  April 2023 | June 2023   The Month in Brief | Year Ahead in 2012

Tue May 1: May Day

May Day, or Beltane as the Irish call it, has always been a day of celebration. You can definitely be the King or Queen of the May, as the waxing Moon dances in your house of friends, hopes and wishes, boosting your personal magnetism and stimulating passionate Mars, your life-ruler. It's a rip-roaring day for a celebratory bonfire, so let your passions roll! Read more on May Day. Fortunate colors are scarlet and green. Lucky numbers are 1 and 5.

Wed May 2: Wicked Smile

As long as you don't play too many games today you can twist other people round your little finger. That's your style, Scorpio. You have a wicked smile on your face and several trump cards hidden well out of sight, but you do have to tread warily or close companions may end up feeling controlled or used. This can see some rather sharp words. Concentrate of improving your finances, for there are some obstacles in your way. Beneficial colors are copper and lime. Lucky numbers are 3 and 24.

Thu May 3: Channel That Energy

Too much of nothing makes a man feel ill at ease. Give yourself permission to go off and do what you want to do for yourself. You won't manage it entirely, of course, but for some of the day take time out for reflection. You'll be surprised in the quiet moments how inspiration suddenly hits you about things that seemed to have no answer. Channel that energy in constructive directions and you'll go far. Positive colors are raw hide and glossy brown. Lucky numbers are 5 and 69.

Fri May 4: Be Firm

Putting down limits may not be easy, but don't let a tug on your heart strings lead you down a road that turns out to be a blind alley. You could be offering help to people who are just taking advantage of you. Make sure you are not being a martyr to save others. A family member or loved one may be over-inclined to lean on you during this time. Be firm and make them stand on their own two feet. Auspicious colors are snow white and bone. Lucky numbers are 6 and 15.

Sat May 5: Full Moon In Scorpio

You are especially sensitive today, Scorpio, as there is a Full Moon in your sign. Don't leap to instant decisions about a close relationship, since your judgement may be off. Try to keep a balanced view. Examine the situation in great detail, but don't make judgements before you have all the information at your fingertips. When you find the answers, make sure you don't push them too forcefully at others, especially partners. Auspicious colors are rich crimson and glittering obsidian. Lucky numbers are 1 and 7.

Sun May 6: Unpredictable Lovelife

This is a good time to get involved in team situations. As Mars gathers speed after a lengthy retro phase, your confidence and enthusiasm inspires everyone. Enjoy your circle of friends and acquaintances, but don't lose your temper. Your lovelife is unpredictable and highly changeable. New romantic affairs are switch-on/switch-off, though exciting. Nothing feels secure or long-lasting, but it certainly won't be boring. Dramatic colors are purple and musk. Lucky numbers are 8 and 11.

Mon May 7: On The Move

With Mars on the move, you can extract yourself from the quagmire. Lift your life out of the rut and get away from routines. Travel is unusually attractive, so start planning. Just watch you do not cram too much into your schedule. You can be a touch strong in your opinions, since you feel rather evangelical. Luckily your truthful and straightforward approach should catch general enthusiasm. Communicative colors are sapphire and ivy. Lucky numbers are 14 and 6.

Tue May 8: More Laid Back

The Moon is in your house of personal finances, so get your money in order and the budget balanced. Emotional security will come from material security, but life's little luxuries do so appeal... Are you too attached to the good life? Today's aspects can make you a touch possessive, so you are forced to look more laid back than you feel. Auspicious colors are pale peach and silvery green. Lucky numbers are 17 and 25.

Wed May 9: Flying Solo?

Flying solo makes you feel exposed, so you need companionship. Your diplomatic skills and way of shining your attention on others keeps you much appreciated. Lawyers and legal matters, debates, contract negotiations, partnership or other alliances, and joint ventures of any kind occupy your mind, but togetherness is the key to your happiness. Resourceful colors are nutmeg and tangerine. Lucky numbers are 11 and 15.

Thu May 10: Be True To Yourself

Any sort of group exercise would suit you now, Scorp, as you cruise through good feelings and some bounce around the neighborhood. But it's important not to be pushed around. If you compromise for the sake of fitting in, you'll get cross because you've not been true to yourself. Expressing your feelings is less of a problem than usual. Watch you're not speaking for the effect on others, rather than the actual content. Communicative colors are blue sapphire and red coral. Lucky numbers are 3 and 7.

