By Jeff JawerProvided by Tarot.comShowing how dependable you are can boost your professional status during the first part of the month. The Sun in rock solid Taurus is moving through your 10th House of Career until May 20, and you earn points by being steady rather than flashy. Your willingness to sacrifice personal glory for the good of the team gets you well-deserved respect. Just be patient, though, as recognition in the time of Taurus tends to come slowly and without extravagant praise. May 12, though, can be a positive exception as the Sun, your ruling planet, forms a harmonious 120-degree trine with generous Jupiter. Your sense of strategy could be right on target, enabling you to successfully sell an idea.
Just stay rooted in facts since enthusiasm alone will not do the job. The Suns tense right angle square with nebulous Neptune on May 14 could make you look weak if youve promised too much or skipped an important detail. On May 20 the Sun enters chatty Gemini, a sign that complements yours quite well. However, any attempt to rush someone could be an issue on May 22. The point is to be in total control of yourself and any message you want to send. Mercury, the planet of information, slips into reverse on May 26 in your 11th House of Groups. Its three-week retrograde cycle can be good for reconnecting with old friends or colleagues, yet miscommunication with present co-workers and customers can become more common. Double-check data to avoid miscues that might lead you off track.
