health and wellness programs increases. This transit fires up your desire to excel with your work, chores, routines, and health pursuits until June 17th. Expect a lot of busyness in your daily routines ahead! It may be better to do your own thing at your own pace during this period.

You could also be looking for more meaning or magic in your work, practical pursuits, and interests. It can be a fabulous time for health or wellness discoveries, activities with the goal of healing, good purchasing finds, and problem-solving that happens organically.

From the 19th forward, the Sun moves into your solar third house, and your interests, curiosity, and desire to learn and make connections are growing themes. Your confidence increases in your ability to study, learn, and communicate.

After the New Moon on the 27th, you’re ready to make a significant change and perhaps put an end to a particular project or line of study to start in a brand new direction. Instead, you might approach studies or personal interests with fresh new energy. New avenues for communicating or getting around can open for you.

A Saturn-Uranus transit first forms this month, and building endurance and patience has its rewards. You may be advancing a communications project, helping boost your confidence and satisfaction. It’s a time to recognize the value of a more balanced approach to personal growth, especially as you pay attention to both tradition and progress.

You’ll be enjoying improved communication and self-expression. Learning flows more readily. Transportation options may open up to you. New and improved ways of getting around or connecting can change your life in crucial, satisfying, and significant ways. Finding new excitement in what you’re learning and communicating can considerably enrich your life, inspiring you to take better care of yourself.

May 2025 Monthly Horoscope Overview for Aries:

Mars moving through your sector of joy all month ensures a lively, animated, energized period, dear Aries, at least much of the time. Ideally, you’re able to rest hard and play hard. If not, you’ll find time for recreation and self-expression. It's a fabulous time for pouring energies into a passion project, heartfelt pursuit, and possibly a romance or getaway. Still, the month of May features special attention to improving your sense of stability and comfort. It's a powerful period for embracing your need to sometimes indulge and enjoy yourself.

Where you felt constricted in recent months, you have a strong sense of liberation and forward movement in May. People want to be around you – they seek out your company. Your ruler, Mars, is working in harmony with your sign all of May, reinvigorating and energizing you.

Still, Pluto turns retrograde on the 4th, signaling some need to de-emphasize networking a little. Plans, obligations, and concerns regarding your social life, friendships, or happiness goals may have heavy energy hanging over them during the shift in the first week of May. However, as the retrograde advances, things not only even out but also feel less pressured. This retrograde period lasts until October, and it’s powerful for taking a step back and examining your fears, resentments, and possible self-destructive tendencies so that you’re not living on autopilot. It’s a vital time for healing.

You can be motivated to develop projects and focus on building something special this month. You are working smartly now, finding ways to do what you need to do without impinging too much on your personal time. Your powers of attraction are super as Venus spends the entire month in your sign. You’re feeling stronger, more content, and happy with yourself, and as this reflects outward, you’re bound to see improvement in your relationships with others. You can be attracting love and money in May.

With the Sun in your solar second house until the 20th and Mercury here from the 10th to the 25th, a good part of you is focused on comfort, finances, security, and settling in. It’s a time to enjoy what you have and patiently build or strengthen.

With Mars in your sector of fun, creativity, and romance all month, you’re in strong touch with your passions. You’re expressing yourself confidently. Romantic relationships may be animated, or your feelings for someone fire up. There can certainly be competing energies between the drive for security and a need to put yourself out there. For the most part, however, you can make this work.

The Full Moon on the 12th can bring your attention to matters of sharing or connecting intimately with a partner, and it may ask you to take an emotional risk or move out of your comfort zone. It’s a time for handling debts or matters of support.

Your instincts for what works best for you are in top form for much of the month, and you can feel moved and motivated to up your game or rise to a personal challenge. You feel freer to express your authentic self through your writings, ideas, and personal interests. It’s a powerful time for healing through the power of words, better communication, or expanded personal interests.

The month can bring stellar money-making or project ideas with long-term appeal and profitability. As much as you're seeking more predictability, you can have a sudden desire for a fancy new item or new technology in your everyday life that changes your methods or mood is likely. The urge to unburden yourself of excess possessions or clutter can be as strong. Circumstances are such that you become incredibly aware of what you’ve been holding onto both emotionally and physically, and it becomes clear how some of this may be holding you back in key areas of your life. Money matters can surprise you this month.

From the 20th forward, you're in a period that's strong for new interests, a busy mind, and learning or studying. You’re in great shape for increased self-acceptance and enjoyment, and possibly for learning new things about yourself or someone important to you.

The last days of May point to a mentally busy period and a potentially illuminating time. You’re in a particularly good position to sort things out and solve problems or to gain some clarity on your studies, trips, or projects as new details emerge. It’s a good time for engaging in helpful conversations and arriving at interesting ideas.

May 2025 Monthly Horoscope Overview for Taurus:

May is a month of personal power for you, dear Taurus, and this year, you’ll carry forward some of this empowering energy into June as well. There's a strong focus on personality development, finances, family, domestic life, and talents. On many levels, you can feel revitalized. People notice you for who you are and not only for what you do. You’re getting ahead because of your fabulous personality more than other assets in May. Home life becomes more animated, and family life demands more of your time.

