May 2025 Monthly Horoscope Overview for Scorpio:
You are more ambitious than usual and quite focused on accomplishment this month, dear Scorpio. You’re not in any mood to be told what to do, preferring to lead the way yourself in May. Mars brings extra muscle and motivation to your career, image, status, and responsibilities. You’re in fine shape for sorting out your duties, organizing your personal and workspace, and researching your options.
You’re more invested than usual in the success of your relationships this month, and negotiations and diplomacy are highlighted. Fortunately, Venus is back in the game, and relating is more straightforward.
Pluto begins its retrograde cycle on May 4th, positioning you well to review, reassess, and gain a new perspective about areas of your chart strongly influenced by Pluto: your personal goals, personality, security, comfort, family, and home or domestic life. Some related plans may need adjustment, but you might find it easier to detach from pressures and fears in these areas. You’ll find this process more comfortable as you grow more accustomed to this energy.
Even so, where there were delays, confusion, and irritations in April, you’ll enjoy forward movement, corrected courses, and clarifications in May. The areas most affected by slowdowns have been relationships, work, routines, and health. Further clarity comes to these areas of life in May, and perhaps some second chances to work things out. This month not only eases you forward, but it also features some very supportive influences for your partnerships and finances.
With Mars at the top of your solar chart, you can be especially dynamic with business, career, and life plans. It certainly helps that you have boosted charisma on the job with Venus moving through your work and health sector all month. Your ambitions are stirring, and you’re taking the lead.
Improvements in your routines, habits, and everyday life that enhance your intimate life or feelings of personal empowerment can be in the spotlight this month. You’re also working on making your connections stronger and happier, and you have cosmic support for this task.
Around the Full Moon on the 12th can be an especially illuminating period. Projects come to bloom, and you come into touch with your true feelings on a matter. What you’ve been brushing to the side can no longer be ignored! This can be a magical time for relationships but also for self-discovery, as this Full Moon occurs in your sign. Your intuitive feelers are on double duty! It can be an important time to check in with those feelings and desires you’ve brushed off or left unfulfilled.
May can also be a significant money month, not necessarily for windfalls but for getting good deals or gaining support more effortlessly. You don’t shy away from dealing with imbalances of power or from tricky, taboo topics this month, and you’re ready to take charge in your intimate life, especially in the last week of May.
This can be a time of increased activity in your career, but you may also feel a strong desire to take the lead and act independently. In your personal life, however, you’re in an entirely different frame of mind. Collaboration and cooperation are in focus.
The lines of communication open with a significant other or good friend, especially from the 10th to the 25th. You’re in a particularly good light on the job, at the gym, or other activities related to your daily routines and health pursuits, leading to social or romantic opportunities or simply more pleasure in your everyday life.
A significant other can help give you perspective this month and shared plans and ideas can improve your bond. Energies are excellent for conversations with a partner, advisor, or counselor. Others can be your sounding board. Listen when people compliment you or recognize your talents and potential, as the feedback can be precious to you now.
The last week of the month includes a New Moon in your intimacy and sharing sector, prompting the urge or need to start fresh. It’s a fine time for exciting lifestyle changes and feeling on top of things. Transits support building exciting strategies for your work or future. You might also see an intimate relationship, your personal psychology and inner desires, or financial issues more clearly now. Solving a mystery can be rewarding, or you might have a particularly illuminating discussion about a matter that was previously hidden, kept under wraps, or incredibly complicated.

Scorpio (Born October 24 to November 2) and Scorpio Ascendant 0 to 10 degrees Scorpio:
May 2025 Scorpio Horoscope: Love, Career, & General Trends
May 2025
The Sun this Month: Central Focus, Consciousness
Until May 20th:
The Sun continues to put a spotlight on your solar seventh house–your partnership sector. This can be a time of much learning through the mirror of close relationships. It’s not the time to push your agenda or personal plans forward; rather, it’s a cycle in which you are at your best when you recognize the need to form alliances, to give back to a special someone, and to compromise in order to find some balance in your life.
It’s a strong period for putting yourself into another person’s shoes and to better understand him/her. You may be meeting with someone strong and assertive by nature now, or a partner is more assertive and needy of attention. There may be some competitive feelings between you and a significant other now. Focus is on reconciliation, forming or cementing bonds, diplomacy, consultation, one-on-one interactions, and negotiations. You may feel a little drained physically now, temporarily.
From May 20th forward:
The Sun energizes your sector of transformation, change, sexuality, personal growth, regeneration, others’ money and resources, addictions, and taxes. As a result, this is not the most gregarious of months for you. You take a step back, focus on intimacy with a partner, or simply retreat a little from the hectic pace of life. This is an excellent time to create a budget or financial plan, or to rid yourself of bad habits that undermine your sense of personal power and self-mastery.
