Aries weekly horoscope: What your star sign has in store for July 20 – July 26
It’s all about telling (and hearing) the truth this May, Aries.
All of your relationships must be founded on honest foundations, where all involved have clarity about their role, what they mean, and where they stand. If that doesn’t exist… make it a priority.
The Full Moon in Scorpio which opens May will bring everything to the surface anyway.
All secrets will be shared.
Be ready to give and receive information that surprises and disrupts.
This is all for the best.
Work & Purpose – Three of Cups
Mercury moves into Gemini mid May which makes your negotiations, collaborations, and career discussions much more playful, light-hearted, fun and interesting than usual!
Enjoy this energy and lean into it by bringing fresh, lively, good-natured ideas, pitches, improvements and teamwork suggestions to the table.
Work doesn’t have to be dry or formal all of the time. You can make friends with colleagues.
You can get more out of the time you have to spend working.
This May, bring the fun back into your work realm.

About Kerry King
Taurus
May is an important month for you, Taurus.
You will know where you stand by the end of it.
Many home truths coming to you
Love & Relationships – The Moon
The Moon card asks you to zoom in on the 2 Full Moons topping and tailing May, in between each of them, your love life will change.
Something will be revealed around the start of the month, a new secret, illusion or mystery will show its face and be exposed, and it will affect how you feel and who is closer to you.
Look out for Water signs- Pisces, Scorpio and Cancer.
By the end of the month you will know where you stand, who wants you, and who you want in return, and it will all feel like an exciting adventure again.
You don’t enjoy uncertainty and change, but they are necessary forces this month- making you work through something new that you never realised.
A “new normal” in love is coming.
Work & Purpose – The Tower
Pluto moves into retrograde on the 6th and The Tower echoes the theme of this transit- unpicking a power dynamic, collapsing a structure that doesn’t serve you well, speaking the truth about something that is unfair or unsustainable.
Something is your career realm or purpose needs dismantling and rebuilding, fit for purpose, fit for the future.
This repair work will be worthwhile and will last you the coming decade, so be prudent, diligent and honest about what needs to be done.
Bravery and focus now will yield success and prosperity later.
Omen to look out for – Eight of Swords
Look out for the number 8 or repeats of it.
Notice false or trick images, puzzles, illusions, broken mirrors or surfaces reflecting a distortion.
You have got something, or someone, all wrong because you’ve projected your assumptions.
Something will trigger you to look again this month, see the truth, and realise that most of this has been happening in your head vs reality.
And this will change everything.
Gemini
As May brings your sign’s season, celebrate and toast to the good life!
A big decision and a subtle invitation lie ahead Credit: @inlovewithcameras
Love & Relationships – Ten of Coins
It’s your sign’s season, from the 20th, so time to celebrate your friendships, romance, family and alliances, draw your inner circle even closer and toast the good life!
The Ten of Coins asks you to make commitments, declarations, shows of loyalty, and gifts to your loved ones.
Make sure the important people know they’re important to you!
The bonds nurtured this month will flourish, where your attention goes the energy flows, so make sure the right people are front of mind and being prioritised.
It’s a happy ever after kind of month.
Work & Purpose – Two of Swords
Mars moves into Taurus on the 18th which forces you to put down a marker on your purpose and priorities.
Ambition must have a direction, a goal, a trajectory otherwise it’s just wasted, scattered energy (which you know all too well).
The Two of Swords brings you to a cross roads around this date and you MUST choose a pathway.
No more procrastination.
Be informed, self aware, and alert to the options open to you, and pick the best one with the info you have to hand.
If it’s wrong, well, then you can just choose again!
Don’t be paralysed by choice.
Omen to look out for – Ace of Coins
Look out for the number 1 or repeats of it.
Look out for invitations (spoken or unspoken), welcomes, shy hellos and introductions, new doorways or openings or pathways that you haven’t been through or down before.
Take the untravelled route, say hello and greet a stranger, accept a new invite.
Something is brewing that could improve and upgrade your lifestyle and outlook.
Let it in.
Cancer
Feel as though your life has plateaued recently, Cancer?
Listen up, as May marks a poignant month for you.
Untangling tricky situations AND falling in love Credit: @inlovewithcameras
Love & Relationships – The Hanged Man
Something needs to give.
You have reached a stalemate, a limbo, a dead end.
Sometimes you just need to step back and regain your perspective because when you’re smothering a situation you can’t see it clearly.
So, step away from a relationship impasse and go do something else.
I suspect, by the time Gemini season rolls around on the 20th with its new ideas and insights, things will have subtly shifted and the way ahead will open up.