While Venus, your ruling planet, spends the entire month in your privacy sector, it’s moving direct all month, and there is a sense of forward movement nonetheless. You’re still in an incubation stage regarding your love life and affections – there are things to process and perhaps some healing to do before you’re clear-headed with these things. However, if this was agonizing at times in April, it’s a much smoother process in May. Venus will enter your sign in June, and you’ll be raring to go, but for now, sorting things out will serve you well. In fact, you may need to deemphasize your love life to take advantage of other opportunities.

You have much in the way of personal impact even though you're still keeping some things to yourself, as you should, and putting some decisions on hold. The month is a strong yet gentle one for you. You’re in the driver’s seat. Yes, this is true in a general sense, but with the Sun in your sign until the 20th, you’re feeling super confident, and changes made now seem to have visible, quick results.

Support is there if you need it, possibly from an unusual or hidden source, or your feelings emerge from deep within, guiding you. A surprise and strong attraction or interest can be brewing. There is a greater appreciation for the quiet, easygoing moments in your relationships. You might also experience a rush of confidence to take action on a personal matter or to put something behind you.

From the 10th, you’re speaking up more often and making executive decisions. However, partnership matters may reach a turning point around the 12th. You’ll come into strong touch with your feelings related to a negotiation, commitment, or one-to-one relationship. A partner can have a surprising revelation.

Pluto begins its yearly retrograde cycle this month, and some of your long-term career goals may be up for review until October. It's a time for reworking career and planning initiatives. Facing up to truths about the past and a closer look at career, life path, and relationship matters can be part of the picture. You’re more able to see areas where you’ve been over-attached, overthinking, worried, or obsessed.

The biggest area of passion and possible upheaval this month is likely to involve your private world, family life, and home matters. You’re ambitious about these things now, desiring to make deep changes that will last. There can also be bigger emotions felt at home than elsewhere – tempers may be prominent. The trick is to avoid impatience and impulsiveness. Strategize for best results. You may want to rule the roost now, and this can be successful as long as you’re a gentle leader! This is a time for actively working through problem areas and improving family relationships.

While you’ll be pursuing personal interests and craving more independence this month – and you’re quite successful on these fronts – this can also be an important time for house cleaning of some variety. You'll likely to get in touch with buried resentments that can frustrate you enough to make changes. You get the chance to work on or in the home. You may be defending, rallying for, or motivating family now.

You might discover resources you never knew you had or could receive excellent guidance and support from behind the scenes as you benefit from a Jupiter-Chiron transit this month.

May is also strong for money matters as it advances, which will pick up speed further in June. Later in the month finds you seeking out predictability, comfort, and security.

You might gain the confidence to take charge of money-related matters after the New Moon on the 26th. This can be about increasing your income or levels of work satisfaction. New beginnings with finances are likely, but first, you need to sort out tricky matters related to outstanding debts, support, or old commitments. Aim to start fresh with your money and business goals.

May 2025 Monthly Horoscope Overview for Gemini:

The first three weeks of May are often a time to tie up loose ends and live life under the radar for you, dear Gemini. It's the case this year in some ways, but you’re also living quite spiritedly! Mercury, your ruler, is moving quickly, and you've caught up to speed. Both Venus and Mars are moving in harmony with your sign, bolstering your energy and charm and endowing you with further power to assert yourself and the courage to pursue your desires.

Routes to satisfaction are becoming clearer. While April had its fair share of roadblocks, May feels more energizing and supportive overall. People, more often than not, respond positively to you, and support from friends, associates, groups, or even your community can be forthcoming. The month is particularly supportive of your efforts to connect harmoniously with others.

Energy is generally good this month, even if it's sometimes directed to your private life or the background. May is a month for dusting off ideas you’ve previously put on the shelf. People are paying more attention. There can be a lot of your energy focused on helping or supporting others this month, and you might often find yourself in a position of go-between or mediator. You can be especially intuitive and sometimes quite distracted and preoccupied this month.

You’re mentally wired, and you want to put ideas into action this month. You might feel impatient with idle chatter or with others’ slower pace or minds, making it imperative that you find ways to move at your own pace or work independently. There can be a significant intellectual competition in May.

The Full Moon on the 12th is eye-opening and warm. This is a time ripe for discovery, surprise, and blooming, especially related to intimacy, work, and health. These are areas of your life that can reach a turning point. The focus should be on both physical and mental health, which becomes especially obvious if you’ve prioritized one over the other. If your daily affairs have become difficult to manage, for example, you'll get a kick in the pants to get things under control.

Relationships with friends and associates improve considerably in May. If you’ve been out of touch or dealing with confusing situations, you’ll find that these issues clear up this month. People are warmer and more inclined to reach out. As well, you're more receptive.

While you’re in your yearly period of repose and winding down, it can be a big idea month, and it’s quite excellent for reaching out to others, although part of you wants nothing more than to withdraw and replenish your energy! Dealing with errands and short trips may be frequent, and a balance should be sought.

With the Sun’s position in your privacy sector to the 20th and Mars in your communications sector all month, you may be giving off a “leave me alone” energy. However, Venus helps smooth over your relations with special friends and groups.

In fact, you're connecting with your dreams, desire to participate, and happiness goals, and it’s extremely rewarding–even healing. As you humble yourself to your need for community or contributing, you feel good about yourself, freer, happier, and more personally confident.