Fri May 11: Strong Feelings Run Deep

You have strong feelings, which you keep firmly to yourself. Even those who know you intimately find it difficult to know quite what runs below the surface. Fortunately one old resentment has finally been put to rest. Even if you are on your own for a little while, don't let it bother you. You need to avoid being overwhelmed by the outside world. Calm down and get away from any hassle and aggravation. Favorable colors are magnolia and red wine. Lucky numbers are 2 and 7.

Sat May 12: Renewed Energy

There is a renewed sense of energy after the recent delays you have been experiencing. Unusually vocal, you'll be inclined to shout your opinions from the rooftops. Nothing will distract you from the essentials and you will cope admirably with practical situations. It may not be particularly passionate or very exciting, but you will be pleased with what you have accomplished. Practical colors are bottle green and lemon. Lucky numbers are 8 and 11.

Sun May 13: Love Is In The Air

Mars is well-aspected today under a thrilling Pisces Moon, and there are some other excellent cosmic factors at work, so it should be just the ideal Mothers Day! Be sure to contact your mother, especially if she is a long way away. Good news is in the wind regarding partnership matters, where it's time to take matters to a new level. Love is in the air. Friends and colleagues will be on your side too. Don't forget your mother. More on Mothers Day. Beneficial colors are pastel tones and butterscotch. Lucky numbers are 5 and 7.

Mon May 14: Curious To Learn

Your mind is more active than usual, so you are curious to learn more about almost everything. Your opinions sound loud and clear, so anyone who holds a different view may have a disagreement on their hands. Tread softly and use more strategy; then you'll get everyone in line faster. The only trouble under the Pisces Moon may be that your feelings are running deep and intense as well. Fortunate colors are carnelian and chrysoprase. Lucky numbers are 3 and 5.

Tue May 15: Venus Retrograde

As Venus backflips in your eighth house, the real truth about joint income and social status acquired through marriage or business partnership is likely to surface. It can mean the end of one way of being (single, perhaps?) or the beginning of a new life... even positive events can be stressful and set off a series of adjustments. It's more intense in social contacts, romance and sexual encounters, particularly the psychological motivations and behavior patterns involved. But once Venus turns direct in June, you are sure to reap the rewards of your efforts. Good things come to those who wait! Beneficial colors are purple sage and rosy quartz. Lucky numbers are 8 and 11.

Wed May 16: Polish Your Halo

Your harmonious way of expressing yourself and desire to keep the peace does wonders for your popularity. You are able to be skillfully diplomatic, but this is a rather self-sacrificing kind of day. Put aside your own need for indulgence to make sure that everyone else is getting what they want. Just polish your halo and console yourself with the thought that you will get your due reward in a few days. Beneficial colors are aquamarine and white. Lucky numbers are 8 and 22.

Thu May 17: On and Off

Anyone who tries to push you around is going to be told exactly what you think of them. This is very much a time to stand up for yourself; live life to the full. Who cares about other people's reactions? Your love life is unpredictable and highly changeable. Romance is on and off, but very exciting. Nothing is very secure, but it certainly won't be boring. Favorable colors are deep green and sapphire blue. Lucky numbers are 24 and 76.

Fri May 18: Express How You Feel

You need the solid, reassuring support of people who care about you. Look for supportive buddies, the ones you can trust, who have been there for you in the past. There may be some emotional confusion or misunderstandings at home now. You are beginning to look at one situation and feel rather let down. You may be disillusioned as you realize the reality of what is being said or done. Try to find the courage to express how you feel. Beneficial colors are amethyst and warm brown. Lucky numbers are 2 and 56.

Sat May 19: Intimate Connections

If life feels like a struggle for the next few weeks, just remember that perseverance will pay off. You will be looking for deeper answers than usual, and more passionate connections. You need intense, intimate connections in your life with a partner who is able to match your emotional depth and yearnings. You feel unusually confident and optimistic about your future. Double check that your schemes are realistic. Auspicious colors are sea green and ebony. Lucky numbers are 6 and 70.

Sun May 20: New Moon Solar Eclipse

Your feelings are more intense than usual under the New Moon, because it's a powerful solar eclipse. They are telling you what you need to know about an intimate partnership. If you can lay your cards on the table in private, you'll get a better insight into how to deal with similar situations in the future. What you need at work is a good deal more freedom to express yourself and utilize your talents. If you no longer wish to fulfill other people's expectations, following orders is not as easy as it once was. Fortunate colors are platinum and burgundy. Lucky numbers are 8 and 11.