All that is deeply personal comes into focus now. Intimate matters are especially important to you during this cycle. Just how well you are handling your life comes up for inspection. Your self-mastery skills and psychological predisposition matter to you more than usual. This is the time of year when you are most desirous of change on a deep level. Clearing out psychic “junk” or ridding yourself of bad habits may be part of the picture now. You are more willing than usual to explore life’s secrets.
This cycle brings greater in-depth understanding and an inclination to delve beneath the surface of matters to get to the bottom of them. Research uncovers new material that allows you to develop a better overall picture of the year’s events. This is an especially introspective cycle during which you have the chance to truly uncover your personal strengths and talents. On a more practical level, you may be dealing with joint finances and shared resources now more than usual.
Venus this Month: Love, Romance, Social Life, Comfort, Pleasure
This month:
Venus continues to move through your solar sixth house now. This is a time when beautifying and/or bringing harmony to your working environment is a priority to you. You might find more opportunities to socialize with co-workers, perhaps even meeting a new friend through your work or health routines. You are likely to bring more tact and diplomacy to your relations with the people you work with now. You may not be as productive as usual during this period, as the focus is more on social relationships and pleasure than on getting the job done. Improving health and vitality through pleasurable activities such as massage might be in focus now.
Mercury this Month: Communications, Learning, Connections, Transportation
Until May 10th:
Mercury continues to transit your solar sixth house. This is an excellent cycle for improving your skills, objectively identifying your weaknesses so that you can work on them, and for finding flaws in your work methods or approach to daily activities so that you can make necessary changes.
You might be especially focused on list-making and to-do lists, as well as organizing things around you. The need to communicate about your work, health, and other daily affairs, or with co-workers, is especially strong now. Negative expression of this position is worrying about sixth house matters (work, health, pets, and so forth) rather than finding ways to improve these things.
From May 10th to 25th:
Mercury transits your solar seventh house. You tend to weigh the pros and cons of every issue during this cycle, taking into account others’ needs as well as your own. Some indecisiveness is possible now, simply because you naturally entertain opposing viewpoints. You have a strong desire to cooperate and communicate with others now. You feel most comfortable spending time with people on a one-to-one level, or with those with whom you share a personal history.
Interestingly, your own thoughts become clearer through dialogue with others during this window. You may be doing public relations work, counseling, negotiating, or arbitration during this cycle. There is a lot of emphasis on communications with partners and best friends at this time. You can use the power of words to advise others or to make peace with people in your life. You are more diplomatic than usual during this transit.
From May 25th forward:
Mercury transits your solar eighth house. You are more intuitive now than usual, picking up all of the hidden cues from people around you and reading between the lines. This is an excellent cycle in which to do some financial planning and strategizing.
Research is also highly favored. It’s easier for you to approach sensitive, intimate, and personal matters with rationality and logic. As such, this is a great time to open up conversations about topics that normally might cause waves, such as those revolving around the sharing of power, intimacy, and finances.
Mars this Month: Energy, Drive, Courage
All month:
Mars continues to energize your solar tenth house now. You bring much energy, enthusiasm, and drive to your career or to directing activities in your life during this cycle. You may be quite competitive during this period, preferring to achieve and accomplish things on your own. This attitude can, in some cases, be seen by others as an instigating or otherwise offensive energy, so be aware of that possibility.
This is a strong time for directly pursuing your goals, and, if you need that extra push or oomph to get a plan going, particularly a professional one, or to assert your desires, then this is the time. You are self-motivated, and your enthusiasm can be harnessed if you so choose.

Scorpio (Born November 3 to 12) and Scorpio Ascendant from 10 to 20 degrees Scorpio:
May 2025 Scorpio Horoscope: Love, Career, & General Trends
May 2025
The Sun this Month: Central Focus, Consciousness
All month:
The Sun illuminates your seventh house. At this time of year, you have a greater need than usual to be with a partner. Bouncing ideas off someone helps you to better understand yourself. A partner provides a mirror for your own self-discovery. Now is the time to realize your own potential through a significant other. During this cycle, you focus on balancing your personal interests and objectives with your social life, or with those of a partner. The emphasis is on “us” rather than “me”.
You need the energies, companionship, and support of other people, and they may also seek out your support and companionship. It’s important to include others rather than to go solo for the time being. However, bending too much to the will of another is not advised either. Social interactions of a personal, one-on-one kind are emphasized. Circumstances are such that your diplomacy skills are required. Your popularity is increasing, and is reinforced by your own ability to cooperate and harmonize. Your ego and pride are tied up in how you relate to others now. This may be an especially busy time for people who consult or work with clients one-on-one.
