Monthly Money Astro Horoscope

Aries

Because the Sun will always spend the first three weeks of May in your income sector and the solar spotlight is always on your income situation, matters and options at this time of year, this will mask the fact that behind the scenes there has been a major shift. However, subtly, both you subconsciously and the planets moving through this month, will sense that and especially when it comes to a sense that you can't wait, that you need to pay attention or take action now. The difference this month isn't what is here and instead what isn't, with Uranus, who had been a guiding light for the last seven years, having left your income sector at the end of last month, not to return for another eight decades. While this ended the continuous year round planetary activity on the income front, because the Sun was here and Venus had just moved through, nothing dropped back and it was business as usual. However, this means that the faster planets will keep things active and the momentum going, but when they leave, this will end all planetary activity on the income front for the year. Fortunately, that won't happen until the end of next month and will be in the hands of Mars, the warrior planet of the cosmos when he returns on 19th May. This will be in the Sun's final days and with the benefit of the smart head for money Mercury will leave you with when he moves through from 3rd May to 17th May. The Moon will move through from 15th May to 17th May, ensuring your nose for money is sharp during Mercury's final days, ahead of Mars' return on 19th May and as the Sun gets ready to leave on 21st May. It is the New Moon on 17th May that can give income potential the green light just as Mercury leaves, but it is Mars' return on 19th May to begin his first war on income roadblocks and barriers, whether real or imagined in two years and as the last planet to return and to leave, that will kick off what could be the most lucrative six weeks of the year. Meanwhile, with no planets on the other side of the financial fence, having the Moon move through from 1st May to 3rd May is not just a chance to get an early read on money matters, but as a Full Moon will demand that they get some attention.

Taurus

While the Sun's return to your income sector on 21st May is the point in each year when the solar spotlight will always shift onto your income situation, matters and options, you not only begin the month with Venus and Uranus already here, but with a major sea change having just taken place that will have ongoing implications for years to come. Until Venus returned to your income sector on 24th April, there had been no planetary activity in either of your two money houses since Mercury left your financial sector in the New Year. While here for less than four weeks, as the planet of money, desire and attraction, Venus will be working to both make these some of the most potentially lucrative weeks of the year and set things up for the planets that will follow. It was two days later that Uranus also returned to your income sector, though not to spend a few weeks, but the next seven years acting as a guide while opening your mind to new possibilities and ways of thinking about or seeing things. Where Venus spent her early days here at a friendly aspect to Pluto and Juno in your career sector, where there is a growing desire to change things up, Mercury will do the same when he returns on 17th May with the smart head for money needed to get your head in the game and the Sun on 21st May, Uranus will spend the rest of the year bonding with them. With Uranus in your income sector until 2033 and Pluto in your career sector until 2044, this is the start of a powerful new partnership. The Moon's return from 17th May to 19th May is something that can act as a trigger, just as Venus will be working to make her final days as lucrative as possible. This is halfway between the Moon's return to your financial sector from 3rd May to 5th May and from its return on 31st May as a Full Moon. With no planets on this side of the financial fence, the side of the financial fence where it is more about what you do with and how you manage the money you have, it is important during this time to pay attention.

Gemini

On the one hand, it is business as usual, which means that Jupiter's quest for income growth and expansion that began when he returned to your income sector in June 2025 is still the dominant focus. This also means that with no planets in your financial sector, the side of the financial fence where it is more about what you do with and how you manage the money you have, the Moon's return from 6th May to 8th May is the only chance that you will get to check in on money matters. Until the Sun returns in December, these monthly visits are key to staying on top of money matters and especially with all the focus on the income side of the financial fence. However, as you move into the new month, it will be to find Jupiter still on his own in your income sector, but leaving at the end of next month, things are starting to become more urgent. Helping to get the month off to an empowered start on the income and job fronts will be the Moon's passage through your work sector from 1st May to 3rd May. This will create a Full Moon on 2nd May, the same day that it will also form a friendly aspect to Jupiter, that can jumpstart and energise things on the income and job fronts. However, it is two weeks later, when the Moon returns to your income sector from 19th May to 21st May, that everything will change. Not because of the Moon's return, but by happy coincidence it will return to sharpen your nose for money and act as a trigger on the same day that Venus not only returns to your income sector, but Jupiter moves into his final six weeks. The Moon will return 40 minutes after Venus' return, something that every four weeks can sharpen your nose for money and act as a trigger, but at almost the moment that the planets of money and luck will team up to bring Jupiter's quest for income growth and expansion home.

