Monthly Horoscope for May 2021

Summary for May 2021

Wow! Here we go for another warm weather season with its summer vacations and crop plantings. We begin this month not long after the Libra full Moon (April 26). Below-ground crops would be best planted the 5th or the 6th while above-ground crops can be sown on the 15th, 16th, 24th & 25th. Of course, in the north, most of these should be plants that don’t mind cold and/or a bit of frost; the general rule is to not sensitive varieties until after the last full Moon before Memorial Day. This occurs on May 26 this year.

See Best Days Timetable for planting crops and other activities, based on the Moon’s sign. 

We also have planet Jupiter—the largest planet in our solar system—exiting the sign of Aquarius and entering the sign of Pisces on the 13th. Look for all the arts to become more of a focus at least until the end of July when Jupiter retrogrades back into Aquarius.

Another Mercury retrograde period begins on May 29 and remains in this direction until late on June 22. Once again, it will be time to listen to our intuition, notice our surroundings in a new and different way and postpone major decisions, if possible. This is the time to re-do, re-work, re-arrange and renew. Taking time to pamper the self is an excellent thing to do during this transit. See 2021 Mercury Retrograde dates.
