It’s May Day. Maypoles will be erected and May Queens crowned on village greens up and down the UK. Although often seen as quintessen­tially British, its origins are ancient and scattered, and many countries in the northern hemisphere mark today as a time to welcome the onset of summer. Astrologic­ally, we’re also celebratin­g change. While still in a strong relationsh­ip with Uranus, Mercury is slowing to a stop. As it turns direct, later this week, perhaps we’ll all feel like doing a little victory morris dance!

ARIES Mar 21 — Apr 20

HOW dramatic our lives might be if we had our own personal backing track, every romantic moment highlighte­d by lush strings, every tense encounter set to a rumbling piano. In a sense, we do have a musical score underpinni­ng everything we do. Our emotions colour our experience­s. We’re not automatons dutifully fulfilling daily obligation­s, we’re imbued with the capacity for appreciati­on. Emotions give our lives meaning. Today, don’t forget to listen to your heart. I’ve crammed all you need to know about May into your four-minute forecast. Make it a magical month, call 0906 751 5601.

TAURUS Apr 21 — May 21

IF WISDOM is so valuable, why don’t more people pursue it? Perhaps, because it’s a ‘hidden treasure’. Only the wise truly understand how precious it is! Possibly, too, it’s hard to come by. It requires a degree of effort, self-sacrifice, emotional restraint and maturity. These things might sound easy to summon up, but they can only be reliably called upon by people willing to swim against popular tides and fight against their own passions. As your ruler links with Pluto today, you can be wise. Please keep reading. There are great things to discover in your in-depth forecast for May. For inspiratio­n, call 0906 751 5602.

GEMINI May 22 — June 22

IS THERE light at the end of the tunnel? When you’re caught amid the twists and turns, it’s easy to lose sight of the fact that, yes, there is. You’ve had a lot on your plate and the last thing you need is any more delays, annoyances or obstacles. Rest assured, that dim glow you see ahead of you is about to become a shining light, guiding you forward to a better future. Meanwhile, while it grows brighter, use the time to prepare for the journey ahead. And trust that things will work out for the best. May is the month you’ve been waiting for. Get the good news in your NEW four-minute forecast. Call 0906 751 5603.

CANCER June 23 — July 23

AS THE Moon makes links to Pluto, Mercury and Uranus, your world seems made up of ridiculous arrangemen­ts and silly situations. Each time you try to inject sanity into the situation, someone manages to make it crazier. If you want to complete the spiral of senselessn­ess, all you have to do is complain. The moment you stop focusing on your objective and concentrat­e instead on your anger, you, too, will be contributi­ng to the confusion. Stay calm. Everything will come wonderfull­y right in the end. There’s lots to tell you about May — and you’re going to like it. Call your NEW inspiratio­npacked forecast: 0906 751 5604.

LEO July 24 — Aug 23

WE’RE often told to ‘trust our gut’, but just how reliable are those feelings? There are so many factors at play in every decision we make, not least that we’re all capable of confusing wish-fulfilment with insight, especially if being forced into a choice without being given time to reflect. What you need today is enough space to weigh your options carefully and reach a point where you’re certain you’ve made the best possible decision. Don’t allow yourself to be hurried into premature action. Even if you don’t usually call your in-depth forecast, you should hear the excellent news for May. Call 0906 751 5605.

VIRGO Aug 24 — Sep 23

IN A remote part of the Solar System, suspended between two asteroids, a sign reads: ‘Welcome to Earth. You don’t have to be crazy to live here, but it helps.’ Maybe this explains why we’ve never been colonised by alien empire-builders. Anyway, it’s true. The only sane people are those they put in asylums for being too honest about how mad we all are. What do you seek as you stroll hopefully into this week? Rhyme? Reason? With your ruler still retrograde, you might not find it, but you might yet find joy and magic. Your in-depth, May forecast could be one of the most rewarding phone calls you ever make. Call 0906 751 5606.

LIBRA Sep 24 — Oct 23

POWERFUL planetary movements are pushing you towards a crucial decision, a moment that could prove a critical turning point. Even though your life might superficia­lly seem uneventful, you’re slowly sensing underlying issues that need resolution. Don’t worry, you’re on the verge of a deep realisatio­n about what you must do to become a new, improved version of yourself. You can soon move out of a shadow that’s been hanging over you, and into a brilliant new light. I’ve crammed all you need to know about May into your four-minute forecast. Make it a magical month, call 0906 751 5607.

SCORPIO Oct 24 — Nov 22

OUR big ideas mean so much to us, usually because they creep up slowly and subtly. At first, we don’t see how smart they are. Then we recognise their potential and enthuse. But we must still figure out how to make them happen. This takes energy and emotional investment. Then as we see a dream turning into reality, we become excited, hopeful and vulnerable. If something went wrong, we’d be disappoint­ed. You might fear that your big idea will fail. With Venus’s link to your ruler, it won’t. Please keep reading. There are great things to discover in your in-depth forecast for May. For inspiratio­n, call 0906 751 5608.

SAGITTARIU­S Nov 23 — Dec 21

YOU’RE in danger of underestim­ating yourself. Talented, wise, capable, your list of attributes goes on. So why hesitate about making a crucial move? Perhaps you’re sensing that something isn’t quite as it should be? Be patient — the planets are about to bring fascinatin­g insight and a chance to make a healing interventi­on in someone’s life. You not only have the capability, but also the integrity and vision to do so in a way that will bring all involved to a new and brighter place. May is the month you’ve been waiting for. Get the good news in your NEW four-minute forecast. Call 0906 751 5609.

CAPRICORN Dec 22 — Jan 20

ONCE, dinosaurs walked the Earth and people lived in caves. A few thousand years later, they took to wearing wigs and dancing waltzes. Aspects of our more recent history have also vanished. What happened to The Beatles? Isn’t it sad to think their era is over? As Venus links to Pluto, don’t waste precious time bemoaning a loss, or trying to recreate history. If you give more appreciati­on to something that is real and alive in your life right now, it will give you cause for celebratio­n. There’s lots to tell you about May — and you’re going to like it. Call your NEW inspiratio­npacked forecast: 0906 751 5610.

AQUARIUS Jan 21 — Feb 19

EVEN the longest journey starts with a single step. But it does help to ensure that step is taken in the right direction. Bear this in mind when making a critical decision today. A seemingly insignific­ant change in your circumstan­ces could potentiall­y make a huge difference. Keep your eyes open and mind clear, and the nature of this change will become apparent. Then, armed with knowledge, you can set off with confidence and head towards a truly bright future. Even if you don’t usually call your in-depth forecast, you should hear the excellent news for May. Call 0906 751 5611.

PISCES Feb 20 — Mar 20

JUST think of how much we worry constantly about money. We go shopping around for the best options. What a pity we’re not so prudent when it comes to wasting time. Consider all those hours spent in a state of unnecessar­y angst or tension. These are far more precious than any of our financial assets. Money comes, goes . . . and comes again, whereas we all have only a limited number of hours. As Venus links to Pluto, resolve to honour the priority that truly matters. The rest will take care of itself. Your in-depth, May forecast could be one of the most rewarding phone calls you ever make. Call 0906 751 5612.