Cancer

On both sides of the financial fence, there is reason for confidence, though on one side because of what is happening now and on the other side, by what your sixth sense will be picking up on in the latter part of the month. It was last month that the asteroid Juno, the queen of commitment, in her first full month in your financial sector in four years, caught up and aligned with Pluto, the planet of change and transformation in your financial sector. Pluto is here until 2044 and while helping to change your attitude to money matters and even your financial situation, he is playing a long, slow game. Juno's return has sped up that process, with their alignment giving you the resolve to change things up. Normally here for just a few months, a retrograde turn next month means that she won't eventually leave until January 2027 and this was just the first of three alignments between now and then. This also means that Juno is in no hurry either and with Pluto turning retrograde on 7th May and as she is slowing down ahead of a retrograde turn next month, this is giving you time to go back and forward over the same spot. On the side of the financial fence where it is more about what you do with and how you manage the money you have, this is giving you a serious chance, over time, to take your financial power back. You will have a chance to check in on this and on money matters when the Moon moves through your financial sector from 8th May to 10th May. Meanwhile, it is two weeks later that the Moon will move through your income sector from 21st May to 23rd May. While an ordinary monthly visit and something that every four weeks can sharpen your nose for money and act as a trigger, apart from making these some of the most potentially lucrative days of the month, this is when your sixth sense will be picking up on developments ahead. While there has been no planetary activity in your income sector since last year, this last visit before Venus, the planet of money returns next month and with Jupiter returning at the end of June to begin your biggest year for income growth and expansion in over a decade, that is about to change.

Leo

When Mercury and Mars left your financial sector last month, they didn't just end the most active months of the year on this side of the financial fence, the side where it is more about what you do with and how you manage the money you have, but all planetary activity here for the rest of the year. Even when after 13 years, Neptune left last March and two months later after three years Saturn left, within months they were back and spent the final four months of 2025 here. With both gone and not coming back for decades, this ended a near continuous run of planetary activity stretching all the way back to Uranus' return in 2003. However, not only will the Moon continue to return every four weeks, with its return from 11th May to 13th May bringing a chance to check in on money matters, but the lunar nodes are continuing to monitor a balance between money coming in and money going out. While not planets or even physical bodies, from January 2025 to July 2026, located in your two money houses the lunar nodes, the point in the heavens where the Earth's orbit around the Sun is intersected by the Moon's orbit around the Earth will keep things balanced. Especially when moving through your two money houses each month, the Moon passes through this zone. Meanwhile, with no planetary activity in your income sector until the second half of the year but things kicking off in July and then running for the rest of the year, this allows for a firebreak or time to keep extracting what you have learned and gained on the other side of the financial fence and completely exhaust the potential created. By the time Venus returns to your income sector in early July, you will be on top of money matters as you are ever going to be. In the meantime, while you are waiting for a powering up of activity on the career front over the course of May and June is a chance to first get things up to speed professionally. This is something the Moon will help you exploit when it moves through your income sector from 23rd May to 25th May. While something that every four weeks can sharpen your nose for money and act as a trigger, this time with Mars in his early days in your career sector.

Virgo

While the Sun left your financial sector last month, the point when three weeks into April each year, this will take the solar spotlight off your financial situation and money matters, things are not only still active on the financial front, but you have reached what could be some of the most pivotal weeks of the year while also approaching a turning point in the financial year itself. You begin the month with six planets in your financial sector, the side of the financial fence where it is more about what you do with and how you manage the money you have and more than in any other area of your chart. However, there are two layers here and have been since early March, when as the first of the faster planets to return this year, Venus returned to begin the most active months of any year on the financial front. It was back in January that Neptune, the planet of hopes and dreams had returned to spend the next 13 years here, while teaming up with the dwarf planet Eris, the warrior planet of the cosmos who has been here for over nine decades and Chiron, the planet of wisdom, knowledge and healing, who has been here since 2019. These are planets that are playing a long game, as is Saturn, who returned in February to spend the next two years giving you the resolve to do whatever it takes for as long as it takes. Venus has long since moved on and the Sun has moved through, but until he leaves on 3rd May, Mercury is still here, giving you the smart head for money needed to keep your head in the game and to think on your feet. It is Mars, knowing that when he leaves on 19th May that he won't be back for another two years and this is when the reins will be handed to the planets playing a long game, who will be working to fire up your financial passions and fighting spirit. The Moon will give you a better sense of where to channel this when it moves through your financial sector from 13th May to 15th May. Meanwhile, with no planets in your income sector, the Moon's departure just as you move into the new month will give you a sharp nose for money from the start, before returning again to create the most potentially lucrative days of the month, from 26th May to 28th May.

