Horoscopes for May 2026 By Jeanne Douglas

Aries (21 March to 19 April):
Minor issues have been niggling you over the last few weeks but now thankfully are starting to calm down. This frees you up for more important matters, particularly work-related but also gives you more time to pursue a few personal dreams and your romantic life. New ideas as to how to improve your cash situation also come to mind.
Taurus (20 April to 20 May):
The New Moon in your sign this month points to new beginnings, especially where your personal life is concerned. So expect some breakthroughs and a future that looks much brighter! You may have to deal with a difficult relationship that really has run its course and just needs some closure. Your enhanced intelligence also helps.
Gemini (21 May to 21 June):
A new admirer enters the scene and begins to devise an ingenious way to approach you, so be on the lookout for developments or any new activities whatsoever! Financial increase is also likely right now, much to your liking. Time spent quietly with your thoughts or in quiet meditation helps you to power and re-energise.
Cancer (22 June to 22 July):
You set out to gather new information and may even embark on a course of educational or self-improvement study. This gives you much to look forward to and some general direction in life. Work is demanding but also promises many rewards although this may take some time to actually manifest. Your popularity soars so enjoy.
Leo (23 July to 22 August):
A partner continues to hold all the power cards but at least issues are in safe hands, so rest assured that all should go well! You’re in a highly creative phase at present and have the practicality to follow through with home improvement projects. Decorating and refurbishments are quite likely just now. Work goes great.
Virgo (23 August to 21 September):
Partners and close ones seem to know just what to say and just what to do! So it’s best to leave major decisions to them and just enjoy the ride – and the scenery. Old obligations come to a head and need some revision. So use your creative imagination to come up with ways to move forward successfully. Things work out.
Libra (22 September to 22 October):
Others either have their heads in the clouds or are heavy-going this month, leaving you quite happy with your own company and unwilling to seek others out necessarily. Some even have an axe to grind over one thing or another and you’re wise therefore to keep your head down. Luckily, true soul-mates really find you.
Scorpio (23 October to 21 November):
A partner comes to your aid with just the right solution to an emotional issue and saves the day! Their intelligence is running high and they’re able to communicate in an effective way, making them the hero in your life right now. Warmth and care from an old romantic link makes you realise their love for you.
Sagittarius (22 November to 21 December):
Romance runs high in your life and you may even discover a new admirer just looking out for you all the time. A close friend offers you a trip with a business opportunity if you have the urge to go down that path. It’s up to you! Hobbies are difficult and problematical for you right now so give these a rest for a while.
Capricorn (22 December to 19 January):
A partner has some travel adventures to pursue and these may be work-related, so you may have to give them time to fulfil their obligations. Meanwhile, an admirer at work turns your head and this is heart-warming indeed. Home projects are demanding yet so worthwhile. Life is rather fun at the moment.
Aquarius (20 January to 18 February):
There’s still a great deal to do to get your life perfectly just the way you want it! So give yourself time being as you may get a little frustrated at times. Being at home is the best place for you to be right now, with all your favourite things just waiting for you to enjoy. Quiet study also goes just so well right now.
Pisces (19 February to 20 March):
Life may seem rather quiet at times but you’re still holding all the cards where others are concerned which does wonders for your credibility. You’re working hard for your cash yet continue to hold on to some precious dreams that you yearn for! So just keep on going. You do express yourself and make quite an impact.
