Aries May 2025

Once April 30 happens, you’re the fairest of them all – all the way until June 6! That’s a deliciously long smoochy Venus transit, where everywhere you go, heads turn. The ancient Greeks believed Venus (Aphrodite) was so beautiful, that flowers grew wherever she walked. And this is the way April and May will be for you. You’ll be at your most gorgeous! The power of beauty is an incredible thing. But that’s not all – for Mercury, planet of thought and speech, is also in Aries until May 10, compelling everyone to listen to you. So, not only will you be looked at nonstop, you’ll be listened to nonstop as well!

This will do wonders for your self-esteem, which has been suffering quite a bit. With Pluto recently moved into your eleventh house of community, you feel uncertain about your professional and social roles with others, as there are changes afoot here. But keep the faith, as many of these will be positive.  (The only warning here is to watch your behavior as it will be at its most public.)

But first, the new money Moon this Sunday, April 27. This occurs in Taurus in your second financial house, and brings a new financial arrangement, or – just, more money. With Uranus also in your financial house, this will occur suddenly and unexpectedly; with the Sun there as well, you’re well-supported and so this should be very positive for you. May, overall, is very much about money. A full Scorpio Moon on Monday, May 12 in your eighth merger house brings what you’ve been working on financially to a conclusion.

In your second house, ruling finances and self-worth, you have:

Awesome, life-giving Sun

Uranus, planet of revolutions

New Taurus Moon on Sunday, April 27

Brilliant thought and speech planet Mercury as of Saturday, May 10

And your second house, traditionally ruled by security-conscious Taurus, covers these areas of your life:

Your finances

Your possessions

Your income

Your resources

The value of everything

Self-value

Self-worth

Safety

Security

Speaking of self-esteem, when you strut your stuff, dear Aries, a career upgrade is yours.

Sexy Mars is in your fifth house of passion (until June 17), so April and May are very passionate months for you as well. Now that Venus is direct again, it’s safe to begin that new relationship you’ve been thinking about pursuing, and you’re free to love again. I predict many will be falling in love with you!

Relationships you’re already in should now go forward much more smoothly. The miscommunications and crossed wires of Mercury retrograde and Venus retrograde (they were brutal) will now cease and you will clear the air with some truthful and healthy discussion.

And do not forget the good fortune working for you in your third house of writing and communications until June 9. This only comes round once every 12 years, so best to utilize it wisely while you have it. Not only do you have extra luck and power in these areas, including anything to do with online communication, they will bring you money.

Then May’s springy beginnings follow a barren time of impatience and overcoming obstacles, and you zoom forward with ambitious new plans. After feeling out of sorts, some of you with serious physical ailments, fire comes back into your emotional body and all that is ruled by your second house of self-value and finance.

Begin May by asking for what you want – and need.

Now is not the time to daydream about these splendid things, but to make them happen. Follow through and finish. What you do now will change your life forever.

The only warning of the month is brought to you courtesy of a volatile Uranus in Aries. In your first house of image and behavior. How you behave now is crucial. You can blame it on others’ provoking you, (or their interpretation), but you might be surprised by others’ poor reception of you. Some of you are mighty near to blowing your top! And some of you will.

Your behavior is on show now, your performance.

You have a chance to ask: how have I been communicating? Putting myself forward? Getting myself heard?

Be gentle now in your communications.

What you have to say is too valuable, too crucial, and yes — it is honest. People need to, and they deserve to, hear the truth. In this area, dear Aries, you are right on. You care deeply about this issue.

To win — and oh, yes, this is a battle that can be won — you must get an A+. Meaning you must communicate everything you feel in the most gentle of tones. So every word is heard.

Have trust that the Universe is supporting you in this. For It is.

The full Moon in Scorpio sweeping your eighth house (already traditionally ruled by Scorpio) on Monday, May 12, is a fabulous culmination of this.

Someone will come in from the past and give you a delicate tap on the shoulder. Again, finances and shared resources will be emphasized. Funding finally comes through.

You need to fact-check everything that is told you. You will do great, Aries, I know you will.

Yes, I will spend the live long day, With Nature in the month of May; And sit beneath the trees, and share
My bread with birds whose homes are there.
