Horoscopes
Aries
Today is a powerful day for reaching agreements with others, communicating, and sharing ideas with a receptive audience, dear Aries. Venus and Pallas come together in your sign today as they did at the beginning of April while Venus was retrograde. You can come to an agreement, or you might resolve a problem now that allows you to move forward. Your creative ideas and unique insight are appreciated, noticed, and perhaps even applauded by others now. Good feedback on your work or projects may be forthcoming. Connections and contacts made now can be particularly valuable and significant down the line. Your intelligence is playing a vital role in your considerable attractiveness right now.
Taurus
The Moon spends the day in your solar second house today, dear Taurus, and after the New Moon occurring in this sector yesterday, you’re feeling particularly motivated to take better care of your money, valuables, and business. Venus and Pallas come together in your privacy sector today, bringing resolve to a problem or reinforcing an agreement made almost two months ago. People seem ready to talk and cooperate, at least on a mental level, but you tend to prefer some level of privacy or confidence before expressing your ideas just for now. You can find exactly the right resources to resolve a conflict. Your private life or time with yourself is particularly rewarding and confidence-boosting now.
Gemini
You can be feeling quite pumped up today, dear Gemini, on this day after a New Moon in your sign. While you may be particularly eager to move projects forward, try not to be impatient or imprudent about doing so. Savor the moments and plan well. Fortunately, good energy is with you today for mapping out plans, making fruitful connections, and coming to agreements. You might meet particularly unique and interesting people now, or a new friend who introduces you to interesting ideas or groups. You can feel quite a bit of excitement about plans for the future. You might reconnect with people from your past now, or a problem that arose with a friend in April now comes back for handling. Fortunately, you’re in a better position to deal with it than you were back then. Talking through the trickier of issues and problems comes more easily today than usual.
Cancer
While you’re inclined to want to stay in the background these days, dear Cancer, and you benefit greatly from some time to yourself for renewal, today’s energies are quite magical for dealing with a public or professional matter. It’s also strong for making solid, well-designed plans for the future or your career. If you’ve had some challenges in working relationships or with bosses or parents, particularly in April while Venus was retrograde, progress can be made now on repairing, developing, and enhancing your connections. There is good energy with us for cooperating and allowing for multiple viewpoints. You might connect with people or information that helps you advance your goals.
Leo
You can be feeling particularly excited and even excitable about your new projects, ideas, contacts, and connections, dear Leo. You’re riding on a wave of good energy for looking forward to the future and enjoying the connections you’re making in the present. Today is also strong for making long-term plans related to travel, writing, and studies. A dilemma or predicament first met in April is now ready for a resolution, and while you’ve faced it before perhaps without much success, now you feel more equipped to approach the matter in an impartial, fair way. Sharing your ideas, viewpoints, and beliefs and listening to others’ experiences can be particularly inspiring and pleasant right now. You’re willing to take a fresh approach to teaching, guiding, learning, and communicating today.
Virgo
You’re likely to be feeling quite pumped about your work or goals today, dear Virgo, and you’re ready to take on a challenge. Watch for rushing things, as your eagerness may lead to some impatience. However, enjoy your strong feelings of enterprise and take advantage. There is good energy with you now for resolving conflicts or coming to agreements with others that truly work, largely because you’ve been down this path before and faced the same issues, but you’re now in a clearer, wiser position to come up with solutions to problems. Issues on the table are tricky, however, as they have to do with differences in values as well as power, sharing, and boundaries — perhaps even intimacy. However, you have all the tools at your disposal to work things out. Remaining fair and open-minded is the key.
Libra
Today is quite excellent for coming to agreements or resolutions to problems in your relationships, dear Libra. You’re dealing with reasonable, fair, and balanced people, or your unique approach to others brings out their sense of fairness. Debates, counseling sessions, consultations, brainstorming, and any other interpersonal problem-solving and decision-making can be wildly successful now. You are not only interested in coming to surface peace and harmony – you’re willing to go further with this and make sure that problems are handled more deeply. Making peace with a decision or situation from early April can figure strongly now for some of you. The Moon is in your adventure sector all day, stimulating your desire to break out of a mold or routine.
Scorpio
Today is potentially excellent for pleasing relations with co-workers or others with whom you share your day, dear Scorpio. You are particularly insightful when it comes to methods for doing your work, organizing, planning, and sorting right now. You can have a strong urge to redesign or redecorate your working or home environment. You might stumble upon new approaches and developments that help you improve your health or work skills, or enjoy pleasing connections with people while pursuing your routines and daily health or work goals. Helping others solve a problem can be in focus, and for some of you, your services are recommended or otherwise appreciated.