Venus this Month: Love, Romance, Social Life, Comfort, Pleasure
Until the 14th:
Venus continues to transit your solar fifth house. Your popularity is on an upward trend during this cycle as others find you especially attractive and friendly. You may have the desire to dress well and in good taste. There is strength in your feelings of love and the power of attraction, which may open the door to new romantic relationships. Yet, you are not aggressive in your approach to love. Instead, you attract more if you allow yourself to be pursued during this cycle. Conditions are highlighted in connection with young people, and quite possibly a female child–a stronger bond could be formed during this period. You are feeling inspired creatively and romantically and you express your loving feelings quite openly now. Creative self-expression of any kind is favored at this time. You will also thoroughly enjoy artistic, musical, or cultural events and activities, especially in the company of a loved one. At this time, you instinctively know how to place yourself in the best light in order to make a good impression on others. Any love affair begun now will be characterized by good cheer, having fun, and a fair share of emotional drama!
From May 15th forward:
Venus graces your solar sixth house now. Establishing a happy and harmonious work environment through friendly relations with co-workers or tidying up your work area comes into focus now. Romantic and social activities may revolve around your working environment. You are generally well liked and respected socially on the job right now. Some laziness is possible now, as you tend to associate pleasure with work! Perhaps you are socializing more than usual on the job. You have good team spirit during this cycle, and you are more tactful and obliging with your co-workers. You are less inclined to fall in love for the sake of love itself during this cycle. Your tendency is to consider whether it is clever to do so! You’re most successful doing tasks that involve cooperation and team harmony. You could find that your talents or skills are especially appreciated. Romantic and social activities may revolve around your working environment.
Mercury this Month: Communications, Learning, Connections, Transportation

May 2025 Scorpio Horoscope: Love, Career, & General Trends
May 2025
The Sun this Month: Central Focus, Consciousness
Until May 10th:
The Sun continues to spotlight your solar sixth house. This is a busy period that finds you tending to many different details of your daily existence–your work, various projects, organization around the home and office, your daily routines, and health matters. Your ego may be especially tied up in the work you do, so that you are proud and more creative than usual in your job. You may be in the position to take charge in your work, or to take charge of your health and diet. Sometimes this cycle relates to increased activities involving pets. You seek to perfect your skills or methods now, and you focus on the parts that make up the whole now in order to improve your daily life. As a result, you can be more critical than usual, but this process is necessary for you to sort out what works for you and what doesn’t.
From May 10th forward:

Mercury this Month: Communications, Learning, Connections, Transportation
Until the 3rd:
Mercury continues to transit your solar fifth house. Increased communication with children, romantic partners, and people who share the same hobbies as you can occur now. Certainly, you are thinking about these people and about love and romance, child rearing, and/or creative pursuits more than usual. Mental exercises and competitions can be particularly enjoyable now. You express yourself with warmth and creativity, and you have an appreciative “audience” for your ideas now.
From the 4th to the 21st:
Mercury transits your solar sixth house. This is a good placement for Mercury, as it is the natural ruler of the sixth house. It’s an excellent period for sorting out the details of your daily existence. You are inclined to make to-do lists, pay bills and sort out clutter, and to do detail work on the job. Health matters are most certainly on your brain as well, and you could be thinking of scheduling check-ups or busy researching ways to improve your health. You may also show a keener interest in improving your basic skills.
Your approach to work during this cycle is pleasant, happy, and logical for the most part, unless you allow worry or scattered energy to enter the picture. You are inclined to want to learn new work skills, or to improve your skills and output in terms of work. There is likely to be more activity, movement, contact, and communications with co-workers now.
You tend to take more interest in organizing your working environment–and this is an excellent time to do so, as you are especially objective and intelligent when it comes to getting a handle on your daily affairs and all of the “little things” that contribute to a feeling of efficiency and competency. Menial tasks become more prominent. Watch, however, for tension or idle chit-chat interfering with your work output during this cycle.
From the 21st forward:
Mercury transits your solar seventh house. You tend to weigh the pros and cons of every issue during this cycle, taking into account others’ needs as well as your own. Some indecisiveness is possible now, simply because you naturally entertain opposing viewpoints. You have a strong desire to cooperate and communicate with others now. You feel most comfortable spending time with people on a one-to-one level, or with those with whom you share a personal history.
Interestingly, your own thoughts become clearer through dialogue with others during this window. You may be doing public relations work, counseling, negotiating, or arbitration during this cycle. There is a lot of emphasis on communications with partners and best friends at this time. You can use the power of words to advise others or to make peace with people in your life. You are more diplomatic than usual during this transit.
