Overview for this Month: Virgo (All)
May 2022 Monthly Horoscope Overview for Virgo:
You begin the month just after a Solar Eclipse occurred in your spirit sector, dear Virgo, and your need for mental refreshment is high. Opportunities to break the routine emerge. Learning, sharing ideas, publishing, studying, or promoting are important themes in your life. Something that connects you with a new, different, or broader audience or with other ideas and cultures can be in focus now, and it's gratifying. A change of pace or scenery can be beneficial now.
An empowering Jupiter-Pluto transit boosts partnering or gaining new perspectives that improve your life. You could be taking steps to better yourself, feeling motivated by happier or more suitable relationship goals and needs. You're in great shape for growing your relationships, particularly with a partner, offspring, or romantic connection. This transit also leads you to satisfying ways to express yourself uniquely or creatively. Matters of the heart can have an almost magical quality to them, although also an intense theme! You're determined to connect with your desires and confidently pursue them.
Early May, you could have a mind-opening experience, or it's a time of finding inspiration by branching out and exploring places or topics you wouldn't investigate regularly. Your unique ideas, approach, or guidance can be in the spotlight. Opportunities to impress, publish or promote your services can figure strongly.
Close relationships and partnerships are also in strong focus this month. Transits have a way of revealing strong needs and desires in relationships. Venus, Jupiter, and Mars are animating your partnership sector until the 2nd, 10th, and 24th. However, with these planets moving into your intimacy and sharing sector, relationships in your life may deepen, or you gravitate to more absorbing projects. Certainly, your feelings and desires transform as the month advances. You could be consolidating or combining your resources, gaining financial support, or bringing a little more excitement to your intimate life.
You're investing quite a bit into others now, and together, you can accomplish much. You benefit from the involvement or company of others, even if you are pursuing your own goals.
Jupiter moves into your solar eighth house on the 10th, and it's the first of two parts of a cycle that's superb for financial improvements and your intimate life. This transit begins to unfold now and until October 28th. Increased benefits can come through others, a partner's income could increase, or you might combine talents with someone to work towards an important goal. Your intimate world is rich and deep, and your connection to someone or a passion project deepens.
Also from the 10th, Mercury is retrograde, and there can be some backtracking and delays. While offputting at times, they also allow you to refine and improve your projects. Redoing work or returning to old material or conversations and problems can make you feel a little stuck at times, but redirections can be helpful in the long run.
The Lunar Eclipse on the 16th can bring on discoveries, ideas, and changes in your mindset or attitude. Watch for impulsive self-expression, but give weight to your emotions and any epiphanies occurring now. Writing, learning, sharing, publicity, and promotion are themes that reach a turning point. This eclipse reminds you to connect with your true feelings about what you're learning, communicating, and sharing.
From the 20th, your attention turns to the rules and structures in your life, as well as career and responsibility. Transits stimulate you to reach new heights. This is one of the most goal-oriented times of the year, and it can also be one of the more public ones – people take notice of you, and you can be more accountable than usual. You can get unique insight into a career, performance, or reputation matter, particularly related to recent decisions and choices on the 20-21.
On the 28-29, there can be a connection, incentive, or motivation to get going on a personal or financial matter. You have emotional fearlessness and courage, and opportunities to come to a better understanding of an intimate relationship can emerge, or you might discover new resources or funding. Your resolve and conviction are likely to lead you to make important improvements. The New Moon on the 30th prompts a fresh start to your approach to achieving your goals, or even altogether new objectives and plans.

