Love, passion and commitment mix delightfully at the beginning of May, due to a Grand Earth Trine that especially benefits Taurus, Virgo and Capricorn. Everyone’s finances should get a boost, too. So there is lots to look forward to in the last month of Spring.
Flirting and drama
Communications, intellectual pursuits and travel get energized when Mercury, the Sun and Venus transit into Gemini on May 2, 20 and 24, respectively. Venus in Gemini heightens flirtatiousness, especially for Gemini, Libra and Aquarius. Romance gets a dose of passion and drama when Mars transits into Leo on May 9. Aries, Leo and Sagittarius will especially enjoy the heat between the sheets.
Retrogrades
Three planets turn retrograde this month, which means some backtracking is inevitable. Jupiter turns retrograde on May 9 (through September 6, 2008), which encourages some soul-searching about your future. Where do you see yourself a year, five years, even 10 years from now?
Mercury turns retrograde on May 26 (through June 19), which can cause all sorts of snafus involving communications and travel. Mixed messages and miscommunications are likely, so be sure to double-check your plans and paperwork. Neptune also turns retrograde on May 26 (through November 1), which favors introspection but can cast a pall of confusion over the clearest of intentions.
Saturn accelerates plans
Saturn turning direct on May 2 will help move projects forward, especially in the work arena. It will also help clarify your goals so you can make wiser decisions about upcoming choices.
