Aries – Reaching your full potential on many fronts
Credit: Kerry King
Love & Relationships: The World
Everything is coming to fruition in this area of your life and yielding the full potential of its promise.
Expect proposals, deep friendship and fellowship, fertility, bonding, new romances, and maybe a few endings or conclusions too (ones that feel natural and very much a part of the whole picture). Look
out for Capricorns, this is a sign you can vibe with this May.
Work & Purpose: Six of Coins
Be super generous (as you always are) with colleagues or those you're undertaking projects or schemes with. Give your time, energy, ideas, and resources. You won't 'run out', the act of generosity is actually a signal to the Universe that you'd also like to receive… and so you shall!
Unexpected offers, invites, opportunities, and windfalls are heading your way.
Omen to look out for: The Devil
Look for the number one or five, or repeats of both. Look for Capricorns, worldly and sophisticated people with something (that feels too good to be true) to offer. Look out for a situation where you feel sorely tempted to do something you know (deep down) you
shouldn't. If you notice one of these omens then you're being nudged to consider the long-term consequences of your actions and choices. Can you live with them? If so, jump in. If not, resist.
Taurus

Taurus – Being spontaneous and reactive will bring the best rewards
Credit: Kerry King
Love & Relationships: The Fool
Start with a clean slate in your relationship realm this May. Start with the best of intentions for all and all transgressions written off. Give second chances. Be open-minded. It's likely that many relationships will reboot back to full strength. And that you'll meet a lot of new faces too- especially a meaningful Aquarian. You're ready for a change of energy and dynamics, and you will get it! All change. All new. All fresh.
Work & Purpose: Three of Wands
Don't overthink your career path or projects this May. Simply do what's needed and see what else the Universe brings to you. Don't try and force or overly control situations. Work with what is right in
front of you, vs what you wish were there. Seize the moment and react to reality. When you zoom in on what's already there, you're already halfway through delivering! Taurus should adopt a more spontaneous approach and reap success.
Omen to look out for: Four of Cups
Look for the number four or repeats of it. Look for empty or hollow vessels, cups, vases etc… objects you'd expect to be filled but which are not. Look out for people, places or options that have always been open and available to you but you've never partaken of. If you notice one of these omens then you're being asked to give something (or someone) right in front of you a chance. You're overlooking something…
Gemini

Gemini - Use your mind and you'll win every battle

Love & Relationships: Justice
Be kind, Gem, and play nice. Do the right thing by folk (including by yourself) and follow your own moral compass, even if others appear to have abandoned theirs. Karma sees every move. Please her and she will reward you down the line! Your bonds with others are built on trust and respect, so treat people as you wish to be treated yourself, and all will be well. Look out for Librans with big opinions. Listen but don't necessarily follow them.
Work & Purpose: The Lovers
The Lovers is Gemini's tarot card which implies you can really make headway this May and do something successful that represents a core talent, skill, or interest of yours. Play to your strengths, amplify your successes, show off what you can do. Don't doubt yourself, don't play it all down. You are a fascinating, creative, intellectual maverick! Go show folk how valuable an asset you are.
Omen to look out for: Four of Wands
Look for the number four or repeats of it. Look for heroic journeys, stories, characters or symbolism. Stuff that catches your throat, makes you feel proud and moved. Look out for situations that would allow you to rise, to progress, to fulfil a lifelong ambition. If you notice one of these omens then you're being shown the gateway to the 'next level' in your career or personal development ambitions. Stride through it!
Cancer

Cancer – Nip niggles in the bud and showcase your creativity and strength
Credit: Kerry King
Love & Relationships: Five of Wands
Nip things in the bud that don't feel right or that you do NOT want to experience more of. Be on alert for early signs of discontent, disagreement, or distance, and act on them, address them, get
clarity before the signals intensify. All that's being shown is the need for something to change, so the sooner you get to what that is, the sooner you can work together to sort it out. And resume loving
relations!
Work & Purpose: Page of Cups
Bring your marvellous creative mind to the foreground in work or your personal projects this May. Show people how imaginative you can be. Even in the driest or more process-driven areas, you can
still add your Cancerian flair and come up with inventive ways to do stuff, upgrade the task, add interest or intrigue, gamify the actions, create interpersonal dynamics. You are great at this kind of 'extra', showcase it and be valued for it.
Omen to look out for: Strength
Those with a Cancer star sign should look for the number eight, or repeats of it. Look for apex predators like lions, tigers, crocodiles, bears, sharks (hopefully not in real life!). Look out for opportunities to test yourself and prove something to those that doubt or don't 'get' you. If you notice one of these omens then you're about to do something that builds your personal self esteem, shows folk what you can do, and gets you into a stronger position for the future.
Leo

