Horoscope for the week May 1—7, 2023

From the beginning of the week, the dynamics of groups and alliances may change towards hidden conspiracies and under-the-table games, as Pluto slows down its transformative function and begins its five-month retrograde movement until June 11th in Aquarius, and then in grounded Capricorn until the final turnaround on October 10th. If you are unable to succeed in work, communicate productively with like-minded team members, etc., it's best to take a break. Trying to force others to follow a single impulse will only worsen the situation. It's better to look around. What is happening in your environment? Perhaps someone is deliberately trying to obstruct you?

On May 5th, a mysterious Scorpio full moon and lunar eclipse await us. And since the moon will be in opposition to unpredictable Uranus, this powerful lunar aspect can present some signs with surprises that will leave them in a shocking state with dropped jaws! Literally everything, from alliances to scandals and unexpected agreements with enemies, in the next week after the full moon, all sorts of secrets will be revealed.

May 7th will bring even more spring adventures. On this day, loveable Venus will comfortably settle in sensitive Cancer, literally making some particularly sensitive citizens write love notes and hold hands under the moon until dawn. This week, Venus won't be the only one making us do romantic foolishness. Impatient Mars is also in tender Cancer. So if you were looking for a stimulus to serve breakfast in bed to a loved one, the weekend of this week will be an ideal moment for that.

Aries horoscope for the week May 1—7, 2023

Dear Aries, you know how it goes: one step forward, one step back! There's nothing you can do about it, it's a week of retrograde transits. Patience is not typically associated with your sign, but it's what Aries will need in the coming days and months, when the transformation and transmutation planet, Pluto, begins its retrograde motion on May 1st and stays in retrograde until October 10th. In 2023, Pluto's retrograde will start in Aquarius and your 11th house, which is associated with technology and teamwork. Then on June 11th, Pluto will move further into Capricorn and your 10th house of career. Knowing that some events will be beyond your control will help Aries survive the slowdown and stoppage of work processes over the next five months.

But it's not all about work. In fact, on May 5th, the lunar eclipse and full moon in Scorpio will increase the level of passion in your intimate 8th house. Under the spotlight of the lunar rays, your seductive power will be amplified, causing those passing by to stumble... But it's not just that, actually this lunar eclipse represents the completion of all your efforts in the area of close relationships over the past six months. That is, you may break up with someone or, on the contrary, get rid of regular loneliness by finally deciding to be with your loved one and so on. For stable couples, this weekend will be the best moment to celebrate your unity in a special style and even possibly take that next important step you've been dreaming of!

On Sunday, May 7th, Venus moves into the affectionate Cancer, joining Mars in your warm 4th house of family and home comfort. Allow your inner creator to make a couple of suggestions for refreshing your living space. And since Venus is the planet of love, part of your motivation may be directly aimed at turning your personal corner into a love nest. Regardless of the status of your relationship, the period before June 5th will be the perfect time for you and your partner to move from dissatisfaction to dreams regarding your home. If you are still waiting for your significant other, this transit of Venus can help you attract the right person into your orbit, but of course, you must actively approach your fate.

Taurus horoscope for the week May 1—7, 2023

Dear Taurus, you should enjoy the beginning of this week. This week coincides with the beginning of the month and Pluto's retrograde motion. So in a sense, we can conclude that it will be a retrograde week! Get ready, attention, and no "Start", in our case "Slow down"! So, on May 1st, changeable Pluto will hit the brakes and, turning in Aquarius, will start moving backward towards Capricorn. Later this year, this maneuver of Pluto will affect your X house of ambitions and career goals, and then it will return to your IX house of expanded influence for several months. In the near future, there may be a change in the trajectory or speed of your movement on the professional track, but unfortunately, you will not be able to rest during this time. Pluto is a strategist and schemer, so you may be involved in planning and preparing for some backstage processes.

