WEEK OF May 20 – 26, 2024
Take a minute before Gemini season begins on Monday, May 20, to do a quick inventory of your life. Once the Sun leaves Taurus and your twelfth house of endings and healing, you’ll be ready to turn the page and start writing a new chapter. But first, tick off (or release) anything you don’t want to carry into your personal new year. From thrift store donations to toxic relationships to unhealthy emotional patterns, clear ’em out. If something hasn’t worked out by now, it’s time to create an effective strategy to change it. Gemini season is your annual cycle to put YOU first and shore up your intention to grow in the coming year. But don’t lock yourself into any one thing. Over the next month, your tastes and interests could change on a daily basis.
As the original Twinning sign, you’re keenly focused on partnerships. This Thursday, the year’s only Sagittarius full moon lands in your seventh house of relationships—AND Venus joins the Sun in your sign—intensifying your animal magnetism until June 17. This supercharged vibe will be palpable over the next two weeks, setting up a twosome frequency that can help you find your missing puzzle piece or stabilize a wobbly union. Whether for business or romance, these high-powered moonbeams could shine a light on a potential collaborator. Don’t settle for “good enough” when you could magnetize someone who makes you swoon. You don’t have to rush to put a ring on it or sign a legally binding contract, but it’s good to know the other party has skin in the game. Â
On Saturday, jet-setting Jupiter joins the Sun and Venus in your sign, catapulting your dreams into orbit. Jupiter will lend its expansive energy until June 9, 2025, and since it only visits your sign every 12 years, you want to make the most of this. Suddenly you’ll be fired up to take the initiative and direct your life in a more purposeful way. Your days may be busier than they’ve been in a while, but you’ll feed off the excitement. This may lead you to become more efficient because you’ll see that time really is money! Being uber-focused is a change of pace, and you might feel disoriented shifting gears in this way.
The need to regain your sense of self may become irresistible, and no matter what your relationship status, you are ready to pursue your autonomous interests. Absence can make the heart grow fonder, but if you’ve been unhappily partnered or married, now is the time to deal. In some cases, a temporary—or permanent—separation may be in order. Before you do anything irreversible, however, look at the role you’ve played. Healthy boundaries may have been impossible to uphold. So quit playing “happy helper” or “martyr” in your relationship and pursue your passions without apology. You may be surprised at how supportive bae can be. In some cases, it will be worth giving it one last shot before you call it quits. If you’re single, enjoy your freedom. If you’re being honest, you might realize you don’t feel like being tied down right now.
