Know your value

Believe in you

Big, courageous unstoppable love propels you higher!

May is all about your cash and your values. Feeling you have enough, knowing you ARE enough. The latter being far more important than the former as it determines your worth and what you believe you can receive. Not just in terms of money and material stuff. But also love, recognition, support. No matter what the current state of your bank account, it is your self-belief which sends your personal stock up or down for the next 12 months.

Invest in that above all else, Aries! Jupiter’s stay in your sign should have given you the ultimate confidence shot. Now, take that and use it when it comes to getting smart about your cash, income, investments, possessions and what you feel you can have and attract. Including lavish, limitless love as Jupiter moves out of your sign and into Taurus and your 2nd on the 16th.

For those who would say this sounds like boastfulness, self-aggrandisement or narcissism – good self-esteem has nothing to do with any of the above. Something given has no value. And you are setting your personal value system so you don’t give yourself away, Aries.

You are now in your money/self-esteem peak. Where you should be certain of your true worth, Aries. Don’t allow the eclipse in your ‘other’ money house on the 5th to dilute this. This can bring up self-doubts, have you questioning your decision making process or personal power or temporarily see your focus waver. This is a penumbral lunar eclipse. So, unlike a total lunar eclipse, the Moon only passes through part of the Earth’s shadow. This causes a subtle dimming of the Moon’s surface rather than the ‘Blood on the Moon’ effect we associate with a total lunar eclipse.

Eclipses conceal. There’s a lack of emotional self-belief around you on this day. Maybe your usual confidence takes a knock when you don’t receive the result or feedback you expected. There may be more to this than meets the eye. And its nothing to do with you or what you’re serving, Aries. So, wait for more clarity. And above all, don’t give in to pressure around this time. Your strength and determination are part of those self-worth tools! More in our Full Moon in Scorpio Moonscope.

Jupiter also opens the vault doors in your 2nd. Roads to a source of new income or increasing your current one. Jupiter is in its ka-ching! position where you can benefit in material ways from its open-handed generosity. Jupiter wants to go fund you, Aries. But you have to do your part in turn. By cultivating an abundance mindset. And by exploring all the myriad ways you can earn more.

There’s so many Jupiter resources available for you right here to mark Jupiter’s grand entrance into Taurus. These include your Jupiter in Taurus forecast for your sign. And your Jupiter Juice Shot Tarot Forecast. Don’t forget to add them to your resources this Jupiter cycle!

If you have been left feeling Jupiter forgot the personal relationship factor for you as it transitted your 1st – the good news is that Fat Cupid just gets more accurate with those little arrows in your 2nd. That is because this house/sign is ruled by Venus. And also because it rules our assets – the greatest of these being love.

Everything else in the sky feels like small change even though it can bring you big benefits.

Unstoppable you knows what they want and that enhanced self-esteem means you’ll go for it. The ability to act is what activates your power to attract. Venus in your 4th also turns your attention to what you love close to home. You’re in soft, all-embracing mode when it comes to expressing your feelings. Which you do with a gentle fearlessness. Aries.

A late-starting new Moon in your 2nd (19th) is your jump-start for your Jupiter cycle money plans. And to werk that worth in as many ways as you can come up with. More in your New Moon in Taurus Moonscope.

What you do you do with a blaze of glory and clear intention. Steer clear over getting all steamed up over inconsequential things as ruler Mars arrives in Leo and your 5h. Turning up heat and passion. And asking you open up that heart. Along with Jupiter in your 2nd, this makes you more generous than usual with what you have. But do ensure that you don’t bestow this where it is unappreciated or not reciprocated on some level in kind. Do keep in mind what I said about what is given away having no value. If what you give generously isn’t appreciated this is a reflection of how you in turn are valued. It’s a useful benchmark.

The Sun’s arrival in your 3rd along with a trine to Pluto (21st) and a Mars/Pluto opposition the same day, rewards those who act with courage and conviction around love, what they love to do, with glory and the spoils. Not a day to be timid, Aries. It’s about more than cash although you should have more to count. It’s about your worth and how you work it. So, anyway and every way you can – and with that little bit extra.

In a nutshell: Jupiter’s arrival in Taurus is all about what you earn and own. Your income, savings, possessions. But also something far more valuable, Aries. That sense of self-worth. It’s what determines what you receive. Both materially – and in love.

taurusTAURUS

A celebration, Mr. Blue Sky’s up there waitin’
And today is the day we’ve waited for

Oh Mr. Blue Sky please tell us why
You had to hide away for so long (so long)

Mr. Blue Sky, Electric Light Orchestra

It’s been a 12 year wait, but Jupiter’s arrival in your sign (16th) kick starts a new cycle of blue sky optimism. But this Jupiter visit will be like no other you’ve experienced before. And do take 12 year leaps back in time to get a feel for what Jupiter is about to deliver. That’s because unlike previous Jupiter visits, this one takes place at the same time as you have Uranus in your 1st. It’s electric blue, surprising, out-of-nowhere opportunities, solutions and answers. It’s personal wishes and dreams.

Mr Blue Sky is waiting to deliver out-of-the-blue opportunities for you as both planets simply want your freedom. And to see you stretch yourself and soar! Your task is simply to remain open and flexible to make the most of this. Do not cling to the way things are, Taurus. Get out of your own way in other words. Love and other opportunities may not look like they did in the past. Or how you think they should. It’s that kind of open-mindedness and willingness to take a chance that will see you making the most of this cycle.

Don’t be your old self. And yes, you can now be as extra as you like, Taurus. Rock a new look or style that signals you are different. And no longer want to be served the same old, reheated soul food. What plans do you have for your coming cycle, Taurus? Make them super-sized. That move, course of study, big idea, bucket list trip. Once Jupiter arrives, put them into motion.

Focus more on your appearance. Yes, it DOES matter and more than usual. This is your calling card and your signal to Jupiter (and Uranus which rules your individuality), that you are ready for the different and dynamic. Dress up, not down. Even if your job requires you wear a uniform you can do things to showcase your own personal style. Outside of that – unleash your look the way you have always dreamed of doing. Your face is in focus as is your entire appearance and brand. On and off-line. You’ll have many opportunities in the coming cycle to make a good first impression on new people. So, make it your best one.

There’s so many Jupiter resources available for you right here to mark Jupiter’s grand entrance into your sign. These include your Jupiter in Taurus forecast for your sign. And your Jupiter Juice Shot Tarot Forecast. So, dip in!

Mercury has been retrograde in your sign which may have given you a slow start to your birthday cycle. It will head direct once more the day before Jupiter arrives clearing away retro confusion and giving you permission to launch!

First we have an eclipsed full Moon in your house of partnerships on the 5th. This is a penumbral lunar eclipse. So, unlike a total lunar eclipse, the Moon only passes through part of the Earth’s shadow. This causes a subtle dimming of the Moon’s surface rather than the ‘Blood on the Moon’ effect we associate with a total lunar eclipse. Do watch for repressed emotions and unexpressed feelings. You often hold back, Taurus. Usually out of consideration for others. Or sometimes out of a sense of obligation, duty or desire to keep the peace! But if there is something you are not saying – or feel your other half is keeping to themselves, then it’s time under this full Moon to air it. Or else ask some gentle questions.

