WEEKLY HOROSCOPES
Your Weekly Horoscope
May 12-18, 2025
I’m always interested in new reading spreads for Tarot and Oracles. Ian Dury’s Reasons to be Cheerful Part Three is a good one. For Dury and his Blockheads, it was ‘Generosity and politeness, yellow socks and carrot juice.’
Give yourself two reasons to be cheerful this week by asking the Tarot and Modern I Ching on this website – right now here. ‘What are my two reasons to be cheerful now and until Sunday?’ Prepare to be cheered up!
Aries – You go into late May 2025 with the ability to take back control (one more time) for the rest of the year. This is about your friend. It’s also about your friend’s circles (plural). You have had one challenge after another, but you have found a way to make your social life work for you now. It’s the same with social media like Substack or Bluesky. You’ve figured out machinations upon machinations.
As you worked hard to empower yourself socially with people over the last few weeks, you may wake up to find yourself in a position of power. You have then been on the Pluto slippery dip and found yourself being disempowered by people, groups or organisations, too. Every time you gave back the reins to others, you helped yourself over the long haul, Aries, as you will discover this week.

Taurus – Understanding power and people politics has been part of your life for such a long time that it will come as a relief to know you have passed the first set of hoops – and not just from 2023 and 2024. It may have been your entire industry or business with Pluto in Aquarius – as you have no doubt seen all kinds of high-handed power-tripping over the last few weeks by those who do not want to relinquish their hold.
Here’s a warning for some people in your career, academic career or unpaid roles though – he who tries to go for world domination tends to end up as a running joke. If you believe in Power To The People, you may well have been up against those who just want power for themselves in your chosen domain. You may even have taken a knock because of it in 2023 or 2024. Well, this week will reassure you. In fact, it may do a lot more than that depending on how long-term your ambition actually is. This could be an incredible restart, Taurus.

Gemini – With Neptune, Saturn and Chiron all in your sector of social media and your social life from the end of May 2025, the future belongs to your circle of allies and friends – all of whom come from completely different walks of life, but all of whom want to walk the same path. For you, if that happens to open doors to a different way of doing things, so much the better.
The First House of self-promotion, title, appearance, reputation and packaging is also triggered from July. So, looking further ahead, what happens with the group (or your friend) is also about your face and name later on. There’s a certain isolation about that because, at the end of the day, you have to be all about yourself and very much in it for yourself too. Upfront. Front-and-centre. On the front line. Yet, Gemini, you are also being shown how to reboot friendships, join new groups, relaunch old groups and so on – and that will make you feel connected.

Cancer – The end of May 2025 sees a sign-off from a very long waiting game for you as Saturn quits Pisces and leaves your Ninth House. Some restrictions have involved foreigners, foreign countries or just foreign cultures in your own country. It may be Israel if you are British (for example) or Taiwan if you are Australian. It really depends on who and what you think of as being foreign to you even if the language is the same (which can happen). Perhaps, it’s been the Commonwealth – it can be a collection of nations. One issue goes away to be replaced by another. Or perhaps you have the same thing ebbing and flowing. Now, you will see or hear evidence that things are shifting. Saturn is about obstacles. Well, not for much longer.

Leo – It’s not often you see Chiron, Neptune and Saturn all lining up in Aries in your Ninth House of foreign countries – but it’s on the way from the end of May 2025. There is also the issue of other cultures in your own country, of course. Now, you may well find that this week shows you alternative ways to get what you want or need. If you tried something that failed before – think about a parallel path.
The Ninth House also rules digital and traditional publishing. You may be writing a memoir, dealing with the vagaries of the web or just sorting out your newsletter. Leo, you are in the cycle which astrology links to publishing in all its forms. This includes your dealings with publishers in terms of other people’s books too. It’s amazing how powerful a paperback can be or how potent a couple of sentences on Substack can be. And these two Ninth House themes may overlap, so this may be about foreign books for example.

Virgo – This Uranus in Taurus cycle now which urges you to break away and break free again, also rules your own travel agenda, your own life as a tourist or business traveller – or migrant. What classically happens on a long Uranus transit (you have had this since 2018) is that your success is measured in the respect you have for the locals own need for independence and freedom. This also applies to other cultures or nationalities where you live. Uranus is about space on all sides.
You’ve been tested, Virgo, but if you go on testing yourself too, you’ll pass these other more cosmic tests. There are astrological rules about these things. You don’t really get away with pushing for your own autonomy and ‘Independence Days’ unless you extend the same privilege to others.