On May 5th, a full moon and lunar eclipse in Scorpio will occur in your seventh house of serious partnership, shifting Taurus' focus on their relationships. Despite the retrogrades of Mercury and Pluto, under the influence of this lunar aspect, events that have lasted for the past six months may accelerate and quickly come to a logical conclusion. For example, if you met someone by chance, you may suddenly want to determine what you are really doing with this person. Your sign, by nature, strives for security and does not like ambiguity, so Taurus should have a straight talk, even if you are afraid of what they will say in response to your questions.

But the weekend will be just fantastic. On May 7th, loving Venus enters soft and gentle Cancers and your third house of sociability, so love takes the rulers of your sign away like a light breeze... Moreover, in the sign of Cancer, Venus joins its impatient lover Mars, making Taurus more open to fun. Don't be surprised if something "important" in your life and beyond becomes less attractive than something "fun and carefree" on this weekend and beyond! Of course, if the last thing you need is casual relationships, you will have to find the strength to remain resolute in these playful moods. However, if you are in a couple, giving more attention to your partner, you will have a great time together.

Gemini horoscope for the week May 1—7, 2023

Dear Gemini, you dream and you should dream of something bigger! Just don't get carried away, sometimes it's better to stick to reality, not going ahead of your fantasies. Gemini will understand the value of this advice on May 1, when insightful Pluto begins its first retrograde cycle this year. Moving backwards, the planet of transformations will affect your 9th house, which is responsible for visions and the vision of the future, and then after June 11, your 8th house of intimacy, temptations, and joint resources. Most likely, in the next few months, Geminis may need to reduce their expenses, delay or even postpone some of their summer plans. On the other hand, Pluto's retrograde transit can alert Geminis to risks and possible mistakes in their ventures. In other words, Geminis should be cautious, slowly moving forward in their strategic plans until Pluto returns to direct motion in October 2023.

On May 5, there will be a full moon and lunar eclipse in Scorpio and your 6th house of obligations, work, and health. This lunar aspect will highlight issues likely related to your healthy lifestyle and complete some of the processes over the past six months. In fact, this is another chance for you to take a rightful place and improve your physical shape on the wave of well-being.

As for your love life, Venus affects Geminis this week, but on May 7, the goddess of love leaves your zodiac sign and moves into the sensitive and emotional Cancers, shifting to the 2nd house of money. In reality, this can be good news both for your love life and financial situation. Geminis may have enjoyed their share of entertainment, romance, and flirting over the past month, but Venus in the sign of Cancer will pair up with impulsive Mars, making representatives of your sign more interested in something that has the potential for serious relationships.

Cancer horoscope for the week May 1—7, 2023

Dear Cancer, a week of retrograde planet parade awaits you. Although it will only involve two planets, at the beginning of the week, you will find it difficult to wake up in the morning, and you will constantly want to delay waking up for another five minutes. On May 1st, perceptive Pluto will retrograde in the 8th house of intimacy, causing Cancers to doubt themselves and their relationships with their partners. However, this backward transit of Pluto is more like a speed limit in rapidly developing situations, allowing you to make necessary changes in relationships that are important to you. Just as you cannot drive a car without regular oil changes and maintenance, you cannot endlessly exploit relationships with your loved one, or they will quickly wither away. You should now look back and understand which of your connections need updating, as well as what has recently developed too quickly.

Unfortunately, by the end of the week, the situation in Cancers' love life will only intensify. On May 5th, there will be a full moon and lunar eclipse in passionate Scorpio, illuminating your creatively oriented 5th house of love. Usually, full moons signify the end of processes started over the last five to six months, which could also draw a line under your period of seclusion. In any case, Cancer can expect an energetic jump in amorous impulses, which is great if you're in the process of developing relationships or just starting them. If you're single or focused on something else, this eclipse can ignite your creative potential and lead to good results, allowing you to advance even in your love life.

