Aries Horoscope May 2025
Aries Energy
There’s so much going on in your star sign this month that you might need to take a breather now and again and the planets are in agreement. Fire sign energy kicks in as soon as the month begins and both the planet of communication Mercury and the planet of love Venus are in your star sign Aries.
Mercury in Aries is the fast talker and remains in your star sign until the 10th. The 5th promises luck and good fortune when Mercury aligns with Jupiter in Gemini and your communication sector.
Yet, there’s another planet moving into Aries at the end of the month. Saturn is the planet of rules and regulation, authority, discipline and boundaries and enters Aries on May 25th. Aries is your star sign and to have Saturn here is hugely significant. What are you ready to commit to? Alternatively, what do you want to bring an end?
Saturn is the planet of responsibility, also hard work and effort. This could help you flex your levels of self-discipline, when you’re ready to commit whole-heartedly to a project or goal. You might be willing to step into a position of leadership over the next few months and years.
Yet, be wary of taking on too much or working overly hard. Keep close tabs on your stress levels, your attitude and prioritise well-being. Don’t allow the gloomy side of Saturn to take hold.
Play Time
What helps is the fact that your ruling planet Mars is in fire sign Leo throughout May. Being a Sun Aries, fire is your element so this is a time to do what you do best, be spontaneous, prioritise fun and make snap decisions.
This is a cosmic reminder to look on the bright side of life and seek more joy, play and happiness. Leo emphasises romance, children, creativity, entertainment and play in your horoscope. You could find your spirits lift and your energy levels increase.
You may be on fire for a passion, a creative project or a lover. Perhaps, you rediscover your inner child, when you hang out with young people or your own children. Mars was first in Leo in the last two months of 2024.
Therefore, anything that’s been on hold or stalled so far this year could get going this month and fast. Make a determined effort to stay positive and be a role model for feel-good energy.
Love Vibes
Love is under the cosmic spotlight this month as lovely Venus is back in your star sign Aries throughout May. There’s a theme of second chances when it comes to love and events on the 2nd promise romance.
You’re not shy if you’re a typical Sun Aries. Instead, your nature is impulsive and daring. Venus in your star sign can kick-start your love life into action and fast. You may enjoy the thrill of the chase in May. Or perhaps, you choose self-love.
Plus, on the 22nd, the lovers of the heavens Venus and Mars unite. If you’re looking for love, turn up the dial of romance to full volume. This combination is great for balancing the different aspects of yourself, the feminine and masculine.
Money Matters
One area of life that may require careful handling is money. This is because the Sun is in Taurus and your personal money sector until the 20th and talk planet Mercury is in Taurus from the 10th to the 26th.
Plus, this month’s Full Moon on the 12th cuts across the Taurus-Scorpio axis of the zodiac and the financial sectors of your horoscope. Full Moons shine a light on your situation. They often bring clarity, culmination or a sense of completion. It’s a good time to trust your intuition, especially around money.
There is another important planet influencing money, the planet of change Uranus. Uranus teams up with Sun in Taurus on the 17th, Mercury on the 24th and is active during the Full Moon phase.
This could be a lively time for money and you may be playing for high stakes. Fire signs, like yourself, like to gamble and speculate but be aware that Uranus takes no prisoners – it’s often a double or quits game.
Yet, this could be the time to try something new and be an innovator. Your star sign Aries is brilliant at starting new projects. If you want to make money and fast, this could be your opportunity.
It’s the ideal time to shift your mindset around money, boost your self value and worth and ensure you’re paid what you deserve. Be a money innovator, but do watch out for unexpected expenses and know your limits.
Gemini Season
Gemini rules the sector of your horoscope linked to transport and trips, study and learning. The Sun enters Gemini on the 20th followed by talk planet Mercury on the 26th. Most importantly, expansive Jupiter remains in Gemini, although Jupiter will move on next month.
As the month comes to a close, you may be planning a study course, be writing exams or involved in a teaching project. Or perhaps, you’re launching a podcast or website. Gemini rules both the spoken and the written word. Gemini rules your local neighbourhood, great for car boot sales, networking and being curious about where you live.
This month’s New Moon on the 27th falls in Gemini, an ideal date for new beginnings. Launch a community or communication-related project, update your transport or technology. Whatever you’re up to, expand your network and catch up with your relatives.
You could enjoy story-telling, creative writing or learn a new language. Explore new avenues and different activities. Most importantly, ask the right questions, especially on the 30th, an excellent date to be bold and speak up.
Pluto Retrograde
Pluto switches direction in air sign Aquarius on the 4th. This highlights your friends, groups, social causes and your role in the world. Pluto in Aquarius is a symbol of power to the people and you may choose to take on a key role or position in this new wave. Perhaps, you’re working on a protest or demonstration behind the scenes. Pluto will remain retrograde until mid-October.
As Pluto moves into reverse, some friendships or group alliances may not work out. However, it’s in these areas of life where power is evident, as long as it’s used to good effect.
