Weekly Horoscope: May 18 – May 24, 2020

Hoorah for Gemini season! On Thursday, the sun moves into Gemini—the exact same day Venus (planet of love) angles toward Neptune (planet of illusions). This communicative energy can make it easier to connect and interact online or off. Even so, if something seems too good to be true, it probably is. Trust your instincts.

Friday’s new moon in Gemini can be an opportunity to initiate a new project or close a deal. Even so, with three key planets now retrograde (Venus, Saturn, and Jupiter), there’s potential for unexpected changes to plans, so it would be wise to take things one step at a time.

Also on Friday, Mercury (planet of communication) links with Venus, the sun trines Saturn, and lively Mercury squares Neptune on Friday. All in all, there could be issues with getting a message across unless the facts are made abundantly clear.

On Sunday, Mars (planet of aggression) forges a positive angle with Uranus (planet of change), which can encourage a need to break free from too many restrictions and do something a little more exciting than usual.

How the Planets Will Affect Your Zodiac Sign This Week

Aries   

The sun is highlighting your social zones, Aries. But thanks to all the retrograde action in the sky right now, it’s not the time to make the big moves you’re so keen on. Slow down and get your priorities straight. The new moon lights up your communication skills on Friday. It’s a good time to share some thoughts.

Taurus 

As the sun enters Gemini this week, leaving Taurus, your money is about to become your focus. And as Venus retrograde also lights up this zone, try to make sure you’re not spending egregious amounts of money on things you don’t need. The new moon also emphasizes this zone—a fresh start is upon you.