You will do this tactfully and do be aware that these themes can come up two days either side of the eclipse. Ruler Venus is on the move into your 3rd from the 7th. Enhancing what you have to say with sensitivity. And injecting creativity and insight into projects or business plans. Expect blue sky electrifying crackles of inspiration, surprises and opportunities around the 9th when the Sun and Uranus collide in your sign. This could offer a release from the status quo or from something that has held you back for far too long. It could come out of nowhere and may ask for a fast answer, you think on your feet or else have to head in a radically new direction. And if so, take it this is just what you need. And that it is doing the groundwork for you to receive even bigger benefits from Jupiter.

The new Moon in your sign marks the first stage in what will be a longer journey. Where you and key elements of your life will be remade. And you get a taste of new found freedom. It’s a totally fresh start as it appears just days after Jupiter’s arrival (19th). No longer opt for what is familiar and known, Taurus. Opt for the road less travelled. More in your New Moon in Taurus Moonscope.

Mars crosses into your 4th on the 20th while the Sun moves out of your sign the following day. Do not resist the call to change or move towards something bigger. Your home, lifestyle or living space may feel restrictive now. And if so, ask yourself if it is time to do something about it? Mars is not responsible for triggering sudden dissatisfaction around this. If you stop, you’ll see it has been simmering for some time. Mars however can bring it to boiling point where you are impelled to act.

The same day sees the Sun trine Pluto in your status seeking 10th while Mars opposes it. This brings about a change in how others see you, your career, your title, your relationship status. Your 4th rules not just home and family but your own path. If anything has come to feel confining, if you make the effort, you can break free. Or the universe (in the form of Jupiter and Uranus) step in now and offer an exit route.

The 21st may also offer you the first of those opportunities to make your very best impression, Taurus. Especially if this is linked to your career or people in positions of power and influence. A key area shifts and as it does, you and your image has a big impact on the result. Show them you’ve been waiting for this. And are ready. And be prepared to step up and into something new, bigger and better.

In a nutshell: Colour you big, bold and blue, Taurus. Jupiter joins Uranus in your sign this month. Be ready for out of the blue opportunities and some blue sky thinking when it comes to following those personal dreams.

GEMINI

So are you willing to wait for the miracle
Willing to wait it through
Are you willing to wait for the miracle
Or don’t you believe they’re true?

Walk on Water, Marc Cohn

Deep insights flow at the start of the month. And if you have been seeking solutions, expect them to arrive. Via dream courier, the internet of synchronicities or a profound ‘Ah-ha!’ moment. Ruler Mercury retrograde in your 12th until the 15th, has had you delving deep into elements of your past. If there are still questions left to answer, or if you have yet to gain the perspective you’re seeking to make a decision, rest assured the clarity or answers you seek are coming.

Keep the faith and know the truth is not just ‘out there’ but also to be found within as an eclipsed full Moon rises in your 6th. (A Mercury ruled house in your chart). This is your turn on, tune in and drop out – or unplug at least for a night, full Moon. It carries with it wisdom, revelations and inner knowing. It will eventually reveal hidden truths if these still elude you.

This is a penumbral lunar eclipse. So, unlike a total lunar eclipse, the Moon only passes through part of the Earth’s shadow. This causes a subtle dimming of the Moon’s surface rather than the ‘Blood on the Moon’ effect we associate with a total lunar eclipse. So, just like intuition and insight, this Moon whispers the emotional truth behind something for you. Check your Full Moon in Scorpio Moonscope.

Confirmation may arrive via a gut feeling, that dream or coincidence, a line in a film or book, a song on the radio, an article you read, a throwaway remark from someone else. It shows you the truth and also the way forward. Just be aware it IS the truth – not what you may want to hear. But do act on it no matter what. To ignore it will simply keep you stuck. And that stops the flow of miracles into your life. Which are now crowding on the threshold, wanting to be let in.

Venus moves out of your 1st and on into its ruling 2nd in your chart (7th). Venus in here puts you in a money making mindset. But if you are after extra (and this transit usually promises something extra to work with), then its likely you will spend it either on your home or something which enhances your lifestyle in some way. You’ll be seeking to invest in anything which adds both beauty and longevity to your life. Do watch out however as Venus in here only wants the best for you. Sensual pleasures of the soul. Artworks, decorating items, the finest food and wine. You’ll seek to surround yourself with and ingest beauty through all your senses. And to also share these experiences with those you care about. Venus in here doesn’t like the term ‘budget’. That implies austerity. Something Venus simply doesn’t do. Do try to stick to yours however.

Even though under this transit you should go for the very best option you can afford. If you try to cut corners, Venus falls out of love with it very quickly. Leaving you wishing you had splurged in the first place. Under this Venus transit ask yourself what saves you (and the planet) the most in the long haul? Buying several fast-fashion items you discard quickly. Or buying that one timeless piece that costs more (even pre-loved), but which you are still using 10 years down the track? That’s Venus in your 2nd.

Once the Sun arrives in your sign (21st), mysterious and magical coincidences intertwine to bring you what you want. Especially when it comes to what you need. Don’t forget what we believe we want and what we actually need are often two very different things. And during Jupiter’s transit of your 12th which begins on the 16th, you’ll come to appreciate this.

There’s so much to explore this month. And is on offer for the coming year. It’s a deep dive into possibilities. And a chance to reclaim something shining from your past along the way. You won’t miss the energy shift which will impact on you mind, body and soul as Jupiter moves into Taurus and your 12th on the 16th.

Jupiter’s influence on you, especially when combined with Uranus in here, is a profound awakening to the truth. And what do we say about that? It sets you free. It may also arrive via strange channels, out of this world experiences, angels arriving unawares (this is your house of good karma!), and blessings in disguise.

Travelling back to the past will feature. And if you are literally travelling, you may revisit places you have been to before. In more than one lifetime. But sometimes we have to go back to the past to reframe it, reclaim lost parts of it (Jupiter restores lost opportunities), or simply heal and release it for good in order to move on. 2025 will see Jupiter arrive in your sign so Jupiter in your 12th lays the groundwork for this upcycle next year.

How all this manifests or arrives can be via your beliefs, therapy, self-help, psychic work, your creativity, meditation, mediumship, dream work, religion, past-life regression, investigation, the quantum realm and the multiverse. A higher power is at work now. And you do need to heed your intuition at all times. There’s so many Jupiter resources available for you right here to mark Jupiter’s grand entrance into your sign. These include your Jupiter in Taurus forecast for your sign. And your Jupiter Juice Shot Tarot Forecast. So, take a deep dive, Gemini!

The new Moon in your 12th which appears three days after Jupiter’s arrival in here should also point out the shining path towards a truth for you. When it comes to your purpose, the answers you seek or even an important detail you may have missed. While your ruler Mercury works its way out of retro-shade, do be aware the past is active and this includes people from it.

Watch who or what resurfaces and above all, do NOT jump to conclusions once Mars reaches your 3rd from the 20th. You are entering a peak energy period where everything old that still is useful can be repurposed. But you do need to be looking forward and not backwards once the Sun arrives in your 1st on the 21st.

