The sun has officially moved into the sign of Gemini, the time of year when we get curious about the world around us, pay attention to the quality and quantity of information we share and receive, and let our thoughts wander into new territories of reverie. It is the season of fact-finding and fiction-making. Make sure you’re paying attention to which is which. This week is a good time to get serious about relationships, focusing on authenticity over breadth. Who do you consider true connections? With whom can you have difficult conversations, knowing they will still be around on the other side of the dialogue? On Thursday, Venus in Cancer forms a 90-degree square to Saturn in Aries. Think of this as the beautiful lover facing the critical eyes of the strict father. Love can be fun and games, but there are also hard truths that require attention. To work with this transit, acknowledge that all things beautiful require time and testing and try to incorporate that wisdom into your week. We also have a full moon in Sagittarius on Sunday, May 31. What grand belief will you build from the information you gather? How will you integrate the disparate bits of knowledge that you have into a cohesive wisdom? There is a level of faith required just to be alive and to get out of bed in the morning. Use this full moon to realize and nurture your faith, whatever that looks like for you.
Here are your horoscopes for Venus square Saturn and the Sagittarius full moon. Read for your rising and sun signs.
Gemini
May 21 - June 20
Happy birthday season to all of our brilliant Geminis (myself so humbly included). Supporting yourself does not have to be burdensome. There are ways to survive AND experience love and joy. Taking to heart the hard truths that your friends share with you will only help you to achieve the abundance that you deserve. This full moon, appreciate an important partner in your life.
Cancer
June 21 - July 22
Loving yourself isn’t always easy, but it is absolutely necessary. Don’t shy away from seeing the beauty that you uniquely bring to the world. Feel your oats. That doesn’t mean traipsing around singing your own praises. Under this sky, you are being encouraged to be more restrained at work and in public. Use that as a power source. Under the full moon, get into a new daily routine.
Leo
July 23 - Aug. 22
You’re not known for your quiet repose, Leo, but solitude and reflection are necessary for everyone at times. What peace and love can you find in the quieter moments? What beauty awaits when you’re alone? Show some restraint in any grand adventures that call you away and choose your peace now. Under the full moon, do something creative to light your spark.
Virgo
Aug. 23 - Sept. 22
Take some time to appreciate all of the people in your life who show you love. You don’t have to do anything per se, just see and acknowledge. One of the best ways to do this is to be clear about your boundaries. Boundaries create relationships. See how you can negotiate your boundaries with those you love now. Under the full moon, come home.
Libra
Sept. 23 - Oct. 22
What do you love about the work you do? It doesn’t have to be everything, but it should certainly be something. Turn your focus to the things that you really enjoy and make those bigger in your awareness. An important partner in your life can help you define those things right now if you are struggling on your own. Under this full moon, say what you want to say.
Scorpio
Oct. 23 - Nov. 21
Pay attention to the adventures that are tugging on your heart strings. Where do you want to go? What do you want to learn? They might just be daydreams right now, and there is a lot of work you need to do — nose-to-the-grindstone sort of thing. But the work you accomplish now can support your dream adventures. Under the full moon, enjoy payday.
Sagittarius
Nov. 22 - Dec. 21
Vulnerability isn’t always easy, and you want to make sure you’re vulnerable with the right people, but it is something that will allow your heart to breathe out right now. You are getting serious about your creative projects at the moment, and the challenge is to make sure that you still can let your hair down with others. Under the full moon, check yourself out, babe.
Capricorn
Dec. 22 - Jan. 19
Sometimes, our important life partners are taken for granted. That’s understandable because they get woven into the daily fabric of life. Under this sky, though, look at your partner with fresh eyes and fresh appreciation. There may be some challenges or hard lessons at home, but your partner can be a soothing presence. Under the full moon, find some quiet and retreat.
Aquarius
Jan. 20 - Feb. 18
Every day, we all have stuff we gotta do. Brush the teeth. Make the bed. Eat the food. Clean the clothes. These constant mundane tasks can be met with boredom and frustration. But you can also choose to approach your daily chores and routines with a love that reminds you that you GET to do them. Try that out right now. Under the full moon, be with friends.
Pisces
Feb. 19 - March 20
Follow your bliss, Pisces. That is good advice all the time, but right now in particular, there is a creative love in your heart that is just begging to be released. What do you have to share with the world? Make art for your own joy rather than any monetary hopes. Show some discipline in your spending and be creative instead. Under the full moon, show your face in public.
Aries
March 21 - April 19
Home is where your heart is right now. Being at home and with family, whatever that looks like for you, is a source of genuine grace. You are being more disciplined with yourself, which might make it hard to calm and regulate yourself at home. Do your best to appreciate your sanctuary when you can. Under this full moon, allow yourself to adventure past the horizon.
Taurus
April 20 - May 20
While you are finding new forms of discipline in your quiet solitude, you do not need to carry those hard boundaries out into the world with you all the time. Your local environment is a source of love and appreciation right now. Find your siblings, whether blood or chosen, and just sit in the harmony they create. Under this full moon, invest in what you want to grow and receive what you deserve.
