Your Weekly Horoscope Is Here And Gemini Season Has *Finally* Arrived

If you’re feeling the post-eclipse hangover, then your weekly horoscope for May 16 through May 22 will help you get through it. Though the blood moon in Scorpio reached its peak in the wee hours of Monday (or the very last ones of Sunday), its effects will be felt throughout the day and even the week as the collective digs deep into the heavy lessons of the lunation. What have we been unnecessarily holding onto? We’re sure to spend the next few weeks shedding our skins and other dead weight.

At the same time, this week will act as a harbinger of fresh energy, as Friday has us bidding adieu to sweet Taurus season for that of Gemini. Jokesters stand up because it’s your guys’ time to shine! While Taurus season saw us toiling, the sign of the Twins gives us full permission to let loose a little more!

So, beware of inflexibility both on your own part and that of others — and of course, the expected communication mishaps that such a retrograde tends to bring forth.