Libra

Because the Sun will always spend the first three weeks of May in your financial sector, the solar spotlight is always on your financial situation and money matters at this time of year. This is the side of the financial fence where it is more about what you do with and how you manage the money you have, with the Sun able to make things more transparent and easier to get on top of money matters. However, two things set this apart from the normal focus on money matters at this time of year. The first is history and the second is legacy. When the Sun returned last month, Venus and Uranus were both in your financial sector, but within days they both left and that changed everything. While Venus was only here for 24 days, as the planet of money she has left you with a blueprint and with your financial desires, hopes and aspirations for the coming year already banked. However, the biggest game changer came two days later, on 26th May and after seven years acting as a guide and keeping money matters on the right track Uranus left, not to return for another eight decades. For now, apart from leaving you with a clear path forward, nothing has changed for the Sun is still here and until leaving on 29th May, the dwarf planet Ceres' deep dive into your financial situation and money matters will continue. However, this means that when the last of the faster planets leave, this will end all planetary activity on this side of the financial fence for the year. This is where the legacy comes in, for while the Sun will leave on 21st May and Mercury will race through from 3rd May to 17th May, for the first time in two years, Mars will return on 19th May to not only keep things going until the end of June, but to fire up your financial passions and fighting spirit and to exploit the momentum created over the last seven years. Meanwhile, with no planets on the income side of the financial fence, having the Moon return twice will create two periods that could be some of the most lucrative days of the month. The first is from 1st May to 3rd May as a Full Moon and then again from 28th May to 31st May. Each time, this will create positive conditions across the income, work and career fronts.

Scorpio

While it is the Sun's return to your financial sector on 21st May that will bring you to the point in the year when the solar spotlight will always shift onto your financial situation and money matters, as you move into the new month, for the first time this year it will be to find that things are already starting to move. Until the last week of April, there had been no planets on this side of the financial fence, the side where it is more about what you do with and how you manage the money you have all year and none in either of your two money houses since Mercury left your income sector in the New Year. Since then, it has been the Moon's monthly visits to both that have kept things on track. That changed when on 24th April Venus, the planet of money made an early return to your financial sector and as the first planet to return this year and gone by the time the Sun returns, with a chance to kick things off by updating your financial desires, hopes and aspirations for the coming year. Venus is only here until 19th May, but it was two days later that Uranus not only returned, but to spend the next seven years acting as a guide for money matters while opening your mind to new ways of thinking and even your whole relationship with money. It will be several months before Uranus is on his own and it becomes more about the big picture, with the most active months of this financial year stretching out in front of you. Before the Sun returns on 21st May, Mercury will return on 17th May with the smart head for money that can help you get your head in the game and to think on your feet, while on 29th May, the dwarf planet Ceres will return to begin her first deep dive into your financial needs and priorities in four years. Next year Mars, the planet of passion and the warrior planet of the cosmos will return for his first visit in two years. This will make the Moon's return from 17th May to 19th May more than just the ordinary monthly chance to check in on money matters. Meanwhile, with no planetary activity in your income sector, as the Moon moves through from 3rd May to 5th May, this can sharpen your nose for money and act as a trigger. These can be the most lucrative days of any month, but this might be trumped by the Moon's return on 31st May as a Full Moon.

Sagittarius

On the one hand, it is business as usual on both sides of the financial fence or at least for the first part of the month, while on the other hand, business as usual is looking pretty good. Business as usual means no planets in your income sector until the Sun returns in December, but with the Moon not only returning every four weeks, but the planets that had begun the year here are either already in your work sector, have already moved through or will be returning during the course of the month. When the Moon moves through your income sector from 6th May to 8th May, something that every four weeks can sharpen your nose for money, act as a trigger and can be the most lucrative days of any month, it will form a friendly aspect to the Sun, Mercury and the dwarf planet Ceres in your work sector as it passes through. This will make these some of the best days of the month on the income and job fronts. Meanwhile, it is on the other side of the financial fence that Jupiter, the planet of luck and expansion has moved into the final two months of his 12 month quest for financial growth and expansion. For the majority of the first three weeks of May, it is business as usual, until things abruptly take a turn for the better on 19th May. Within the space of 40 minutes, first Venus will return to your financial sector, followed by the Moon who will not only immediately align, but on the same day that Jupiter moves into his final six weeks. It is just as Venus and Jupiter, the planets of money and luck team up to bring things home that the Moon will return to ensure your financial instincts are sharp. Jupiter is ready to bring his quest for financial growth and expansion home and Venus is able to bring the laws of attraction into play while giving you a better sense of what you want to achieve.