Libra – You already have some wins on the board with your need for freedom with your bank account, house, investment, apartment, business, charity and valuables. You also have one thorn in your side to fix, Libra. Uranus in Taurus in your Eighth House of joint finance and property can feel like that. You can’t really grow in all directions and break free until you’ve completed some pruning.
This has been a really long cycle (starting in May 2018) which should ring a few bells with you right to the end – which is July 2025. You have seen it all in that time including 2020 (COVID’s arrival) and now 2025 itself (Donald’s malarkey). Everything big has had a ripple effect on all that you earn, own or owe. The takeaway this week is that if you want to be free, then you have to do something radical.

Scorpio – It is important to own your power with the household or family circle and not be diminished in any way by those who are fooling around with the controls (or you) and trying to take it away from you – or run it differently with each other. If you’ve not already woken up to that, then this week is the time.
The golden rule with this transit is to understand that Pluto rules Scorpio and Pluto is now in Aquarius in your Fourth House of family dynamics. So, you have to understand the intensity of relationships – particularly marriage, which is ‘until death do us part’ as well as ‘for richer, for poorer.’ Honouring that intensity and understanding the edge is part of the path. Then, there are your children. The in-laws. Grandparents, aunts and uncles. It goes on. Pluto can come from anywhere and yet, as always, the key is self-control to give you control and willpower to empower you.

Sagittarius – Jupiter enters Cancer in June 2025 and your Eighth House of joint finance and property. Opportunities and solutions are around the corner and there are signs this week. Sagittarius, there is Wall Street and then there is your street. After years of Pluto in your Second House, you have created your own life budget and soon you can take steps to be true to who and what is priceless to you. You have non-negotiables to attend to this week because there’s more to life than money. Of course. Yet, June and July may be showing in your diary in terms of the bank, charity, insurance, house, apartment and so on.
If you have been ‘Plutoed’ by anyone who has basically been having a lend (as they say in Australia), then you will have the satisfaction of watching them be “hoist by their own petard” as they say in Shakespeare. This goes right back to the whole Pluto cycle in your finance and property sector, Sagittarius, which ran from 2008 – 2024. Things may be coming full circle for quite a few people born under your sign. It starts in June and is evident now.

Capricorn – You are now at a point where you can give yourself a far more hopeful plan for your duet, marriage, partnership or other pairing. It will actually take from June 2025 to June 2026 for you to get what you want and need – no matter if it’s a commitment or an amicable separation. Yet, with Jupiter poised to enter your opposite sign of Cancer, all the gates are starting to slowly creak open.
There may be a bigger shared goal in a professional partnership too so that you have your sights set on something that would vindicate the pair of you – likely in June or July. A work partnership or even a platonic duet of sorts (two people who live together yet have separate bedrooms) is also a sure sign of Jupiter on the move – in the right direction. This week is prep time. Prepare the ground. Enrich and enhance the environment around you so that from early June, you can go straight in.

Aquarius – Total control over your appearance, identity, name, face, shape and reputation is rather elusive. Looking counterclockwise – do you know the classic 1979 song by the Motels? The fact is – if you have been in any kind of mirror reflection or Google reflection these last few months, you have been living with someone/something who /which wants total control. Quite often. Regularly. Maybe, that’s why you’ve been doing what you know will be about you and not them (not her or him either).
This week it all comes to land for you, Aquarius, as Pluto in Aquarius in your First House of first impressions makes waves in your chart. Managing Pluto is really about being honest with yourself. If you are not going to get what you want from the internet or media (because of his, their or her agenda), then you have to at least ask yourself exactly what you are getting out of it. Or not. Pluto transits can seem like ‘forever,’ but actually there is an end point with a relaunch next January or February 2026 (your birthday). Perhaps, you’ve had this planned for ages. Maybe you don’t know about it yet, but your horoscope does.

Pisces – Karma calls when the South Node goes into Virgo as it has done since the start of the year. The bigger picture of any disputes (even ongoing) is that if you ruffle feathers or even stare down what other people consider to be their turf or territory, you are going to face the karmic consequences in another 18-19 years. That is a huge lesson from the last cycle which also took place 18-19 years ago. Ring any karmic bells?
The more elevated spiritual response to this is to see other people’s karma as your own. You will see reassuring signs this week that enable you to turn things around and gain closure. The Virgo South Node in your Seventh House is also about partners – be they professional or personal. So, your work other half or your husband (say). The karma is also here with that. So, if you feel as if you’ve heard it before or seen it before – you have. Maybe with another person entirely, but again – going back 18 or 19 years in time.