From May 4th forward, you may find yourself reassessing, observing, and gaining a new vision of a publishing project, educational path, or belief system.

It’s an excellent time to make mental and social connections. Your communications, teachings, studies, ideas, and writing may be a little hasty at times, and there can be times when you feel mentally wired. However, you enjoy greater passion and motivation to get things done and to learn or produce. You may not often sit still, and you’re inclined to want to initiate independent work and projects. You learn best when you are teaching yourself or engaged in self-study right now.

The Sun is in your sign from the 20th forward, launching your month-long personal power period. This transit brings you into the personal spotlight. The New Moon on the 26th kickstarts new beginnings. It’s a time when you’re coming out of your shell, connecting with others more often, and stirring things up.

The last week of the month is strong for resolving problems, getting back into the swing of things, developing new or picking up old interests, studies, or other “busy work,” and a stronger feeling that you’re on track. Verbalizing your desires can be in sharp focus. You can feel driven to express yourself or communicate with someone. Others hear you or turn to you for your input. It’s a week of meaningful realizations, epiphanies, and clarifications.

May 2025 Monthly Horoscope Overview for Cancer:

In May, there can be encouraging forward movement and clarity regarding long-term goals, career, money, and life direction, dear Cancer. Where things seemed blocked, delayed, or unclear in April, you will likely see advances and resolutions this month. Friendships, networking, group connections, and your social life are in strong focus.

There is a social theme to the month ahead, but your practical affairs are also in good shape. Career matters fly along relatively smoothly.

Pluto's retrograde cycle from the 4th points to benefits from a review or reassessment of debts, dependencies, and intimate relationships. If the give-and-take or trust in a key relationship has fallen out of balance, you’ll feel it more intensely now. Romantic relationships or recreation and creativity, especially related to issues of control or fear, can also come into sharper focus with this shift. As the retrograde progresses (it lasts until October), you might find that you’re detaching just enough to make improvements. For instance, this could mean taking a step back to reassess your needs and boundaries in a relationship or finding a new balance in your shared responsibilities.

Expressing your uniqueness is especially important to you, and the need to work cooperatively within the framework of a group or with friends or the community is likely to figure strongly. Your independent side has been prominent in recent months, but this month, you are softening rough edges.

You receive real cosmic support for making updates rather than radically changing areas of your life this month. Stability is important for you as a Cancer, but progress is something you need these days, particularly on a social level, and this way, you can have both!

This is a socially focused month for you. It’s a good period for sharing your time and expertise and sorting through feelings.

May is an excellent time for professional appeal or for making friends through your career or business. It’s a good time to polish up your image or bring more personal appeal and a creative touch to your work. There can be second chances to make an impression.

Around the Full Moon on the 12th, you are in excellent shape for excitement in your social or romantic life as feelings bloom. There can be powerful epiphanies and a significant turning point in a relationship or with a project close to your heart. Issues about love, joy, a passion project, creative pursuit, or children can be at the forefront now.

Discussions with friends or ideas generated through your networks can be truly inspiring and useful, particularly from May 10th to 25th. You tend to draw in helpful or kind people, and you’re in a particularly good position for counseling, agreements, and negotiations.

You are capable of quite a bit of work if you foresee an improved financial position or a more secure state of being. Watch for possessiveness, but build your resources now. While you should take care not to spend impulsively, it’s a stellar time for putting more faith and confidence in your ability to earn or in your talents. You’re seeking more security and comfort, and you’re prepared to take the necessary steps toward these ends.

Past work or earned life experiences can help you in your work or give you special direction. As well, giving your career or responsibilities your all can help you feel less guilty about truly enjoying periods of rest and relaxation. And, as you allow yourself time to heal and detox, the benefits of emotional renewal positively impact your career or reputation.

Later in May, much is going on behind the scenes and on an emotional level as you deal with loose ends and prepare for a personal new year. You could take some form of time-out or period of repose or recuperation. This is a time to consider what you want to take with you into the new solar year, which begins around your birthday. It's about doing a spring cleaning in your psyche. You can feel more insular than usual from the 20th forward.

Carving out time for extra rest, meditation, and reflection is especially important now, and the New Moon on the 26th can nudge you forward along these lines. A past topic can be reawakened as new insight emerges. You might discover a hidden resource or develop an idea that helps you use your resources in exciting ways.

Leo

May 2025 Monthly Horoscope Overview for Leo:

The month ahead particularly supports broadening your horizons and branching out, dear Leo, perhaps through an expansion of your audience, adventure, or studies. A personal philosophy or belief system comes into stronger focus and more clarity. Where April was bumpy, blocks clear in May.

You’re also in a fine position to take charge of your work, manage others, take the lead, and make great strides towards your larger goals in May. You’re willing to put in the legwork and just the right amount of extra effort to shine--or outshine.

You can be quite headstrong and independent in May. While you have a strong sense of the rules, the enterprising side of your nature emerges powerfully this month, and you could find yourself challenging traditions.

You’re taking a well-rounded approach to life this month, which may be the key to your overall success. Activities with others keep you busy and motivated. Learning with study groups can be beneficial, or you might acquire new knowledge or gain inspiration from groups you connect with now. It's a powerful time to learn, guide, share, and connect--and to heal through these experiences.

