Virgo Horoscope for May 2023 ⭐ GotoHoroscope

Dear Virgos, the earthly and stable energy of the Taurus season usually calms your zodiac sign, also belonging to the earthly element. And since we have no doubt that events will develop very close to this, May 2023 opens you up to new experiences and adventures!

Since the Taurus season started in April, this month begins with a light and open feeling, perhaps even a desire to try something outside your comfort zone. This feeling will be especially bright on May 2nd, when the ruling planet of your sign, Mercury, unites with the energy of the Sun in the 9th house of knowledge. The mind of Virgo boils with inspiration and a desire to learn more, but unfortunately, Mercury is in retrograde until the middle of the month. Except for May 2nd, the retrograding Mercury will mostly distract you with visions of the past, preventing you from focusing on what awaits you in the future. There's nothing you can do about it. Explore what is available to you, and you will come back to your path later.

But it won't just be Mercury holding you back. The full moon and lunar eclipse in Scorpio on May 5th will cause Virgos to focus on what's important to them in the current moment, pushing aside higher ambitions for a later time. Furthermore, the full moon should be considered in conjunction with retrograde Mercury, which will be haphazardly mixing up your motives during this time. All of this will be a very dangerous cocktail, more akin to a truth serum. You may feel a sudden urge to speak up, though unexpected news or fresh information could emerge that will change the trajectory of your future actions in an unpredictable way. Despite the ambiguity and strangeness of what's happening, remember that retrograde periods are meant to teach us something or rid us of the burden of past experiences.

Virgo monthly work Horoscope for May 2023

Horoscope for the week May 13—19, 2024

The inspiration of Virgos will begin to flow once again along the dried-up channel immediately after the end of the retrograde cycle of Mercury, which concludes on May 14, 2023. But you know what? True wonders begin when, on May 16, the planet of luck, Jupiter, changes the sign of its transit, invading the territory of Taurus and joining the Sun and Mercury on its journey. At this time, already overflowing with solar energy, the egocentrism of Virgos, supported by the sociability of Mercury and the luck of Jupiter, will be able to create real magic, which can be expressed in some personal achievement.

Moreover, Jupiter's transition launches a year-long journey of this planet through the sector of your horoscope responsible for knowledge, spiritual growth, and creative aspirations. It's a great time, for example, to book a trip to a faraway country, find a mentor or instructor, or even consider the possibility of education or retraining. By the way, on May 19, in Taurus, there will be a new moon, again in your IX house of knowledge, which can be a starting point for your sign to take the first step towards a new chapter in your life!

On May 20, energetic Mars moves into your inner XII house, inspiring Virgos to conserve energy and focus on planning instead of tactical completion of current tasks. This will give you strength for the next month. Also, on May 21, the Sun moves into restless Gemini, activating your X house of career and professional success. In other words, you have another productive month ahead of you, during which you can achieve a lot! However, be careful at the end of the month. The annoying square between the Sun and strict Saturn on May 28 may cause tension between work and relationships in the final week of spring. Make sure to keep your word and fulfill your obligations, both at work and in relation to promises made to loved ones.