And yet, true love passions reach their peak on May 7th! Seductive Venus enters your zodiac sign, combining her love energy with the passion of Mars, which will be in your sign until May 20th. In mythology, Venus and Mars were lovers despite Venus being married to Hephaestus. So, as you can imagine, this couple together will make your weekends not only passionate but also full of adventures! Who knows, maybe even adventurous. For stable couples, this transit of Venus can quickly take your relationships to a new level, so if you have something to discuss, plan an "important" conversation as soon as possible, so you have more time to enjoy each other's company.

Leo horoscope for the week May 1—7, 2023

Dear Leo, have your romantic proposals been rejected? Well, it's not all that obvious. With the beginning of this week, everything can turn upside down! The thing is, on May 1st, Pluto, barricading in your 7th house of serious partnership and marriage institute, starts its long retrograde cycle until October 2023. Pluto rules secrets, power, and strong emotions, so its retrograde period may not be the easiest time for Leos. But if you are looking for clarity and are ready for commitment, then this is a necessary, even inevitable process of stopping before a decisive action. If your close relationships have encountered difficulties, the only thing you should not do is close your eyes and pretend nothing is happening. In any case, clarifying misunderstandings can help your couple determine their positions and work mutually to strengthen your bond on a more solid foundation.

Moreover, it is important to remember that retrograde aspects rule the past, so an old love may call on you again. For some, this will be normal and even desirable. On the other hand, it may harm someone, threatening the successful development of current relationships. All of this is possible within a month since retrograde Pluto will be in your 7th house from May 1st to June 11th.

The Full Moon and Lunar Eclipse on May 5th could be the turning point you hoped for. This concluding lunar aspect will occur in the 4th house of family and home, inspiring Leos to make significant changes. For example, for someone, this may mean moving. And given Pluto's influence on the sector of serious relationships, exchanging keys with a loved one and further living under the same roof is possible. In one way or another, this lunar aspect could make some relationship more official or lead to the restoration of a relationship with an old friend or relative.

May 7th is the time for fantastic fantasies! Romantic Venus joins the fierce Mars in tender Cancer, in your 12th house, which is responsible for dreams and imagination. Although the convergence of these planets will be short, their joint impact on your 12th house will be very strong. Focusing Leos' attention on events and various aspects of their personal life, Venus and Mars can contribute to your determination. In this sensitive phase, Leos can become capable of miracles. But, on the other hand, you should be on the alert, as this is the same energy that hides illusions, confusion, and deception.

Virgo horoscope for the week May 1—7, 2023

Dear Virgo, ready or not, this week you enter a period in your life where you can reassess many aspects of your daily life, including health, work attitudes, and unnoticed but important daily matters. It's all due to the retrograde planets! On May 1, the pervasive Pluto begins a long cycle of backwards motion in Aquarius and your VI house of planning, organization, and health until June 11. From there, it will return to Capricorn and your V house of love, where it will continue to move backwards until October 10. But that's later – for now, Pluto is associated with your VI house of organization, which is beneficial for your zodiac sign, as no one but the Virgo pays as much attention to details as you do. In other words, this voluntary slow pace, provided by retrograde Pluto, can become a relief for you after a rather turbulent period of change. Virgos will appreciate the rare opportunity to rest and regroup.

On May 5, there will be a Scorpio full moon, intensified this time by a lunar eclipse in your communication sector. Virgos will have the opportunity to demonstrate their talents and convey a message to a wider audience. But what do you have that you can give to others as a legacy? Perhaps it's too early for you to worry about this. In any case, the next two weeks following the lunar eclipse are saturated with opportunities to realize your dreams, and the clearer they appear to you, the easier it will be to materialize them later.

Virgos will find it easier to get comprehensive support on May 7, when Venus joins energetic Mars in compassionate Cancer and your XI house of community and technology, shifting focus to people and groups who share your ideas. In this tandem, Venus will provide desire while Mars will provide passionate motivation, so you will have everything you need for success. Since Venus rules the arts and the XI house is your domain of revolutions, you can think creatively and use your time, energy, and money consciously to improve your surroundings. However, Venus is also the planet of love, and the XI house governs the digital sphere, so if you suddenly decide to find a partner on a dating app or website, your endeavors will also be supported.

