If there’s someone you’re interested in or something you want from an existing relationship, take the lead and speak your truth! Set aside some time to sensually connect with your partners or plan something a bit more luxurious with someone new, especially under the May 7 new moon.
Gemini season is the time to start flirting, so initiate some fun conversations with your significant other or start swiping on apps to chat with potential suitors. Your appetite for adventure and new experiences is even greater under the fiery full moon on May 23, but be careful not to lose your cool with a lover toward the end of the month. You might feel triggered, but that doesn’t mean you need to give up. Instead, be vulnerable about how you’re feeling.
Taurus (April 20 – May 20)
Your glamorous cosmic ruler, Venus, illuminates your sign with its romantic charms during the first weeks of the month, so expect to feel even more attractive. Your natural charisma will infuse your relationships with a bit more sweetness—and if you’re single, it’ll be easy to attract someone you’ve got your eye on. The new moon in your sign on May 7 brings your heart a lovely fresh slate, inaugurating something special and opening new doors to pleasure.

Your relationships are shining, romance opportunities are more abundant than ever, and a lilac haze has settled over your love life. Dive into the fantasy and enjoy.
Gemini (May 21 – June 20):

The full moon, just a few days later, brings a refreshing sense of spontaneity and adventure to your relationships, so maximize those free-spirited vibes.
The planet of love, Venus, enters your sign on the same day as the full moon, so expect a glow that’ll make your charms virtually irresistible.