Set your intentions and prepare for a powerful change to appear as the Sun trines Pluto in your 9th while Mars opposes it – all on the same day. It’s a snow plough event where something which has been blocking your path is cleared away for good. Your ideas are filled with confidence and zesty desire to enact them and for things to be different than they have been in the past. Eyes on the future prize, Gemini! There’s no looking back from this point onwards.

In a nutshell: Magic and miracles, your belief in a higher power, insight and intuition and great creative leaps of the imagination. It must be the Jupiter effect as it joins ruler Mercury and Uranus in your 12th. Time for acts of faith and to believe that the universe does have a plan for you, Gemini.

What needs to be brought out into the light?

Make this your Year of Saying Yes

Three wishes await you

Something needs to be cleansed or brought up into the light between you and someone else. Alternatively, its something that has been weighing down your soul for far too long. Bubbling up to be released. And don’t you feel better once this occurs, Cancer?

The full Moon on the 5th is eclipsed. Let’s just say whatever needs to be healed or let go of, has been stopping you from living in your true glory. Dimming your right to shine. This is a penumbral lunar eclipse. So, unlike a total lunar eclipse, the Moon only passes through part of the Earth’s shadow. This causes a subtle dimming of the Moon’s surface rather than the ‘Blood on the Moon’ effect we associate with a total lunar eclipse. Do be gentle on yourself and above all, watch and wait. Allow two days either side of this full Moon to really see what shadow needs to be let go of. As usual, you’ll find more insights in your Full Moon in Scorpio Moonscope.

Lucky you as restoration, rebirth and rejuvenation quickly follow as Venus arrives in your sign on the 7th. That’s the point you appreciate just how healing this has been. Venus in our 1st is one of the best and most powerful transits of attraction. It makes us feel our best and that rise in our energy field is what boosts our ability to draw what we want to us. But there’s more!

Time to play with your quantum future and wish fulfilment as Jupiter enters your 11th on the 16th. This occurs the day after Mercury ends its retrograde in here. Time to put those plans into action you’ve been mulching on during the retrocycle. And I always tell people to make three wishes whenever Jupiter transits their 11th house. And to expect at least one to manifest during the following 12 months.

Uranus is the ruler of your 11th and Jupiter joins it in here. Which makes this Jupiter cycle all the more surprising and exciting in terms of who you meet and their impact on how your future unfolds.

To make the most of this cycle, be willing to step outside of your usual social circle. This is about existing friends, groups, associations – yes. But also about treasures found outside of these. It’s a year for saying yes to invitations. To having an open mind. Don’t judge or say ‘That’s not my scene’. Your scene may need a change. And you don’t know whether something is or isn’t until you try it.

People power, clubs, groups, bands, movements, unions and networks – on line and off it, have a massive role to play. How Jupiter works is always through other people. So do let them in. Free spirited, worldly, different and daring people will cross your path. Awakening you to new possibilities or experiences you may not have even known existed. Jupiter never pushes, just invites. So RSVP to the positive for the next 12 months.

There’s so many Jupiter resources available for you right here to mark Jupiter’s grand entrance into Taurus. These include your Jupiter in Taurus forecast for your sign. And your Jupiter Juice Shot Tarot Forecast. Tools with which you can design your future. Dip in, Cancer!

An exciting preview of what’s to come could appear as early as the 9th when the Sun and Uranus co-join in your 11th. Remain as open minded and flexible as you can on this date. Do not get too attached to plans or ideas of what opportunity looks like. If unsure of the latter ask: Does it open my heart? Can I feel my pulse begin to race? Am I filled with a sense of excitement at the thought of it? Those are your cues to go for it!

The 15th also sees Mars about to leave your sign link to Neptune in your 9th banishing any lingering hesitation. You are a spiritual warrior on a quest, Cancer. Your destination? A bigger, higher, more resonant love experience!

Begin those Jupiter future plans NOW with the new Moon in your 11th on the 19th. This is one of the most change engaging new Moons of the year for you. If you social life has become stagnant, then it is vital you take steps to change that in the next two weeks. The same goes for those goals. Take steps towards them. Because if you don’t what doesn’t evolve under this new Moon stays the same way for the coming year. That’s how important this is to set in motion your Year of Saying Yes. More in your New Moon in Taurus Moonscope.

Your intuition has a role to play now the Sun arrives in your 12th. Do heed its wisdom and keep the faith in following its prompts. There is a plan and you have the courage to follow it thanks to Mars now in your 2nd (20th). The Sun will trine Pluto in its ruling 8th while Mars will oppose it – all on the 21st. Powerful agents or even angels of change are set to make sweeping transformations for you. Above all, don’t resist this. Or refuse entrée into new circles of experience. Instead dance in the vortex of possibilities. Something new starts now.

In a nutshell: Jupiter bursts into your 11th house of friends and the future like the Genie of the Lamp, Cancer. And yes, you do get three wishes. Provided you take steps towards manifesting them in the next 12 months, expect at least one to come true. Open sesame!

Ain’t no mountain high enough

Pace yourself

Bring the heat!

Power and passion. Fierce and unstoppable. You are the heat once Mars reaches your sign on the 20th. Knowing exactly what we want is always the first step to getting it. With you there’s no doubt and no hesitation. You’re the double threat sign especially once your ruler the Sun enters your 11th the very next day. You don’t just blaze a trail but like your ruler, you are too scorching hot to look at directly!

Shady behaviour by others won’t be tolerated. You are stepping into an important cycle when it comes to your friends and contacts. And also wish-fulfilment, Leo. Goals will take on new meaning for you. A vision of how you see yourself in the future fires you up. And you are determined to live it for real. And do whatever it takes to make this happen.

Don’t lose your momentum this month. There may be a few stops and starts but overall, you should be able to power onwards and upwards. However, do look at whether a course correction or recharge needs to take place first. The full Moon in your 4th (5th) brings us the hidden dimension of an eclipse. Asking for quiet time and for you to part the veil and see what stands between you and what you want.

This is a penumbral lunar eclipse. So, unlike a total lunar eclipse, the Moon only passes through part of the Earth’s shadow. This causes a subtle dimming of the Moon’s surface rather than the ‘Blood on the Moon’ effect we associate with a total lunar eclipse. It’s okay to down-shift on this day. To decompress, nurture yourself and surround yourself with whatever or whoever gives you support.

Something may have been carried over from last month and please don’t allow resentments or irritations to fester. Especially to the point where they boil over. You need to be patient with yourself and also with others under this eclipse. More on how to navigate it in your Full Moon in Scorpio Moonscope.

Jupiter’s move into Taurus and your 10th bigs up those ambitions. There ain’t no mountain high enough that you won’t attempt it. Either in your career or your personal life. Raise your expectations along with your belief in yourself and how far and high you can fly. Another good reason to take the opportunity to recharge, Leo! You have new worlds to conquer. And that rep to work.

This month offers a triple boost up that ladder of success both personally and professionally. Your 10th house rules your status, yes. And that includes your relationship status. And the status of your partner. Singles are seen as a keeper by love prospects seeking something serious. Your professional cred soars and if you are asked to step up into a more prominent role, be ready to take it. Don’t doubt your ability to deliver.