Virgo (Born August 23 to September 2) AND Virgo Ascendant 0 to 10 degrees Virgo:
May 2022 Virgo Horoscope: Love, Career, & General Trends
May 2022
The Sun this Month: Central Focus, Consciousness
Until May 20th:
The Sun continues to shine its light on your solar ninth house now. This is a cycle in which you seek to expand your experiences and awareness, whether through philosophical thinking, higher education, travel, or simply activities that take you away from your everyday routines. You may feel a little restless if you don't find ways to explore.
It's an excellent period for looking at your life from a different perspective--a broader one--whether you initiate this process or you make contact with others who stimulate you to think about your circumstances differently. Your energy is strong, open, and friendly right now, you come across well to others, and you are a little bolder and adventurous than usual.
From May 20th forward:
The Sun illuminates your career and reputation sector. More than any other time of the year, your focus is drawn to your "place" or standing in the outer world, and your reputation. This is the time when you are more interested in, and focused on, accomplishing something important. Your competency is something that you are especially sensitive to during this cycle.
You want to shine! Your vision is practical right now, and you want to see tangible results for your efforts. More contact with authority figures is likely during this period. Recognition is likely to come your way whether you ask for it or not, and the responsibility that comes right along with it! Do what you feel is right, keeping in mind that you are at your most visible during this period in the year.
Eclipse
A Lunar Eclipse occurs on May 16th:
A general rule of thumb regarding eclipses is to avoid major decision-making in the week before and after an eclipse. This is because new information that could change our perspective often is revealed in the week after the eclipse. There is absolutely no need to suspend projects already in progress. Essentially, it's better to take in right now--to observe and get in touch with feelings.
This Lunar Eclipse stimulates your solar third house. Surprises surrounding your siblings, neighbors, or classmates are in store. Something that has been in hiding or brewing under the surface of things comes to light, or there is a significant fruition or culmination. Your sector of communications is involved. This could manifest, for example, as the culmination of a writing project, an event involving a sibling that grabs your complete attention, a sudden opportunity for an adventure or trip, a flurry of activity in your immediate environment or neighborhood that demands attention, a letter or other communication that holds a big surprise, and other such possibilities.
Venus this Month: Love, Romance, Social Life, Comfort, Pleasure
From May 2-27:
Venus graces your solar eighth house now. During this cycle, a financial boost is possible, or you may gain financially through your partner. A deep and intimate connection made now could be revitalizing and even healing. You are more inclined to want to smooth over differences in a partnership concerning the sharing of power, intimacy matters, finances, and other emotionally-charged topics. Intimate relationships are intensified now. Either you or your partner want a deeper union.
From May 28th:
Venus graces your solar ninth house during this period. A taste for the exotic takes hold during this cycle. Routine affairs simply don't seem to satisfy. You receive pleasure from anything that expands your horizons, both physically and mentally. Foreign people and places may particularly appeal now. You tend to be expansive and generous when it comes to love. A love interest who attracts you during this cycle may be somebody who you previously wouldn't consider attractive, or someone whose cultural background is very different than yours. You have a taste for the exotic and the spirit to match. Public relations work, promotion, and other such endeavors are favored now. It is more about how you express yourself than the specifics of what you are saying that helps sway others to your position. There could be especial rapport with foreigners and with women if you are traveling during this period. You are all the more attractive and charming with this position, which increases your popularity. If a romance were to begin now, it is more likely to be with someone of a different background or educational level, or someone you meet through travel. You have a taste for the exotic now that can show up in many areas of your life--who you are attracted to, what you buy, the kind of art or entertainment you enjoy, and so forth.
Mercury this Month: Communications, Learning, Connections, Transportation
Until the 21st:
Mercury continues to transit your solar tenth house. Career matters are busy at this time, and there can be plenty of thoughts and/or conversations about your profession, your reputation, or your social standing during this cycle. It's a good time to analyze your work tasks and to streamline them or improve your skills. There may be increased contact with the public now, or you might experience an increased need to be heard and acknowledged for your intelligence, skills, capabilities, and ideas.
Mercury is retrograde from May 10th to June 3rd:
All Mercury retrograde cycles particularly affect you in terms of your own body language and personal manner (you may feel that others misunderstand you), as well as communications involving the career or public, because Mercury rules these areas of your life. You are ruled by Mercury, so the likelihood of being misunderstood, in general, is high. Put off career decisions as well, as career matters are Gemini-ruled for you.
Occurring in your solar ninth and tenth houses this time, extra care should be used when communicating with superiors and co-workers, and regarding travel or education plans. Delays are very possible. You may be re-thinking things regarding your life path, but it's best to think rather than act for now, as your judgment may be compromised. It would be wise to be especially clear when it comes to communicating with co-workers, professors, lawyers, and family members, or take this time to re-examine issues rather than communicating about them prematurely.
Mars this Month: Energy, Drive, Courage
Until May 24th:
Mars continues to move through your solar seventh house. During this period, strife is possible in your close personal relationships, as a significant other is now mirroring some of your own issues with assertiveness and anger. Attracting aggression in others during this cycle is a clue that there are unresolved issues within that need tending. You might actually seek some form of conflict, whether intentionally or not, in order to deal with these issues. There can be competitiveness in your life now. Any troublesome issues that have been dormant in a relationship are likely to surface, and can now be handled straightforwardly.
From May 24th forward:
Mars energizes your solar eighth house now. Sexuality and intimacy are stimulated under this transit. Negative expression of this energy is the tendency towards ego conflicts concerning jointly held property or money. Conflicts with partners over values or possessions are possible. Occasionally, this transit could bring a crisis or ending of some kind. Something you hear about now might disturb or touch you deeply. You are likely to be more strategic in your actions during this period, as you become aware of the subtleties of human interaction. This is a time when your best course of action is to recognize that you need, or rely on, others for support.