Pluto's retrograde cycle from the 4th forward (until October) holds the potential for new discoveries and insights. It's a time to reassess one-on-one relationships and living conditions. You might review your feelings or examine whether you've been clinging to old patterns instead of braving new territory. The process of gaining more objectivity will help you identify areas where you’ve pushed too hard or where you’ve been too attached for your own good!

While you are likely to be doing a good job of balancing your personal and professional lives, if these areas are out of whack, the Full Moon on the 12th will point you in the right direction, whether this is via an event or personal epiphany. Home and family matters assume larger importance, and you might discover or connect with strong feelings about your living arrangements or family situation. This can be a wonderful time for reaching out to or spending extra time with family. It can also be a time for significant memories that help you make decisions in the present.

Mars is energizing your sign all month. There can be times when you clash with others, or circumstances seem to be resisting you, but overall, you’re raring to go, ready to take action. Lively energy is with you! This Mars transit is energizing – you’re ready to take on a challenge, and you’re interested in innovating, being the first, and getting ahead. Venus in a compatible sign attracts rather than pursues, so you have both yin and yang energies going for you now.

Some friendly competition can help inspire happy improvements. Business connected with art, music, and other creative ventures can prosper, or there can be the right timing with money and business. Mutually beneficial agreements, romance, increased confidence, and broadening your mind are in favor. Romantic possibilities are with you, possibly with someone with a very different background.

With Mars in Leo this month, you can be impatient with too much talk or long-drawn-out explanations. As long as you are determined to make the most of this period, it’s a great time for standing up for yourself and for new initiatives that require action and courage more than plans and deliberation. You can’t force confidence – confidence builds as self-mastery skills increase. This is why truly confident moves have wonderful results now, and rash or pushy moves seem to have consequences.

The Sun moves into your friendship sector on the 20th, spotlighting your social life and happiness goals. There can be the chance to start fresh on a social level after the New Moon on the 26th. The last week of the month particularly supports new interests and friendships or a new lease on an old friendship. Your enthusiasm wins others over, and your unique qualities and perspective give your personality extra sparkle.

Transits help clarify a matter about a friendship or a special project. You can be filled with excitement and anticipation about emerging new ideas for long-term plans and projects. Developing a friendly rapport with someone can be highly motivating. You’re independent this month, but you are wise enough to value the group and cherished friends’ input. Diplomacy has its distinct benefits.

May 2025 Monthly Horoscope Overview for Virgo:

There is a strong focus on adventure, spirit, and mind expansion this month, dear Virgo, but much is going on under the hood in May, especially with your intimate life and/or with money matters and support. Where there was some waiting, delays, and backtracking with these issues in April, doors are opening to you in May. The chances of smoothing over a disagreement or attracting the support you need are high.

Your larger focus seems to be on the “big picture” this month. You’re seeking to stretch your mind. You see your heart more clearly, which also helps decision-making. Positive shifts can happen as you embrace exploring new subjects and places. Extra rest is crucial this month, but refreshing activities are essential, too.

Pluto begins its yearly retrograde cycle on May 4th, and problem areas can magnify with the shift, likely related to work, routines, communications, and health. As you grow accustomed to this energy, you’re in a brilliant position to review and reassess these matters as you gain perspective. You might more clearly see where you’ve been over-attached or where you’ve put too much pressure on yourself along these lines.

Doing out-of-the-ordinary things or changing routines up is attractive in May, but there is a considerable focus on healing, resting, and tying up loose ends as Mars transits the sign just behind yours all month. You're gaining the motivation and energy to handle a matter that has been on your mind for some time. Otherwise, it's an important period for resting and reorienting yourself. Your desires are more complex than usual, and when you do know what you want, you may not see an easy way to go after it! Ideally, this leads to creative solutions and detours.

The Full Moon on the 12th is fantastic for opening up the lines of communication or making connections, reaching out, putting the word out, and making your ideas known. Mind you, there can be a rush to get something done and a harried pace, but this can also be an exciting time for discovering a passion or new interest.

You benefit from feeling backed and respected, which can motivate you to work harder or to enjoy what you do more fully. Your interactions can be pleasantly spicy or intimacy-boosting. It’s a fabulous time to get to know yourself better as you get in touch with your more profound needs and desires. Ultimately, relationships are likely to strengthen as you understand yourself better.

Professional matters look bright, and you can be in an excellent position to arrive at a mutually beneficial agreement, cooperate with others, or receive helpful feedback this month. You can be managing financial support issues or formulating strategies for meeting your goals. Quiet study or research can yield the answers you need and perhaps some rewards. Further, focusing on something absorbing and pouring a lot of energy into a project you care about can boost your mood.

Pursuing heartfelt activities and building alliances are in favor. Researching, editing, or otherwise going over business, health, and financial matters can be satisfying. Still, it can also be a time of new, unusual, or radically different interests. Your worldview is changing, and current events can be catalysts for exploring new ideas. Educational plans might shift, or a sudden opportunity for different experiences can emerge.

On the 20th, the Sun heads to the top of your solar chart, increasing your ambition or sense of responsibility. After the New Moon on the 26th, you can start fresh with your image or career. There's lovely support for your ideas, learning, travel, and career aspirations in the last week of May.

