Monthly Horoscope
May 2005
by Mary Stone
Aries (21 March – 19 April)
High minded ideas need a compassionate soul to make dreams come true and that describes you perfectly as May begins. You want to instigate change and the best way to achieve this is to make sure you’re improving things for the many and not simply for your own gain. Altruism has never suited you better so make the most of it.
Taurus (20 April - 20th May)
You’re charming and delightful company in May, so whatever you want to achieve this month, whether it’s promotion or love you seek, go for it now. An impulsive urge to take action results in sparks flying and passionate encounters mid month and you may find yourself entangled in strong emotions that sweep you off your feet.
Gemini (21 May -21 June)
May begins with you feeling unsure about the benefits of a current situation. Neither exaggerating them nor playing them down will help you reach a balanced view of things. By mid month Venus in your sign will give you the confidence to iron out any remaining issues. In fact you will be feeling quite flirtatious and in the mood for serious fun.
Cancer (22 June - 22 July)
Your efforts at work lately will not have gone unnoticed, so this is a good time to have a chat with the powers that be about a pay rise or improving your situation somehow. You’re due a bit of time off, so why not book a holiday abroad? Adventure holidays may not normally be your thing, but a break that involves activities, other than lying on the beach, could suddenly appeal.
Leo (23 July - 22 August)
Charm gets you everywhere, but don’t squander it on people without any clout. Be shameless and schmooze your way to the top! An influential person might just be prepared to help you realise your ambitions. This is also a great time to meet up with friends and plan a night together because your sociable and friendly way will rub off on others.
Virgo (23 August - 22 September)
Keep a sharp eye on your finances as May begins and don’t allow your normally shrewd manner slip when it comes to your hard earned cash. A deal that appears too good to be true is probably just that. However, things look better mid month when your money situation takes a positive turn and you could find yourself with extra money.
Libra (23 September - 22 October)
You feel frustrated at having people try and steal your thunder in May. But before you send them packing, take a moment to listen to what they’re saying to you. What you perceive as interference and jealousy might actually be someone trying to give you some good advice. Your luck improves as the month progresses so make the most of it.
Scorpio (23 October - 21 November)
You’re captivated by the attentions of someone very special now and it seems that nothing can get in the way of romance. The chemistry between you two won’t go unnoticed, but you just don’t care if people are shocked by your sudden open passion. The wining and dining might make a bit of a dent in your pocket, but so what?
Sagittarius (22 November - 21 December)
You’re switched on and alert as May begins with bright ideas and plans flowing from your mind. It’s a great time to organise a get together with like minded individuals – you’ll have all the World’s problems fixed in no time at all! By mid May your love life is looking good with single Sagittarians hooking up and attached centaurs doting on one another.
Capricorn (22 December - 16 January)
You’re on fire in May, racing around like there’s no tomorrow – slow down! Rushing about won’t make things happen any quicker, so why give yourself grief by trying to force things to move at your new fast pace? You’ll get a fantastic amount done this month but you’re high energy levels could leave you prone to carelessness and accidents.
Aquarius (20 Janurary - 18 February)
It’ll be easy to part you with your cash this month as you’re gripped with the urge to impulse buy. But before you fritter away your dough think twice about why you want these new things. Perhaps you need to fill up your spare time with more fulfilling activities, that way you won’t feel the need to treat yourself to things you don’t really want.
Pisces (19 February - 20 March)
You’re behaviour could be described as quite rough and ready this month, which is quite unusual for you. People might be shocked by your sudden outbursts, or radical new ideas never expressed before. Others won’t like you rocking the boat, but that’s tough, because you’ve got the will and energy to make positive, albeit unpopular, changes.