Virgo (Born September 3 to 12) AND Virgo Ascendant from 10 to 20 degrees Virgo:
May 2022 Virgo Horoscope: Love, Career, & General Trends
May 2022
The Sun this Month: Central Focus, Consciousness
All month:
This month, with the Sun spotlighting your solar ninth house, your focus turns outward, away from the more personal concerns that have occupied your thoughts in the last months. More than any other time during the year, you are feeling most adventurous and willing to take a leap of faith. This is a cycle in which you seek a higher meaning to your life, and/or seek out new experiences that take you beyond the here and now, and beyond the mundane details of day-to-day life. Anything that broadens your experiences attracts now.
A lack of superficiality finds you straight to the point, interested in the truth of things. It would be wise for you to consider scheduling a vacation, adventure of sorts, or a course that expands your mind. These don't have to happen now, but taking the time to recognize your needs for escaping the daily grind, taking a few risks, and feeding your spirit for self-expression through some form of adventure or higher learning, will help you to feel good about yourself. The only caution with this cycle is that you could lose touch with managing everyday affairs and important details.

Venus this Month: Love, Romance, Social Life, Comfort
Until May 11th:
Venus continues her trek through your partnership sector. Meaningful and harmonious relationships--both social and romantic--define you during this cycle, affecting your mind, body, and soul. Financial or social success may come to or through your marriage partner at this time. Special attention to and from a partner is in focus, and flattery works to your advantage! Give to a partner exactly what you would like to receive just now. It's not about you right now--it's about someone else close. Smoothing out your close personal relationships is what makes you happy during this cycle. You have a greater need than usual for contact and exchange with an intimate partner. If single, you are more willing than normal to enter into a committed relationship. In general, you are adaptable when it comes to your affections.

May 2022 Virgo Horoscope: Love, Career, & General Trends
May 2022
The Sun this Month: Central Focus, Consciousness
Until May 10th:
The Sun continues to highlight your solar eighth house. Your attention turns inward, as well as to close personal relationships on a deeper level. Personal transformations, personal power, and intimate matters fulfill you most during this cycle. There may be a strong focus on other's money, such as the resources of a partner, inheritance, banking and loans, or taxes.
You are more intense in your mood and disposition, and perhaps even secretive, at this time of year. You are more in touch with the deeper and even primal elements of your own personality, and more able to see these things in others. This can be a determined and personally powerful time of year if you apply the energy of this transit constructively.
From May 10th forward:
This month, with the Sun spotlighting your solar ninth house, your focus turns outward, away from the more personal concerns that have occupied your thoughts in the last months.