Mars this Month: Energy, Drive, Courage
Until the 29th:
Mars continues to animate and energize your solar ninth house. Your energy levels and sense of timing are good during this cycle. You are strong and bold in your beliefs and convictions as well, and others tend to naturally follow your lead. You actively seek out new learning experiences and have a strong desire to set out on new adventures, however big or small. Others find you easy to be around, even inspiring and energizing, and are attracted to your assertiveness and courage.
From May 30th forward:
Mars animates and energizes your solar tenth house. This transit stimulates your ambition and/or your desire to be recognized for your accomplishments. Whether it’s professional or personal, you are likely to have an increased desire for others to notice you. This can be a good time to become self-employed or start a business if other factors (and Mars itself) are favorable. Conflicts with those in authority are possible now. You may pour more energy into self-promotion or business/career activities.

Mars brings extra muscle and motivation to your career, image, status, and responsibilities. You’re in fine shape for sorting out your duties, organizing your personal and workspace, and researching your options.
You’re more invested than usual in the success of your relationships this month, and negotiations and diplomacy are highlighted. Fortunately, Venus is back in the game, and relating is more straightforward.
Pluto begins its retrograde cycle on May 4th, positioning you well to review, reassess, and gain a new perspective about areas of your chart strongly influenced by Pluto: your personal goals, personality, security, comfort, family, and home or domestic life. Some related plans may need adjustment, but you might find it easier to detach from pressures and fears in these areas. You’ll find this process more comfortable as you grow more accustomed to this energy.
Even so, where there were delays, confusion, and irritations in April, you’ll enjoy forward movement, corrected courses, and clarifications in May. The areas most affected by slowdowns have been relationships, work, routines, and health. Further clarity comes to these areas of life in May, and perhaps some second chances to work things out. This month not only eases you forward, but it also features some very supportive influences for your partnerships and finances.
With Mars at the top of your solar chart, you can be especially dynamic with business, career, and life plans. It certainly helps that you have boosted charisma on the job with Venus moving through your work and health sector all month. Your ambitions are stirring, and you’re taking the lead.
Improvements in your routines, habits, and everyday life that enhance your intimate life or feelings of personal empowerment can be in the spotlight this month. You’re also working on making your connections stronger and happier, and you have cosmic support for this task.
Around the Full Moon on the 12th can be an especially illuminating period. Projects come to bloom, and you come into touch with your true feelings on a matter. What you’ve been brushing to the side can no longer be ignored! This can be a magical time for relationships but also for self-discovery, as this Full Moon occurs in your sign. Your intuitive feelers are on double duty! It can be an important time to check in with those feelings and desires you’ve brushed off or left unfulfilled.
May can also be a significant money month, not necessarily for windfalls but for getting good deals or gaining support more effortlessly. You don’t shy away from dealing with imbalances of power or from tricky, taboo topics this month, and you’re ready to take charge in your intimate life, especially in the last week of May.
This can be a time of increased activity in your career, but you may also feel a strong desire to take the lead and act independently. In your personal life, however, you’re in an entirely different frame of mind. Collaboration and cooperation are in focus.
The lines of communication open with a significant other or good friend, especially from the 10th to the 25th. You’re in a particularly good light on the job, at the gym, or other activities related to your daily routines and health pursuits, leading to social or romantic opportunities or simply more pleasure in your everyday life.
A significant other can help give you perspective this month and shared plans and ideas can improve your bond. Energies are excellent for conversations with a partner, advisor, or counselor. Others can be your sounding board. Listen when people compliment you or recognize your talents and potential, as the feedback can be precious to you now.
The last week of the month includes a New Moon in your intimacy and sharing sector, prompting the urge or need to start fresh. It’s a fine time for exciting lifestyle changes and feeling on top of things. Transits support building exciting strategies for your work or future. You might also see an intimate relationship, your personal psychology and inner desires, or financial issues more clearly now. Solving a mystery can be rewarding, or you might have a particularly illuminating discussion about a matter that was previously hidden, kept under wraps, or incredibly complicated.

About Our Monthly Horoscopes:
Our detailed monthly horoscopes are designed to reveal and interpret the current transits of the Sun, Mercury, Venus, and Mars in your solar chart. Because these energies or transits do not unfold neatly into any given calendar month (many transits carry forward from one month to the next), you will find some of the energies continue from the previous month.
For example, the Sun might transit the second house of your solar chart from June 21 to July 22, so that you will find a similar interpretation for this transit in both June and July’s horoscope. This is normal and expected. While new months can hold new energy, transits don’t abruptly change because the calendar month changes.
These monthly horoscopes also include an overview paragraph, as well as other energies specific to the month, such as retrogrades, eclipses, or major outer planet transits.
The horoscopes are divided into three groups or decanates, and the differences between the groups are subtle in parts and large in other parts. For those who prefer a whole sign approach to horoscopes (classic), simply read the first decanate regardless of your birthdate.
