Your May 2024 horoscope is dessert—a sweet treat, well-deserved after eating our eclipse-season vegetables (let’s be real, for some of us it was more like eating glass). May and June are serving us some of the nicest astro weather of the entire year, making this a choice time for travel. A pileup of planets in Taurus this month greases the wheels for anyone who likes to eat well, art well, and hike well on vacation. Whether you save your splurges for restaurants or camping gear, nature’s beauty will be heightened this month. This is a great time to explore foodie capitals, go to music festivals, decamp to gardens of all kinds, and hit up some of the obligatory museums you were tempted to skip. Venus, the patron planet of artists, is in top form throughout the first three weeks of May, so it’s best to watch when the goddess is showing off.
There are two dates that stand out as extra-special this month; the March 18 and 23. On the 18th, we get a double feature of a Venus-Uranus and a Jupiter-Sun conjunction in Taurus—you might find yourself enjoying the most unexpected flavors, and receiving unexpected blessings. If your cup is already full, you can get on the side of the planets by blessing someone who’s struggling. The vibe here is that we all eat better when we eat together. On the 23rd, Venus conjoins Jupiter during the Full Moon in Sagittarius. This is genuinely fun astrology for a party or celebration of some kind—just be wary of the resulting hangover or cleanup that might follow when the Moon squares Saturn.
On May 25, Jupiter enters Gemini, initiating us into a year-long discovery journey of multitudes. Curiosity will send us down a variety of rabbit holes, and even if we don’t emerge wiser, we’ll probably emerge more saturated. We might not be satisfied with traveling for the sake of relaxation during this time—if anything, we won’t be able to turn our brains off on vacation, and might spend a week restlessly looking up historical facts about that one king with the weird eating habits. We’re moving from a sensory playground to a cerebral one, and in the spirit of changing gears, it’s time to prioritize mentally stimulating adventures of all kinds.
