Aries Taurus Gemini Cancer Leo Virgo Libra Scorpio Sagittarius Capricorn Aquarius Pisces

The Week Ahead: The Hum of the Universe

The election of Pope Leo XIV—the first American pontiff in history—unfolds beneath a sky ablaze with archetypal symbolism: Mars in Leo opposes Pluto in Aquarius. This isn’t just a celestial backdrop—it’s a mythic summons.

Leo rules the heart and the crown. Pluto demands transformation from the deepest depths. Mars—our planet of action—is fired up with passion in Leo, while Pluto retrograde in Aquarius tears down power structures and tests whether leaders are worthy of their titles.

To choose the name Leo under this sky is to take up more than a mantle—it’s to embody a reckoning. The old model of dominion is crumbling. “We walk together,” Pope Leo XIV declared, offering not dominion but shared destiny. He surely speaks for not only Christians, but all faiths and people.

This moment of spiritual and political shift is underscored by the heavens. Pluto begins its retrograde tour of Aquarius, peeling back layers of power and vision, while the Scorpio Moon swells with emotional clarity. Leadership forged now must be rooted in self-awareness and a willingness to face the collective shadow. Real strength doesn’t perform—it transforms. The call is to lead with presence, humility, and a fire that warms rather than scorches.

This week asks: Where are you being invited to lead—not above, but alongside? The astrology now underscores the weight and wonder of this new chapter:

Key Transits & Alignments:

May 11: Moon in Scorpio square Mars in Leo
This is a fierce, emotionally charged square between the Moon’s undercurrents and Mars’s flamboyant assertiveness. Watch for power plays, emotional flare-ups, or an impulse to prove yourself. Stay grounded—respond, don’t react.

Full Moon in Scorpio (May 12, 2025 at 24º Scorpio)
A culmination of deep emotional currents. This Full Moon asks us to release what we cling to out of fear—especially in relationships, finances, and control. It illuminates what’s been hidden and dares us to transform.

May 13–17: Moon Out of Bounds
The Moon’s emotional tone operates beyond normal bounds during this stretch. You may feel more reactive, instinctive, or untethered. Honor your emotional weather without judgment, and remember not every mood requires a manifesto.

Pluto Retrograde in Aquarius (Ongoing)
Having stationed retrograde just days earlier, Pluto begins slowly excavating the deeper layers of collective structures. What we thought was “new” may require a serious reckoning. Innovation must align with soul—or it unravels.

Uranus conjunct Algol (26º Taurus, Ongoing)
Still exact this week, Uranus activates the feared and misunderstood star of Medusa’s head. This is a confrontation with suppressed power—especially feminine and wild. Liberation comes not through rebellion alone, but through integration of what was once feared. With Pope Leo XIV stepping into power under this alignment, there’s a potent suggestion: spiritual leadership must now face the shadow, not bypass it.

Venus in Aries sextile Jupiter in Gemini (May 13)
A boost of charm, attraction, and enthusiasm. This is a great day for connection, collaboration, or simply enjoying beauty and pleasure. Your ideas land with charisma. Romantic or financial moves made today may benefit from future growth.

Sun conjunct Uranus in Taurus (May 13–14)
Expect the unexpected. This transit amplifies revelations—especially around identity, values, finances, and the Earth. Sudden insight or disruption may jolt you out of a rut, with long-term implications. Stay curious.

Themes: Revelation, Responsibility, Reclamation
This week blends tenderness with reckoning. The Moon’s square to Mars and the Scorpio Full Moon pull on old wounds and dormant power. But Venus, Jupiter, and Uranus bring the electricity of breakthrough. The moment is alive, raw, sacred—and it wants your full attention.

IRL Tip:
Lead with awareness, not performance. Transformation isn’t tidy—it’s true. This is a time to walk together, with reverence and resolve.

Here’s how it plays out, sign by sign:

Aries (March 21-April 19) Weekly Horoscope: for Aries & Aries Rising

House Impacted: 8th House (Intimacy, Power, Debt, Rebirth)
Theme for the Week: Reclaiming your power—without burning the bridge.

Your IRL Week:

This week could bring a financial or emotional reckoning—like finally confronting a loan situation with a partner or deciding to break ties with someone you’ve felt indebted to emotionally. Mars in Leo charges your desire to create and connect, but watch impulsivity. If you feel compelled to overshare or spend to feel better—pause. Venus in your sign gives you the grace to navigate power dynamics with charm.

IRL Tip: Schedule a check-in on shared finances or intimacy issues. Transparency builds trust faster than any grand gesture.

Taurus (April 20-May 20) Weekly Horoscope: for Taurus & Taurus Rising

House Impacted: 7th House (Partnerships, Contracts, Mirror Work)
Theme for the Week: Walking together—without losing yourself.

Your IRL Week:

Partnerships are front and center, but so is your sovereignty. The Full Moon in your opposite sign of Scorpio may expose an imbalance, especially if you’ve been giving more than you’re receiving. With the Sun and Uranus still in Taurus, you’re breaking old patterns—but that can feel threatening to those used to the old script. Venus in Aries adds a layer of passionate intensity that may stir buried emotions.

IRL Tip: Show up in relationships with both tenderness and clarity. Just because it’s emotionally intense doesn’t mean it’s right.

Gemini (May 21-June 20) Weekly Horoscope: for Gemini & Gemini Rising

House Impacted: 6th House (Health, Routine, Service)
Theme for the Week: Break the loop.

