Your Weekly Horoscope Indicates That You Will Meet Someone New (Or Fall In Love)
Things happen when you least expect them. Your horoscope for the week of May 12 to 18 suggests that you are preparing to cross a portal into the future. Unexpected changes and upheavals await you, so fasten your seat belt and enjoy this unpredictable ride.
Astrologers expected the Taurus season in 2024 to be a more chaotic and exciting experience than usual. Taurus, the fixed earth sign of stability and reliability, will unite with Uranus, the planet of innovation, rebellion, and social progress, on May 13. This could encourage you to adopt radical attitudes, to embody avant-garde ideas. You are not required to follow conventional standards or conform to the expectations of others, so why should you?
Fortunately, Venus, the planet of love and ruler of Taurus, will also form a harmonious aspect to Saturn on May 13, helping us approach these changes with more grace and with an eye toward long-term sustainability.
Taurus season will gain even more momentum on May 15, when Mercury, the talkative and intellectual communicator, enters this sensual and pragmatic sign. Mercury in Taurus may not be quick or rushed, but it encourages us to pause and think before we act. It also opens a window of communication based on truth, pragmatism, and the implementation of thoughtful plans.
However, a major drawback is that it can lead to stubborn thinking and extreme slowness in responding to emails and text messages. What about phone calls? You can forget about them when Mercury enters Gemini on June 3rd.
Conversations could take a dark and intense turn between now and May 17, when Mercury forms a square with Pluto, the detective and destroyer, revealing what’s behind the lies. Be careful not to get drawn into manipulative situations or come into contact with unreliable and dishonest people.
You can prepare for the tumult of Taurus season to impact your relationships and financial situation between now and May 18, when Venus, the planet of love and luxury, joins revolutionary Uranus. Instability will influence what you value, and some relationships may end while others begin. You might meet someone new and even feel love at first sight. However, it could also lead to unexpected expenses, financial losses, and gains.
This will all come to a magnificent climax on May 18, when the Sun in Taurus aligns with Jupiter, the planet of expansion and extravagance. This could lead to a major conclusion that will boost your self-confidence and give you a better grasp of your identity. You might feel excess in one area of your life, particularly in love and finances. Something is about to get overwhelming and intense.
Here’s what you can expect for your horoscope for the coming week, based on your Sun sign and/or rising sign:
