Forecast for May 5-18

By Cortney Litwin / Special to The Malibu Times

Aries influences continue to fire up passion and originality throughout the week. The lyrical merger of Mercury and Venus in Aries from the 9th to the 20th can bring out your inner flirt, poet or humorist. Then Jupiter in Aries intensifies the joie de vivre in communications and relationships when it teams up with Mercury and Venus on the 11th through the 12th.

Toward the middle of May, however, Taurus influences start to take over, replacing headstrong Aries with a sensual, patient, practical energy. Mars enters Taurus on the 11th (through June 19), followed by Venus on the 15th (through June 8) and Mercury on the 15th (through June 1). It’s time to get in touch with your body’s needs, whether sex, exercise or relaxation. Focusing on improving your finances is also favored. Environmental projects will get a boost during the next two weeks as well.

Finally, the full moon in Scorpio on the 17th energizes intimate encounters, emotional healing and financial partnerships.

If you know your rising sign from your time of birth, read that too.
