At the same time, you might be leaving smoke trails behind you on the moving walkways of the airports of the world. As Mars hits an amplified conjunction to the North Node on the 19th, your frequent flier activity speeds up, and perhaps reaches a fever pitch. Maybe all the activity at work these days is resulting in an intensity of travel, or maybe your engagement with the international arena hits a critical high note without you having to leave your home. This is not only a burst of activity, but also an opportunity for you to lean into potential disagreements that may arise, and to learn from the school of conflict.

Jupiter enters Gemini on the 25th, setting you up for a year of teach-ins, conventions, heady online discourse, and a generally more active social calendar. You might be mingling with disparate groups you belong to (and gaining lots of inspiration from this cross-pollination), or perhaps attending more conferences where cool ideas are being shared. The temptation to binge on all the variety on offer to you will be strong, and it’ll be easy to lose the thread a little as you chase the intellectual thrill of “learning and experiencing it all.” In the meantime, allow the initial buzz to wake up your brain cells and encourage more sharing. There are no doubt more people out there who could benefit from your brilliance.

Virgo Rising

May is set to bring you various kinds of peak experiences. Whether they’re of the travel variety or not, this could easily become one of your favorite months of the year to explore beyond the zone of what you’re already familiar with. Trips to faraway places are poised to delight you, and learning pursuits of all kinds will trigger all the right dopamine buttons. You might be experiencing a blossoming, so to speak, regarding your own philosophical and spiritual orientation toward the world—a fructification of thought and belief, or maybe enjoying the rewards of all those hours you’ve spent hitting the books lately. If you’re lucky enough to be able to get away this month, get your fill of desserts, music, and sensory experiences of all kinds. It’s one thing to research the place you’re visiting, and yet another to drink in the embodied sensations of a place.

Even if you’re homebound, your palette will be craving the flavors and artistic influences of foreign cultures, so why not use that as an excuse to patronize more international restaurants, or mow through a lineup of foreign films in your streaming queue?

If you’ve been weighing a relocation, it’s very possible that May’s astrology will greenlight your plans. Between a way-opening Jupiter-Sun conjunction on the 18th and a Venus-Jupiter conjunction on the 23rd (which just so happens to coincide with a full moon in your fourth house of home), you might be celebrating both the completion of milestones and the making of new possibilities.

On the 25th, Jupiter enters Gemini for the next year, stimulating all kinds of professional growth for you along the way. You may be juggling various roles and responsibilities in this next leg of your journey, or attempting to fuse several threads together into a multimedia work of brilliance. Although you’ll likely be excited by all the advancement, it’ll also be an interesting challenge to keep all the plates in the air, or manage all those moving pieces. If there’s anyone who can pull it off, though, it’s probably you.

Libra Rising

Did tax season leave you with an unexpectedly plump check to help subsidize your spring travels? Are resources flowing your way in the form of generous benefactors, bull markets, and the various forms of tangible and emotional assistance that make up your support network? Regardless of the shape your blessings take this May, consider that some forms of abundance can only reach you when the proverbial stuff hits the fan. Having help available to you when you need it is its own form of wealth, and having your own giving energy reciprocated is more satisfying than never having given at all.

There could definitely be some financial wins coming your way this month (think: taxes, debts, investments, grants, inheritances, mortgages, insurance, money you’re owed, or even a partner’s income becoming the tide that lifts your boat), but barring some sort of spectacular windfall, you’ll probably gain a lot more sustenance from noticing the everyday forms of generosity people are extending your way—the kind you could easily take for granted. Still, look for pleasant surprises, and even changes to your material circumstances, that could arrive around the 18th. On the 23rd, you may also feel like celebrating some recent wins, or maybe spreading the good vibes by dropping some honey into someone else’s pot.
