Partnerships play an important role in your professional life this month. The New Moon in Taurus on May 5 falls in your 7th House of Others, which is excellent for making new connections or shoring up old ones. Look for allies who are ready to support you with talents that complement your own. This Sun-Moon conjunction is also excellent for reaching out to the public with a service or product. Your ability to make a good impression is strengthened by being solid, direct and down-to-earth. Instead of emotion, rely on facts and simple statements that you can prove. Your passion is a great force, yet it’s straightforward information that is going to be more effective for you now.

Attractive Venus aligns favorably with your ruling planet Pluto on May 1, making this a time to ask for what you desire. This can also be a positive period for reviving a deal or idea that’s been set aside. You can find resources that may not have been available before, so if you’ve got something creative up your sleeve that didn’t fly in the past, you might want to give it another try. Don’t be afraid to take on a big project, since your imagination and managerial abilities are both strong. The Full Moon on May 19 falls in your sign, Scorpio, bringing strong feelings to the surface. If you’re ready for a showdown, well then, let ‘er rip. But if you want to keep the job you have, be careful about getting so stressed that you push someone further than you should.