Sagittarius
Relationships continue to be in strong focus for you today, dear Sagittarius, and they’re particularly pleasant or productive. You can come to a new understanding of a situation, relationship, or project now, and news that was delayed since April may arrive, opening up doors for you. Love relationships benefit from a feeling of balance and mutual understanding. Creative design comes more easily now as you envision what you want to accomplish more readily than usual. Making long-term plans or mapping out a project may figure strongly. You might return to an interpersonal problem that first emerged while Venus was retrograde in April, now with new insight or clarity.
Capricorn
You’re riding on good energy for solving problems, getting details sorted, and seeing more deeply into matters today, dear Capricorn. You might come to a resolution to an issue that has evaded you for some time, and it can feel great to see things more clearly, whatever the outcome. Today also holds good energy for family relationships or improving the home environment through some form of a redesign. You see things a little more holistically now, and you may arrive at conclusions that on other days you easily miss or skip. If it would benefit you to come to an agreement with a loved one, this is a good day for pursuing one. You see the value in a more peaceful, smooth-running personal life and you’ll go to lengths to create it.
Aquarius
There is continued and perhaps more focused positive energy with you today for creative or romantic inspiration as you come off a New Moon in your solar fifth house and the Moon meets passionate Mars today, fueling your desires. You’re also in a fabulous position to come to agreements with others or to express yourself more eloquently in your communications. Friendships can thrive with a bit of extra attention now. You’re in a good position for organizing your daily affairs, projects, or studies, and with this better design, you feel more inspired to learn, connect, write, and share your ideas. People appreciate your viewpoint, intelligence, and insight, as well as your sense of fairness and impartiality. A problem or dilemma that arose in April while Venus was retrograde might re-emerge and now you’re ready to approach it again with more understanding and clarity.
Pisces
You may be particularly excited about moving on and turning over a new leaf in your home environment, personal life, or with family today, dear Pisces, although some conflict may be necessary before you can get to the root of a long-standing problem. Your desire is to restart or reboot and begin anew. Wiping the slate clean is not as immediate as you’d hoped, but is especially possible for you right now, so work hard to find answers. You’re also in a good position to sort out money or ownership problems today. There is a better chance that people cooperate and come to fair agreements today than usual. Problem-solving related to business or practical affairs is favored now.

Description: Transiting Venus Conjunction Transiting Pallas
We are especially concerned with being fair to one another. We seek out balance and peace in our relationships. The platonic elements of a relationship may be emphasized now. This can also be a very creative, artistic time.
Strong Signs, Elements, Modes
ARIES STRONG
Initiating, pioneering energy. Independent, bold, courageous, assertive, fiery, inspirational, direct, decisive. Can be egotistical, impulsive, impatient, aggressive, lacking subtlety.
GEMINI STRONG
Agile, versatile, inquisitive, flowing, conversational, airy, many ideas. Can be volatile, superficial, changeable, restless and inconsistent.
BALANCE OF ELEMENTS
AIR STRONG
We tend to favor rational, objective thought over emotions, impulses, and feelings at this time. We are more intellectual, fair-minded, and logical in our approach, Ideas flow easily and quickly, we are more communicative and guided by principles, and also somewhat dispassionate or impersonal.
WATER WEAK
There may be some insensitivity or lack of empathy now. We may be out of touch with what we’re feeling or with our emotional needs. We may be tougher than usual now, and more inclined to follow mental or practical considerations than we are to listen to our intuition.
BALANCE OF MODES
FIXED WEAK
We may be open to change but may not have much follow-through.
MUTABLE STRONG
We are flexible, adaptable, willing, open to change, and possibly flighty or nervous.
LUNAR PHASE: NEW MOON
Moon 0 to 45 degrees ahead of the Sun.
This is an energetic, impulsive, and subjective period of time. We are looking for new projects and opportunities.
The following aspects (major only) and positions are at noon (EDT) on May 26th:
Note that when an aspect is applying, it has not yet happened but is within orb – it’s pending. When an aspect is separating, it has already happened/perfected and is moving away from the aspect. Depending on the speed of the planet/body involved, the aspect will have perfected, or will perfect, in a matter of hours (often the case with the Moon), days, months, and possibly years in the case of the very slow-moving outer planets and bodies.
Note that the Moon moves at a rate of approximately one degree every 2 hours, so that if an aspect involving the Moon is applying and has an orb of 5 degrees, the aspect will perfect (be exact) in about 10 hours. If the Moon is separating from an aspect with an orb of 2 degrees, it has already formed said aspect approximately 4 hours ago (since the following are positions at noon today, then it would have occurred at about 8 AM today).
**I suggest paying close attention to applying aspects. The energy of the aspect builds as it gets closer to exact. Once an aspect involving inner planets has happened, it’s over. Separating aspects are good to know for context, but in terms of energy that is with us today, applying aspects are most important. (This is the case for daily astrology influences involving inner planets, which pass quickly, and not natal astrology aspects, which are with us for a lifetime).
