May Horoscopes

by Henry Seltzer

Aries Horoscope (March 21 - April 19)
Cardinal Fire. Your ruling planet is Mars.

This is the time to swing open all the doors that were previously closed to you. Your self-expression has been somewhat stifled of late, but you are making a serious point of view adjustment right now, and the middle of May is your coming out party. Joy enters your life in greater proportion, the gain begins to exceed the pain, and gregarious sociability replaces stodgy and stuck. If you can let go of your attachment to specific outcomes then the only rule is that there are no rules at all.

As the month begins, you are feeling somewhat lost in space, or in the vast and yeasty territory behind and beyond your conscious mind. Your serious sense of purpose has it's place here, somehow, as you strive to more perfectly identify what you are aiming for, and just how losing your pain and finding yourself all over again in the planes of existence that transcend the merely physical might ultimately serve you. As the Full Moon of May 2nd hits, you may find yourself shaken to the core. This could be a benefit when you consider that no meaningful reconstruction is possible without taking a jackhammer to the concrete of past experience, when it serves as blinders to the present. You are getting ready to build anew and the necessity of change is seeking to percolate its way into your awareness. The blow will be lessoned to the extent that you can be alert to the full range of your possibilities, and to your own inner world. The Last Quarter Moon of the following week emphasizes potential limitations to your goals. You may find yourself stuck in some way, perhaps dwelling in the past rather than looking freely toward the future, although this too is a useful endeavor. This is a time for growth in perspective rather than material affairs, a passage to get though. The New Moon of the following week, taking place on Wednesday, May 16th, represents a fresh start with accomplishment, the more so since your ruler Mars also enters your sign at this time. You are finding a powerful place for your dreams to take root, in the midst of an essentially positive time period that will keep on giving inspiration as the weeks unfold. The First Quarter Moon of the 23rd will also likely be another time of testing and trial. It helps to remember that any obstacles that you encounter are there for your ultimate edification and help you to gain clarity, however hazy the future seems to be in the current moment.
