This month is about letting go, showing up, and honoring what your heart already knows.

Cancer, May brings a deep, personal kind of transformation. I am super excited to breakdown this energy for you this month, love.  You’re going to be balancing visibility and vulnerability, chasing dreams while clearing emotional clutter. Some days will ask you to show up bravely, you got this! Others will ask you to rest and listen to your intuition. By the end of the month, you’ll be standing in a space that feels more honest, more aligned, and—most importantly—more you. Are you ready?

Work Dreams, Big Feels, and Quiet Breakthroughs

The month starts off with some dreamy career vibes as Venus conjuncts Neptune on May 2 in your 10th house of purpose and public image. You might be envisioning a new path, a new project, or a total career glow-up. Just double-check the fine print—Neptune tends to blur the lines. Dream big, and make sure you write it down too!

On May 4, Pluto stations retrograde in your 8th house, inviting a deep internal check-in around intimacy, finances, and power dynamics. This isn’t dramatic—it’s more like your inner emotional storage room getting reorganized. Over the next few months, you’ll be refining your emotional boundaries and financial entanglements. Start where the tension is.

By May 5 and 6, supportive aspects between Mercury, Jupiter, Chiron, Venus, and Pluto bring healing insights about your work and self-worth. If you’ve been doubting your talent or feeling too tender to show up fully, something shifts here. You may realize that your vulnerability is exactly what makes you credible and magnetic, Cancer.

Hearts Open, Creativity Will Flow

As you move through the second week of May, the focus shifts to joy and self-expression. The Full Moon in Scorpio on May 11 highlights your 5th house of romance, creativity, and inner child energy. Something you’ve been holding in your heart— hidden feelings, a passion project, or an unspoken truth—needs to be released or revealed. Listen to me, you must – Say it. Make it. Share it. This is less about perfection and more about emotional honesty.

Around this time, Mercury squares Pluto (May 12) and tensions might rise in group settings or friendships. If something feels off in your community or your collabs, speak up—but do it with kindness. The message matters, but so does your delivery. Honor yourself by speaking your truth, and honor others by telling them the truth as you see – no holding back.

A few days later, on May 14 and 15, aspects involving the Sun, North Node, and Jupiter encourage you to align your future goals with your deeper wisdom. The pressure to have it all figured out might rise—but remember, clarity isn’t a one-time download. It’s a process. Trust the one you’re in.

Spark, Insight, and a Little Shake-Up

May 17 brings a cosmic jolt as the Sun meets Uranus in your 11th house of future vision and community. Something may shift in your social circle or in how you see your place in the world. A friend may surprise you. A dream may change shape. It’s okay, love —Uranus does this to keep things real. Let go of what no longer clicks and keep it moving.

Be mindful on May 18, as Mercury squares Mars and words could land harder than you intend. If money, group responsibilities, or values feel out of alignment, try talking it out without the sting. Passion is welcome. Projection? Not so much. Care and kindness are top of the agenda when it comes to our conversations at this time, Cancer.

By May 20, the Sun enters Gemini, activating your 12th house of rest, reflection, and emotional healing. This begins a quieter, more introspective phase of your month. But don’t worry—you’re not disappearing. You’re preparing. There’s power in the pause.

New Moon Reset and A Soulful Realignment

On May 25, Saturn enters your 10th house, kicking off a new era of leadership, discipline, and career refinement. You’re stepping into more responsibility—but in a way that honors your emotional rhythm. That same day, Mercury enters your 12th house and sextiles Saturn, supporting thoughtful planning, a deep soul-check-in, and intentional decision-making.

The real magic lands on May 26, with the New Moon in Gemini in your 12th house. This is your sacred reset. It’s time to release an old pattern, fear, or limiting story that no longer supports your spirit. This is a powerful day for journaling, spiritual rituals such as meditation and prayer, or simply deciding what you’re done carrying.

My lovely Cancer babes, you close the month with mental clarity and emotional power. Between Mercury trining Pluto on May 27 and the Sun-Mercury conjunction on May 29, you may experience a deeply personal breakthrough. It might be quiet. It might be messy. But it will be real. Let that truth guide your next chapter—not fear. You got this.

Mantra for Cancer in May:

✨ “I release what weighs me down. I trust my timing. I build with soul.” ✨

And as always, no matter what Cancer, remember to keep your heart open and your spirit connected!
Ciao for now,
