Daily Horoscope: Moon Transiting Sagittarius, May 17, 2022

Moon transiting Sagittarius, Tuesday, May 17th, conveys an enthusiasm for growth and conquest mixed with a feeling of being special – possibly even entitled – which can lead to impulsive or excessive spending or temporary shiny object syndrome, as the moon forms a trine aspect to Venus in Aries, a quincunx aspect to Uranus in Taurus, and a square aspect to Mars conjunct Neptune in Pisces. Pausing to examine your motivations and desires before you set out to acquire anything – or anyone – would be wise while Mercury retrograde in Gemini joins the sun and North Node in Taurus, exchanging supportive energy with Mars and Neptune in Pisces, and Pluto retrograde in Capricorn, but receiving a truth or consequences cautionary square aspect from Saturn in Aquarius. Those Mercury aspects give you the charm, magnetism, and persuasion to succeed or win, but what is the true reason for pursuit in the first place, and are you willing to pay the price for your choices and actions, or to do the work of maintaining what you have won? Mars conjunct Neptune in Pisces activates sexual and romantic yearning, and Venus in Aries enhances the thrill of the chase as well as the pleasure of being the center of attention, and the moon – which aspects them both – is transiting cavalier and competitive Sagittarius. Romance or business is a bit of a game now, where winning comes down to appearing special or making the other person feel special, but the shadows of illusion and gullibility will play out, and Saturn will deliver an equalizing reality check. Enjoy the game, but be careful, and if you are the one in player mode now, do not deliberately mislead anyone. Comparison shop or wait for the moon to enter Capricorn tomorrow before spending.
