Horoscopes

Aries

May 16, 2026

Your financial acumen is boosted by the Taurus lunation in your resources sector. Also, with your ruler, the action-oriented Mars, angling perfectly to the planet of charm, Venus in Gemini, there is a heightened chance you can enjoy some speedy rapport or even flirty exchanges.

Aries

May 17, 2026

Hold onto your celestial hat, Aries, things speed up hugely today as the chatty Gemini returns to one of the two signs it guides, of Gemini. The next four weeks are going to be jam-packed with bright and breezy conversations and oodles of fast exchanges. All sorts of sparkling encounters are possible, too, and you can find that your mind is that much more alert.

Aries

May 18, 2026

Think back to when Mars entered your sign some weeks ago. Since then, he has been pushing you to be proactive and invest time and energy in your unique talents. Yet there may have been challenges. However, one plan or project that you are really invested in, as he moves to Taurus today, can really start to shape-up in a more tangible, perhaps financially positive way.

Taurus

May 16, 2026

If you enjoyed a sensual connection with someone in your past, thoughts of that person can surface again today. And today's annual Taurus New Moon can just give you a bit more self-belief to reconnect or, ironically, start afresh. Been developing new ideas in the last four weeks? These can now start to gain momentum, so stay single-minded and push on.

Taurus

May 17, 2026

The energy of your personal New Moon, yesterday, is going to radiate for some time, but one of the things it gives you a chance to do is keep your self-belief as solid as possible. You may have been tossing lots of different ideas around in your mind over the last four weeks, but if one is really gripping you and may deliver a tangible return, concentrate on that for now.

Taurus

May 18, 2026

As go-getter Mars arrives in your sign for six weeks, you move from a time of up and down emotions to feeling more energised, and more in the moment. Following on from the recent Taurus New Moon, this can give you greater confidence, self-assurance, and also a feeling of greater attractiveness. You can find yourself taking the initiative and feeling on top form.

Gemini

May 16, 2026

Your star is in the ascendant, and in the coming days, when your unique qualities can shine brightly, you will feel more confident in expressing your creativity and natural talent. If you have a particular gift for the arts, love of fashion or music, you can rediscover your spark. However, today's lunar phase also boosts your instincts, so do stay attuned.

Gemini

May 17, 2026

You may have experienced a see-saw from enjoying some bubbly exchanges to retreating into your own thoughts. Perhaps you have been processing some delicate strands from the past? However, as your ruler, the zippy Mercury returns home to you today, some of those more introspective moments are set to fade away. You'll be seizing the spotlight soon!

Gemini

May 18, 2026

Your ruler, Mercury, aligns with the planet of innovation, Uranus, and can provide a shot of powerful energy around ideas and discussions. You may also find that this creates excess nervous energy, so doing some exercise can be helpful. Someone you worked with in the past could get in touch over the next few weeks, but there may be a financial benefit to this.

Cancer

May 16, 2026

The unique clustering of energy in the most visible part of your chart over the last month or so has been rare, giving you a push to be more assured and raise your profile. However, if you are most at ease in a less public role, that doesn't make it any less valuable. A meet-up with a friend or a group of loved ones can be great now to get their different perspectives.

Cancer

May 17, 2026

Those discussions you have been having about your future hopes and plans have given you a lot of food for thought. Now, with the planet of thinking moving to a more secluded zone, the next few weeks could see you wanting to make time and space to ponder your options more carefully. You may not feel as outgoing or chatty, and communication may focus on deeper ties.

Cancer

May 18, 2026

The celestial powerhouse, Mars, moves into your sector of collaboration, and this can be excellent for building connections and networking. Just be mindful that the restless link of Mercury and Uranus in a tender zone may bring an unsettled vibe around certain friends or people. Don't feel obliged to reach out; instead, connect with people you're really sure of.

Leo

May 16, 2026

This is a weekend when a professional or career breakthrough is possible, but equally, things that foster sociability, connection, and friendship can appeal. If it has been a while since you have been able to really enjoy yourself, now is a perfect opportunity to take the initiative and get in touch. Arrangements can be made quickly but prove to be great fun.

Leo

May 17, 2026

You're likely to freshen up your friendships in the years to come now that the provocative Uranus has entered your social zone for a long stay. Bonds that have grown stale could make way for zestier people. Some of these new links may be fleeting, but you can undoubtedly bring new energy and possibilities, all of which is complemented by chatty Mercury today.

Leo

May 18, 2026

You've been actively considering your options and, if a change in your work or worldly role has been part of that, the weeks ahead give you a fabulous opportunity to raise your profile or apply for new positions. Mars is going to give you more self-assurance and the extra drive to pursue your major goals. Your mind can also be alive with some brilliant, fresh ideas of how.