The triple dates to watch for are the Sun/Uranus conjunction (9th), Jupiter’s arrival (16th) and the new Moon in your 10th (19th). These days are important and when you should set plans in motion. Especially once Mercury ends its retrograde in here from the 15th.

Venus is also the planet to watch when it comes to your career. May sees it enter your 12th from the 7th – same day as Ceres heads direct in Venus’s ruling 2nd in your chart. In your 12th this is less about material success. You have Jupiter working on that deal for you. But more about your path and purpose. What you are here to do. And in some cases, the path missed or not taken. If you feel you are in the wrong job or profession, that will become clear between now and September. And Jupiter and Uranus will see you exploring alternatives which not only have you thinking outside the box, but finding the right box for you!

Ruler the Sun is on the move and as it slides into your 11th, asks how your other half or your relationship goals make up that larger success story? Your ruler trines fresh baked Pluto in your 7th as it arrives (21st). While Mars in your sign opposes Pluto. This points to a status setting shift around a key union or the emergence of a powerful and transformative new one. Watch how as the Sun edges further in to your 11th it shines on friendships but also massive love potential for you. For singles, that could see that person who is most definitely Catch of the Year appear. Or you feel closer to your current squeeze than ever.

In a nutshell: Take the opportunity to rest and recharge at the start of the month. Because May brings you a yearly cycle where you hit the ground running, Leo! And there’s no stopping you once Jupiter reaches your success sector. You are the heat this May!

Lost in translation? That’s the audience not your message, Virgo!

Go big or stay home

No more settling for small, so-so love

Your attention to detail always extends to anything you say or send out, Virgo. Your meaning is clear (at least to you). But it just seems someone is going out of their way to misinterpret your meaning. No matter your explanation, they are sticking to their translation. Of course, Mercury retro in your 9th right up until the 15th adds to the confusion. But what certainly doesn’t help is the eclipsed full Moon in your 3rd on the 5th.

This is a penumbral lunar eclipse. So, unlike a total lunar eclipse, the Moon only passes through part of the Earth’s shadow. This causes a subtle dimming of the Moon’s surface rather than the ‘Blood on the Moon’ effect we associate with a total lunar eclipse. Watch if you are taking exams, for travel disruptions, road closures especially locally, cancellations, breakdowns and all the usual retro mayhem. But coming from a direction you simply didn’t plan for.

Or that Lost in Translation moment where you end up protesting ‘I didn’t say that!’. A pro tip under this eclipse combined with Mercury backwards is to steer clear of speculation and gossip. And also, if you don’t know the answer to something – admit it. Don’t bluff. If you do it will come back to bite your backside. Leaving you with a lot of explaining to do. So my advice is – don’t, Virgo.

If someone wilfully chooses to take offence, there is not a lot you can do but wait for Ceres to head direct in your sign from the 7th. This day also has peace-keeper Venus arrives in your house of friendships and connections. So, if you need to clear something up and finally get your true meaning across, wait until the eclipse shadows have dissipated. More in your Full Moon in Scorpio Moonscope.

Holding back on projects and plans is obvious under a Mercury retro. Especially with the eclipse in Mercury’s ruling house in your chart. Before we arrive at the good stuff that’s too amazing to miss which is occuring in your 9th this month, I have one more caution for you concerning friendships and people you know. Mars lands in your 12th on the 20th and could expose someone’s true colours. It may be any misunderstandings you go through at the start of the month are in fact a symptom of something which runs a lot deeper than you first thought.

If you feel something is going on with someone you know, first understand it may not be about you! Someone may be ‘off’ with you because of an issue going on you don’t yet know about which is totally unrelated. If this is an otherwise close connection, then become the gracious truth-seeker and ask for insight. Glitches with those we know can happen under a Mercury retro/eclipse just as they can occur with our technology. As always – communication settings are the key.

Jupiter returns to its ruling 9th in your chart after a 12 year absence on the 16th. That’s the day after Mercury gets going again in here. In your 9th, Jupiter is at its most open-handed, opportunity creating and go-fund-me generous. A cycle of eye-opening and mind blowing expansion awaits you like no other, as Jupiter joins Uranus in here. A once in a lifetime double transit set to take you into the wide blue yonder.

Sudden, surprising and unlooked for opportunities are signatures of this Jupiter/Uranus cycle. It asks you be ready to jump when they appear. They are like lightning strikes which both planets actually rule. Uranus because it rules electricity and storms. And Jupiter because in mythology it is associated with Zeus in Greek myth and Thor in Norse, both of which wield lightning. Look out for bolts from the blue especially around the following: Long distance travel, bucket list trips, foreigners, doing business overseas, university and college, mass media, transportation, the law, religion and philosophy, taking a chance, sports and the outdoors, open borders and access all areas, exploration and large animals – especially horses.

Jupiter removes barriers. Uranus assists by demolishing with no advance warning. Which is why you need to be ready. Freedom of movement, the only way is up is what both planets want for you. Whatever has been in your way magically vanishes leaving a highway to heaven in its place. However, do remember that sometimes going towards what we want often asks us to leave something behind. That’s the deal you strike with the cosmos.

Jupiter always offers more and there’s so many Jupiter resources available for you right here to mark Jupiter’s grand entrance into Taurus. These include your Jupiter in Taurus forecast for your sign. And your Jupiter Juice Shot Tarot Forecast. Use these to maximise the Jupiter effect.

Blocks and barriers should begin to dissolve once Ceres gains traction again in your sign. Especially around money if that is what is holding up realising those dreams. As I said, Jupiter is in Go Fund Me mode. Especially if what you are seeking the cash for relates to anything Jupiter ruled. A big move or dream. A chance to break free and experience something wilder, different and more expansive.

Single? Watch for someone larger than life yet sensually sexy too. A walk on the wild side may be just what you need. Please don’t try to tame a wild soul though. They either agree to be with you but trying to fence them in just sees them disappearing over that horizon.

A massive hint as to what Jupiter may have planned for you appears along with the new Moon in your 9th on the 19th. This marks the first stage of a new journey of experience for you. Above all, don’t wait for life to find you. Go seek it out. More in your New Moon in Taurus Moonscope.

The Sun moves into your career sector on the 21st. Igniting Mars’s curiosity as it arrives. Old, bold souls are reawakened now and you will begin to embrace your lost greatness as the call to adventure arrives. You are the mythic warrior on the S/He/Theyroes journey. Anything that confines or restricts has zero appeal. This includes that day job or routine which now needs to expand to include the larger vision for yourself which has been set in motion. If you are not content, then now your ruler is direct you will take steps to break free of any rut you’ve fallen into.

In a nutshell: If the month starts with confusion it ends on a high note. Optimism, clarity and intent of purpose sees you leave small minds and even smaller dreams far behind you. Second star on the right – and straight on till morning, Virgo!

Put your feet on the path to prosperity

Love/money. Two sides of the same coin

Enter the boom boom room!

Wherever Jupiter goes, benefit flows. Do keep that in mind for the next 12 months as Jupiter leaves your 7th of partnerships, and enters your 8th of sexy self-empowerment and big money on the 16th.