Libra horoscope for the week May 1—7, 2023

Dear Libra, from the very beginning of this week, your nostalgia may take over your mood, making everything blue from sadness. On May 1st, as Pluto shifts into retrograde, it begins its long retrograde period until October 10th, 2023. During the direct movement of the planet of transformation, its intensifying influence triggers desires and enhances your natural magnetism, expanding the horizons of your romantic possibilities. But during the retrograde phase through the 5th house of love and creativity for the next six weeks, Libra will most likely build relationships with someone they have known for a long time. Even a return to past relationships is possible.

On May 5th, you may make some final decisions. On this day, there is a Full Moon and Moon eclipse in Scorpio, illuminating the 2nd house of income and financial security. The good news is that eclipses signal completion, so the project you have been working on since last year may finally be completed and bear financial fruit, in the following two weeks. Even if the process is not completely finished, don't worry, you may not see the whole picture. Perhaps this is only the end of the first part, and the next phase may be more profitable.

On May 7th, gracious Venus enters gentle Cancer and your 10th house of ambition and professional success. So despite the weekend, Libra will receive cosmic support in advancing their career or work interests. Of course, the development of these processes is likely to occur the next day, although Venus will be in this sign until June 5th. Also, ambitious Mars will be in Cancer until May 20th, significantly boosting the influence of Venus and providing energetic support for Libra. In other words, you have the chance to make a breakthrough in your career. The 10th house governs your long-term goals, and the Venus-Mars tandem can improve your vision of how you want to see your future. For example, if you have reached a certain level and cannot progress any further, despite all your efforts, then from May 7th to 20th, you have a chance to break through the ceiling and reach a new level.

Scorpio horoscope for the week May 1—7, 2023

Dear Scorpio, you know how they say "home is where your heart is," implying that a person's home is always where they feel good, where they can rest their soul and body. At the beginning of this week, on May 1st, Pluto, your ruling planet, will go retrograde, activating your fourth house of family and traditions. This will indicate to Scorpios that not everything is as smooth as they try to present it. Much depends on the state of your refuge, whether your heart is full of love and optimism or boiling with shame and offense. The patience of representatives of your sign may have been running out lately, and it won't take much effort for you to reach your limit. In other words, what others perceive as a given can unexpectedly explode the situation. Even a small thing from someone in the family can cause everything to get out of control! But you know what? All this will only be an excuse after the battle. In fact, you can prepare for such actions this time by deciding to act differently than usual. If you admit to yourself deep down, you will find the exact answer of how not to act and how to act to avoid scandals.

An unclear situation may become clear to you on May 5th, after a full moon combined with a lunar eclipse in your zodiac sign. The thing is, this will be the last lunar eclipse in a series of lunar eclipses in recent years. In other words, it is a kind of final point in some long-term processes of your transformations, it will clear your path for further dreaming, wishing, and materializing them. Take it as a sign from the universe that you should not be satisfied with what sounds good but causes you doubts. Lunar eclipses bring us revelations, and since this lunar eclipse happens in your sign, its influence can be incredibly enlightening or sobering, or both!

On May 7th, Scorpio's thoughts may turn in a completely different direction, as Venus joins impatient Mars in Cancer in your ninth house of expansion and adventure. If there is tension in your relationship with your partner, for the next four weeks, you may experience the liberating feeling of lightness in your interactions. In fact, nothing will change except your understanding that you can be committed and feel free, indulging in pleasures for pleasure's sake!

