Aquarius Monthly Horoscope May 2009 | Astrology Zodiac Sign: Aquarius

(Jan 20 - Feb 19)

During the first three days of May, you get a sense that something is about to happen. This is your intuition connecting with you: pay attention to it. If you've put off making a payment or getting in touch with someone, don't make things worse by procrastinating. Take action right away. You probably don't have all the answers, nor are you expected to. Just get the conversation going.

The 5th is very constructive. You discover another way to make things right, get what you want and bring a smile to everyone's face. Run with the best opportunity that occurs on that day.

The 7th is a day to circle on your calendar. Mercury goes retro until May 30th, but creates a longer impact due to its 'storm' period. So the real day you finally feel out of Mercury's haze, particularly in terms of a close relationship or home matter is June 9th.

On May 9th, a Full Moon in Scorpio occurs. This is eye opening and helps you understand the best way to handle a career or reputation issue. If you're considering leaving one career path for another, this phase is clarifying. If you're confused about what to do or how to resolve an ongoing drama, May 9th helps you focus on your top tier priorities instead of being distracted by random events, remarks, etc.

You make each choice, from the 13th onward with one or two people in mind. You don't want to unravel another's sense of security or comfort and do everything in your power to make things easier for him or her. The 16th also helps you focus on the most important people and things. You make a point to put a barrier up that shuts down undesirable interruptions, noise and problems. By being proactive about your space and serenity, you get much better results than by leaving things to chance. On the 20th, the Sun moves into Gemini, emphasizing a very special friend or loved one. You try very hard during the next 30 days to make sure this friend or loved one feels utterly adored and well cared for.

Between the 21st and 27th, you feel in need of a vacation. Even if it's a staycation, go for it! You need some peaceful, no-stress time by yourself or with a friend or loved one. The 29th pushes Mars into your home and family sector until mid-summer, suggesting a very busy, on-the-move period.
