Your personal life should be very interesting this month as two planets, Venus and Mars, are firing up your 7th House of Partnership. This hot and sassy pair can help you attract a dynamic person or put more excitement into your current relationship. This is no time to hide out or to give up on romance. Sparks can turn into flames at almost any time. If you're tempted to go back to an ex on May 2, ask yourself if anything's changed to make it better this time. Unless you and the other person are willing to dig in deep to address your problems, you could get sucked back into a less-than-fulfilling situation. With Venus and Mars lighting up your chart, there's no reason that you can't do better. Yes, it's hard to start all over with someone new, but it's probably healthier to move out and move on than to stay in a situation where nothing is changing.
Another potentially challenging time is the Full Moon on May 9. It's in hard to satisfy Scorpio and your 2nd House of Self-worth. A tendency to dramatize your flaws can undermine your confidence. But if you are dissatisfied with something about yourself, improve it or build yourself up in another area to renew your self-esteem. Still, if you're not cashing in on the goodies that can come your way this month, a breath of fresh air and a change of scenery with the New Moon on May 24 should do the trick.
