Spring Forecast
Horoscopes for May & June 2012
Mars continues to stay in Virgo, though now it’s running direct and Venus has an unusually long transit in Gemini (until August 8th). We can expect the pace of our days to increase as we aspire to get through to-do lists and deal with day-to-day issues! This is a high time to get busy and make progress. Increased communications, both personal and professional, are likely as we get a clearer picture of what is expected of us. Connecting with siblings, neighbors, colleagues, and like-minded people will enrich our world. This is also an excellent time for inspired learning, and detailed research!
ARIES
You have a deeper sense of what you value in life, Aries. It’s likely that you recently made an investment; be that in your home, a business, your education, or possibly a relationship. Over the next few months you will be pushing past social boundaries (You, push past a boundary?) and making your immediate community not only more interesting, but more harmonious as well. (This is an excellent time to extend an olive branch if need be.) Regardless, you will find yourself connecting with others and delighting in what in you learn. This is a good time to hit the books, take classes, and increase your knowledge base in some way. Short trips, social outings, community events, and parties are stimulating!