Jupiter’s ability to send unexpected ways to boost that bottom line is enhanced this cycle due to the presence of Uranus also in here. Do remember as this is your house of transformation, that any changes which occur – even the unexpected kind, are designed to put your feet on the path towards something better. This may not always be obvious at the time. It’s only later that you realise what initially looked like a setback was anything but that. So, if faced with an ending, you might want to suspend judgement on it. And keep as universal and open mind as possible.

Ruler Venus is also on the move this month. Entering Cancer and your 10th from the 7th. Right now you have all the tools you need to strike that perfect balance between your professional ambitions and your emotional ones. Each are equally important. But sometimes our focus can become a little skewed. Venus shows you what real success looks like. And that you don’t have to sacrifice inner satisfaction for worldly gain.

Backed by Jupiter’s largesse and now Mars’s scorching confidence as it enters your house of the future on the 20th, now is moment to go for it. And access all areas success. Do you have a billionaire mindset? Or at least an abundance attracting one? And what does ‘rich’ actually look like for you, Libra? You are being asked to look closely at this at the time of the eclipsed full Moon in your 2nd on the 5th.

This is a penumbral lunar eclipse. So, unlike a total lunar eclipse, the Moon only passes through part of the Earth’s shadow. This causes a subtle dimming of the Moon’s surface rather than the ‘Blood on the Moon’ effect we associate with a total lunar eclipse. Rich is not a number on your bank statement. Neither is it that walk-in closet the size of a department store. Yes, these can enhance your feeling you are materially well-off. But keep in mind that people who always want more are usually being triggered by a feeling that they themselves are never enough. Or are actually operating from a place of ‘never enough’. The reverse in fact of feeling rich.

Do keep a close eye on your money under this eclipse. It can lead you into emotional spending on things you don’t need. Or you may make an emotional decision around money or investments rather than a practical one. The hidden power of this eclipse lies in your ability to practice gratitude and to add up what you DO have. Not what you don’t. Thank your income no matter how small. Thank yourself for your efforts in generating it and managing it. Now look to all your other resources. Your talents, skills, possessions, experiences, friendships, support network and the love that surrounds you. Chances are you are richer than you imagined when you add this up.

This sets you up to make the most of Jupiter’s ability to open the vault doors for you during the next 12 months. Think of yourself as starring in the ultimate heist movie. But it’s all legit! Uranus’s influence can inspire your inner entrepreneur. While Mars in your 11th from the 20th hands you the ignition to launch those money spinning plans and schemes.

Seduce like a billionaire during this cycle, Libra.. Big, bold bedroom moves are favoured. Make it sensual. If you are still single after Jupiter’s transit through your 7th and want this to change, Jupiter gives you the ultimate sex bomb makeover. With the confidence and inventiveness to go with it. New heights of experience await you and that lucky lover. Open the passion vault as well as the financial one.

Settled? Your partner should be in extra sharing mood. They want to show their generosity and appreciation. Also Jupiter in your 8th can hand them financial boom booms too. There’s so many Jupiter resources available for you right here to mark Jupiter’s grand entrance into Taurus. These include your Jupiter in Taurus forecast for your sign. And your Jupiter Juice Shot Tarot Forecast. Enter the boom boom room, Libra!

Now – watch for powerful and all sweeping transformations and be ready to act on the 9th (Sun/Uranus conjunct in your 8th), the arrival of Jupiter (16th) and rise into your full power and potential with the new Moon in here on the 19th. Watch for career changes coming in which give you access to so much more.

As the Sun arrives in your free wheelin’, idea shiftin’ 9th on the 21st, it aligns to retro Pluto in your 5th while Mars in your 11th moves to opposition. Lovers and children may feature. And both may ask you to be a little more relaxed and take things in your stride. Especially if they are the ones stressing! Yes, you may need to be there to provide you usual balanced overwatch, Libra. But your ability to take things in your stride helps them regulate. So, so keep this in mind if there is any drama on this day.

The coming month promises a leap forward into a new dynamic. It shows you what can happen when you are willing to go where change wants to take you instead of resisting it. It is also vital you undertake a learning journey now da Sun is in Jupiter’s house. Anything that stretches you and expands your mind while doing so. For some this may be literal. You may embark on a course of formal study. For others, doing something new or travelling opens their eyes. Follow through on those ideas in the coming month. Whatever you do – don’t stand still. Especially when the door you’ve been knocking on for so long, opens finally, Libra.

In a nutshell: Of course being ruled by Venus you instinctively get love and money are merely opposite sides of the same coin. And true success includes the emotional kind as well as the material. Lucky you has keys to the boom boom room where both are possible now.

SCORPIO

Refine that living vision

Watch for revelations

Time to rise in love!

Ruler Pluto puts on the brakes in your 4th heading back towards your 3rd from the start of the month. You know you are in for back-and-forth refinement between now and the end of 2024. And here comes another period of renegotiation and readjustment.

You’ve a bumper month ahead and you’ll begin to feel the impact of this and what it portends on the 5th with a deeply resonant full Moon in your 1st. This is as up close and personal as it gets for you with emotional full Moons this year. This is because this Moon is eclipsed. It’s shadowy message concerns you and a past, present or potential connection. Your emotional compass is the guidance you need to remain true to. Don’t dismiss its wisdom.

This is a penumbral lunar eclipse. So, unlike a total lunar eclipse, the Moon only passes through part of the Earth’s shadow. This causes a subtle dimming of the Moon’s surface rather than the ‘Blood on the Moon’ effect we associate with a total lunar eclipse.

Chill with your boo. Have a royal experience together if you are in the UK. Let that person know they are your consort in every way. You are now heading into a period unlike any other when it comes to duos, duets and double acts. Love will be the surprise factor in more ways than one. As will be partnerships of all descriptions. The Me and the You of it. The It Takes Two. If you are one, and want that to change, know this is one of your best opportunities to do that you’ve experienced for a very long time.

Single? It may be time to work on you. Or at least your history with relationships. Something can be released from the shadows – a pattern perhaps, which holds you back. The kind of relationship or rather partner you see yourself with may need to be adjusted. Along with your image of yourself. Take all the time you need, Scorpio. Because something big is just around the corner.

Venus is on the move taking a flight of fantasy into your 9th and showing you new potential around (7th). This is your house of expansion, travel, opportunity and luck. This eclipse will actually clear away old emotional debris once its shadows clear. Although you may not be aware of how deep this process is until later. And there’s a big reason for this happening right now, Phoenix. Because on the 16th, Jupiter moves into your 7th of duos, duets and double acts promising you the biggest love experience in 12 years! So, who needs anything which could get in the way of that?

This Jupiter cycle will be like no other you have experienced nor will again. That is because it joins Uranus in here. Love IS the surprise for you now. And both Jupiter and Uranus want to evolve your understanding of it. Single? That potential love prospect may look very different to anyone you have been involved with in the past. They could come from a very different country/culture/background/profession/social sphere. They may break the mould when it comes to your ‘type’ if you have one. And that’s a good thing.

