Scorpio May 2023

You’ll be unraveling some of your personal fears and qualms this month on May 5, as the lunar eclipse unfolds in your sign. You’re no stranger to metamorphosis, but that doesn’t make change any less uncomfortable for you. However, the parts of yourself you’re being called to release have been weighing you down for quite some time, and as this eclipse takes place, you’ll be shedding any personal beliefs that have been rooted in scarcity or worry. Evolving is a good thing, and while continuing to stay the same might feel safe, it’s ultimately doing more harm than good. You don’t have to continue to identify with parts of yourself that no longer fit, those characteristics you’ve outgrown serve no purpose where you’re headed. 

Jupiter shifts into the security-oriented sign of Taurus on May 16, bringing developments and growth to your romantic relationships and partnerships. You’ve been doing plenty of personal work on yourself over the last several months, and now you’ll finally begin to see the benefits show up in your dynamics with the people around you. While you’re someone who typically likes to move with caution, this transit is inviting you to lean into the comfort and satisfaction that comes from opening yourself up to intimacy. The Taurus new moon on May 19 is the perfect time to plant some new, sustainable seeds in this area, marking the start of a long-term bond between you and another person – so feel free to indulge in your connections to the fullest now. 

The sun steps into the curious, chatty sign of Gemini on May 21, bringing conversations around shared resources and assets to the forefront. It’s a good time to consider your current spending habits and financial responsibilities – particularly those you’re sharing with another person. New and improved boundaries may need to be established now, but the light-hearted nature of this season ensures that these conversations won’t be too intense.
