Week of May 20
Gemini season begins at 8:59 AM on May 20 — The mood is fun, friendly, and curious!
Call a bestie, treat yourself to an afternoon at the library, or park yourself at the local pub to gab, and gossip your heart out. The mood is busy, snappy, things are happening. You might learn some new slang. You might feel compelled to buy two of everything: do you due diligence and search out BOGOs instead of impulse buying, especially during the Full Moon in impetuous, free-for-all Sagittarius!
Sun in Gemini trine Pluto in Aquarius at 11:14 AM on May 22 — Now we’re cooking with gas!
Things that were great could become AWESOME. Things that sucked could lose their importance or their grasp on your attention. Pluto is the bulldozer of the zodiac and this week the sun is riding it like it’s a rodeo. Passionate encounters could take place. A change that previously felt hard to make could now come quite easily. Feelings of power, focus, and strength are in the atmosphere.
Planetary Initiations: Jupiter and Saturn
Venus conjunct Jupiter in Taurus at 4:29 AM on May 23 — Cashmere cuddles!
What a sweet cosmic connection! Venus is the planet of love and money, Jupiter is the planet of plenty: their meeting signals the beginning of a new cycle in our lives concerning wealth and romance! This meeting takes place in luxurious earth sign Taurus, we could be spoiled with brand-name, or skillfully handmade, gifts. Maybe a negotiation will reach a happy win-win. A tranquil energy could flow in romantic partnerships. We might eat something exceptionally delicious. Keyword combinations now are bigger, better, prettier, cuddlier, yummier… you get the idea!
Venus sextile Neptune in Pisces at 6:50 AM on May 23 — A total dreamboat enters the scene?!
You could fall head over heels in love! If you’re already attached, this could be a very dreamy moment for you and your partner. If you’re looking for love, you could meet someone absolutely swoon worthy! All the mushy romantic things we love (messages of devotion, flowers, you name it) glitter under this alignment.
This is also a fabulous time for making art, to revamp your wardrobe, or generally to have a good time. The mood is relaxed, loving, and dreamy.
Full moon in Sagittarius at 9:53 AM on May 23 — Shoot your shot, get it while it’s hot!
The full moon in Sagittarius has a very “now or never” energy about it, but you don’t have to get swept up in this lunation’s hype. Yes, this could be a critical turning point where it’s time to make a decision. But “I need more to time to think about things” is a valid judgement, too.
A feeling of FOMO could be in the atmosphere. You might attend a hot party or be let in on a juicy conversation, but life will go on even if you don’t show up to every event you’re invited to. All that said, if you’re ready to make a big move, the full moon in fiery Sag could help you hit your bullseye.
Venus enters Gemini at 4:20 PM on May 23 — The celestial equivalent of the winky face emoji!
Venus in Gemini is a lovely time to get a manicure (Gemini rules the hands), pen a love letter, or wave at a crush. The mood is fun and flirty. There’s an easy going atmosphere around connection. The mind is especially sexy right now.
Financially, some interesting discussions could be taking place, and again, it’s the mind and intellectual skill which could be valued most at this time, so highlight your ability to communicate, or your wealth of information on a topic, in your negotiations.
Astrological Writing Superstitions
Jupiter in Taurus sextile Neptune in Pisces at 5:44 PM on May 23 — Dreams do come true!?
The big picture comes into focus, and the mood is optimistic and flexible as new possibilities are explored. This could be a very productive time for communication and brainstorming. A hope could manifest into reality thanks to the buzz that was created by people coming together.
The sea, or travel by ship, could come up for conversation. Religion and philosophy could be hot topics. You could come across an inspiring and extensive cocktail (or mocktail) menu.
Venus in Gemini trine Pluto in Aquarius at 7:16 AM on May 25 — Passionate embraces?!
Things could get hot and heavy in our love lives. A powerful union could form! Fantasies could be explored. Very deep discussions could take place, lasting hours into the night! Memorable pillow talk could take place. Even if you are not looking for love, the heart to hearts you have at this time could be transformative for yourself and your friendships. Incredible artwork could be created at this time.
Jupiter enters Gemini at 7:15 PM on May 25 — I love this transit! So fun and social!
Think back to June 11, 2012 to June 25, 2013: that’s the last time Jupiter was in Gemini! Your social circle could get much more interesting, and some exciting new local spots could open up. You might join an astrology circle that delights you each week, or find place that hosts gatherings for some other hobby you love. Big ideas are shared, and people’s curiosity could lead to exciting discoveries and creative innovations at this time. Important news about language, modes of short distance travel, telecommunications or social media could be buzzed about in the coming months. Gossip columns could make a comeback and publications that focus on insider tips could be very hot this year. Information is as valuable as ever as Jupiter moves through Gemini.