Mars this Month: Energy, Drive, Courage
Until the 11th:
Mars continues to animate and energize your solar sixth house. Energy and initiative for work, health, and other daily activities increase. You are self-motivated when it comes to these matters. If there are disagreements and disputes that erupt on the job now, they may be due to a feeling of stress or impatience, or they could come from your desire to get things done independently. It's best to apply energy productively to completing projects that are unfinished or even to get ahead of yourself. It's a strong period for feeling motivated for starting a new health or fitness routine.
From the 11th forward:
Mars energizes and animates your solar seventh house. Partnerships may suffer from ego conflicts, or opposition from others may be challenging. Use the extra energy that Mars brings to this sector of your chart to work cooperatively on relationship problems. You may even find that you seem to need someone's help in order to do what you want to do during this cycle. Relationships are vivacious and dynamic during this period. When a difference arises, you are quick to settle it, and have little patience for sweeping matters under the rug. Your close personal relationships are lively during this cycle--full of conflicts and resolutions or reconciliations.

Venus, Jupiter, and Mars are animating your partnership sector until the 2nd, 10th, and 24th. However, with these planets moving into your intimacy and sharing sector, relationships in your life may deepen, or you gravitate to more absorbing projects. Certainly, your feelings and desires transform as the month advances. You could be consolidating or combining your resources, gaining financial support, or bringing a little more excitement to your intimate life.
You're investing quite a bit into others now, and together, you can accomplish much. You benefit from the involvement or company of others, even if you are pursuing your own goals.
Jupiter moves into your solar eighth house on the 10th, and it's the first of two parts of a cycle that's superb for financial improvements and your intimate life. This transit begins to unfold now and until October 28th. Increased benefits can come through others, a partner's income could increase, or you might combine talents with someone to work towards an important goal. Your intimate world is rich and deep, and your connection to someone or a passion project deepens.
Also from the 10th, Mercury is retrograde, and there can be some backtracking and delays. While offputting at times, they also allow you to refine and improve your projects. Redoing work or returning to old material or conversations and problems can make you feel a little stuck at times, but redirections can be helpful in the long run.
The Lunar Eclipse on the 16th can bring on discoveries, ideas, and changes in your mindset or attitude. Watch for impulsive self-expression, but give weight to your emotions and any epiphanies occurring now. Writing, learning, sharing, publicity, and promotion are themes that reach a turning point. This eclipse reminds you to connect with your true feelings about what you're learning, communicating, and sharing.
From the 20th, your attention turns to the rules and structures in your life, as well as career and responsibility. Transits stimulate you to reach new heights. This is one of the most goal-oriented times of the year, and it can also be one of the more public ones – people take notice of you, and you can be more accountable than usual. You can get unique insight into a career, performance, or reputation matter, particularly related to recent decisions and choices on the 20-21.
On the 28-29, there can be a connection, incentive, or motivation to get going on a personal or financial matter. You have emotional fearlessness and courage, and opportunities to come to a better understanding of an intimate relationship can emerge, or you might discover new resources or funding. Your resolve and conviction are likely to lead you to make important improvements. The New Moon on the 30th prompts a fresh start to your approach to achieving your goals, or even altogether new objectives and plans.

About Our Monthly Horoscopes:
Our detailed monthly horoscopes are designed to reveal and interpret the current transits of the Sun, Mercury, Venus, and Mars in your solar chart.
Because these energies or transits do not unfold neatly into any given calendar month (many transits carry forward from one month to the next), you will find some of the energies continue from the previous month.
For example, the Sun might transit the second house of your solar chart from June 21 to July 22, so that you will find a similar interpretation for this transit in both June and July’s horoscope. This is normal and expected. While new months can hold new energy, transits don’t abruptly change because the calendar month changes.
These monthly horoscopes also include an overview paragraph, as well as other energies specific to the month, such as retrogrades, eclipses, or major outer planet transits.
The Highlights section reveals lunar cycle dates. Lunar cycles repeat themselves approximately every 28 days, so it is normal to see the same lunar peaks, such as “Your Personal New Moon” and “Monthly career peak” repeat themselves from month to month, but with different dates. They serve as a helpful guide to cycle peaks in different areas of life, such as financial, career, romance, and partnership.
The horoscopes are divided into three groups or decanates, and the differences between the groups are subtle in parts and large in other parts. For those who prefer a whole sign approach to horoscopes (classic), simply read the first decanate regardless of your birthdate.