Capricorn

It should be a relatively slow and predictable month on the income side of the financial fence and not the injection of excitement that began last month. When the last of the faster planets left your income sector in March, this left Pluto, the planet of change and transformation on his own, but unlike last year, when this left him on his own for the rest of the year and here until 2044 he is playing a long game, it didn't stay that way. With Pluto turning retrograde on 7th May, things should be quietening down even more, but instead this is a chance to put at least some of your focus onto the past, second chances and untapped income potential. Two events have changed everything, one at the end of March and the other in the last week of April. It was at the end of March that the asteroid Juno, the queen of commitment returned to your income sector for the first time in four years and to meet up with Pluto here for the first time in our lifetime. Normally, Juno would be here for two to three months at most, but a retrograde turn next month means she won't eventually leave until January 2027. This also means that their alignment last month, which has already created the resolve to change things up, was just the first of three between now and November. The second event was Venus and Uranus' return to your work sector at the end of April, kicking off the first planetary activity on the job front this year. Venus has already formed a friendly aspect to both Juno and Pluto, but for Uranus this is the start of something that will shape the coming years. With Pluto in your income sector until 2044 and Uranus in your work sector until 2033, this is the start of a partnership that will shape the coming years. When the Moon moves through your income sector from 8th May to 10th May, it will align with Juno and Pluto while forming a friendly aspect to Venus and Uranus, making this some of the most potentially lucrative and positive days of the month on the income and job fronts. Meanwhile, with no planetary activity on the other side of the financial fence in, the Moon's return to your financial sector from 21st May to 23rd May will be a chance to check in on money matters.

Aquarius

While there are no planets in either of your two money houses and just the lunar nodes and the Moon's monthly visits helping to keep things on track and balanced, each side has the kind of support that allows for just that. It was last month that Mercury and Mars left your income sector, ending the most active months of any year on the income side of the financial fence. Because after 13 years Neptune left in January and after three years Saturn a few weeks later, there are no outer planets working behind the scenes that can keep things active all year. For the first time since 2003, this ended all planetary activity on the income front for the rest of the year. However, with decades of momentum and experience under your belt and until leaving in January, with the North Node continuing to provide a lucrative sense of direction. Along with its partner, the South Node in your financial sector, the lunar nodes are helping to maintain a balance between money coming in and money going out, but they aren't planets or even physical bodies. Instead, the lunar nodes are the point in the heavens where the Earth's orbit around the Sun is intersected by the Moon's orbit around the Earth, creating a gravitational pull that always in opposition keeps each other balanced. While the North Node is able to provide a lucrative sense of direction looking forward, on the other side of the financial fence, the South Node is more focused on the road behind and on learning as you go. It is when the Moon passes through your two money houses, which it will do every four weeks, that as well as a better read on that side of the financial fence, puts their monitoring of a balance between money coming in and money going out in the spotlight. That will be the case when the Moon moves through your income sector from 11th May to 13th May, creating what could be some of the most lucrative days of the month. Then two weeks later, the Moon will move through your financial sector from 23rd May to 25th May, with a chance to check in on money matters.

Pisces

While the Sun left your income sector last month and Venus, the planet of money has long since moved through, you begin the month with six planets still here and all with a different influence, agenda and time frame. At the same time, there are two overlapping layers in play, something that will become more obvious later in the month. On one layer you have Neptune, the planet of hopes and dreams who returned in January to spend the next 13 years in your income sector, Saturn who returned two weeks later to spend the next two years giving you the resolve to do whatever it takes for as long as it takes, the dwarf planet Eris, the warrior planet of the cosmos who has been here for over nine decades and Chiron, the planet of wisdom, knowledge and healing, who has been here since 2019. These are the planets that are playing a long game while on another layer and also with the loudest and more attention grabbing level are Mercury and Mars. Until leaving on 3rd March, Mercury is giving you the smart head for money needed to keep your head in the game and to think on your feet, as well to make short term or more immediate choices, decisions or plans. Knowing that when he leaves on 19th May, he won't be back for another two years, Mars will be throwing everything he has into the final weeks of his war on income roadblocks and barriers, whether real or imagined. Helping with that will be the Moon's return from 13th May to 15th May, something that every four weeks can sharpen your nose for money, act as a trigger and can be the most lucrative days of any month. Meanwhile, with no planets on the other side of the sky in your financial sector, the Moon's monthly visits are key to checking in on and staying on top of money matters. The Moon is just leaving your financial sector as you move into the new month, ensuring your financial instincts are sharp from the start, before returning again from 26th May to 28th May.