Leo – You're needed and valued by those in your realm
Credit: Kerry King
Love & Relationships: King of Coins
People need you, people value you, people rely on your presence, counsel, strength, and support to get through. Feel good about it and wield this power wisely. Be there (but take time for yourself and
ask for the help you need too). You are a credit to your family and friends. If you're looking for romance, then a rock-solid Earth sign (Capricorn, Virgo, Taurus) who is successful, wealthy and wise is on the cards.
Work & Purpose: Two of Swords
Decision time. Crunch time. Leo, you need to make a really important choice this May and you've been kinda' hedging around it for a while. It's time to pick an option and proceed- to avoid doing so could cost you in the longer run. Don't overload this decision with pressure. Once made, you can always make another decision if it turns out awry. You're not a prisoner to your choices, you're in control. Get moving.
Omen to look out for: Temperance
Look for the number 14, or repeats of it. Look for scales, running water, stars, balancing gadgets and objects. Look out for situations where an extreme position or opinion has taken over and made things impossible. If you notice one of these omens then you're being asked to bring things back to the centre ground, rebalance, introduce good sense and moderation. Restore calm and stability.
Virgo

Virgo – This could be your best month of 2025!
Credit: Kerry King
Love & Relationships: Knight of Cups
A highly romantic and whimsical month of love and bliss lies in store for you, lucky Virgo! If you're single then you could be swept off your feet by a charming suitor and fall in love- look out for charismatic Water signs (Pisces, Cancer, Scorpio). If you're attached then go big for Date Night, make grand gestures, tell them how you feel. And if you're happily single, then date and take good care of yourself!
Work & Purpose: Two of Coins
So much new news is flying your way in this area of your life, it's about to get really busy, in a good way! Invitations, promotions, new projects, fresh faces, different territories, upskilling and training,
opportunities and openings. Virgo, be- on red alert because you can make leaps and bounds this May that might, otherwise, take months to achieve.
Omen to look out for: Ace of Swords
Look for the number one, or repeats of it. Look for clips, shows, reels or videos of people sharing what feels like an authentic truth, it will catch in your throat or chest, you will FEEL their honesty and it will move you. Look out for moments in your real life that you could share something authentically raw and personal with someone you trust- don't overthink it, do it. If you notice one of these omens then you're bring asked to tell the whole truth and nothing but!
Libra

Libra – Memory Lane has a gift for you

Love & Relationships: Eight of Cups
Anything that goes awry or ends or falters this May, let it happen and know that it's happening for the best. The Universe works in mysterious ways and sometimes it works to clear things (and
people) out of your life or way, so that better options can find you. This is the process you're going through in your relationship realm this year. A renewal. Let it unfold.
Work & Purpose: Three of Swords
If you've got a toxic colleague or boss then you need to make sure you have clear and firm boundaries, that you protect your personal mental space and wellbeing, and that you potentially are seeking an Exit out of this situation. Don't put up with bad rubbish. Don't stay silent to keep the peace (at the expense of your peace of mind). Take pro-active steps this May. You deserve better.
Omen to look out for: Six of Cups
Look for the number six or repeats of it. Look for anything that stimulates a true and deep feeling of nostalgia in you. Look out for opportunities to connect with your past and rekindle or reunite with someone. Libra, you are being led, in a roundabout way, back to something from your past that deserves a place in your present and future.
Scorpio
13
Scorpio – You're about to activate a 6-week lucky winning streak!
Credit: Kerry King
Love & Relationships: Five of Cups
You're a closed book when it comes to sharing your deep and true feelings with other folk, and this May you have a secret private yearning for something or someone from your past. It might manifest as grief or regret. Don't dwell on it. Take a life lesson from this and look ahead. You can't undo what was done. You can only move on with a wiser mindset. It's ALL still to play for in love.
Work & Purpose: Two of Cups
Relationships at work are what make us happy (or unhappy), so focus on your alliances, colleagues, reports, seniors, and influencers. Instill trust and goodwill into every interaction and exchange and feel more secure, protected, and understood. Find a creative partner if you can! Someone to use as a sounding board and to brainstorm with- this might make the biggest difference in 2025. Two minds are better than one.
Omen to look out for: Six of Wands
Look for the number six or combinations of it. Look out for golden cups, awards, medals and medallions, symbols and objects associated with victory and winning. If you notice one of these omens then you're being gifted the chance to activate a six-week lucky, winning streak! Scorpio, do something chancy and bold to start it off and then keep on playing the boldest hand you can! Fortune favours the bold.
Sagittarius

