Daily Horoscope: Moon Transiting Cancer, May 2, 2025

Moon transiting Cancer, Friday, May 2nd presents the exciting, and possibly frightening, opportunity to learn or try something new, under the protective guidance of a mentor, teacher, parent, or expert as the moon in a nurturing cardinal water sign forms a square aspect with Chiron and Mercury, both in Aries, and a trine aspect with the North Node and Saturn in Pisces conjunct Venus and Neptune, both in Aries. The “Aha!” moment when you realize you are meant to shift from being an amateur to a professional could come today, or perhaps you will realize that you must tell someone to become more self-sufficient and rely on you less for material or emotional support. A Minor Grand Trine aspect pattern involving the lineup of the North Node/Saturn/Venus/Neptune, as well as Uranus in Taurus, and Pluto in Aquarius, can help you express tough love or ultimatums compassionately, but with clearly defined boundaries or expectations. Jupiter in Gemini sextile to Chiron and Mercury in Aries indicates that choosing to grow is beneficial, work and responsibility comes with it, along with some complicated mixed emotion. You may feel happy and excited, for yourself, or for another, but also sad if a graduation or change of identification is taking place. Today’s planets offer juxtapositions of youth and maturity, naivety and wisdom, inexperience and skill. Hold on loosely and know when to let go.