Mon May 21: Exciting Possibilities

New possibilities are on the horizon, Scorpio. New ideas allow you to do things you haven't been able to do before. It's an exciting time. You are at the point of wanting to transform your personal security, and build your financial situation into something more solid. Nothing will happen quickly but you can slowly put new systems into place. There may be pressure, but if you use your ingenuity you'll come out ahead. Favorable colors are silvery grey and teal blue. Lucky numbers are 10 and 62.

Tue May 22: Joie De Vivre

You can bounce into situations brimming with confidence and sheer joie de vivre. Just be careful you don't pitch your expectations too high -- make sure that you are not being unrealistic. It's the right time for promoting your strongly held beliefs. Riding into battle waving the banner of your pet cause might well be the key under current aspects! Positive colors are dusky pink and jade. Lucky numbers are 8 and 62.

Wed May 23: Freedom

Wide-open spaces are a must, dear Scorpio, since you don't appreciate being fenced in. You need the freedom to speak openly under the Cancer Moon and move around as it suits you. If you aren't able to travel literally, you can travel in your mind. Get out the holiday brochures, read books with an exotic flavor, do anything that takes your mind off whatever is expected of you and boringly routine. And try to stretch yourself in at least one new activity during each day. Fortunate colors are smoky quartz and amber. Lucky numbers are 16 and 52.

Thu May 24: Lofty Subjects

You are attracted now to loftier subjects such as philosophy or religion which look at society in a much broader kind of way. You have a real knack for putting others at their ease and your happy optimism makes you very popular. Just be aware that new friends can be of the fair-weather variety and may not last through stickier times. So keep a firm grip on old friends whose loyalty is tried and tested. They may not be so vibrant but they will always be there. Auspicious colors are emerald green and sapphire blue. Lucky numbers are 1 and 39.

Fri May 25: Life In Reverse

You may feel life is slower and practically in reverse for a day or so. If you can resign yourself to this without becoming discouraged, then it will pass. Whenever you feel hemmed in, things get irritable. But don't say too much in the heat of the moment. Spend time thinking seriously about education, philosophical and even spiritual matters. Life may test out your old opinions by setting up arguments for you. Beneficial colors are pineapple and kiwifruit. Lucky numbers are 6 and 39.

Sat May 26: The More You Give

The Moon is nudging you into being more protective of those around you. The more you give, the more others will think you are absolutely marvellous. If you feel concerned about money then blame Pluto. It isn't a disaster, it just makes you think you're not doing well. Whereas in fact, if you just push harder and dig in your heels, you could turn your situation around very nicely thank you. Favorable colors are ochre and cornflower blue. Lucky numbers are 68 and 40.

Sun May 27: Tempers Fray

Fuses fly and tempers fray. There is not much you can do to prevent it, but just take it in your stride. Loved ones may be stimulating, lively but at times downright unco-operative. Rebelliousness is in the air all round. You must let out your creative streak to do whatever is least conventional and most you. Fortunate colors are royal purple and burnished gold. Lucky numbers are 6 and 77.

Mon May 28: Bright Side

More sensitive to the subtler aspects of the world than usual, everything feels dreamy and romantic. When you are with other people you pick up on their problems without even having to ask. Try to look on the bright side, as you tend to focus on the difficulties. It's a habit, so break it! Especially in dealing with Important People. You will cope well today with situations that are out of the ordinary, but may just make normal situations more difficult than they need to be. Auspicious colors are ginger and avocado. Lucky numbers are 78 and 12.

Tue May 29: To The Point

In discussions you will get straight to the heart of the matter and be candid to the point of bluntness. Your brutal honesty could be unnerving to more sensitive, thin-skinned friends. Don't try to force others into accepting your viewpoint. You cannot quite make up your mind what you want, or what your commitments should be. Remember that this is only a temporary period, so step back until your head clears. Fortunate colors are violet and burgundy. Lucky numbers are 19 and 61.

Wed May 30: Secretive Mood

A secretive mood settles around you for the next few days and everyone seems preoccupied. Friends are tied up in what they're doing, but you also want to just disappear into your own space to think things through. You don't feel like company at the moment and emotionally you want to protect yourself and think about personal matters. Beneficial colors are onyx and turquoise. Lucky numbers are 15 and 34.

Thu May 31: Expansive Mood

A very expansive mood comes your way, so make sure you act sensibly. If you don't take care you could find that you over-spend or go off in different directions at the same time. Here is the chance to develop your true potential, to make yourself into something better than perhaps you have been up till now. Confidential matters, both financial and emotional, occupy your mind in weeks ahead. Favorable colors are sienna and lemon. Lucky numbers are 67 and 7.
