Horoscopes
Aries
Venus begins transiting your solar fourth house today, and will continue to do so for almost a month – until June 5th. While this is not the most openly expressive period for your feelings and affections with the rest of the world, Aries, it is a strong time for connecting with family. You may have a special eye for decorating, redecorating, and home improvement. You might find more joy in, or bring more entertaining and pleasurable energy to, your family and home life. You may be looking at real estate or renovations and new designs. You are likely looking for more comfort, beauty, love, and harmony in the home environment, and unlikely to be seeking out greener pastures in matters of the heart.
Taurus
Venus moves into your communications sector for a stay of almost a month, Taurus. You are taking more pleasure in daily affairs, connecting with old or new friends, exploring mental interests and topics, learning new things, and so forth. Love and communications are connected strongly during this cycle that lasts until June 5th, and this can mean an emphasis on communicating with friends and lovers, meeting people with similar intellectual interests with you or finding love through the computer, phone, or learning environments, as well as more charm when it comes to expressing your ideas. You could find yourself in the role of a mediator. Benefits can come through siblings, classmates, and short trips. Today is good for changing up the routine and chance meetings.
Gemini
Today, Venus begins its transit of your solar second house, leaving your sign and entering Cancer, dear Gemini. This cycle lasts until June 5th, and brings a nice, steadying energy to your affections. It also stimulates your practical eye and natural sense of balance. You are especially interested in feeling comfortable and secure. Finances and social or relationship matters can be strongly related right now. While you are attracted to luxurious things, you are also interested in keeping life in balance, so that you are unlikely to go overboard when it comes to spending. Love could be a little quieter, but also more stable or status quo.
Cancer
With Venus entering your sign today, Cancer, you are beginning a rather pleasant, attention-getting cycle that lasts until June 5th. Increasingly, you’ve been more inclined to need extra time to yourself, so that this Venus move is interesting. People are finding you especially attractive and pleasant, but there is also a sense that you are holding back (and you probably are). This cycle brings your desire for pleasure to the fore – you may want to pamper yourself, primp and embellish your appearance in some manner, or spend extra time on yourself and your needs and wants. While it may not be the most disciplined time for you, it is certainly a period for carrying yourself with more confidence and warmth.
Leo
Venus enters the last sector of your solar chart today, Leo, and will continue to influence this house until June 5th. This can either be a quieter time for your love life, a time of endings, or simply an inclination to keep your feelings or relationships private. There can be discontent if your social or romantic life has been unsatisfying. It can also be a time for helping others and making some personal sacrifices in order to support people you love. Some of you could be longing for something, or someone, that is a little out of reach. When it comes to money and love, you may be going over the past and taking more time to come to conclusions or decisions. These things may not be very straightforward during this cycle.
Virgo
Today, Venus begins her transit of your ideals and friendship sector, Virgo, and will continue to influence this house of your solar chart until June 5th. You are more inclined to want to smooth over differences, if there are any, with friends and enjoy yourself through group activities or simply seeking out the company of like-minded people. There is more grace, charm, diplomacy, and pleasantness with friends or your community. You may be a little more detached, perhaps just enough to facilitate enjoying yourself in new situations. Camaraderie is especially important in your love life and your social life now.
Libra
Venus begins its transit of your reputation and profession sector today, Libra, where she will stay until June 5th. You may be coming off especially well in professional or public settings during this cycle. There may be social or romantic opportunities through business or other more formal functions. Your creative vision and/or diplomacy or people skills can be on show or recognized, and possibly more often drawn upon in the work you do at this time. This sector of your chart will host more and more planets in the coming weeks, putting new emphasis on career or life-path matters. For now, you’re putting out friendly feelers in these areas. Today, there’s a little bit of magic in all that you do, and people are noticing you for your more unique qualities.
Scorpio
Today, Venus begins transiting your solar ninth house, Scorpio, and will continue to influence this area of your chart until June 5th. During this cycle, your ideals about love, and possibly also money, are set high. While Venus is now transiting in harmony with your sign and this improves your personal appeal, you are also less likely to tolerate lingering problems in relationships. However, this can also be a time when you are inspired by someone, when you meet a person who has exciting ideas and helps to expand your mind, when you go on a new trip or adventure, or otherwise enjoy a pleasant mind-expanding experience. You tend to do well in newer, less routine situations, particularly romantically and socially, but this can also apply to business, shopping, and other practical matters.
Sagittarius
Venus enters an intimate, complex sector of your chart today, Sagittarius, and will influence this house until June 5th. This pulls up important themes of passion, attachment, and intensity in your love life or relationship with yourself. You more easily attract support or resources from others, and you can be more involved with others’ resources and talents. This may be a good time for a spouse’s finances or a situation in which you pool your resources with someone. If you need to ask for a loan or smooth over differences about financial or intimate matters, this can be the best time of the year to do so.
Capricorn
The Moon emerges in your chart this afternoon, Capricorn, making it a very good time to take a personal inventory of your emotional needs and any recently buried or overlooked feelings. It’s perfectly appropriate now and in the next two days to embrace your emotions and find new or improved ways of expressing them. Venus moves into your partnership sector today, where she will transit until June 5th. This is one of the more hospitable, relationship-oriented periods of the year, when you tend to attract warm, pleasant, or helpful people into your life, and when you are especially attentive to others’ needs and wants.
Aquarius
Today, Venus begins its transit of your work and health sector, Aquarius, and while it’s not the most glamorous placement for the goddess of love, there are some very pleasing aspects to it. It’s a time for finding more balance and enjoyment in your daily life, including your work. You could be forming friendships or possibly love connections on the job, or simply finding ways to relate better or pretty up your day to day life and work environment. For some, this can be a lazier or less attentive time for getting work done. There could be attractions on the job or while pursuing your work, chores, or health routines. Today, you are standing out for your helpfulness and good humor, particularly in work environments, but personally as well.
Pisces
Venus moves into fellow Water sign, Cancer, today, dear Pisces, and this cycle is good news for romantic, creative, and to some degree, financial affairs. Until June 5th, your more flirtatious, entertaining, and appealing qualities are emphasized. People more readily notice your attractiveness, and you are inclined to splurge a little more than usual not only on yourself but for dates, dinners out, entertainment, and gifts. You tend to feel good and it shows! People with similar interests tend to more readily gravitate towards you, and you may be turning heads. It’s a good time for creative pursuits, interviews, dates, and other events that rely heavily upon your natural talents and positive traits for success.

The following aspects (major only) and positions are at noon (EDT) on May 7th:
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 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 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 life time).
