We’re constantly fascinated by what our zodiac sign says about our lives, whether it's which signs are most compatible, the best sex positions for each sign, or how each sign handles conflict in relationships. That's why Bustle has enlisted Mecca Woods, a New York City-based Astrologer of MyLifeCreated.com to tell us all about how astrology is affecting our lives each week. This week's topic: your weekly horoscope for the week of May 9-15.
The biggest news this week is that Jupiter, the planet of good fortune and opportunity, finally comes out of retrograde this week (May 9) which means if you've been feeling stuck or as though you've have been spinning your wheels over the last four months, you will now start to feel some momentum and progress as Jupiter moves forward. When Jupiter makes a nice angle to Venus (love, abundance) near the end of the week (May 13), it'll be a wonderful time for romance, good vibes, and fortunate opportunities. Read below to find out what this all means for you in the week ahead.
Remember to tune into Bustle's weekly horoscopes video live on Facebook each Monday for a rundown of your weekly horoscope.
Aries (March 21 - April 19)
Treat yourself. When the Universe sees you taking care of yourself and honoring your abundance and your value, it responds in kind. When you focus on lack and never having enough, the Universe also responds in kind. Remember, money is energy.
Taurus (April 20 - May 20)
You’ll be absolutely magnetic this week; drawing in people to you like moths to flame. If you were hoping to get recognized or a little publicity for something you’ve been working hard on, it could happen. Fortunate encounters will be abundant, so make sure you’re ready.
Gemini (May 21 - June 20)
You’re encouraged to toss out the “garbage” this week by establishing better self-care routines. As such, you could begin seeing a therapist to help you heal and remove emotional blockages. Professionally, review how you can best join forces with others to get where you want to go.
Cancer (June 21 - July 22)
Make sure you’re on your grind this week. Interview and meet with potential employers, apply for jobs, reconnect with former clients, and pitch those proposals. Just make sure to proofread emails, resumes, etc. and give yourself ample travel time to avoid delays.
Leo (July 23 - August 22)
You’re reminded this week not to sell yourself short, making sure that any job offers you receive match your true value and your talents. In matters of the heart, you may be asked to reconsider a love affair or relationship. Again, don’t accept less than you deserve.
Virgo (August 23 - September 22)
Opportunities like getting your work produced or published; studying, filming, or working abroad, or being appointed a leadership role could each be a possibility for you this week. When it comes to romance, you could meet someone while traveling.
Libra (September 23 - October 22)
Take a look at ways you can de-clutter your mind and soul. Review how the power of your thoughts and words can attract what you want (and don’t want) to you. If you have something to get off your chest, there’s no better time than now.
Scorpio (October 23 - November 21)
Volunteering for a noble cause (save the earth?), getting more involved with your political party, or raising funds to support education could be just what you need to feed your soul and your community. In love, reconnecting with an ex could be sweet.
Sagittarius (November 22 - December 21)
If you’ve been feeling like you’ve been lagging behind, this is your week to catch up as you’ll find your career picking up major steam. This is your week to shoot for a promotion or take on a project that thrusts you into the limelight. Make sure to bring your A game.
Capricorn (December 22 - January 19)
You might find yourself being a little more optimistic this week than usual. That’s because of the golden rays the cosmos is beaming down on you. Use this week to explore new territory, especially in media or education. In love, tempers may rise; use your heart to set things straight.
Aquarius (January 20 - February 18)
Your finances should pick up for the better this week. A loan or some other major funding could come through, or you could see business picking up at work; especially if you’re self-employed. If debt has been an issue, you could make progress with the help of a financial coach or budget.
Pisces (February 19 - March 20)
If single, grab your trusted wingperson and hit up a few after work parties or a weekend bash as the potential to meet a new boo will be high. If you’re not single, reconnect with your sweetie and take a romantic trip down memory lane to keep the spark going.
