ISLAND ASTROLOGER: CHECK YOUR HOROSCOPES THIS WEEK

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.

If your communication and relationships have felt stymied recently, then this is the week your words will flow easier and your connections will become clearer. Mercury, the planet of thought and explanation, turned retrograde on March 14 and turned direct on April 7. Under the now-infamous Mercury retrograde period, our technology goes haywire, our internet keeps going out at the wrong times and our ability to get our meaning across seems nonexistent. Mercury retrograde is a time to review how we communicate and to rethink our messaging. Venus has been retrograde since March 1 and is turning direct on Saturday, April 12. Under Venus’ retrograde, we do a deep audit on our relationships with others, and people from our past resurface. It is a time for relationship frustrations and a reconsideration of how we express ourselves creatively. If it feels as if you’ve been confused lately, you’re right on time. However, the planets keep turning and every transit changes. This is the week when our thoughts and relationships will begin to find their groove again. 

Here are your horoscopes for Mercury and Venus turning direct in Pisces. Read for your rising and sun signs.

Aries

March 21 – April 19

Under these retrogrades, you’ve probably found yourself retreating inward the past few weeks. Your thoughts have become self-reflective and self-protective, and you’ve created some distance between yourself and the people in your life. Stepping away is important from time to time, and you’ll soon be able to see the fruits of your retreat. 

Taurus

April 20 – May 20

As you’ve taken some more time to yourself, you may have noticed your support networks have shifted a bit. Have some people fallen into the background while others have come to the fore? Under these retrogrades, you have had the opportunity to reconsider who in your life is there to support you, and who is hanging around for ulterior motives. Take what you’ve learned and be choosy.

Gemini

May 21 – June 20

Now that you’ve parsed out who is in your corner and who is not, you are able to focus on the unique contribution that you have to offer the public. Your career, reputation and public purpose are coming into focus and the professional relationships you’ve nurtured are getting ready to give you a leg up. Speak clearly about what you want and see who puts out their hand.

Cancer

June 21 – July 22

You may have been feeling like you’ve been thrust into a confusing new adventure these past few weeks, and that is because you have. Unfamiliar terrain. New streets to walk. A different smell in the air. While your relationships and thought patterns have had to readjust, the reason for this shift will be coming clear soon. For now, try to appreciate the new horizons that have opened.

Leo

July 23 – Aug. 22

You’ve been doing some deep thinking about what you share with others. Your time, your money, your energy. It hasn’t always felt easy to speak up about what you need or where the limits are. That’s starting to shift. You’re ready to name what matters to you and be clear about where you stand. It’s a good week to get things out in the open.

Virgo

Aug. 23 – Sept. 22 

The people in your life may have felt confusing lately. Conversations have gone in circles or felt unfinished, and you’ve been left wondering where things stand. This week brings a reset. You’ll start to hear what others really mean and you’ll know how to respond. Don’t be afraid to check in again. This time, the message will land.

Libra

Sept. 23 – Oct. 23 

Your routine has been a bit out of whack and your body may be feeling it. Maybe tasks have piled up or you’ve been working through some health stuff in the background. Now it’s time to bring back some structure. You’re not meant to be perfect. You’re just meant to feel better. Start small and let things settle back into place.

Scorpio

Oct. 23 – Nov. 21

It’s been harder than usual to feel inspired or connected to what brings you joy. Romance might have felt a little distant or confusing too. This week, your spark starts to return. You’ll find it in music, movement, laughter or art. Let yourself have fun again. You don’t need a big reason. Just a moment that makes you smile.

Sagittarius 

Nov. 22 – Dec. 21

Your sense of home has been shifting lately. Maybe you’ve been thinking a lot about the past or feeling unsure about where you belong. That’s starting to settle. This week brings more peace and clarity around what makes you feel safe and supported. Let yourself lean into comfort. You don’t have to hold it all together by yourself.

Capricorn

Dec. 22 – Jan. 19

Lately, it’s been hard to get your point across. Whether it was a misread text or a phone call that never happened, communication has been frustrating. This week, things smooth out. You’ll be able to speak more clearly and people will actually hear you. Say what you need to say, even if it’s something small. It could open the door you’ve been waiting on.

Aquarius

Jan. 20 – Feb. 18

Money has been on your mind. You may have been rethinking your budget or feeling unsure about what you truly value. This week helps you reconnect with what feels worth it. Whether that’s time, effort or income. You don’t need to have it all figured out, but you can make choices that feel more grounded and fair to you.

Pisces

Feb. 19 – March 20

You’ve been going through a quiet shift in how you see yourself. Maybe you’ve felt unsure about how to show up or what parts of you to share. Now things are clearing up. You’re starting to feel more like yourself again and maybe even a little braver. Let the world see you as you are. You don’t need to explain it. Just be it.
