Are you ready for a week filled to the brim with enthusiastic energy, drive and ambition, and s sensual, romantic spirit that encourages you to seek pleasure? Then there are two major transits this week that are coming to ignite your passion and amplify your epicurean pastimes.
These transits are special because they’re both extremely cozy in their respective signs, as these two planets are moving into the signs they rule over! Starting on May 24th, Mars – the planet of passion, ambition, and willpower – will be blazing into fiery Aries, the very sign over which Mars rules.
This transit ignites a spark within that helps you feel more energetic and enthusiastic about your projects, especially when they drum up a sense of creative passion. Vigorous exercise helps you make the most of this transit by releasing negativity and boosting your physical energy even further.
On May 28th, Venus – the planet of love, relationships, and sensuality – is moving into Earthy, peaceful Taurus. (Venus rules over both Taurus and Libra, two signs that share a deep appreciation for art, beauty, and love.) Venus is extra cozy in pleasure-seeking Taurus, as it heightens your desire for delicious food and drink, beautiful art, mellifluous music, and plenty of rest and pampering.
You may risk overindulging during this period, so balance is the key to taking advantage of this transit. Morning meditations or positive affirmations are an excellent way to reaffirm your balanced, centered spirit.
These transits amplify enthusiasm, energy, and desire, making it a great time to go after what you want and enjoy what you already have!
May 23rd – 29th is a Week to Embrace Inspiration, Encourage Enthusiasm, & Treat Your Senses
With Mars in Aries, it won’t be hard to find the energy to get things done – especially when you infuse your projects with passion and creativity. Venus in Taurus asks you to treat your senses to decadent food and great music, art, and movies. Stimulating the senses inspires your creativity, which is then turned into action and energy by Mars in Aries.
Follow your intuition and let your creative center guide you now.
If you’re not sure how to embrace your creative passion, a personalized astrological reading can help you learn how to get in touch with your artistic center, based on your birth chart.