You might receive special attention in the last week of the month, or certain plans come together as details emerge. This can be a significant period for your work, career, life path, or direction as the Sun and Mercury align at the top of your solar chart. New insights into your career path or business projects can emerge, which can propel you forward or motivate you. Meaningful conversations or communications occur that help you turn a corner.

May 2025 Monthly Horoscope Overview for Libra:

Relationships, finances, passion, intimacy, education, and adventure make up the larger themes of May for you, dear Libra, and are areas of increased focus and opportunity. Learning and exploring with a partner or good friend can be very beneficial now. It can be an uplifting time of more honesty and warm experiences and activities with a special person, as well as boosts to a relationship. A partner or your relationship goals could play a vital role in motivating you to learn or do more.

Where you may have felt stuck, in limbo, or delayed in April, more clarity arrives in May. This month is strong for a sense that you’re getting back on track. Relationships smooth over. Your stellar ability to compromise, negotiate, and bring balance to your life is back up to par and then some!

You can be very active with friends and groups this month, but you’re also easily absorbed in your private life, ideally finding the right balance between the two. You might find that you achieve the most or are the most motivated through your involvement with a group or team. You may be more active with friends and associates, perhaps actively working towards a cherished cause or dream.

It's a time when you’re not particularly content with simply dreaming, wishing, and hoping for better circumstances. You’ll want to take solid action toward realizing your goals and making improvements. There can be a strong focus on new technology or methods. You’re inventive and drawn to endeavors that are forward-looking and unique.

Even so, in many ways, this is a month for soul-searching, digging, and investigating. You may be doing a lot of observing and planning, and you’re inclined to pour quite a bit of energy into engrossing projects and interests. You’re getting in better touch with your inner power and recognizing and building support from others.

Pluto begins its yearly retrograde cycle on May 4th. With the shift, there can be a temporary magnification of problems, complications, and fears related to those areas of your chart strongly influenced by Pluto: romance, creativity, recreation, finances, and security. Pressures will subside going forward, and in fact, you’ll reach the point where you’re significantly detached enough to gain a better perspective on these things. This way, you can more clearly see where fear and over-attachment may have worked against you. This powerful period for self-knowledge continues until October.

This is also a potentially strengthening month for close relationships. You’re clearer about who you care about and who has your back. Meeting people through your personal interests, studies, or travels is likely. You are better able to express yourself and to "get" others. This month, you enjoy more ease in social situations and possibly romantic excitement. You want to break out of the mold or routine in various ways through what you learn and where you go. Certainly, you’re more courageous and motivated to try new things.

Around the Full Moon on the 12th, you’re in particularly good shape for making financial discoveries and adjustments. You're recognizing your worth or value and seeking out your rightful share. A conversation or news arrives now that nudges you toward these epiphanies. A business deal or project might come to full bloom now. Ownership, sharing, power, and money matters can be up for change or improvement.

Sharing your feelings or intimate matters can be fun and rewarding, especially from the 10th to the 25th. You might open up a topic that is usually taboo or left unspoken. Healthy, frank discussions boost your relationships.

Mars spending the month in your social sector can animate your friendships, group associations, and happiness goals. At the same time, it’s likely to stir up problem areas that may have been brewing under the surface with friends or networks.

The Sun moves into harmony with your sign and into your spirit sector on the 20th, launching a month-long cycle in which you feel more vibrant and connected to your dreams and goals. You're opening up to new ideas and mental explorations. The New Moon on the 26th brings a fresh start with special interests, adventures, or legal matters.

In the last days of the month, you’re excited about expanding a business, relationship — or your mind and experiences. Illumination can occur on a mental level, and there can be a clearing of the air or an important discovery or connection made this week. The desire to share your philosophy or unique perspective can be powerful. Doing your own thing, perhaps ironically, gets you closer to others.

Scorpio

May 2025 Monthly Horoscope Overview for Scorpio:

You are more ambitious than usual and quite focused on accomplishment this month, dear Scorpio. You’re not in any mood to be told what to do, preferring to lead the way yourself in May. Mars brings extra muscle and motivation to your career, image, status, and responsibilities. You're in fine shape for sorting out your duties, organizing your personal and workspace, and researching your options.

You’re more invested than usual in the success of your relationships this month, and negotiations and diplomacy are highlighted. Fortunately, Venus is back in the game, and relating is more straightforward.

Pluto begins its retrograde cycle on May 4th, positioning you well to review, reassess, and gain a new perspective about areas of your chart strongly influenced by Pluto: your personal goals, personality, security, comfort, family, and home or domestic life. Some related plans may need adjustment, but you might find it easier to detach from pressures and fears in these areas. You’ll find this process more comfortable as you grow more accustomed to this energy.

Even so, where there were delays, confusion, and irritations in April, you’ll enjoy forward movement, corrected courses, and clarifications in May. The areas most affected by slowdowns have been relationships, work, routines, and health. Further clarity comes to these areas of life in May, and perhaps some second chances to work things out. This month not only eases you forward, but it also features some very supportive influences for your partnerships and finances.

