Your Weekly Horoscope for May 1–7, 2022: Venus enters Fiery Aries

May 1, 2022

Would you believe me if I told you that there are significant transits happening every day throughout this week? 

Beginning on Sunday, May 1, Venus in Pisces sextiles Pluto retrograde in Capricorn, allying the exalted minor benefic and the regressing CEO of the underworld. Pluto’s mighty energy can turn Venus inside out, perhaps in a more introspective manner thanks to Pluto being retrograde. Acts of love will be impressively forceful, showing the true nature behind one’s not-so-secret feelings for their lover. The dynamics of control and power within a financial relationship will also surface. 

Shortly after, Jupiter in Pisces will sextile Pluto retrograde in Capricorn, now bonding the major benefic with the regressing CEO. Pluto’s intensity sparks Jupiter’s introspection, exciting the possibilities of finding buried treasure. Tiny yet transformative Pluto unearths Jupiter’s abundance, luck, and wealth. Surprising yet precious findings may occur all day. Just remember that luck can come in many forms!

Then Mars in Pisces sextiles Uranus in Taurus, harmonizing the dreamy minor malefic with the comfort-seeking wild child. Expect the unexpected when these two meet up, as they could lead to several unpredictable outcomes with anger, aggression, taking action, and sensual passion! Be mindful of your boundaries during this transit since Mars in Pisces can be exceptionally elusive, potentially resulting in an unnecessary ruckus.

The underlying astrological electricity steadies as the sun conjuncts Uranus in Taurus, indicating total alignment with the ego and the wild child. A strong desire to go against the grain will be apparent as each individual leans into their unique truths. Embrace the zany conjunction by honoring your authenticity through your appearance, sacred space, and allowing your inner monologue to come out in conversation. There is comfort in nonconformity!

With the weekend kicking off, there are sure to be some spicy interactions as Venus in Aries sextiles Mercury in Gemini. Fun and flirty, the sextile brings out everyone’s inner Casanova. Each conversation will have its witty zing as people come together in a passionate frenzy! It could be a fantastic transit to honor your creativity, such as writing about lustful love or wildly dancing to upbeat music.

Finally, the sun in Taurus sextiles Mars in Pisces, bridging a tender alliance between the comfortable ego and the dreamy minor malefic. The solar power can steady the Martian drive, quite literally bringing Mars back down to Earth. Sensual and romantic, the sextile is perfect for acknowledging love through tender touches. Immense courage will swell as Mars and the sun work together to intuitively go after its sensual passions and wistful ambitions!

Venus enters Aries

The watery Venus in Pisces energy evaporates, turning into lusty steam as Venus enters red-hot Aries on Monday, May 2. Once exalted, Venus is now in exile as it is reporting to minor malefic Mars. Typically, Venus likes to be adored, chased after, and bewitched. But the Martian-ruled Venus in Aries embraces the exact opposite. Instead of being the highly sought-after prize, Venus in Aries becomes the victor, the chaser, the aggressor.

Fiercely courageous, Venus in Aries never tires when seeking the heart of its love or attaining financial goals. Bold displays of affection are inevitable during this transit as Venus in Aries will stop at nothing to ensure that its love and passion are known. Although aggressive, Venus in Aries means well when going after its desires. Keep the fire stoked during Venus in Aries by continually meeting romantic and financial challenges head-on!
