Astrology for May 22-28 2025

Magical and Massive Changes, Saturn Enters Aries, New Moon in Gemini

On May 22, Venus in Aries trines Mars in Leo at 16º and the Sun in Gemini sextiles Neptune in Aries at 1º. These are benevolent angles between the planets, allowing for flow and relative ease around inspired action. Venus trine Mars in fire signs will very likely get us going, motivated, activated, and turned on. The Sun in early Gemini is open to change, ready to mingle, curious about the new and the next, and with the help of Neptune, can make for a very romantic/productive day - choose your adventure. Creative energy is flowing, the muses can be accessed. What are you excited about exploring? Get out there today. 

On May 24, the Sun in Gemini trines Pluto in Aquarius at 3º and Mercury conjuncts Uranus in Taurus at 27º. What a powerful day, emphasis on power. There is transformative energy available in spades, should we engage with any truly authentic ambition. Mercury meeting Uranus brings incredible, even shocking insights, information, conversation. Important words are exchanged that completely change the game. This is a day for speaking the truth, standing on business, and walking in the strength of one’s own grounded willpower and integrity. What is revealed is layered at depth, but becomes clear nonetheless. 

Also on May 24, Saturn enters the sign of Aries for the first time in 29 years. Saturn will stay in Aries until September 1 before finding a more permanent stay in this sign from February 2026-April 2028. This is significant. Saturn is the planet that makes us eat our vegetables, create routines, restricts and blocks ego distractions so that we can mature and grow in whatever area of life we may find him. In Aries, Saturn’s mission will be leveling up our own individual and collective relationships to the self, the individual, our relationship with anger, the expression of our will, the courage to fight for our needs and desires, and our physical vitality, to name a few themes. Challenges and lessons begin for each of us during the above time periods. Saturn will bring both rewards and consequences for our work. Which will you earn? 

On May 25, Mercury enters Gemini until June 8. Here we have Mercury, the planet of communication in the sign of its rulership, one of the strongest placements. The daily pace picks up, more correspondences, more emails, texts, and phone calls. Local meet ups and short distance travel are highlighted during this period of time. We have a lot on our minds, fresh curiosities, and the inquisitive impulse to follow them. Network. Continue to ask questions. Gemini energy is mutable, and we are graced with more possibilities if we can remember to consider them. Incredibly mentally stimulating energy. If you are someone that is prone to mental or social anxiety when overstimulated, this would be an important time period to remember tools for grounding.

May 26 brings the New Moon in Gemini at 6º with Mercury, the ruler of the new Moon, nearby. Set those intentions for new mental patterns, new self talk, new ways of communicating, upgrading travel plans, and all things having to do with learning. This lunation invites sampling the buffet of life in the coming weeks, as we have recently moved into new territory in many ways.  On May 27, Mercury in Gemini moves to trine Pluto in Aquarius at 3º, further supporting any intentions or ideas we pen down. Mercury at this time is also breaking away from a sextile with Saturn and Neptune in Aries. Words are incredibly powerful now. Work on your words, your voice, your projects, what you need to say through your chosen mediums etc. This can also be a time for serious and intentional conversations that help to pave a new way forward/detach us from an old way of being. We have the power to dive deep into tough topics with grace and fluency now. Initiate. Transformation is on offer. Butterfly medicine at its finest.