Sagittarius horoscope for the week May 1—7, 2023

Dear Sagittarius, it is not typical for you to keep everything inside! Holding onto resentment or unspoken desires, you poison yourself from within every passing second. If you have something to say, try to express it out loud as soon as possible! It all comes down to Pluto, specifically the beginning of its retrograde motion. On May 1st, tough and penetrating Pluto starts to move backwards in your 3rd house of self-expression until June 11th. For this period, tensions with friends, neighbors, siblings will be characteristic. Simply put, the 3rd house is your center of communication, while Pluto is known for its rigidity and manipulative tendencies. If Sagittarius does not use its natural frankness and openness, then your communication and conversations can quickly become tense, leading to arguments and conflicts. You know what they say: evil begets evil! So your communication with loved ones will become like ping-pong - you say a strong word, thereby giving them permission to say a strong word in return! It's difficult, but still try to eliminate any arrogance or self-satisfaction from your words, actions, and even gestures.

On May 5th, Sagittarius can turn to their mystical side. On this day, there will be a lunar eclipse and a full moon in Scorpio, activating your 12th house of introspection, mysticism, subconsciousness, and divine inspiration. You are still in charge of your life, but if at the end of this week Sagittarius feels that they are guided by a benevolent supernatural force, then try to relax and see where it leads you. New moons usually end lunar cycles, opening up new paths for us. Considering that this lunar aspect involves an eclipse, everything will be so random and unpredictable that you don't need to search, you just need to stay put and be attentive. Soon, fate will tell you what to do.

Events will really start to heat up on May 7th, when Venus, the temptress, enters Cancer and your 8th house of close relationships, joining passionate Mars in this sign. If you are in a relationship, this cycle can strengthen the bond in your couple and cement it in a long-term union. If, of course, you want to make an effort to take it to the next level of commitment. Single Sagittarius may feel repulsed by interactions that do not have any further prospects. With two love planets exciting your 8th house, you desire spiritual connection and stop seeking solace in carnal pleasures. Sagittarius is a very free-spirited sign, but the transit of Mars and Venus can change something deep inside you.

Capricorn horoscope for the week May 1—7, 2023

Dear Capricorns, show us your money! On May 1st, transformative Pluto will begin retrograde motion in Aquarius and your second house of money and finances, bringing financial issues to the forefront. Pluto is a mysterious planet associated with everything hidden and otherworldly, so you will need to monitor your expenses and personal spending, especially those that are not explicitly included in your budget. Nonetheless, something may slip your view, causing you to worry about future prospects. Instead of worrying about what has not yet happened, use your patience inherent to Capricorns, consider a plan for unforeseen events. On June 11th, Pluto will return to your sign and continue retrograde motion until October 10th, and then go forward until returning to your financial sector on January 20th of next year. Even if things freeze or do not go as planned, look at it as an opportunity to review your plans and adjust your goals. When Pluto turns around on October 10th, 2023 and continues to move directly in your sign, you will have another chance for work or for obtaining income by means that did not work the first time.

On May 5th, the lunar eclipse and full moon in Scorpio falls in your eleventh house of technology and teamwork, which may indicate some changes in your team or situation in the work collective. Full moons usually lead to the culmination of some processes, so the efforts of your entire team over the past few months should result in a certain outcome in the next couple of weeks. Accept your victory with gratitude, but don't stop there!

On May 7th, the planet of love Venus will enter the sensitive Cancer, which corresponds to the seventh house of strong relationships. In this sector, Venus, joining her companion Mars, who, according to mythology, was more than just a companion to her. Thanks to these two planets of passion, regardless of your status, the personal life of Capricorns is ready for intensification. The main thing, as always, is to understand what you really want. Understand your true desires and intentions. For example, if you have a strong partnership, what can make you even happier? Communicate more with your partner. Use Venus' diplomacy to address topics you usually avoid. Single Capricorns will benefit from a surge in popularity. However, do not lose sight of the main thing. When you understand what you want and what you don't accept, you naturally filter out unsuitable people and at the same time attract people with potential.

