May 2025 offers an exciting mix of clarity, fresh ideas, and deeply rooted changes for you, Pisces Rising. You’re exploring new ways of thinking, managing your finances, reworking your values, and reconnecting with your inner foundations. With powerful planetary activity in your 2nd house of self-worth and money, your 3rd house of communication and learning, and your 4th house of home and family, this month feels like a journey from the mind to the heart to the roots.
The focus this month is on finding stability—both emotionally and practically—while giving yourself permission to shift your thinking, speak your truth, and reimagine your sense of home.
Let’s dive into what the stars are bringing your way.
Early May: Dreamy Starts and Gentle Grounding
We begin May with a poetic and idealistic tone as Venus meets Neptune on May 2nd in Aries, your 2nd house of money, possessions, and values. Venus loves being in this house, and when she links up with Neptune—your ruling planet—there’s a sense of magic and hope around finances, beauty, and self-worth. You might be dreaming up a new way to earn income, romanticising your values, or investing in something that feels soulful. Just be mindful of illusion—Neptune can blur the facts. Be creative, but don’t skip the fine print.
Then on May 4th, Pluto stations retrograde in Aquarius, activating your 12th house of the subconscious, healing, and solitude. This is a long-term, introspective transit that invites you to explore your inner world. Over the coming months, you may peel back old layers of fear or self-sabotage that have been holding you back quietly in the background. It’s powerful behind-the-scenes work that strengthens your emotional resilience and spiritual grounding.
On May 7th, Mercury conjoins Chiron in Aries, also in your 2nd house. This is a healing moment around self-worth and how you speak about or value yourself. You might reflect on past wounds related to money, confidence, or your voice. It’s a good time to gently rewrite the story you tell yourself about what you’re worth—because you are more than enough.
Mid-May: Mindset Shifts & New Foundations
Mercury enters Taurus on May 10th, activating your 3rd house of communication, learning, and local environment. This brings a more practical tone to your thoughts and conversations. It’s a great time to get grounded in your daily routines, revisit how you express yourself, or have down-to-earth conversations that bring clarity. If you’re writing, learning something new, or just need to make a plan—this transit is helpful and steady.
Then comes a powerful moment of emotional release on May 12th, as the Full Moon in Scorpio lights up your 9th house of beliefs, higher learning, and long-distance travel. Something may come to a head around a course, philosophy, or worldview that you’ve outgrown. You could have an emotional realisation about your life direction or how far you’ve come in your journey. This is a beautiful time to let go of outdated ideas and open yourself to new mental horizons.
On May 17th, things may take a surprising turn as the Sun conjoins Uranus in Taurus, again in your 3rd house. Expect flashes of insight, unexpected conversations, or changes in your local environment. If you’ve felt stuck in your thinking, this could be the breakthrough you’ve been waiting for. Be open to new perspectives—even (especially!) the unconventional ones.
Late May: Home, Voice, and Grounded Growth
The pace picks up on May 20th, when the Sun enters Gemini, shining its light on your 4th house of home, family, and emotional foundations. Your attention turns to your private world—where you live, who you live with, and how secure you feel emotionally. You may find yourself spending more time at home, reconnecting with family, or simply craving a sense of rootedness.
This theme continues and intensifies with several planetary movements in this part of your chart. On May 24th, Mercury conjoins Uranus in Taurus once more, bringing a bolt of genius or surprise around communication—maybe with siblings, neighbours, or in your learning environment. Or you could receive news that reshapes your plans around home and stability.
Then on May 25th, Saturn enters Aries, also landing in your 2nd house. Over the next couple of years, Saturn will help you solidify your values, become more financially disciplined, and build a stronger sense of self-worth. This isn’t the “overnight success” kind of energy—it’s slow, steady, and intentional. But that’s what makes it so powerful. You’re building the kind of inner and outer security that lasts.
Mercury enters Gemini on May 26th, joining the Sun in your 4th house. This opens up a period of important family conversations, home-related planning, or journaling around your emotional roots. It’s a great time to get curious about what “home” really means to you and how you can make it feel more nourishing, functional, and aligned with your evolving self.
May 27th: A New Chapter at Home
The New Moon in Gemini on May 27th offers a fresh start in your 4th house. This is a beautiful time to set intentions around your living space, emotional security, or family relationships. Are you thinking about moving, renovating, or simply changing the energy in your home? This is the time to start envisioning what that might look like. More than anything, this New Moon invites you to lay a new foundation—one that feels mentally and emotionally safe, spacious, and clear.
And to close out the month, the Sun meets Mercury in Gemini on May 30th, lighting up a powerful conversation or realisation. You may gain deep clarity about your needs, your past, or where you belong. This is a wonderful time for honest talks with family members or self-reflection that helps you integrate everything you’ve been processing.