Virgo

May 16, 2026

A potent cluster of energy in the most expansive part of your situation can get you thinking about bringing greater variety to your life, perhaps by learning new skills. Over the weekend, you may research academic or professional courses, or perhaps the chance to snaffle a last-minute travel opportunity, but this may be linked to work. You may, though, feel restless.

Virgo

May 17, 2026

Deep, transformative Pluto has been powerfully, if subtly, asking you to consider changes in your work or life patterns over the last few years.

Virgo

May 18, 2026

Libra

May 16, 2026

Is someone currently showing up on your cosmic radar, Libra? You may find yourself taking the initiative to reach out. A playful text, a provocative comment, or a little bit of teasing may be your way of opening up to them. Then again, watching or reading anything with a mysterious dimension and one that helps deepen your perspectives could prove intriguing too.

Libra

May 17, 2026

Mercury, the intermediary or messenger, moves to a really expansive phase of his annual celestial journey and forges an immediate and scintillating link to the restless Uranus. Whilst you often like to carefully weigh up situations, you could find yourself more carefree now, and this can lead you to do things spontaneously and to live in the moment. Exciting!

Libra

May 18, 2026

There is a celestial paradox today, Libra, for as the powerful Mars moves into your sector of deep commitment, thinker Mercury aligns to the freedom-loving Uranus, in your zone of exploration. How will this play out? You can find yourself researching unusual financial opportunities, or if you are unsure about an existing work or business tie, look to break free.

Scorpio

May 16, 2026

Today's New Moon in your sector of relating comes just as Mercury, the communicator, and the Sun are heading towards the end of their annual passage through this part of your situation. Whilst you can set your intentions of what you'd like to bring into your world regarding someone new, your thoughts may be focused on clarifying an existing tie or situation.

Scorpio

May 17, 2026

You have a gift for teasing out information that others miss. Scorpios often work in analytical roles and flourish in banking and investment.

Scorpio

May 18, 2026

If you would like to get more active, a great way to do so in the coming weeks is to get involved in any kind of one-to-one sport, like tennis, badminton, or padel.

In romance, you can find yourself more open, and with the planet of desire linking to the sensuous, Venus, someone new can enter your orbit.

Sagittarius

May 16, 2026

Over recent years, maintaining a consistent rhythm or pattern around work, domestic demands, obligations, or commitments to others may have been elusive.

Sagittarius

May 17, 2026

Your exuberance can bubble to the fore magnificently now. All sorts of sparkling exchanges are possible. If you do venture out today or connect with someone online, there can be a magnetic connection. You often appreciate unique people, but most of all, you enjoy interacting with those who are curious, so a chat with someone buzzy, can prove to be a blast.

Sagittarius

May 18, 2026

Despite all the aids and tech, we have to make our lives easier, free time often seems short.

A lovely surprise encounter can also prove fun, with the other person sharing your sharp wit and sense of fun.

Capricorn

May 16, 2026

New Moons are where the Sun and Moon collaborate, as they meet in the sky, once every 28 days.

Your mind can be incredibly agile today, Capricorn, and whilst you may chat with someone about an idea you have, equally you could find yourself busy in a practical but innovative way.

You can feel even more attractive, and others will sense this too. Mars can also pep up your desire to socialise. All your creative talents can also be boosted by the additional passion he provides.

Aquarius

May 16, 2026

Although you are one of the zodiac's communication signs, you have another part of your nature which can sometimes appreciate time spent quietly reflecting and stepping back from the hubbub of daily demands. Soon enough, things are going to be going at the speed of light, so if you choose to stay hunkered down at home or pottering on hobbies today, why not?

Aquarius

May 17, 2026

With your modern ruler Uranus, in its fabulous new home for you the last two weeks, now joined by the planet of razor-sharp thinking and witty retorts, Mercury, in the air sign of Gemini, that side of you that can be comfortable with novel interests, and experimental approaches is lit up brightly.

Aquarius

May 18, 2026

Your determination to catch up on neglected DIY jobs or home improvements can be marked from now on.

Pisces

May 16, 2026

There are many sides to Pisces people, and you can be cooler and much less emotional than your cosmic archetype often claims.

All of this can show up with the earthy, sensuality of today's Taurus lunation, when your more chatty, sociable vibe can come up, but with a purpose.

Pisces

May 17, 2026

Be honest, Pisces, do you have a tendency to hang on to items you don't regularly use? This may go beyond treasured family memorabilia to items that are also somehow comforting to hold onto. The planets now align to nudge, nay, prod you, to think about having a major decluttering session. The more physical space you create, the more you can feel lighter yourself.

Pisces

May 18, 2026
