Stability and money for some, communication and travel issues for others. See what the lusty month of May has in store for you as we highlight Asian musical theatre characters in honor of AAPI Heritage month!
♉️ Taurus ♉️
(April 20 – May 20)
Xue Xing | Soft Power
Taurus, summer is all that’s on your mind! With work and studies taking up a majority of your time, you’re dreaming of a vacation or a getaway. Luckily, this acts as a motivator for you to get your tasks done swiftly and efficiently. With this in mind, you may be looking at a vacation or getaway in June. In the meantime, you’ll be focusing on household affairs and plans. Just remember not to get in over your head and narrow in on work too much like Xue Xing.
♊️ Gemini ♊️
(May 21 – June 20)
King Mongkut | The King and I
Look out Gemini, the energy of the May 5 Lunar Eclipse in Scorpio and your solar sixth house of health opposes Uranus in Taurus in your solar twelfth house of seclusion. Basically, beware of secret keepers. Be prepared for disclosures of secrets and new revelations in regard to your relationships and health. Take care of yourself, mentally and physically this month.
♋️ Cancer ♋️
(June 21 – July 22)
Kim | Miss Saigon
The quality and timeliness of communication improves for you this month, Cancer with Mercury going direct. You’re feeling braver and more expressive about your thoughts and opinions, similar to Kim. With the Taurus New Moon and the Lunar Eclipse in Scorpio, your romantic life may spark to life, as well.
♌️ Leo ♌️
(July 23 – August 22)
Lady Thiang | The King and I
Leo, this month emphasizes the role of coworkers in helping you accomplish your assignments, deadlines, and new initiatives at work. There’s a lot of positive change for you in the stars this May, but be prepared to feel a little torn at times. Additionally, with the Lunar Eclipse landing in Scorpio in your fourth house of home and family, you’ll be more passionate about family and your household relations, not unlike Lady Thiang’s journey. It'll be something wonderful.
♍️ Virgo ♍️
(August 23 – September 22)
Pi Patel | Life of Pi
So used to organization, Virgo, that if you have travel plans this month, be on the lookout for any mishaps. With the Lunar Eclipse in your third house of communication, which opposes Uranus in Taurus in your solar ninth house of travel, you might see revisions in travel plans or even delays. On the bright side, you probably won’t be at sea with a tiger for 227 days like Pi Patel.
♎️ Libra ♎️
(September 23 – October 22)
Imelda Marcos | Here Lies Love
Money talk dominates the conversation this month, Libra. May’s Lunar Eclipse is in your second house of income and resources opposed your eight house of joint income and debt. This could indicate a boost in your income such as a raise, or a swift lump sum of money heading your way. Be wise with this money and do not be quick to spend it all.
♏️ Scorpio ♏️
(October 23 – November 21)
MwE | KPOP
Following the Lunar Eclipse in your sign on May 5, you’ll attract the attention of individuals in your circle, as well as strangers seeking a place in your world. They’ll want to know what you have to offer, Scorpio. Doors will open and lead to more money and prestige, but beware of what may come with that. Keep in mind MwE’s journey, and don’t let others determine who or what you are.
♐️ Sagittarius ♐️
(November 22 – December 21)
Bloody Mary | South Pacific
May’s planetary activity could become erratic for you Sagittarius! With the Lunar Eclipse entering your 12th house of “behind-the-scenes” activities, you could get caught up in drama, love triangles and mysteries. This causes disruption in your daily routines but forces you to act as a guide or aid for others. Like Bloody Mary, you’ll be there for others and act as a messenger to those in need.
♑️ Capricorn ♑️
(December 22 – January 19)
Erzulie | Once On This Island
Personal relationships dominate your life this month, Capricorn. With multiple relatives competing for your time, and your workload piling up, you may feel like you’re not strong enough to handle it—but you are! When unplanned work initiatives demand your attention, channel Erzulie. Remain calm, compassionate, and be sure to devise a plan.
♒️ Aquarius ♒️
(January 20 – February 18)
Christmas Eve | Avenue Q
Venus turns on the charm in Gemini, and your solar fifth house of romance at the beginning of the month. Aquarius, if you’re already in a loving relationship like Christmas Eve, your home life will improve. And if you’re single, get ready for a little romance. Meanwhile, Jupiter in Aries races into your third house bringing growth, friendship, and new opportunities.
♓️ Pisces ♓️
(February 19 – March 20)
Kayama | Pacific Overtures
The energy of the Lunar Eclipse and your solar third house of communication going into Taurus could lead to a lot of miscommunication and unclear messages, Pisces. Unlike Kayama, make sure you’re over-communicating with loved ones and keeping them in the loop about your activities. Confusing phone calls and lack of conversation can lead to personal misunderstandings.
♈️ Aries ♈️
(March 21 – April 19)
Ojii-chan | Allegiance
Finally, a moment of peace for you, Aries. As Mercury moves direct on May 14, you’ll see your life and schedule fall into place. You’re more organized and focused than 2023 has made you thus far. Like Ojii-chan, your practical and levelheaded side will emerge this month. Family relations will improve, and you’ll welcome shared memories and moments with loved ones.
