Dear friend,
You did it!
You survived the intensity of Mercury Retrograde & eclipse season that was April’s astrology!
I’m so proud of you!
I’m so excited for you, because May’s astrology is going to feel SO MUCH LIGHTER!
April’s astrology was emotional, healing, and heavy.
Yet you’ll feel relieved in May!
We’ll still be in the Mercury retrograde shadow period until May 13th, meaning that we could still have some miscommunication and technical hiccups. However, it won’t be as intense as the actual Mercury retrograde!
The star of the show in May is Jupiter entering Gemini on May 25th, which is going to shift how we receive abundance and opportunities!
Jupiter is a lucky planet, and has been in the sign of Taurus since May 16th 2023.
I spoke more about what blessings Jupiter in Gemini will bring you this next year based on your Rising and Sun sign in your 2024 horoscope.
Get excited for a month of passion with Mars in Aries, sensuality with Venus in Taurus, and bubbly fun with Gemini season starting on May 20th!

The week ahead
04.29.2024 — 05.05.2024
🪐 Monday April 29th
We could feel extra exhausted, sleepy, and confused on Monday.
Mars in Pisces is conjunct Neptune in Pisces, having us disoriented to start off this week. You could have had some mystical dreams, or sleep past your alarm.
Give yourself the extra rest that you need!
Venus also enters Taurus this day, and this is a lovely, luxurious, grounded energy!
Venus is what we value and how we show love and affection, it LOVES being in the sign of Taurus, as it’s her home sign.
This energy can make us seeking more homey pleasures that activate our senses.
We’re really valuing comfort, reliability, and luxury with Venus in Taurus.
You could feel very grounded in how we show up for others in relationships, may this be through friend check-ins, doing acts of service for others, or gifting a loved one some flowers.
Do some extra self care this day, may this be taking a bath, painting, or cooking your favourite meal.
🪐 Tuesday April 30th
Mars enters Aries on Tuesday, and boy, this transit packs a punch!
This honestly will feel INVIGORATING.
Mars in Aries is passionate, driven and impatient!
This is going to shift how we pursue in relationships, and how we collectively work.
If you feel like it’s been hard to get things done, well… it has.
This transit will last until June 9th, so really utilize this time!
If you felt like people were so wishy-washy when it comes to dating, this makes sense with Mars in Pisces. With Mars in Aries, this is a lovely time to date as people can be more forward & decisive!
Now, with Mars in Aries at zero degrees… you could push TOO HARD and burn out, so be sure to pace yourself this week.
It’s important to note, Venus in Taurus wants us to slow down in dating, while Mars in Aries was the high of the chase. There will be a bit of a push-pull energy because of this, yet this can actually be quite beneficial, as it’ll help us not rush into things. I speak more about this in the monthly forecast above.
🪐 Wednesday May 1st
Venus in Taurus is square Pluto in Aquarius on Wednesday, which can make us feel obsessive when it comes to our money and relationships.
You could have a power struggle with a certain romantic relationship, friendship or business partnership.
This could also look like a secret being revealed to you by someone you know.
This is however, a very helpful energy to concentrate on how you organize your money, learn about investing, or just figuring out, what do you truly value?
If things feel intense, be sure to take a break from a conversation, and do something that calms you, such as journaling, breath work or going for a walk.
🪐 Thursday May 2nd
Pluto turns retrograde in the sign of Aquarius on Thursday, having us reassess how we view power collectively, and what needs to change in society.
Since Pluto is a generational planet (I still consider it a planet!)— you won’t feel this retrograde as much as Mercury, Mars, or Venus.
Pluto unearths and uncovers, and can potentially bring up some plumbing issues, so keep this in mind.
Wherever Aquarius is in your chart, this is the area of life where you’ll be transforming over the next 20 years, and this is a slow process. Pluto will retrograde back into Capricorn later this year for a short amount of time before moving back into Aquarius.
I spoke more about how Pluto in Aquarius will affect you in your 2024 horoscopes.
🪐 Friday May 3rd
On Friday, Mars in Aries is sextile to Pluto in Aquarius, which is really supportive in transforming how we work and date.
You could have a motivational work out, approach a work situation differently that helps you get more accomplished, or start dating with a new strategy.
This energy is also beneficial when showing up in community and friendships. Perhaps you attend a work out class with a friend, or go to a fun and transformational networking event.
I dive much deeper into the astrology of the month, and how it will affect you on my podcast, you can listen to it above!
