Aries May 2026

Your finances and your self-esteem soar this May, and you begin to feel the latter deeply as soon as in a couple of days. I see someone’s been making your life QUITE difficult and as of the April 25 weekend this ongoing situation changes. You experience a sea-change in your confidence and in how you’re treated. And a push-pull dance is over — forever!

For Aries interested in past lives: This manipulative dance repeats in another form at another time – can be months – unless healed. I see your healing requires some past life regressive work, ideally through hypnosis. The past “dance” with this difficult person will be found – and can be healed – there. There has been much unexplained and unjustified resistance, and it finally lifts as you go forward into a triumphant May. Yay, Aries!

I see you celebrating under a full Scorpio Moon at Beltane the first weekend of May. Weirdly, this brings in a new avenue of income to support your creative work when, and IF, you stick to the original plan. Keep working on your goals whatever happens as May opens.

Be grateful for the fantastic outcome – and lesson – and let go of any grudge. It only weighs you down and you have too much to accomplish. You’re intent on what is owed you, and understandably so.

Trust in the new money moon on May 16 to help you, and you’re set. Aggravation about that person who switched tables on you lessens. Due to good fortune and a zen-type, deep-breathing break from thinking about it (and due to regression work for some), your closest connections flourish.

You get everything you want materially, if you keep your priorities straight and choose your battles wisely.

For in your second house of finance – and self-worth – you have:

Shining powerhouse Sun

Genius weird sudden Uranus in its last days, delivering a final kicker as it exits April 25

Nurturing Ceres

Brilliant word and thought planet Mercury as of May 3 (until May 17)

A New Money (Taurus) Moon on Saturday, May 16

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

Money

Possessions

What you own

Financial security

Self-worth

Self-Esteem

The Value of Everything

Future planning

Luxurious surroundings

Determining

Manifesting

Your level of self-esteem determines how you look and feel. Those of you who’ve been experiencing lows and ailments will see light of day after May 3. Checkups and prognoses concerning things that have been bothering you forever will finally make sense of what’s been going on through the right specialist.

Look to the past if you would divine the future – as Confucius said. (Born Virgo Sun, Taurus Jupiter on August 27, 551 B.C.) In other words, do not repeat mistakes of the past! Do not go back to that physician / specialist who did not help you the first time. Search until you find the right healer (for YOU.) And especially this month, to quote wise Confucius again:

It does not matter how slowly you go so long as you do not stop.

Reflective time equals answers!

There’s been a lot of passion in the self-worth area too, but this May, I see your passion opening in other areas.

There’s something magical going on in the deepest part of you as the last visible bodies, in this case the asteroids Pallas and Vesta, exit your twelfth unconscious house April 26 and May 13, respectively.   Revelations and healing realizations rise from the depths of your unconscious, as well as from your dreams. Record your dreams immediately upon waking. At least, try it for a few days with a pad or notebook right on your bedside table.

Now, this can be alarming, especially when you’ve been trying so hard to concentrate on the everyday, but the results are amazing!

In fact, this May, you accomplish much more than you ever thought possible.

A lot of the above you’ve been hacking away at, and clearing, slowly but steadily. But the tension has been incredible, painful really. It may have felt like you could never finish it all.

If someone has offered you help in your finances recently, take it. Do not ignore this offer.

I see you thinking about the inheritance of yourself, and what you want to pass on to further generations.

And here, dear Aries, is where we come to your masterpiece. I have rarely seen one so pronounced in a general chart.

It takes the form of a building.

So, you serve yourself with a fury this month. No one will be able to stop you. That which you want to express, that which must be said, will be done.

And somehow, you keep up all the other work-work you always have to do. The Errands become errands, and you toss them off like dandelion seeds.

It helps that colleagues are becoming more cooperative also. This has actually come about as a result of YOU being more cooperative with THEM. You learned only by being burned. And you learned well.

You are in a stronger position than you know. As you go forward into what feels like an absolute unknown, rest assured that you are making incredible progress. Incredible!

Be exact with numbers and iron clad sure about your facts. You are presenting them to others, and you want to feel absolutely confident as you do.

At times you have absolutely despaired.

Relationships have severely disappointed.

It’s all just a waiting period. A waiting period for commitment from others. Patience is to be learned here. You must act like the innate royal you are, gracious and polite.

And to say you haven’t been aggravated in these areas – and about how much you are worth – is to deny the gods their power. It is ludicrous. Of course you’ve been stressed out here. Who wouldn’t be?

Because this has been getting you so down, May is the perfect time to clear out and feng shui your home, rid your office of its clutter, and let in new energy. You will see a difference if you do this. Check out my feng shui cleansings, in person in NYC, remote for international, here.

As you ease into Summer, Awesome Aries, ready for your stardom.

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.