As Saturn slowed down and turned retrograde last week, you may have noticed events taking place in the world that encouraged us to reconsider our political structures. (ahem, Key West City Commission meeting, ahem, presidential debate). Saturn represents the structures and authority figures that exist in society, so let these events continue to turn over in your mind for the next five months as you consider what structures we need for a healthy social contract. This week, we see Mercury forming a 180-degree opposition to Pluto followed by a new moon in Cancer. When the intelligence of Mercury opposes the shadow of Pluto, we seek a tense balance between the analytical mind and unconscious impulses. We think about our instincts; we talk about our traumas; we move into spaces where the natural world can embrace us. There is potential for intense arguments and gaining clarity about our compulsions. Our thoughts may turn dark, which can also help us to think critically about the light. The Cancer new moon on July 5 is particularly cozy because the moon rules the sign of Cancer, so she is at home. We are all experiencing a fresh start in our emotional worlds, particularly with our nearest and dearest. So set some intentions for your hearts.
Here are your horoscopes for Mercury opposite Pluto and the Cancer new moon. Read for your rising and sun signs.
Cancer
June 21 – July 22
This is your new moon, crabbycakes! If you find that anything is holding you back from who you want to be, this is the perfect time to get clear on your self-development and how people perceive you. Set intentions now and see what emerges in two weeks. How are your financial decisions serving or not serving a purpose greater than yourself? Is there another way to think about money and motives?
Leo
July 23 – Aug. 22
Sit with the feelings that emerge in the quiet, meditative spaces. This new moon is for making sure that you know how to be fully supported even when there is no one around and nothing to do. What would that look like? A powerful conversation with a significant other in your life is an opportunity to understand yourself better. Try to think of yourself objectively. It’s impossible, but it’s a worthwhile venture.
Virgo
Aug. 23 – Sept. 22
Are you feeling an almost obsessive drive to work or to keep busy? Remember that your mind needs respite, so try to find quiet time for your thoughts to settle. Hard work can support a peaceful mind. If you find a new group of friends or possibly even a new support network, suspend any suspicion and see how they help you in two weeks.
Libra
Sept. 23 – Oct. 23
A fresh start at work is being offered to you under this new moon. A new project? A new promotion? A new career entirely? If you feel it now, invest your energy and see what emerges in two weeks. You seem to have some powerful creative inspiration coming through. Think about the people in your life who nourish versus the people who drain your creativity. Make some choices.
Scorpio
Oct. 23 – Nov. 21
With work on your mind, you may notice something really powerful taking place at home. This is not a time to avoid, rather a time to use how you think about work to help you manage the issue at the homestead. Let this new moon crystallize a new adventure for you. Plan for a vacation, sign up for a new course of study, join a new faith community. It’s time for a perspective shift.
Sagittarius
Nov. 22 – Dec. 21
This new moon is a great time to invest in something you care about. You can give your time, your energy, your skills, your money – and you should receive a relatively quick return. There is some intense, almost obsessive, energy in your local neighborhood, and you may be thinking about getting out of Dodge for a bit. That would be worthwhile, but the issue will be there when you return.
Capricorn
Dec. 22 – Jan. 19
Is there a possible new relationship in your life? Did you meet someone and are you wondering where it might go? Enjoy the moment and reassess in two weeks under the full moon. You’ve begun a powerful new entanglement with money and possessions in recent months, but think about how you might make them work for other people, too. Hoarding stops the flow.
Aquarius
Jan. 20 – Feb. 18
If you have been wanting to start a new daily routine or build some new habits into your life, this new moon is the perfect time to get started. Whether you start a new morning routine, a new exercise regimen, or a new workflow, it will be supported. Even though you are embarking on a powerful, personal metamorphosis, you can still think about partnership.
Pisces
Feb. 19 – March 20
Think about your physical health and how it relates to your mental health. You have a powerful transformation taking place in your unconscious, and focusing your mind on how you take care of your body will help to anchor you. You have a creative, joyful endeavor being planted under this new moon, so follow your bliss.
Aries
March 21 – April 19
When intensity starts to show up in your friend network, it is helpful to turn your mind to your own means of self-expression. How do you show up, and how do you avoid getting caught up in the dramatics? Think of what actually brings you joy. Set some intentions for your home and family under the new moon. How would you like to see your personal world progress?
Taurus
April 20 – May 20
Do you need to try to communicate something in a different way? This new moon affords you an altogether different way of getting your point across. So try it, and see the results under the full moon in two weeks. Power struggles at work have you thinking about home more. Let thoughts of home help provide solutions for the intensity in the office.
Gemini
May 21 – June 20
A new financial opportunity is opening up. Apply for that job, take that gig, open that savings account. You will see results in two weeks, so get going. With some serious new things coming into your life, your mind needs time to remember what is familiar. Let nostalgia kick in for a time and see how far you’ve come.
