May Horoscopes

by Henry Seltzer

Pisces Horoscope (February 19 - March 20)
Mutable Water. Your ruling planets are Neptune and Jupiter.

You are in a good place these days, Pisces, or at least moving in the right direction. A seed for the future has recently been planted and the seed has fallen on fertile ground. You are more than ready to break free from at least a few of the shackles of the past. Something seems to be holding you back from a total assault of those ramparts, but it might also be a healthy strategy to "look before you leap" and be very sure of your ground before you attempt to cross it. You are collecting yourself and the information you will require before a full-on exploration of your depths, so all is indeed well. Your way forward at this time leads you down and through the deeper layers of your psyche before surfacing.

As the month begins, you are feeling comfortable in yourself at all levels. Your work in the world is going well, but even more to the point, you are sensing that it is not your most important product. You are in a natural space of spiritual development, which makes for a better match to your inner nature than relying for sustenance strictly on the rewards and recognition of outer achievement. You are in a rather exciting and excited frame of mind where finances come to you with hardly trying for them and yet there are fluctuations in where and how this all happens. Other resources that you need to be at your disposal come along in strange and wondrous ways, to lend credence to the idea that the universe provides support for those who are "on the path" to their soul purpose. Connections with friends and associates are a large theme this month, as you make some necessary adjustments and course corrections in this area of your life. The New Moon of late Monday evening, May 2nd, provides a burst of energy that takes some of these concerns and gifts over the top. You are for the most part allowing things to unfold for you as though the world was created only for your benefit. That is, unless you get caught in the undertow of past trauma that can have the effect of holding you back from what you deserve. The First Quarter Moon of Tuesday, May 10th, brings up a few snags in the road of your progress, although nothing that your essentially positive attitude cannot solve. There might be exceptions to your relatively easy flow this month when you think too hard about the past and the patterns of dysfunctional behavior that stem from the ancient past but which still have power to affect you in the present moment. It might be time to put these more definitely behind you; and the first step is to fully accept yourself in these hurt places, the residue of childhood trauma. Recognizing and giving love to the hurt child within you is essential to your progress is seeing your clear to a more vibrant and alive future path. With the Full Moon a week later, taking place on Tuesday, May 17th, you reach a form of culmination and a somewhat smoother place where you feel more inspired to reach for the positive outcome that is within your grasp. The final two weeks of the month will be spent in reassessing where you have been with an eye to what you could eventually become. The Last Quarter Moon of Tuesday, May 24th, is especially significant in this regard, a time when the universe could lead you into amazing insights that light your further way forward, to the extent that yo are willing to remain open to it.
