Happy May, Virgo. This month pushes you to step outside of your comfort zone. But don't worry, you can still relax and get cozy. As the hermit of the zodiac, you need your solitude, but you also have a low-key adventurous streak that needs nurturing. During April, you were reminded to pause before firing off any heated texts. May is more about pausing to take care of yourself while allowing a personal evolution to take place.
The first major cosmic event of the month comes on Thursday, May 2, when Pluto, known for its deep transformative power, goes retrograde in Aquarius, impacting your 6th House of Health. But don't worry. This isn't a sign of impending illness; rather, it’s an invitation to overhaul your wellness routines. Whether you're intrigued by new skin-care regimes, curious about injectables, or exploring trendy hair colors, embrace this star-approved excuse for a makeover. Moving on to Tuesday, May 7, your makeover turns inward. The new moon in Taurus encourages you to embark on new intellectual adventures. Whether you feel inspired to start posting GRWM videos, write poetry, or embrace doing absolutely nothing, now is the time to pursue what genuinely interests you.
On Tuesday, May 14, the theme of feeling good continues when Ceres, the asteroid of nurturance, begins its retrograde in devoted Capricorn. This transit is a perfect time to deepen your connection with pleasure and find new ways to enjoy life's simpler delights. For some Virgos, this means taking advantage of your beloved alone time to connect with yourself with a sex toy. Others will enjoy newfound enjoyment in partnered sex. Others will prefer to connect with physical pleasure through other avenues, whether a massage, a spiritual bath, or, hey, all of the above.
Communicator Mercury moves into luxurious Taurus on Wednesday, May 15. This transit is likely to make you feel creative, encouraging you to express yourself through poetry, playing music, or simply relaxing and listening to some. The next day, on Thursday, May 16, Pallas, the asteroid of wisdom, goes retrograde and enters Scorpio, affecting your 3rd House of Communication. This shift notably challenges you to step outside your comfort zone, Virgo. You might feel compelled to reach out to someone new or explore unfamiliar social scenes. Ideally, you'll reach out to an acquaintance and turn the relationship into a thriving friendship, perhaps by going to see a band you've been curious about or checking out that bar you always walk by but have never gone in to. Your star assignment is to expand your world, Virgo. There are opportunities to stay in and watch TV later in the month.
The sun enters social Gemini on Monday, May 20, marking the beginning of Gemini season and spotlighting your coveted 10th House of Social Status. The coming weeks are all about enhancing your visibility and reputation. Be on the lookout for exciting emails and opportunities that could elevate your professional life. However, you might want to minimize screen time on Thursday, May 23, which brings a full moon in Sagittarius. While full moons are beautiful and illuminating, they can also bring a touch of stress. It’s a good idea to plan a quiet night at home on this date. Use this time for rest and relaxation, allowing yourself to recharge in the comfort of your own space. Yes, after being pushed to socialize, dear hermit, this is a nice for relaxing with your favorite show or a nice cozy book.
May 23 creates a delightful, prosperous vibe that you should absolutely try to take advantage of.
On the same day, Thursday, May 23, beloved Venus, the planet of love and beauty, not to mention money, enters chatty Gemini. This transit not only enhances your appeal in professional circles but also brings a boost to your financial and romantic prospects. We'd hate to promise money in this economy and then it not happen, but know that this date does create a delightful, prosperous vibe that you should absolutely try to take advantage of. The end of May is epic for getting ahead in any professional and/or creative pursuits. On Saturday, May 25, lucky Jupiter, the planet of expansion, enters Gemini and further enhances your 10th House of Social Status. This powerful influence promises to bring growth and good fortune. It's okay to dream about your dreams coming true, Virgo. Your manifestation powers are epic, so go ahead and tap into them. We'll see you in June.
