Astrology of the Week Ahead

The astrology of the week of May 25th, 2026, challenges us to keep our eyes on the prize. When Mars squares off with Pluto, tensions run high and we need to pick our battles wisely. Then, as Venus squares Saturn, our relationships come under review, and if we aren’t careful with our boundaries, we’ll get our feelings hurt. But the wild Full Moon in Sagittarius makes it all worth it — liberating us from outdated expectations and stoking our unfiltered creative expression. Now’s the time to focus and follow the energy that feeds you. If you do, it will set you free.

The astrology of the week of May 18th, 2026, changes the pace… and then changes it again. Mars moves into slow and steady Taurus as Venus enters caring Cancer, and their sextile offers us the nurturing we need after the rush of the last few weeks. Mercury is also on the move, sextiling Neptune, squaring the lunar nodes, and trining Pluto, which gives our conversations and connections a powerful boost. But when the Sun enters Gemini, it meets up with Uranus in the mutable air sign for the first time in 78 years. This cazimi is a wild card, sure to serve shocks, surprises, and sudden shifts — both personally and collectively. Now’s the time to get grounded in the things that matter most and get ready to work with some revolutionary energy.

The astrology of the week of May 11th, 2026, brings clarity and a little chaos. Mercury’s sextile to Jupiter helps us get practical and precise in our communications, and the Mercury cazimi offers an extra boost of insight. But when Mars runs into Chiron, our hurts get highlighted. And with the New Moon in Taurus sitting next to Algol (the fixed star associated with rage and betrayal), we’re called to honor our anger if we want to reclaim our power. Then, when Mercury moves into Gemini and meets up with Uranus, our wit and wild ideas get a jolt of high-voltage energy. So get clear on the things that need your attention and your honesty before Gemini season dials up the distractions.
