Aries
March 21 - April 19
May 2024 is about honing your abundance mindset so that by the time June rolls around, you have a crystal clear vision of your values and what you desire. Mars in your zone of financial security wants to help you put a rock solid financial plan in place. If you’re golden on that front, then use this time to figure out what you value most, as Mercury and healing comet Chiron also align in this zone of security, which will help you get clear on the details of your long term goals and where you see yourself down the line. Your sign is one of the most spiritual and creative within the zodiac, so thankfully the material world has never held you hostage. However May 2024 is giving you a chance to consider strengthening your connection to the earth element, through a solid connection with your money and your financial path that extends in front of you. Luckily, Venus, planet of both art, creativity and money, is in your conversation zone which means these questions can be pondered over lengthy brunches with your favourite people. This is about manifesting more artfully. The Full Moon on May 23rd will illuminate your career sector, and reflect back to you how far you’ve come over the past six months.

This is also the arena of emotional security, so notice whether your attachments are holding you hostage. This May, Venus is getting you ready for Jupiter’s arrival, asking you to transform your mindset when it comes to money. For some Tauruses out there, this could look like spiritual lessons in adopting a less-is-more approach, and for others, this could be your chance to aim high and structure your life so your future is financially nourished. A key date in the month for energetic shifts is May 14th, when Venus will pass over the point of the New Moon. This could also bring in the chance for romance, or help you get in closer contact with your own divine sensuality.