Settled? The sky may be the limit when it comes to what two can do together. But do keep in mind that if it’s broke, Jupiter can’t fix it. And anything that ends has been lived out. The couple who sets goals together, evolves together however. A joint vision or dream is your love glue.

Of course, that partner in crime or fellow mischief maker could come in the form of a collaborator, business partnership, working relationship, bestie or activity partner. You may even try on more than one kind of partnership for size during this cycle. Take it that one relationship will prove to be pivotal or some to prominence during the next 12 months. And whatever it is, it’s all love.

There’s so many Jupiter resources available for you right here to mark Jupiter’s grand entrance into Taurus. These include your Jupiter in Taurus forecast for your sign. And your Jupiter Juice Shot Tarot Forecast. Get some loved-up insight as Fat Cupid’s about!

The new Moon in your 7th (19th) could beam in a new relationship prospect for some. Or see you and the other party contemplating that next step together. If you are single, now is the time to put yourself out there. Maybe in ways you have not thought about before. Of course, nobody should do anything they don’t feel comfortable with. So, if dating apps are not for you, then you should honour that feeling. But do explore how you can attract, be seen and above all, be willing to experiment with this.

The engines of change are engaged after the 21st so be ready. And this involves the Sun’s arrival in your 8th (21st), as well as your two rulers Mars and Pluto. Powerful and transformative changes are triggered thanks to the trine between the Sun and Pluto and Mars opposing Pluto from your 10th. Expect exciting developments in your career or a new opportunity to appear.

If you have any lingering doubts as to your worthiness when it comes to love, or any questions around a partnership, you can expect these to be answered for you over the next month. Once the Sun reaches your 9th in June, watch how barriers, questions and any remaining confidence issues vanish.

In a nutshell: An eclipsed full Moon in your sign puts the emphasis on a key connection. This occurs just before Jupiter serves up your biggest and most heart-starting It Takes Two experience as it arrives in your 7th. Where does love want to take you next, Scorpio?

Create a way that works

Ruler Jupiter asks: What’s your rush, Sag? Slow down, smell the roses (or their equivalent). Don’t miss the magic of the moment (which is why its called ‘the present’ incidentally!). The 16th sees Fat Planet move from your ra-ra glitter cannon 5th and into your slow and sensual 6th.

You’ll feel the shift immediately. It also starts as early as the 5th for some of you when a secretive and subtle full Moon is masked by an eclipse in your 12th. This may touch on an old issue that requires your time and focus. Or a need you keep shoving aside. Unexplored desires and dreams, old wounds demand you take time out and give them the attention they deserve.

This is a penumbral lunar eclipse. So, unlike a total lunar eclipse, the Moon only passes through part of the Earth’s shadow. This causes a subtle dimming of the Moon’s surface rather than the ‘Blood on the Moon’ effect we associate with a total lunar eclipse.

This sets a different vibe when for once, even you are content not to rush. And also to focus on ‘where you are and what you are doing’ – to preface Yoda. Strangely the more time you take, the more you will achieve during this cycle. That does not translate into dull and predictable however. More in your Full Moon in Scorpio Moonscope.

Heed the need to change the pace for the next 12 months. Strangely, Uranus which is the planet which rules electricity, shocks, revelations and revolutions also in your 6th, is asking you whether the work/lifestyle revolution you need to embrace is a slower one? Overturn the rush in other words.

If you are seeking work, a different position, a four day week, a hybrid work situation or even working for yourself, take it that the Jupiter/Uranus double act in here will offer you at least one opportunity to achieve that in the coming year. Above all, be in the moment as this is where opportunities suddenly appear in your path. And ask you to act on them right there and then.

This calls for confidence, a lack of hesitation and a strong conviction about what is right for you, Sag. Mercury’s change of gear in its ruling 6th the day before Jupiter’s arrival signals changes ahead. Time to make those applications or prepare to launch those projects and plans. Jupiter intends for you to free yourself of that grindstone. Be it a mental, physical or financial one.

Others may find their partner or spouse is also looking at job changes. If you are The Boss, be prepared for staff turnover. This applies if you are CEO of a large organisation or even just with one personal employee such as a cleaner. However, if people do leave, the square peg for the square hole appears.

Health and wellbeing changes are also on their way. More exercise and certainly with the slower pace around you, more mindfulness. You’ll be drawn to anything that centres you, focusses on your breathing and again, may not require speed such as jogging or that Peloton, but allows you to be fully present while building strength. You may favour walking, yoga, pilates, horse riding, archery over that spin class.

Set that fresh regimen in motion, get that application in, launch that project, sign up to that course to upskill yourself, open the windows in your home and your soul and let in the fresh air on the 19th with the full Moon in your 6th.

There’s so many Jupiter resources available for you right here to mark Jupiter’s grand entrance into Taurus. These include your Jupiter in Taurus forecast for your sign. And your Jupiter Juice Shot Tarot Forecast. Take your time exploring them. And continue to dip in and out of them during this cycle as they will remain up on the site for the entire Jupiter in Taurus transit.

Downshifting also means making time for love and what you love. Because to add to the joy of being in the present comes the gift of your yearly partnership peak. Which coincides this year with the arrival of Mars into your 9th. Venus’s arrival in your 8th on the 7th announced the fact beautiful changes were in the air in a key area. Now comes fire, impulsion and the desire to act as the Sun crosses into your 7th (21st). As it does it trines Pluto in your 3rd while Mars in your 9th opposes Pluto. News, an offer, a literal journey or an opportunity to embrace something bigger brings a powerful rebirth courtesy of the cosmos.

This can be a new relationship or the next stage of an existing one. A job offer. Access to what you need to take that next crucial step. A solution to something that has had you stuck. Over the coming month, stay present but watch for who plays an increasingly important role in your life in some way on a day to day basis. They could indeed be linked to your work. But they could also be that new activity partner, your live-in partner or the emergence of someone who seems intent on re-envisioning a key area of your life and introducing you to a new one. That’s the Jupiter effect in your 6th. Be present for the gift.

In a nutshell: Ruler Jupiter has a very different vibe in your 6th of daily living and wellbeing. It asks you slow down, be totally present in the here and now. That’s why we say the present is a gift. If you are in too much of a hurry – you just could miss yours, Sag.

moon capCAPRICORN

What is that connection crying out for?

Kick-start outrageous fortune

Thunderstruck love comes out of the blue

Does a friend need the special kind of practical love or advice only you can give? Is there someone in your circle you feel may be withdrawn, holding something back or simply wanting to feel your connection? If a name springs to mind, you might want to follow up with them. Maybe just a call, message or suggest a catch up. There’s more going on than meets the eye under the eclipsed full Moon in your 11th (5th).

This is a penumbral lunar eclipse. So, unlike a total lunar eclipse, the Moon only passes through part of the Earth’s shadow. This causes a subtle dimming of the Moon’s surface rather than the ‘Blood on the Moon’ effect we associate with a total lunar eclipse.

Also watch for glitches in your technology, ghosting, clickbait, catfishing, malware, mirror sites of your favourite brands offering ‘90% off’ deals, deep fakery or that swipe who seems to be all-in or offering too much way too fast. If it’s too good to be true – take it that it is under this eclipse. More ways to stay out of the eclipse shadows on the web and elsewhere are in your Full Moon in Scorpio Moonscope.

