Your horoscope for May 26 to June 1, 2016
Jupiter is at the third-quarter mark of its one-year tenancy of Virgo. As of Thursday, Jupiter also hits the third-quarter mark in its relationship to Saturn. Together Jupiter and Saturn time the tides of a 20-year economic, political, and cultural trend. The current cycle began in 2000 with the burst of the dot-com bubble and hit the halfway peak at the height of a world economic depression from 2010 to 2012. Facebook’s evolution has coincided with the quarter turns of this cycle like clockwork.
The third quarter of any cycle runs a simultaneous track. The construction program moves to the finishing and completion phase while the next one begins the design and outline phase. We’ll harvest reward or consequence from what has been built. At the same time, the seeds of a new consciousness and a new reality base are sprouting.
Neptune salts the Jupiter/Saturn transit with uncertainty, disillusionment, fear, and loss while peppering it with a limitless wealth of as-yet-untapped potential. And so here we are, collectively and personally standing on the threshold of so many new everyday realities that were unimagined or unimaginable just a short while ago.
On Friday, Mars revisits Scorpio. It will finish retrograde at the end of June but it won’t be done with Scorpio until the start of August. Mars retrograde in Scorpio is optimal for restrategizing and renovations of all kinds. Continue to pace yourself, to stay observant and informed. As time moves forward, the better choices and options will naturally prove themselves.
Saturday/Sunday, soak it up. Monday/Tuesday, fire it up.
Aries
March 20 - April 20
Why, who, what, and how? Mars retrograde now takes you into deeper questioning and probing. As the process continues, your perceptions, instincts, needs, and desires undergo a natural, yet major, metamorphosis. Into the start of August, Mars in Scorpio helps you to clear away the clutter and to figure out your next move. Sunday through Tuesday are optimal for setting wheels in motion.
Taurus
April 20 - May 21
You’ve been in the thick of it for most of this year, likely longer. Since March, Mars in Sagittarius has exponentially increased the scope. Mars on the backtrack through Scorpio takes you much deeper into a critical re-evaluation process. It also assists you to get it under better control. This weekend, socialize, freshen it up, or unplug. Monday/Tuesday, say it; do it.
Gemini
May 21 - June 21
Whether it’s getting the job or the job hunt better managed, a health regimen, or an attitude overhaul, for the next two months, Mars in Scorpio will keep you busy with renovation projects. Along with the sun, Venus, freshly into Gemini, is enhancing and mobilizing, but Saturn and Mercury continue to add pressure and/or slow the pace through the first week of June.
Cancer
June 21 - July 22
Mars on a backtrack to Scorpio works to your benefit. Watch for your instincts to kick in and kick up a notch. You should find that you are able to zero in on them better. Even so, there’s more time to put in before you feel certain, confident, or up to speed. Keep it simple; go with the flow this weekend.
Leo
July 22 - August 23
Are you on target for where you want and need to be? Mars on the backtrack preoccupies you with a critical review of baselines and objectives. While Venus in Gemini sets opportunity in motion, for the next two weeks it can be hard to tell which end is up. It’s a lose-track-of-time, total-immersion weekend. Monday/Tuesday, take your best shot.
Virgo
August 23 - September 23
Soak up visits, romance, or free time this weekend. Don’t push what isn’t coming naturally, but by all means take full advantage of the gifts of the moment. Now through the start of August, Mars on a revisit of Scorpio helps you to fill in an important missing blank, to reclaim what was lost, and to be more effective in getting your message across.
Libra
September 23 - October 23
No matter what you get up to this weekend, time is likely to simply evaporate. You can do no better than to submerge yourself right where you are. Over the next few weeks, the sun and Venus, freshly into Gemini, will put relationships, plans, ambitions, and you on the go. Even so, through the first few days of June, there’s something to surpass.
Scorpio
October 23 - November 22
The weekend ahead is great for getting your fill of pleasure in whatever way suits you best. Soak up the good stuff. It’s easy to be swept away in spending, indulging, and romance—the promise or the potential. Mars on a return to Scorpio is good for a personal regroup. Take your time to feel your way along. Don’t rush; don’t push. Sunday/Monday, you’re on fire.
Sagittarius
November 22 - December 21
The next two months of Mars in Scorpio is best used for a time-out and a battery recharge. Home is the place to be this weekend, alone or with those you love. The sun and Venus in Gemini will put you back on track and in better touch with folks, but through the end of next week, it’s stop-and-go.
Capricorn
December 21 - January 20
It’s a great weekend for socializing or an escape. Mars’s backtrack into Scorpio provides you with extra time to explore your options and to make sure that you get it right. The sun and Venus in Gemini dish up better picks. Through the end of next week, you’ll nix it or check it off the to-do list.
Aquarius
January 20 - February 18
Excluding take-it-as-it-comes Sunday, the stars provide you with a good energy boost through next Tuesday. Make the most of the here and now. The second half of next week is a mixed bag. Mars on a return to Scorpio calls for a review of priorities, plans, and commitments. Weigh options and wait for/trust time to provide better instructions.
Pisces
February 18 - March 20
Where are you headed and do you really want to go there? An intensified soul-searching and questioning period continues. So much is uncertain and unwritten, but even so, you sense/know that the way forward is shaping itself. It is. Big-time. Saturday through Tuesday is prime for action or a leap of faith; otherwise follow, allow, and respond rather than take aim.
