A Very Healing New Moon

Your horoscope for the week of May 5 to May 11 is pulling you toward positive improvements and laying down the groundwork for your future. You may be putting in extra hours or embracing delayed gratification, but it’s all in the name of building something beautiful for the long haul.

With Taurus season underway, you’re in the process of setting goals and nourishing them with love, patience, and consistent care. And as the sun forms a sextile with Saturn in Pisces on May 7, it will allow you to be just as realistic as you are idealistic about your dreams. Now’s the time to slow down, take stock of what needs to be done, and have faith that it will get done. Rome wasn’t built in a day and Saturn—planet of longterm growth—is well aware of that.

May 7 is also the day a new moon in Taurus rises at 18 degrees, allowing you to set an intention to guide you forward. Because Venus is also in Taurus, this lunation is marked by abundance and positivity, encouraging you to simply stop and smell the roses. Taurus loves all the sweet things in life. What’s the point of life if you aren’t present enough to enjoy it? Not only that, but this new moon will also join forces with Jupiter—planet of extravagance and larger-than-life pursuits—as well as Uranus—planet of progress and innovation—which will bring a burst of momentum and motivation to your plans. You’ll watch the seeds you plant now grow over the course of the next six months. All you need to do is fulfill your end of the bargain and get to work.

The moon will be in chatty and adaptable Gemini by May 8, immediately forming a trine with transformative Pluto. This will allow you to get curious about your ideas and continue to probe them for deeper insights. Conversations could take a fascinating turn as you plumb the depths of your innermost thoughts.