This will not overshadow the month however! You crave fun, the unusual, adventure, excitement, passion and romance. You’re looking for someone or something to pour those desires into now Jupiter crosses into your 5th (!6th). Catnip or Kryptonite, Cappy? Or a bit of both?

Massive attack! Big passions, big experiences, big loves, super-sized pleasure. That’s the Jupiter effect in your 5th. It’s an all-or-nothing transit. Especially as this time around Jupiter joins Uranus in here. Jupiter takes 12 years to orbit the Sun. So it spends one year in each sign of the zodiac. It’s been 12 years since Jupiter last paid this house in your chart a visit. But never before nor again will it do so at the same time as Uranus. This pairing tells you: big surprises are in store.

Love struck as both planets are associated with lightning. Like a bolt out of the blue singles could be suddenly smitten. Love is electrifying but also unpredictable. It’s the ultimate rollercoaster ride for you. You’ll love with an intensity you may not have felt before. And quite possibly for someone dramatically different to anyone you’ve fallen for in the past. Jupiter should deliver you at least one contender for your heart while in here for singles. And revive the heady early days of passion for settleds.

Be at your most outrageous, uninhibited and self-expressive during this cycle. Your creativity or your unique vibe is what gets you noticed. Jupiter in your 5th shakes your world. But also shakes you up and out of any existing relationships which aren’t working.

Watch your spending as Jupiter in here can have you blowing your budget. You may adopt an ‘easy come, easy go’ attitude to your cash. Jupiter is feeling generous in your 5th and its easy to fall into the trap this will continue. That the money will turn up to cover the costs. It can and may – for a while. But living large shouldn’t mean living irresponsibly.

This is your house of children and please don’t forget – Jupiter expands while Uranus brings the unexpected. You see where I’m going with this. With all this desire and passion, the urge to act on impulse, do take extra care if expanding your family isn’t what you want right now. If you are a parent, watch for unexpected changes in their school, university, path or their own family dynamic.

Travel is highlighted as this is your house of holidays. You’ll do very well on last minute deals if you haven’t booked in advance. That long haul trip you’ve always dreamed of taking could suddenly be as affordable as a short one if you are prepared to depart on short notice. So do check for deals online.

There’s so many Jupiter resources available for you right here to mark Jupiter’s grand entrance into Taurus. These include your Jupiter in Taurus forecast for your sign. And your Jupiter Juice Shot Tarot Forecast. Get that loved-up feeling happening. And yes, it IS all around you for the next 12 months! Plus your sign gets a head start over others – even Scorpio which has Jupiter in their 7th. That’s because Venus enters its ruling 7th in your chart on the 7th prior to Jupiter’s arrival. Making this the summer of love for you, Capricorn.

You’ll witness a key new beginning around this on the 19th which sees the new Moon appear in here. This is the acorn from which an oak tree will sprout. So do watch for what you start, create, who you meet, where you go or what the cosmos places in your path on this day. Over the next two weeks new shoots of growth will appear. This is also a new Moon under which to take a calculated risk or a chance. To have a ‘What have I got to lose?’ mindset. To dare to discover that answer!

The Sun shifts into your 6th on the 21st. And as it does it trines Pluto in your 2nd of money and assets. Pluto in turn opposes Mars now in what is its ruling 8th and your other cash zone. This highlights a powerful opportunity to have or earn more for you. A promotion, new job offer, gateway to doing just that via study, upskilling or being your own boss. Harness your talents, skills and strong inventive streak. Your staying power and willingness to deliver is what sets you head and shoulders above the rest. Work that, Capricorn. As well as joy, pleasure and romance, this month wants to deliver other good stuff such as recognition, success and fresh resources. Jump for joy now Jupiter’s here!

In a nutshell: What comes spinning out of the wide blue yonder is like a starship about to beam you on board to take you to planet pleasure, Cappy. A bigger, breathtaking love experience awaits you. So, don’t hesitate. Go boldly.

aquariusAQUARIUS

What’s hot and what’s not – you know it

Get a grand design for living

There’s no space like your place

Pluto moves backwards in your sign from the very start of May. Early Aquarians with planets at 0o will have been affected so far. This month also sees those Aquarians impacted by the arrival of Mars in your house of duos, duets, double acts and duels on the 20th. The Sun lights up what’s hot and what’s not – you’re smokin’ and all this heat means there’s none without fire on the 21st as it lands in your 5th. As it arrives it will trine Pluto while on the same day Mars will oppose Pluto.

What’s happening between you and another is now on like Donkey Kong or else frozen past defrosting. There will be no middle ground with your feelings. It’s very much all or nothing, Aquarius. Intense, compelling, scorching attraction and heat. Raging passion. Creativity and love which has to have an outlet. Or just so mehhhhhhhh . . . You won’t be able to fake anything for the time Mars remains in here. Not that you can ever be bothered with that. You are only ever interested in being you. And in the real deal in return.

Take it that any union which doesn’t allow you full expression of who you are is now very much on the down-slide. You won’t be able to fake that either. So, own whichever side of the emotional spectrum you are on. And be honest about it. Do check your chart for anything at 0 degrees of Aquarius or your opposite sign of Leo. Including the Nodes, asteroids, Asc/Dsc and IC/MC. If you are unsure, one of our astrologers can translate for you.

All that lies ahead for you after the third week. First, let’s look at the key role an eclipsed full Moon has to play in the bigger picture and also your ruler Uranus. This occurs in your 10th house of status and professional advancement. It is going to have a big impact on you in terms of your career or even your relationship status or your partner’s career.

This is a penumbral lunar eclipse. So, unlike a total lunar eclipse, the Moon only passes through part of the Earth’s shadow. This causes a subtle dimming of the Moon’s surface rather than the ‘Blood on the Moon’ effect we associate with a total lunar eclipse.Hopefully you have not been running on empty. If that is the case, the universe is about to send you a clear signal that you need to slow down. If you are on the wrong path, you will probably get another signal of a different kind. But the message will be clear despite any eclipse’s ability to conceal.

The eclipse will impact ruler Uranus in your 4th of home, family and security. And obviously these areas are often intertwined with our work and career progress as it is the latter which forms a bedrock of our security. Along with who we consider family of course. If you have been putting one above the other, you’ll now see the need for readjustment of priorities.

A key date to watch for the effects of this eclipse making itself known will be the 9th when the Sun and Uranus meet in your 4th. Ahead of retroactive Mercury’s move forward from the 15th, you will also benefit from Venus’s entry into your 6th on the 7th. This enhances your work and career prospects and brings in a new level of satisfaction. Although you need to be vigilant when it comes to doing or taking on too much at the expense of other areas of life and be mindful of your health, for many Aquarians the end of the eclipse cycle across your 4th and 10th can usher in recognition and a new sense of satisfaction and stability. More in your Full Moon in Scorpio Moonscope.