With Mars at the top of your solar chart, you can be especially dynamic with business, career, and life plans. It certainly helps that you have boosted charisma on the job with Venus moving through your work and health sector all month. Your ambitions are stirring, and you're taking the lead.

Improvements in your routines, habits, and everyday life that enhance your intimate life or feelings of personal empowerment can be in the spotlight this month. You’re also working on making your connections stronger and happier, and you have cosmic support for this task.

Around the Full Moon on the 12th can be an especially illuminating period. Projects come to bloom, and you come into touch with your true feelings on a matter. What you’ve been brushing to the side can no longer be ignored! This can be a magical time for relationships but also for self-discovery, as this Full Moon occurs in your sign. Your intuitive feelers are on double duty! It can be an important time to check in with those feelings and desires you’ve brushed off or left unfulfilled.

May can also be a significant money month, not necessarily for windfalls but for getting good deals or gaining support more effortlessly. You don’t shy away from dealing with imbalances of power or from tricky, taboo topics this month, and you’re ready to take charge in your intimate life, especially in the last week of May.

This can be a time of increased activity in your career, but you may also feel a strong desire to take the lead and act independently. In your personal life, however, you’re in an entirely different frame of mind. Collaboration and cooperation are in focus.

The lines of communication open with a significant other or good friend, especially from the 10th to the 25th. You’re in a particularly good light on the job, at the gym, or other activities related to your daily routines and health pursuits, leading to social or romantic opportunities or simply more pleasure in your everyday life.

A significant other can help give you perspective this month and shared plans and ideas can improve your bond. Energies are excellent for conversations with a partner, advisor, or counselor. Others can be your sounding board. Listen when people compliment you or recognize your talents and potential, as the feedback can be precious to you now.

The last week of the month includes a New Moon in your intimacy and sharing sector, prompting the urge or need to start fresh. It's a fine time for exciting lifestyle changes and feeling on top of things. Transits support building exciting strategies for your work or future. You might also see an intimate relationship, your personal psychology and inner desires, or financial issues more clearly now. Solving a mystery can be rewarding, or you might have a particularly illuminating discussion about a matter that was previously hidden, kept under wraps, or incredibly complicated.

May 2025 Monthly Horoscope Overview for Sagittarius:

The month ahead is powerful for taking care of business, improving routines and health, and enjoying and expressing yourself, dear Sagittarius. In other words, you're working and playing hard, and it's a nice balance. Mars animates your spirit sector, while charming Venus spends the month in your romance and creativity sector. It’s a time for making connections, meeting people, and becoming more active with others. Learning and sharing can be exciting.

You move beyond the blocks and delays of April and enjoy special attention, relationships, and improved routines in May. Problems straighten out, and answers or news you’ve been waiting for arrive. Conversations that left you stumped can start to make sense this month.

Even so, Pluto begins its retrograde cycle on the 4th, which lasts over five months, putting you in a more reflective frame of mind. It’s a great time to search deep within for answers. It’s also a time to take a break from pushing yourself too hard mentally. Some projects may stall or need editing, adjustments, and refinements. While the shift can magnify fears and problem areas, as you adjust to this energy, you’ll find this cycle quite valuable for self-understanding.

There can be much activity and focus on work, analysis, reorganization, and fixing problem areas in your life. You’re particularly motivated to do a good job, and you might thoroughly enjoy helping out others. You’re more conscientious as a result and take pride in solving problems, acquiring or honing skills, and taking care of business. You can be especially productive and enjoy the feeling of being useful. Still, there is a lot of room for pleasant diversions and rewards.

Around the Full Moon on the 12th, there can be an unexpected moment of truth and a need to rest, reflect, and otherwise pull yourself together. This is not about getting clear or reliable answers from the outside but about clear, intuitive flashes and realizations within you. You can discover how you actually feel about someone or something, and it may be hard to explain what brought you to your conclusions. Your instincts and intuition are working overtime now. It's a time to recognize your need to pay attention to and balance your mental and physical health.

Focus on healing, reflecting, and reconnecting with some of the emotions you’ve brushed aside in recent weeks. This way, you can bring your renewed self back to your work and self-care programs and do your best.

Mars is a guest in your sector of spirit and adventure all month, fueling your energy and motivating you to reach beyond your usual limits. Certainly, your work and daily affairs can be exhausting at times, and there is a stronger and necessary focus on these things, but you’re also finding the time to pursue other interests and activities that help nourish your soul and inspire you to reach higher. You’re strongly motivated to learn, grow, improve, share, and connect. This can be a time for discovering a new passion or interest, or you could be rekindling an exciting project or study. Either way, you’re enthusiastic.

You are more attached than usual to your opinions, beliefs, traditions, and ideas this month, which can certainly contribute to some problems in your relationships, as you may create a stir occasionally. However, there is good energy with you for pursuing new interests and activities. Competitive activities can be attractive now.

Your romantic or creative life is brighter and happier, and you get special help from Venus, which spends the month in your joy sector, boosting your appeal and personal confidence, and perhaps winning you some admirers, too. You’re more spirited and confident and can be highly motivated to pursue a personal interest, particular topic, hobby, or creative activity. You might expand your horizons through an artistic pursuit or a hearty discussion. It’s more comfortable to attract or enhance love. You are magnetic, but you’re also making happy things happen, and there is a beautiful, warm flow of friendliness between you and the people around you.