Your IRL Week:

Your rhythms are under review. The Scorpio Full Moon may highlight stress in your body that’s tied to emotional avoidance or overcommitting to other people’s drama. Mars in your 3rd house can add pressure to communicate everything—but not every thought needs airtime. Venus in Aries lights up your social sphere with charm, but you still need rest.

IRL Tip: Put your nervous system first. Say no with love and yes with a backbone.

Cancer (June 21-July 22) Weekly Horoscope: for Cancer & Cancer Rising

House Impacted: 5th House (Creativity, Pleasure, Expression)
Theme for the Week: Create like your joy depends on it—because it does.

Your IRL Week:

This is a powerful time to reclaim pleasure and creative fire. The Scorpio Full Moon activates your inner artist or romantic, reminding you that transformation can come through play and presence, not just shadow work. Still, with Pluto retrograde in your 8th house, you may be reviewing past entanglements that suppressed your joy.

IRL Tip: Dance, paint, write, flirt—whatever helps you remember who you were before the world told you to be so careful.

Leo (July 23-August 22) Weekly Horoscope: for Leo & Leo Rising

House Impacted: 4th House (Home, Roots, Emotional Foundation)
Theme for the Week: Lead from the inside out.

Your IRL Week:

Mars is in your sign, giving you energy and visibility—but the Scorpio Full Moon stirs deep waters in your emotional roots. Family dynamics or past wounds could flare up, especially if you’ve outgrown the roles you were once assigned. Pluto in your 7th is reshaping how you engage in partnership—and how you project or perceive power.

IRL Tip: You can shine without having to prove anything. Sometimes the bravest thing a lion can do is rest.

Virgo (August 23-September 22) Weekly Horoscope: for Virgo & Virgo Rising

Theme for the Week: Say the thing. Then let it breathe.

Your IRL Week:

The Scorpio Full Moon lands in your communication zone, asking you to get honest—especially with yourself. Conversations this week may carry unexpected weight or reveal something hidden. With Mars stirring your subconscious house and Uranus shaking up your belief systems, what you say now has ripple effects.

Libra (September 23-October 22) Weekly Horoscope: for Libra & Libra Rising

House Impacted: 2nd House (Values, Money, Self-Worth)
Theme for the Week: It’s not about the price tag—it’s about alignment.

Your IRL Week:

The Scorpio Full Moon spotlights your money story. Are you working harder than you need to for too little return? Or holding onto material things that drain your energy? Venus, your ruling planet, in Aries, turns up the heat in your relationships—but this week is more about you remembering your worth and demanding reciprocity.

IRL Tip: Audit your time like it’s your bank account. Value starts with how you value yourself.

Scorpio (October 23-November 21) Weekly Horoscope: for Scorpio & Scorpio Rising

House Impacted: 1st House (Self, Identity, Embodiment)
Theme for the Week: Full Moon, full you.

Your IRL Week:

This is your Full Moon. It may feel intense—because it is. Something about how you’ve been showing up in the world is no longer sustainable. With Pluto retrograde in your 4th house, this shift is rooted in your emotional and ancestral foundations. Mars at the top of your chart wants results, but this isn’t about performance—it’s about integrity.

IRL Tip: Shed the old skin. You don’t need permission to evolve.

Sagittarius (November 22-December 21) Weekly Horoscope: for Sagittarius & Sagittarius Rising

House Impacted: 12th House (Dreams, Endings, Solitude)
Theme for the Week: You can’t outrun the quiet.

Your IRL Week:

The Scorpio Full Moon activates your deep unconscious. This is a week to listen to dreams, pull back from overstimulation, and confront a fear you’ve been trying to bypass with busy-ness. Mars in Leo tempts you toward adventure—but sometimes courage looks like stillness. Trust the pause.

IRL Tip: Rest is not avoidance. It’s integration.

Capricorn (December 22-January 19) Weekly Horoscope: for Capricorn & Capricorn Rising

House Impacted: 11th House (Community, Future Vision, Networks)
Theme for the Week: Let go of the crowds that don’t see you.

Your IRL Week:

The Scorpio Full Moon lands in your house of friendships and long-term vision. You may feel the sting of disconnection or the call to realign with those who truly get you. Pluto retrograde in your 2nd is helping you reclaim values that got lost in the hustle. Mars in Leo stirs buried emotions around legacy and impact.

IRL Tip: You’re allowed to evolve past old alliances. Choose resonance over nostalgia.

Aquarius (January 20-February 18) Weekly Horoscope: for Aquarius & Aquarius Rising

House Impacted: 10th House (Career, Reputation, Public Life)
Theme for the Week: You can lead. But should you?

Your IRL Week:

Mars in your 7th house may stir tension in relationships—especially if someone’s challenging your authority or spotlight. The Scorpio Full Moon at the top of your chart may bring a career shift or decision into focus. Pluto retrograde in your sign is rewriting your entire sense of self. This isn’t the time for false modesty—or performative leadership.

IRL Tip: The world needs your vision. But not if it costs your truth.

Pisces (February 19-March 20) Weekly Horoscope: for Pisces & Pisces Rising

House Impacted: 9th House (Beliefs, Expansion, Publishing, Higher Learning)
Theme for the Week: Trust the vision, but refine the message.

Your IRL Week:

The Scorpio Full Moon in your 9th invites big-picture truth—but Mercury in Taurus wants you to ground it in something others can actually understand. You may feel torn between mysticism and method. Don’t dismiss one for the other. You’re learning how to make your worldview accessible without watering it down.

IRL Tip: You’re allowed to believe in magic. Just don’t expect everyone to read your spellbook.