It’s electric blue slippers time so click your heels together and repeat: There’s no place like my place as Jupiter joins ruler Uranus in your 4th from the 16th. This will prove to be a lifepath/style determining cycle like no other. On its own in here, Jupiter opens doors to a bigger and more satisfying life phase. Often in the form of a move or home improvement. It’s an All Shook Up lifestyle transit. But the result works for you, Aquarius.

In collaboration with your ruler however, this adds up to a Grander Design. One that you can create which is designed to give you real living space. Your way. Not what may have worked for your parents or family. Now, this may be the same vision. But if your idea is different to what you grew up experiencing, then this changing rooms cycle has you renovating your life from top to bottom.

You’re unique. So, shouldn’t how you live or your home reflect that? Jupiter asks you honour your calling. For some this may mean following your family traditions. For others, breaking free to establish your own.

Living better, bigger and freer are the foundation stones of love and satisfaction with your life. Jupiter’s largesse combined with your ruler’s revolutionary sense of freedom adds up to literal moves, keys to doors and relocations. What you are seeking is the home like no other. But so you. Here’s another tip if you are looking to make money out of your home during this cycle. Aside from the Airbnb obvious option, flipping antiques (you have the eye and the desire for your own roadshow), any culinary skills or even offering lodging on niche sites such as Theatre Digs, could see you making more of your living space.

Looking to move? You can make a big one. To another town, area, country even. It’s about where is right for you. That home will be different to others on its street or if it is an apartment, to the others in the building. Location, location, location. Jupiter in here will usually give you more bang for your buck even if you are renting. Or you end up in a better area than you thought you could afford. Possibly simply due to the fact the place is quirky and wouldn’t appeal to less creative souls. But its so right for you.

Others could extend, renovate or redecorate their present home. The new Moon in here on the 19th is your day to begin this process. Or else commit fully to the moving process. If your present roots don’t allow for more growth, it honestly is time to pull them up and transplant them where they can expand.

There’s so many Jupiter resources available for you to come home to right on this site to mark Jupiter’s grand entrance into Taurus. These include your Jupiter in Taurus forecast for your sign. And your Jupiter Juice Shot Tarot Forecast. Keep revisiting as needed as they will remain active on here for the entire Jupiter in Taurus cycle.

Now the Sun is in your 5th enter a month of intense and magical passion and attraction. Yes, that also includes lucky breaks in your property search if that is going on. But also this is your time to shine, to love who you are with, what you do and where you live too. Many of you will pour your creativity and also any extra money you have into enhancing your home or lifestyle. No half measures and nothing Mehhhhhh, Aquarius. That includes the place you call yours. Make it your own.

In a nutshell: Home, roots, lifestyle, traditions. Where you hang your hat and what feels right for you. Jupiter and ruler Uranus hand you the keys to say: There’s no place like home. Get ready for a moving experience.

Explore that vision of what the future could hold

Ideas take you further

Start that conversation

Do check your chart for factors at 14-15 degrees of your sign. The lunar eclipse in your 9th (5th) should really only be treated with caution if 1) you are travelling on this day. And 2) if you have Pisces factors at the 14-15o orb. This is a penumbral lunar eclipse. So, unlike a total lunar eclipse, the Moon only passes through part of the Earth’s shadow. This causes a subtle dimming of the Moon’s surface rather than the ‘Blood on the Moon’ effect we associate with a total lunar eclipse.

For most Pisces, this eclipse offers mild, dreamy escapism. The opportunity to imagine a bigger vision for yourself. And to plan how to get there. You may be an armchair traveller under it. But at the same time you would be planning on how you could experience something similar for yourself for real.

However, if you are heading off on a long distance journey, taking an important exam, involved in a legal matter, thinking of making a big purchase and/or have those 14-15 factors, do use extra caution now. There is something you do not know or are unaware of. It’s a little like a Mercury retro – which incidentally ends in Mercury’s ruling 3rd on the 15th. The fact this eclipse takes place while Mercury is backwards tells you to be prepared. For plans to change in particular or new information to come to light. The shadow free tea to dish can be found in your Full Moon in Scorpio Moonscope.

Let’s get loud now ancient ruler Jupiter has news, solutions and opportunities for you. Right on your doorstep. With what’s familiar. Ideas, writing, studies, speaking, selling, photography, visual communication, that thesis or screenplay, your devices and technology, short trips and the internet.

Round round get-around. You, what you have to say, that spark of creative genius (more on that factor in a moment) – all take you further than you could ever have dreamed of now Jupiter joins game-changing Uranus in your 3rd from the 16th.

Yes, Jupiter revisits this area of your chart every 12 years. But what makes this go-around different is the presence of Uranus at the same time this occurs. This has never happened before in your lifetime. And won’t again as by the time Jupiter returns, Uranus will have moved on. Big ideas and conversations dominate. One you start and/or bring to a conclusion around the time of the new Moon in your 3rd on the 19th will prove to be of particular opportunity creating significance.

Expect a deluge of calls, messages, likes, business to boom, people to say yes or want what you are selling, finding new ways to say it, new platforms, a bigger audience or a deep dive into a key subject which fascinates you. The key with Jupiter in here is to get talking any way you can.

Romance needs a mental turn-on. Boring people, one-sided conversations and closed minds – so no with this Jupiter. Your mind is open, you’re greedy for more engagement and also to be challenged by different points of view. Lucky for you, you’ll attract the right people and opportunities to give you this.

There’s so many Jupiter resources available for you right here to mark Jupiter’s grand entrance into Taurus. These include your Jupiter in Taurus forecast for your sign. And your Jupiter Juice Shot Tarot Forecast. Don’t forget to add them to your resources this Jupiter cycle!

Venus in your glow-up 5th is sweetly attentive and sensitive to your every need (7th). This merely enhances the Jupiter effect of being able to say exactly the right thing. This brings your intuitively sensual side to the surface. You can anticipate that lovers need before they even know they want it. And when you serve it, it is with panache, sensuality and style. Under this transit this is reciprocated in return. Who spoils who? It doesn’t matter. The gift is in giving and receiving pleasure equally.

This is a Venus transit of attraction. Be it romance, lucky breaks or pleasurably intense experiences. It also hands you heightened creativity to add to your palette of hedonism. All the world loves a lover. And also loves an artist. You’re an enticing combo of both right now, Pisces. Do make the most of it.

Pluto turned retroactive in your 12th on May Day. The thing to bear in mind with Pluto is that it gets more potent when retrograde. In other words, no planet does it better backwards. This is your house of deep insights and inner knowing. Chances are you DO know what’s coming next now as the Sun enters your 4th on the 21st. As it does it will ignite the power of Pluto. Meanwhile Mars which is now in your 6th, opposes Pluto.

Expect a sudden certainty about something or an intense re-framing of a situation to take place. The clarity is searing and freeing both at the same time. And could simply give you an unfair advantage as knowing what’s going to happen means you are already one step ahead. The ability to rework the building blocks of your life or start that game changing conversation based on what you now know, means you already know when opportunity is going to knock, Pisces.

In a nutshell: Jupiter’s move into your 3rd is all about what you have to say, share or send out. The written word, studies, writing, TikTok, social media, business and getting around. One chain of communication that begins this month could take you further than you image. Get talking, Pisces.
