CAPRICORN:  The Full Moon in Scorpio on May 1st occur in Scorpio, your eleventh solar house.  Go out and join, whether it's a course of study, a group or a team, or just a gathering of good friends. The world is full of interesting people, and this month, you might be lucky enough to meet some new ones. It's a time to expand your horizons and discover friends and people who share your ideals and hopes.                                 

This isn't a moment to brood over your solitary uniqueness, or embed yourself in obsessive couple-ness to the exclusion of everybody else.        

It's a time to be sociable, to recognize the bonds that link you to others, and perhaps to make decisions that open doors to new contacts, new ways of thinking, and the sense of freedom that comes with friendships based on the mind and the spirit rather than on expediency or simple proximity.

 

As the Sun, Mercury and the New Moon in Taurus is all about love and children this month. The Fifth House of your chart, where we find the sign of Taurus, also associated with sexual relationships which may end in step-parenting, pregnancy or perhaps with younger in-laws. This can be a one-night stand or a serious new passion.

Again, the Sun in this house will show you a mirror. This is an excellent month, in all cases mentioned above, to promise yourself that you will make a fresh start.

 

Your life gets a cosmic shot, courtesy of the New Moon in Taurus on May 16, in your fifth solar house of love. Single? Never mind waiting for “The One” to right-swipe you. Slide into the driver's seat and seek out promising prospects.

Your efforts could be amorously rewarded by the corresponding Full Moon in Taurus on October 26th. Fame could also come knocking under this new Moon. Be proactive and make sure the world is aware of all the awesomeness you have to offer.

 

From May 4th – May 17th, Mercury in Taurus encouraging you to live and speak with passion. While this may feel out of character for your reserved sign, your mic-dropping commentary will get everyone thinking outside the box.         

Keep a capture tool handy as you let the creative juices flow. This Mercury cycle emboldens your romantic pitches. Take the lead, but back up your words with action so you don't get dubbed a player.

 

From May 19th, Venus sails into Cancer and your seventh house of relationships until June 13. Intimate connections take center stage now—you might not be able to focus on much else. Passion could return with a long-term love; single Capricorns might spark a fire with someone new.                                                                                                                                              The seventh house rules all kinds of partnerships, and during this cycle even your business dealings will be harmonious—not to mention lucrative as Venus will meet with lucky Jupiter! 

 

Then, from May 19th through June 28, Mars will be in Taurus into your passionate fifth solar house, Mars urging you to have fun. Put your playful side at the helm for a change, and turn up the volume on your expression. Romance figures prominently during this six-weeks cycle, too.

If you're already in a relationship, a bold declaration of love could be coming your way, from a putting a ring on it to planning a baby. Resist the urge to forge ahead guns blazing. Mars can bring out your impetuous side, so make sure you pace yourself.

 

Work: This long transit of Uranus in Gemini concerns your work. It is time to re-evaluate your level of job satisfaction. Your workplace may change, colleagues may come and go, your salary may vary, and duties alter.      

If you happy at work then you are likely to be fine with any changes that occur. If you are dissatisfied then the time has come to make a move. If unsure of what changes to make, explore your options, and perhaps seek expert advice.                                                                                                   

If you resist the winds of change then you are likely to be forced into making a decision anyway. By the time this cycle is over (2032), you’ll know what it’s like to join other people in bending or breaking the rules.

 

The last two weeks of May, Mercury will be in Gemini. This is a good time for all kinds of mental work. You want everything you do to be as perfect as possible, so you plan carefully and work out every detail in advance. It is a good time to sit down with employers and with employees and talk over any problems that exist. One problem to be careful about is criticizing others. Even in the interest of what you consider to be "objective" truth, try not to trample on others' feelings.

 

Saturn (your ruler) travels in your 4th solar house of home and family, heralding the beginning of a two-year period of maturation in your personal life. Like it or not, you'll be going deep into your family relationships as you learn more about who you are, where you come from, and where you want to go from here.              

Some of you may find yourselves having to take care of an elderly parent, while others might find that adult children must move back in with you.                                                                                

In any case, you will find yourself having to make adjustments at home, becoming more efficient in your domestic routines, and carrying more family responsibilities on your shoulders. There will be rewards for your hard work down the line, so keep smiling.