Sagittarius – Express yourself, experiment, and streamline your commitments
Credit: Kerry King
Love & Relationships: Five of Coins
Whatever you're going through, you don't have to do it alone, Sagittarius. Whatever relationship difficulties, in friendships, family or love, you're experiencing, others will understand, empathise and maybe even have shrewd advice. So express yourself and talk to others about it. Don't keep silent, don't bottle this all up. Share the problems and take on advice. You are not alone in this.
Work & Purpose: Page of Wands
See this May as a time to experiment, play, try new processes or tech or approaches or collaborations. No pressure, no demand to be right first time. If you don't try, then you'll never know. Not everything on the go will work out as a winner, but something will! Be ahead of the others by taking on fresh methods and opportunities and taking the chance! Others will admire this.
Omen to look out for: Two of Wands
Look for the number two or combinations of it. Look out for cross roads, forks in the path, T-junctions, and roads that split suddenly into multiple lanes. Look out for a sensation of feeling like you've got too much on and are overwhelmed. If you notice one of these omens then you're being urged to streamline, prioritise, put down a heavy
load and only carry forward what is urgent, important, or uniquely yours to do.
Capricorn

Capricorn - You are going to get all that you deserve

Love & Relationships: Ten of Wands
Don't burn out, don't give so much of yourself that you can't run your own life, don't keep on giving and giving and trying and trying when it's a one-sided thing. Stand tall, step back, let them show you
what you mean to them… and take them at their actions (not words). You deserve the best. You deserve strength, support, and love. Don't take anything less.
Work & Purpose: Eight of Wands
Networking is where all the prizes and rewards are hiding this May, Cap! Speak up, be visible, showcase and perform, make sure people with influence have access to you and know your ambitions. Truly, you can make amazing leaps and bounds this month just by talking to the right people at the right time. Everything is gate-kept by someone… know who they are and talk to them!

Omen to look out for: The Magician
Look for the number one, or repeats of it. Look for magical symbols, objects, shows, characters, artefacts, books, and predictions. Look out for bright ideas or lightbulb moments in your mind that seem to come out of the blue.

Aquarius

Aquarius – Creativity, renewal, and connection
Credit: Kerry King
Love & Relationships: Ace of Wands
New faces and sparkling new connections are all around you this May, Aquarius, especially with Fire sign folk (Leo, Aries, Sagittarius). Look for friends and acquaintances you can do things you want to do with- sports, outings, classes, hobbies etc. And bring some of that activity into your romantic life too- finding shared interests and passions will keep you both in synch and provide precious time outside of daily life's pressures.
Work & Purpose: Seven of Cups
You're going to be the one with all the ideas this month, Aquarius, and they will just keep on coming! The more creativity you use and pour into your daily tasks, the faster the faucet will run! Keep a little journal with you at all times because inspiration will hit you left, right, and centre all day long. Share your insights widely, be generous about giving them to others. No proprietary feelings here. People will remember your helpfulness and repay you down the line.
Omen to look out for: Nine of Swords
Look out for the number nine or repeats of it. Look out for stories, films, documentaries, articles, podcasts, and interviews about mental health and wellbeing. Look out for folk who seem like they really need or want to talk but are held back somehow. If you notice one of these omens then you being asked to instigate an important conversation about how someone (maybe even yourself…) is feeling. Ask how it's going. This person needs to talk.
Pisces

Pisces – A golden opportunity to make a wish
Credit: Kerry King
Love & Relationships: The Chariot
You are putting purpose into your relationship realm, as in recognising the reasons and nature you are close to people and what you want from that relationship. You're not drifting, you're looking for commitment, mutual support and investment of energy, and a sense that you're allies as well as friends/lovers/partners/family. It's not just about being there because it's convenient, it's about
the effort and intent. BTW, if you're single, look out for a Cancer from overseas!
Work & Purpose : The Moon
There's a mystery or secret which is impacting your work or personal project realm, and you need to get to the bottom of it this May. Ask questions, don't take things presented at face value, look deeper, probe, validate, fact-check, analyse, dig. What you discover will change how you think and what you do next, so don't do anything major until you've done this homework.
Omen to look out for: Nine of Cups
Look for the number nine or 99, or repeats of both, Pisces. Look for fairies! I mean it, maybe they're in a movie or a song, or poem or picture book, maybe they appear IRL like butterflies or small birds which you could imagine being ridden by an elf or pixie! Look out for those wispy dandelion heads that float around- try and catch one if you see it. If you notice one of these omens then you're given the opportunity to make a wish! Take the moment, pause, and visualise your dream and say it aloud in your mind… what you wish for will
come true.
