General Daily Insight for May 20, 2025
Reflecting on what’s been working for us recently can show us how to move forward into the future. When the illuminating Sun in Taurus sextiles disciplined Saturn, we may see that the effort we’ve been putting in is finally starting to pay off. The emotional Moon then shifts into contemplative Pisces, helping us look at the situation on a deeper level. Once the Sun enters communicative Gemini at 2:55 pm EDT, we might want to tell others what we’ve come to realize!
Aries
March 21 – April 19
Your current financial picture might be more solid than it appears to the outside world. Still, as the high-energy Sun shifts into your 3rd House of Communication, you’ll have to carefully consider what you tell the people around you. While it may be frustrating when they make assumptions that aren’t quite accurate, letting them into situations that aren’t their business will certainly have costs of its own! Don’t hide for the sake of hiding, but be realistic about what others truly need to know.
Taurus
April 20 – May 20
Your role in your community could be a big part of your identity at the moment. However, any financial sacrifices you make to maintain your commitments probably add up over time. With the bright Sun bouncing into your 2nd House of Resources, you may want to take a closer look at the money flowing in and out of your accounts. You can’t save the world without taking care of yourself, so see to it that you’re not letting your valid needs slide!
Gemini
May 21 – June 20
Shaking up your public image could presently be a fruitful bet. Perhaps you’ve felt the need to take a restrained approach while working on an important project behind the scenes. Now that the vibrant Sun is bounding into your sign, you might have more room to say what’s going on. Technical details probably won’t be the most interesting part for your audience, so avoid dwelling on them. Instead, offer a personal touch — share how your efforts fit into your life story!
Cancer
June 21 – July 22
You may currently value a community that helps you stay on track as you study a compelling subject. In the end, though, whatever you’re learning needs to make sense to you in your own head, or the knowledge won’t stay with you. While the vital Sun sojourns in your 12th House of Contemplation starting today, consider temporarily stepping back from the group to reflect on everything you’ve taken in lately. This process might ultimately result in insights that others will also find helpful!
Leo
July 23 – August 22
Any pressure you feel to choose between pursuing your personal goals and satisfying your social needs could soon turn out to be illusory. As the lively Sun shifts into your 11th House of Community, what you’ve learned lately while following your ambitions may be of great interest to your friends and acquaintances. Some of them might ultimately be worthy collaborators for you. Avoid rushing to lock a commitment down prematurely — even if you already know each other, follow a proper process.
Virgo
August 23 – September 22
Figuring out your path forward could require your attention. Although you may have thoughtful companions you can trust, some decisions are yours to make alone as the blazing Sun powers into your 10th House of Purpose. You’ll potentially need to take a bit of space from your loved ones as you deliberate. It’s not wrong that you care about them, but what’s best in the long term might not be what makes them comfortable in the moment. Don’t let the issue at hand get clouded.
Libra
September 23 – October 22
The boring work you’ve put in over time is currently likely to show results. As the passionate Sun pushes into your 9th House of Adventure, you may have a few ideas for expanding your horizons. Whether you’re studying a new subject or going on a physical trip — or both! — you’ll enjoy the experience more if you’re not worrying about responsibilities hanging over your head elsewhere. Lean on any processes and alliances you’ve developed to keep the routine things humming in your absence.
Scorpio
October 23 – November 21
The basics may seem to be nailed down in a significant relationship of yours. Given that foundation of stability, you might think about taking things to the next level. With the potent Sun poking into your 8th House of Intimacy, you’re likely craving emotional depth in your connections. As you pursue that, keep balance in mind. Don’t push your companion to share on a level you wouldn’t — but don’t dump more of your stuff on them than they can hold either.
Sagittarius
November 22 – December 21
Keeping your surroundings in order could seem particularly important now. At some point, you might need to look up and see who’s around you. Once the refreshing Sun pushes into your 7th House of Relationships, life may become a little less predictable — you can’t control what other people will do or say. They’ll probably tell you things you wouldn’t have thought of on your own, though, and sometimes that’s good for you. Welcome the opportunity to get a fresh perspective.
Capricorn
December 22 – January 19
Your efforts to formulate a plan that will perfectly satisfy all your desires might have to reach their end at present. As the dynamic Sun moves into your grounded 6th house, simply starting wherever you’re at and doing something may give you more useful feedback than any amount of additional mental churning ever could. Your basic idea is probably reasonably solid, so have faith in your judgment — whatever else you need is likely to come to you on the fly!
Aquarius
January 20 – February 18
Making sure those who matter to you are in a good place could be comforting. Once that’s settled, you can take time for your own stuff! Starting today, the juicy Sun is shifting into your 5th House of Pleasure. You might feel a little more selfish than usual as you throw yourself into your hobbies and other personal passions. Remember — when you’re happy, you tend to spread your good mood to the people around you. Keep this potential benefit in mind!
Pisces
February 19 – March 20
Being thoughtful and deliberate in the way you present yourself to the world can bring you important rewards at this time. That said, you deserve a place where you don’t always have to do that — somewhere you can let your hair down! As the nourishing Sun slides into your 4th House of Home and Family, your focus may shift to your private life. Follow your intuition about what makes you feel your best, and figure out how to get more of it.