It can be a lovely period for enhancing your relationships or love life. It’s also a time when your self-honesty leads to more genuineness in your romantic world or creative output.

Relationships come into stronger focus in the latter part of the month. The need for companionship might increase now. There can be more seriousness in your relationships and perhaps some balancing to do. The New Moon on the 26th clears the path for new beginnings or a fresh approach to partnerships.

The last week of May is strong for relationship and creative excitement. Conversations or interactions with a significant person can be particularly illuminating, meaningful, or motivating. Sharing a vision or a unique experience can strengthen a bond.

May 2025 Monthly Horoscope Overview for Capricorn:

The month ahead is one of diverse themes, dear Capricorn, but perhaps most importantly, you’ll feel that you’re moving forward in May. This comes as a relief after the sometimes stuck, “in limbo” vibe of previous months. May is a month of more clarity in your home life or with living conditions and arrangements. Romance, intimacy, and health are also in the spotlight. There is a strong focus on both work and play this month.

Recreation, romance, creativity, pastimes, and hobbies can be sources of more pride, and involvement with these areas of life increases as the Sun transits your sector of joy until the 20th. You’re getting in touch with your need to express yourself as an individual in May. You are putting your unique stamp on whatever you’re doing, and this is an important process of self-discovery.

Pluto begins its yearly retrograde cycle on the 4th, and this change of direction prompts you to review your financial affairs, attitude towards money and things, what and who you value, and self-worth. While fears or worries related to money and security can magnify as this shift happens, the retrograde cycle itself, lasting until October, helps you gain perspective. With less pressure on you to control or micromanage your practical affairs, your choices and decisions improve! Even so, it’s important not to push matters that must evolve in their own due time.

The Full Moon on the 12th can bring sudden or unexpected social activity and epiphanies. It can liberate you from household responsibilities, for example, or it can bring a friend to you who wants your company or help. Alternatively, this can be a time to discover your feelings about a friendship or project. You’ve been quite preoccupied with your personal life and work these days, and now you’re being pulled out of your routine, nudging you towards a better balance. The Full Moon now is a reminder that giving back is rewarding.

Communications of all kinds are emphasized, but especially those involving creative contacts, children, and romantic interests, and they are generally favorable. It’s also a good time for self-promotion efforts, particularly through your creativity and clever ideas.

While there is much focus on diversifying and enjoying yourself, you find it very easy to throw yourself into your own special projects and interests. It’s difficult to find you in a state of boredom this month. Research and analysis can be fruitful and enjoyable. You are inclined to want to investigate matters. A satisfying work-life balance is entirely possible as you pay your work and personal life their due attention. Even so, at times this month, you may feel a little divided between keeping things light and fun or going in deep.

Venus moves through your home and family sector all month and softens any rough edges around the home. You’re combining work/chores and home life in beautiful, growth-oriented ways. It’s also rewarding to connect with your past or childhood issues and work through them, and as you do, you feel healthier or more determined to improve your health.

Favorable energy is with you for support, money, intimate connections, and personal appeal. You’re feeling peaceful yet also gently challenged and ready to take action. You can be especially eager to change your life, particularly on a deep, internal level.

From the 20th forward, more attention to work and routine is in the stars. The New Moon on the 26th brings further power to your work and health sector and encourages you to improve your habits and begin fresh with your routines. Lifestyle improvements are strongly favored after this New Moon. You’re taking charge of your services, working environment, daily life, or health matters. Take stock of your plans and their developments now.

Good experiences on the job are likely, especially in the last week of May. You are finding new ways to get along with others, and people are valuing your services. An idea can come to full bloom, and it can be about your health, daily affairs, chores, or work. Conversations or incoming news can lead the way to new beginnings. You have much to gain from what you see and discover now. You may have been wavering on a matter, trying hard to make sense of it, and now you’re more precise about it, or at least you know where you stand on an issue, and it feels good!

May 2025 Monthly Horoscope Overview for Aquarius:

Mars charges through your partnership sector, bringing relationships and interactions with others to life in May, dear Aquarius. You're also paying due attention to your domestic world, perhaps feeling prouder of your personal life, or you're recognizing the need to center and anchor yourself. Communications are more straightforward, and you're connecting well with others and your personal interests this month.

Where there were delays or extended periods of limbo recently, blocks lift in May. Slowdowns for you primarily revolved around communications, transportation, love, and money. May is vibrant, and while it promises some ups and downs, energy flows more smoothly. Financial gain could come from communications or siblings, and so can love opportunities.

Still, Pluto turns retrograde in your sign on May 4th, and this retrograde cycle will last until October. As the shift occurs now, there can be some magnification of unresolved matters, fears, or compulsions. However, once you get beyond this change of direction, the months-long retrograde cycle is excellent for detaching yourself from these things enough to see where you may have been overly worried or obsessing. You’re in a fine position to review and reassess your approach to self-starts, new beginnings, career matters, and responsibilities. If you’ve been over-controlling, you recognize this now and want to take some of the pressure off.

You are in a strong position to improve — and enjoy — your home life and family relationships this month. A fair part of you needs to recoup, regenerate, and decompress this month. However, you begin to crave special attention, fun and games, romance, or hobbies and recreation as May advances. You want to shine!

