Tuesday, May 20: Sun sextile Saturn (29° Taurus–Pisces)
On the final day of Taurus Season, the Sun’s sextile to Saturn in Pisces is a stabilizing moment. With both planets at 29° (the anaretic degree) there’s a sense of urgency… but the frequencies of Taurus and Pisces move with trust, rhythm, and purpose. This aspect blends structure with softness, reminding you that long-term vision doesn’t require a white-knuckle grip. If you've been building something—emotionally, creatively, professionally—this is the moment to recommit. The Sun shines a light on what’s possible, and Saturn shows you the work it’ll take to get there. You don’t have to have it all figured out, but you do need to believe in what you’re doing.
Tuesday, May 20: Sun enters Gemini
Gemini season begins! After the slow bloom of Taurus season, the vibe now turns social, cerebral, and insatiably curious. Gemini is ruled by Mercury (the messenger), which churns the air with questions, texts, invites, gossip, and ideas. This season is about connection over conclusion, so don’t be afraid to say yes before you have it all figured out. After all, Gemini thrives on trial and error.

Thursday, May 22: Venus trine Mars (16° Aries–Leo)
Venus in Aries and Mars in Leo form a glorious fire trine—it’s flirty, combustive, and ultra confidence (read: cocky?). In mythology, Venus and Mars were secret lovers, so whenever these planets link up, there’s attraction and action, charm and chase. And when they’re in sync (as they are right now), everything gets a little more exciting. This is a beautiful aspect for romantic chemistry, creative collaboration, and sexual momentum. Venus in Aries wants what it wants now; Mars in Leo wants to be seen and adored. Together, they’re bold, brave, and unapologetically into it. If you’ve been waiting for a green light—romantically, artistically, or socially—here you go, baby. Ask for what you want. Let desire lead.
Thursday, May 22: Sun sextile Neptune (1° Gemini–Aries)
This is a soft-focus lens on a fast-moving mind. The Sun in Gemini is analytical and chatty; Neptune in Aries is idealistic and experimental. Their harmonious sextile invites you to bridge logic and intuition, mind and spirit. This aspect doesn’t seek clarity—it generates curiosity. The questions you ask today may not get answers, but they’ll lead to something interesting. Keep your antennae up. Inspiration could come from a conversation, a dream, or something someone says in passing. Trust your gut, even if you can’t explain why.
Neptune in Aries: What It Means For You
It happened. Neptune just left Pisces and entered Aries for the first time since 1861. If that year rings a bell, it should—that’s when the American Civil War began.
Saturday, May 24: Sun trine Pluto (3° Gemini–Aquarius)
Over the weekend, the Sun in Gemini makes a trine to Pluto in Aquarius, and this is the moment when words carry weight. Pluto is about transformation—deep, irreversible change—and the Sun lights up where you’re being invited to step into a more empowered, more aligned version of yourself. Gemini tends to keep things light and breezy, but under this sky, things go deep. You may have an encounter that totally shifts your perspective, and—just like that—everything changes. Don’t underestimate the impact of this transit.
Saturday, May 24: Mercury conjunct Uranus (27° Taurus)
Later in the day, Mercury and Uranus meet in Taurus for a spark of genius. This conjunction is a mental breakthrough—a flash of insight that disrupts the status quo. Mercury rules communication and cognition; Uranus rules disruption and innovation. Together, they flip the script. Expect surprising news, unexpected conversations, or a sudden realization that changes your entire approach. This is not “business as usual” energy. It’s meant to shake you awake. If you’ve been stuck in old patterns, this—along with the Sun trine Pluto aspect earlier—may prompt a major eureka moment.
Saturday, May 24: Saturn enters Aries
And, then, it happens. Saturn, the planet of structure, responsibility, and long-term effort, enters Aries for the first time since 1996. Aries is the first sign of the zodiac, symbolizing the self, identity, and instinct. When Saturn enters Aries, we’re asked to take radical accountability for who we are and how we lead our lives. This is the beginning of a new 29-year cycle. If Saturn in Pisces—where it’s been drifting since 2023—was about faith, surrender, and soul work, Saturn in Aries is about action, boundaries, and bold moves. You may feel called to recommit to your goals—or to burn something down and start over.

Sunday, May 25: Mercury enters Gemini
Mercury is home! Mercury thrives in Gemini: it’s quick-thinking, sharp-tongued, fast-paced brilliance. Expect your brain to be buzzing, your inbox to be overflowing, and your schedule to be nonstop. Mercury in Gemini is great for writing, socializing, networking, and multitasking. But, of course, the dark side is information overload. Try to stay focused enough to do something with all that mental energy. After all, the last thing we need is realizing it’s 3AM and you’ve been doomscrolling on TikTok for 6-hours. Right? Right.
Sunday, May 25: Mercury sextile Saturn (0° Gemini–Aries)
Just a few hours after entering Gemini, Mercury forms a stabilizing sextile to Saturn in Aries and we end the week with some (much-needed!!!) clarity. It brings seriousness to ideas, boundaries to conversations, and long-term potential to short-term plans. Mercury in Gemini wants to talk; Saturn in Aries wants results. Together, they make a very productive team. If you need to make a big decision, have a serious talk, or pitch something important, your week will wrap up with cozy confidence. The vibe is focused, strategic, and direct—and after the past 7-days… lord knows we need it!
