Your May 2025 Horoscope for Libra
by Susan MillerIn April we had some cosmic storms that extended into this month’s full moon on May 12. You can see why I am so happy about the gorgeous May 26 new moon, and it will be in air-sign Gemini—just perfect to help you.
Furthermore, I see a lovely June, July, and August, and although September has two eclipses, they won’t be in your sign—that will make a big difference.
Mercury will retrograde from July 17 to August 11. Many people relax on vacation at that time. You can travel when Mercury is out of phase if you are careful about all your arrangements. Mercury won’t spoil holiday shopping this year because it will retrograde from November 9 to November 29. (The big stores have been having events much earlier, and I find that to be a blessing—we need a longer lead up to the holidays. There is just too much to do.) As you see, May 26 will be a turning point toward a much better, brighter year.
SUMMARY
You seem to be focused quite a bit on money management at the start of the month. You may be working to lower your expenses, filing taxes, and putting a savings or investment plan in place. To reach your goal, you might need to temporarily decline an upcoming event, such as participating in an elegant fête, like a friend’s wedding or weekend away at a spa, as two examples. Although you may feel a little sad to have to do this, your motivation and commitment to build financial security appears to be stronger than any transitory pleasure you might have enjoyed in early May. This drive to closely study your finances was first put in motion last month at the new moon in Taurus on April 27.
Your examination of your finances will move swiftly toward a culmination at the full moon in Scorpio on May 12. At that time you will need to make a decision about a money matter or take action regarding a financial obligation that will come due between May 12 and May 17. The good part about this full moon will be that it will mark the end of your near obsession to tame your finances. Your career is about to shine brighter than diamonds in the Sun, so if a large, unexpected expense comes up, don’t worry—success is on the way for you. Most importantly, your coming salary compensation should match your rising status in your industry. You will begin to notice this wonderful news in June or July.
Indeed, positive career news is coming soon, but before it does, it appears you will have a chance to travel to an exotic city that will require your passport for entry. With four happy heavenly bodies gleefully jumping up and down in your ninth house at the especially beautiful new moon in Gemini on May 26, your trip would be truly exquisite.