Around the Full Moon on the 12th is an eye-opening period. You can make some exciting discoveries, but you’re also likely to be called to action if you’ve been too heavily engrossed in your personal life. The Full (Flower) Moon occurring at the top of your solar chart plays a big role in this — you may be called to task, or simply required to fill a responsibility or take the lead now. It may be a time of a promotion, culmination, or the turning point of a project, recognition, a new title, status change, or award.

Renovations, redecorating, and making improvements that allow more freedom as well as organization and comfort on the home front can have long-lasting results. A lot is going on on the inside again this month.

There can be a competitive feel to your partnerships as Mars moves in opposition to your sign all month, and you may be putting more energy into your relationships than usual. Watch for a tendency to instigate or rile up a significant other or to treat a partner as a rival. There can be a tendency for you or a partner to be touchy or for arguments to emerge seemingly out of nowhere. You’re at your best when you work with someone towards a common goal. Perhaps the ideal way to use this energy to your advantage is to allow others to inspire and motivate you. Team up and take action so that excess energy turns outwards. This can be a passionate, revealing time.

Helping you out is Venus in harmony with your sign all month. This position does wonders for your personal appeal. Relationships are smoother as you put more effort into communication or better structure your personal interests to accommodate other pursuits and connections. It can be a good time to humble yourself to the need for improved connections and communication, which helps you in many different life departments. Your words can get you closer to others, at least in spirit. Collaboration can be excellent, and sharing a piece of work, joining a workshop, furthering a cause, or communicating with a new friend can be in happy focus.

From the 20th forward, there is a growing focus on entertainment, romance, and creative self-expression. You’re likely to end the month far more outgoing and confident than you began it. The New Moon on the 26th is an energizing, empowering one as it brings a feeling of rejuvenation or a fresh start with enjoying and expressing yourself.

The last few days of the month are good for gaining some clarity about creative projects, a relationship, or a hobby. You’re taking more pride in your work, ideas, and beliefs. Creative projects could reach a turning point, or there can be a romantic revelation related to a matter that has been developing for some time. An honest, open vibe, especially in your love relationships, is also satisfying.

Pisces

May 2025 Monthly Horoscope Overview for Pisces:

Mars animates your sector of work and health all month, dear Pisces, revving you up and motivating you to take care of business. You're bringing more muscle and motivation to your health and wellness or self-care programs. If you’ve been putting off going for a check-up or slowing down on fitness, for example, this is a time for getting back into action. You want to take charge. At times, the need to initiate, lead, and work independently can stir up competition or conflict with others, so do what you can to either tone things down a little or prepare yourself for a battle or two, depending on which you prefer!

However, May also features a pleasant focus on your personal interests, money matters, and home and family life. It also feels smoother. Most of the slowdowns or confusing moments in recent months are behind you now. May promises you steady forward motion. Clarifications and advances related to finances, business, communications, and transportation tend to figure strongly now. These things improve, flow naturally, and pick up momentum this month. You know what you want, and you’re picking and choosing your projects more mindfully.

You can often find yourself knee-deep in studies, personal interests, writing, speaking, errand-running, and connecting this month. You can be very influential or persuasive in your communications, guidance, or teachings with the Sun in your solar third house to the 20th and Mercury there from the 10th to the 25th.

May can be a big idea month, and it’s quite excellent for reaching out to others, although there can be times when you feel you have too much on your plate, and you can be a little scattered as a result. Dealing with errands and short trips may be more frequent but can also lead to some nice opportunities.

Around the Full Moon on the 12th, you can experience significant epiphanies and make personal discoveries. It's a time to connect with and release feelings that were previously held at bay or pushed down deep. Even though any Full Moon can feel heavy or draining, it can also be a time of release, liberation, announcements, and projects reaching a turning point. This one can feature a culmination of studies, published works, or the need for travel, adventure, or freedom to discover and explore things beyond your routine.

Still, Pluto begins its yearly retrograde this month, and with the shift happening, you might experience some intensifying fears, worries, or frustrations. Rest assured, these things should settle down shortly. The retrograde lasts until October, and it encourages you to observe and understand your attachments and fears. You may not have noticed how concerns, guilt, and control issues have worked against you. Now that you’re making these associations, it’s easier to work on healing and resolving problems.

You can be super-motivated this month to reach health and work goals, and you’ll stop at nothing to improve on past performance. You tend to want to set your own pace and goals, and you thrive on the small challenges you create for yourself now.

You are more of a free agent this month, and you are likely to come up with more ideas and plans than you can count. However, you should definitely watch for committing to more of these than you can reasonably manage. Finances are clearer. There can be nice prospects involving your income, family or home life. The desire to make yourself and/or your loved ones more secure motivates you. Business timing improves, and you may want to get creative with your work or routines.

The last week of the month brings a New Moon and the chance for a new beginning. Since the 20th, you've been more domestic-focused, and the New Moon helps you formulate goals in this area. There can be standout, meaningful conversations about or with family. Things may be coming together on the home front or regarding living conditions, and ideas can blossom. You are taking pride in your ability to handle personal matters! It's a wonderful time for pouring more heart into your domestic world.
