May 2025 Astrology

HELLO MAY! 🌷🌸🌼🌿

May is a breath of fresh air compared to the previous months. No eclipses, no retrogrades, no major challenging aspects. Very fitting for Taurus season, since Taurus is all about harmony, stability and enjoying life's simple pleasures.

The dominant element this month is Fire. Things are in motion. During the first half of the month, Earth makes a comeback after many months of absence. Will things finally begin to materialise? That is, if we are ready for unexpected changes, because all personal planets will be joining Uranus in Taurus at some point during May (and June).

While Taurus, the fixed earth sign, is the most difficult to rouse, Uranus will make sure the earth shakes and takes new form. The manner in which the changes take place might not be what we were envisioning, but they're the ones we are ready to handle. The only constant is change and the purpose of Uranus is awakening. You are ready to take it to the next level and to embrace the new.

Collectively, we're bridging the gap between heaven and earth even more, as the intermediates between Gaia (Earth-Taurus) and Uranus (Sky). A new world is being born and the first concrete signs are now visible.

The major event this month is Saturn entering Aries. As with all the other major transits this year, Saturn is only dipping its toes into Aries until 1 September, before retrograding back into Pisces. Again, we get a taste of the next 2.5 years. This transit also ushers in the Saturn returns of those born in 1996-1998 and 1967-1969.

Conjunct Neptune the first few months, our path/mission isn't clear, our sense of identity might dissolve only to be carefully sculpted as a new, more anchored version of ourselves that is truly aligned with our authenticity and unique sense of self (Aries). After the huge, emotional, Piscean cleanse of January and February, followed by the unstable and retrospective energy of March-April, we are given a new foundation on which to rebuild.

It's time we became our own leaders, personal authorities and sovereign beings who are ready to overcome any fear or challenge that is put in our way. You're building yourself, steadily and patiently, into the best version of yourself, into the warrior, protector and pioneer you came here to be. The house in your natal chart where you have Aries shows in which area of life all of this is taking place.

Have a blessed May,

Alexandra 💚
