Planet Waves Weekly Horoscope for May 17, 2018

Aries

Aries (March 20-April 19) — Even the most outgoing of people needs somewhere in the world where they feel at ease, and can fully relax. Keep that in mind this week. You might be feeling exhilarated by all the shifting ground, which is in many ways advantageous. Eventually, however, you’ll want something more stable to emerge, on which you can build trust and reliance, and from which you can venture into unfamiliar worlds, knowing your base remains exactly as you left it. Spend some time inhabiting it in forthcoming days.

The Sacred Space of Self, our brand new 2018 Spring Reading, is now available for pre-order. It will cover Chiron’s transition into Aries and Mars retrograde in Aquarius. Please note that the current pre-order price will only be in effect for a short time — and then it will increase.

You get at least an hour total of astrology (in two segments), plus access to last year’s reading and an extended description of your sign.

Taurus

Taurus (April 19-May 20) — No doubt you know the superstition that if you make a wish over birthday candles or unidentified comet-like objects, or whatever, you should not then communicate said wish to anyone. This possibly has its roots in a magical theory that suggests to verbalize something is to diffuse its power. Whatever the merits of that concept, you might actually be wise to do the opposite this week. Your ruler Venus’ change of sign is lending a certain charm to your words. Simply asking may well carry you far.

Gemini

Gemini (May 20-June 21) — You’ve made some pretty good decisions recently in terms of taking charge of your life. This week you should begin to feel the benefit in terms of improved resources or self-esteem. That blessing will only be increased if you actively cultivate your sense of trust and value in yourself, your instincts and your motivations. You simply have no reason for insecurity or doubt, and especially not for guilt. The minute you start to feel any of these creeping in, treat them like guests that have outstayed their welcome.

Cancer

Cancer (June 21-July 22) — Given that several planets have lately changed signs, you might understandably be wondering what on earth is going to happen next. Fortunately, Venus entering your sign Saturday indicates a moment in which you can draw a line under a certain tense episode. It might seem like everyone has been trying to claim a part of you, or to affix a label to you. It’s a good thing you’re not so easy to categorize. Love, nurture and nourish yourself in all your beautiful variegated colors, and never mind what others say.

Leo

Leo (July 22-Aug. 23) — Don’t let any uncertainty you feel regarding the state of the outside world stop you from being who you are. That especially includes your natural tendency to warmth and generosity — qualities which are needed in abundance. Keep right on leading by example. If you’re concerned that someone might be imposing on you, check in with your intuition before deciding how to act. It’s possible there’s more to the story than you realize. Be prepared to give the benefit of the doubt where you can.

Virgo

Virgo (Aug. 23-Sep. 22) — There is, as you’re no doubt aware, a sense of safety in keeping to the shadows. Potentially you feel that you operate best in the background, or blending in like a chameleon. Yet there comes a point when this no longer works, and it’s necessary to stand out, or stand up, and become fully visible. This week would appear to be that moment for you. The astrology looks to be urging you to count yourself in, and to accept that you have a place in the scheme of things that’s uniquely yours. Time to be seen.

Libra

Libra (Sep. 22-Oct. 23) — Your ruling planet Venus is about to enter your realm of career and ambition. If you’ve recently felt uncertain of your prospects, or not quite prominent in your workplace, now the spotlight appears to shine directly on you. Remember that what was true in the past does not automatically follow in the present and future, especially when you’re not dealing with the same people. Don’t let any doubts from former times get the better of you. You can overcome them pretty easily, and you definitely should.

Scorpio

Scorpio (Oct. 23-Nov. 22) — In recent days, someone in your life may have questioned or challenged specific beliefs you hold. I appreciate this can feel quite discomfiting, the more so if you felt your position to be rock-solid. However, it would seem to be part of a personal growth process that could reach a turning point in the week ahead. If you follow it through, you’re likely to wind up with a significantly broadened perspective, which can only serve you. Therefore, take courage, and seek the gift of understanding.

Sagittarius

Sagittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 22) — If you find yourself negotiating this week for something you want, or in a position to request it, remember the difference between assertion and aggression. The latter often springs from desperation or fear. Your charts suggest that you don’t need to feel either, because you have something valuable to offer; probably in the form of a skill of some kind, or unique ideas that you alone seem to produce. Have faith in yourself, and allow this to feed into a confident and friendly demeanor.

Capricorn

Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 20) — Your relationships are about to receive a boost of some kind — whether that involves meeting new people, extending intimacy with someone you care about, or similar. Remember that, more often than not, the first step to receiving what you desire is to ask for it. For you, that might also mean coming to terms with the fact that you can do so. Deal methodically with any guilt: it certainly does not serve you, and is pretty unlikely to be grounded in any kind of realism. Be with people who support you in loving yourself.

Aquarius

Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 19) —
The entrance of Mars into your sign commences what’s likely to be an extended period of discovering yourself through knowing what you want. This will probably play out in a variety of different ways. This week there is a spotlight on your routines and habits. What would you change up, if you could? This might be as simple as rearranging the layout of your home, or where you spend the most time. Regardless, the important thing to note is to set no limits on your imagination.

Pisces

Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20) — If lately you’ve felt any self-doubt or anxiety about your place in the world, Venus changing signs this Saturday should help you put these notions firmly in their place. All you need to do is maintain a firm faith in the truth of who you are, and let the light of the heavens flow through you and into your creative works without interruption. You have too much to contribute for your gifts to go unseen. Trust your inner compass: it has guided you right until now, and will surely continue to do so.

    Hi Amy! Your weekly horoscope fascinated this particular Taurus. Thank You. One of my little inner bells went off at the mention of “a magical theory that suggests to verbalize something is to diffuse its power.”

    It reminded me of the adage “Dare. Do. And Be Silent.”

    Maybe it’s all in our interpretation of the meaning?

    To me, it is an Understanding that to speak of an idea exposes it to the negativity of others. Which will undermine our Self Confidence and plant seeds of Doubt. There are plenty of times when I have Doubted myself and my rather unorthodox and dubious ideas. Unsure of the ground I was standing on, I reached out for support. Only to result in that Doubt being mirrored right back to me. Then I would need even more support and would do it again. And again. Until there was nothing left of my previous passion.

    To Dare and just Do it, requires I conquer my Doubt and rise above it. Courage isn’t a lack of fear but taking action in the face of it. I’ve found success for me didn’t depend on what others thought but what I thought.

    Which for me has been undergoing another shift. I’ll just say I’m experimenting right now. I’m daring and doing. I’m also sure of my foundation and the ground I’m standing on.

    Seeing more Love in my World will mean there is more Love in my World.