Aquarius horoscope for the week May 1—7, 2023

Dear Aquarians, you have already gone through a quite turbulent period in your life, but this week events will intensify even further, stirring up matters around your sign. Everything is happening as if the already strong dynamics of what's happening around you were not enough, so make sure you stand firmly on the ground, keeping in touch with reality! The main news is that Pluto, the planet of transformations, which has been barraging your sign for some time now, begins its first retrograde period on May 1. If until now Pluto has been increasing your energy to record levels, after the start of the retrograde movement, the planet of transformation allows you to slow down a bit. Due to the retrograde movement, Pluto begins to move in the opposite direction to the sign of Capricorn (your XII house of secrets and divine inspiration), where it will be until October 10. After that, it will return to your sign only on January 20, 2024. This event may cause a real upset in your life. For example, if you have just started a personal project, Pluto's reverse movement through your sign may lead to frustration and loss of orientation. But in reality, you should trust the process! Everything that happens, happens for a reason. Most likely, some details were missed, or new information has emerged that could change the scope of your work or fundamentally change the direction of your actions, and so on. Instead of cursing fate and getting angry, take the opportunity to stop and take stock, adjust your plans, and assess progress to date.

On May 5, thanks to the full moon and lunar eclipse, you may finally receive well-deserved recognition. This is due to the fact that these lunar aspects charge your X house of career success, completing processes initiated in the business sphere over the past six months. This is your moment of glory!

On May 7, the benevolent Venus joins motivated Mars in Cancer, corresponding to your VI house of health, regimes, and planning. Mars will remain in Cancer until May 20, and Venus will be in your health sector until June 5. So the next few weeks with their strengthening dose of energy can help Aquarians resolve their constantly troubling chronic illnesses and pains. And since Venus is the planet of love, as is Mars, your desire to take care of yourself may inspire you to renew your efforts in the field of dating or to reignite feelings that have lost their sharpness in your relationship.

Pisces horoscope for the week May 1—7, 2023

Dear Pisces, if you have long had a desire to isolate yourself, disconnect from the outside world and contemplate the eternal, then your time has come. This week, you will have such an opportunity! On May 1, gloomy Pluto slows down and begins a long retrograde period in your 12th house of introspection, which will last until October 10. This sector is associated with your zodiac sign, as well as with dreams, liberation, and healing. Starting from this Monday, Pisces may prefer to temporarily abandon their social obligations in favor of personal time in their inner space. Although this does not mean that you will only sit in a lotus pose, Pisces' activity will indeed decrease. Representatives of your sign will be drawn to their home and will do everything in their power to turn their home corner into the most pleasant and harmonious aquarium for their personal immersion.

Despite your endless desire to spend all your time in solitude, on May 5, the full moon and lunar eclipse in Scorpio can lure Pisces out of their shelter. This lunar aspect falls on your IX house of travel, adventure, and distant wanderings. The reorientation caused by eclipses is often perceived as a sudden event. Unexpectedly, you may receive an offer to conquer the top from friends who are passionate about climbing, or go on some sort of trip along unexplored paths, in general, a journey to some new place where you have never been before. Stay flexible and be prepared to spread out! This full moon should, at the very least, awaken your thirst for adventure!

On May 7, the sweet aroma of romantic vibes will fill the air! Tempting Venus leaves the zone of your home comfort and enters Cancer until June 5, which corresponds to the V house of love. The planet of love in the V house? What could be better for starting a summer romance? Maybe something! And even something very special! The thing is that Venus joins Mars, who is already in your V house of love and romance. So dear Pisces, Cupid himself blesses you with his arrows, causing you to fall in love and soar in the scent of spring flowers and bright colors! Of course, the retrograde period has not been canceled, so Pluto and Mercury will spoil your communication with your loved one. Well, in this regard, Pisces can do what they do best – communicate not with words but with gestures and actions. With Venus in the arms of Mars in your V house, you don't need words!