So, don’t make a move until you can see that opening.
Whatever has stuck will soon come UNstuck (but not through your force or influence).
Work & Purpose – Five of Wands
The Pluto retrograde, from the 6th, focuses your attention on an unfair and imbalanced power dynamic in your career realm.
A colleague or boss is taking liberties and you’re the one picking up the tab, and you’ve had enough of it.
The Five of Wands will present a situation that demonstrates this truth perfectly AND allows you to call it out clearly, with evidence, and in a way that doesn’t make things worse (although there may be some conflict or tension initially).
Hold the line, stick to your guns, be pro-active about suggesting a new, better way of organising or sharing or doing.
It WILL be accepted, and things WILL improve.
Omen to look out for – Ace of Cups
Look out for the number 1 or repeats of it.
Look out for new faces, chemistries and attractions arising when Venus moves into your sign, Cancer, on the 18th.
A new love or romance or intense friendship is coming towards you.
Sharpen your radar to intuit the forces of attraction flowing around you and be open-hearted to this wonderful new connection.
Leo
Good things await you this month as your ambitions unfold!
Career evolution, adventurous love and provocative feedback Credit: @inlovewithcameras
Love & Relationships – The Magician
A wonderful adventure in love and romance awaits you- maybe with an inventive Gemini, or certainly linked to Mercury moving into Gemini this month on the 17th and the start of Gemini season on the 20th– these dates are good for you.
Take a clean sheet of paper in your relationship realm and write your vision of love, your ideal happy ever after… and then believe in it, breathe life into it, act like it’s happening, and be open to accepting changes or nudges that make it so.
You are the creator and designer of your love life this May – wield this power wisely.
Work & Purpose – Seven of Coins
A subtle shift in terms of your purpose and therefore ambitions is unfolding- not overnight, and nothing radical, more like an evolution.
The New Moon in Taurus on the 16th is a good date to lay down your ideas, get clarity, answer unanswered questions, and form a loose strategy that can guide your decisions and direction.
Think long term.
Think about laying down the right foundations for long term growth and prosperity, rather than reacting to immediate forces.
Maybe retraining or location change or investment is needed.
Think far ahead and start to build that inspiring Leo kingdom.
Omen to look out for – Knight of Swords
Look out for arguments, squabbles, encounters with pushy people, or harsh feedback or words that spark your temper.
And don’t react, just sit with the feeling and look at what it triggers.
A sharp flick of this Knight’s sword is going to wake you up to something you need to address.
Don’t get mad… get real, and then get busy sorting it out! This Knight has done you a favour.
Virgo
May is all about balance for you, Virgo – make sure you get what you give.
Changes for the better are on the cards Credit: @inlovewithcameras
Love & Relationships – Death
This Pluto retrograde, from the 6th, triggers a phase of deep-rooted transformation in your relationships, and a change that comes from within you.
The theme is balance and fairness, give and take, equality, mutual support and care. This is non-negotiable for you now.
And if it’s not the case, in ANY relationship you serve, then you are ready to withdraw and rebuild elsewhere.
This certainty establishes new boundaries which, in turn, create a new pecking order and prioritisation.
Look out for new Scorpio folk who catch your attention, and could be your new happy ever after.
Work & Purpose – Four of Cups
The Full Moon right at the end of the month will activate a new sense of purpose and possibility in your career realm, but up until that point, you’re feeling a little listless and lethargic about your work.
Something isn’t ticking right, something isn’t serving up what it used to.
Don’t resist this sensation, but lean into it and pinpoint what it relates to, is caused by, and could mean you’re ready to expand, renew or change in your work world.
Transformation could be coming. Welcome it, because you are ready.
Omen to look out for – The Empress
Look out for the number 3 or repeats of it.
Heed the words of your mother or someone who exerts a maternal influence on you.
Make time to see folk who have had new pets, babies, or roles recently- they have a piece of wisdom for you that will make a difference.
Look out for Taurus and Libra folk who love you, they too have a message.
Love is all around you.
Libra
New bonds await you, Libra!
Challenges accepted and overcome Credit: @inlovewithcameras
Love & Relationships – Ten of Coins
A deep commitment is on the cards for you this May, Libra.
It could be with your partner, a new love, a friend, or an ally in your wider realm.
A bond forms that will never be broken and will be present for the rest of your life- what a wonderful gift, a life-long ally and person you can share your experiences and emotions with.
Invest in building your closest connections.
Make sure folk know how much you care.
Accept declarations and invitations and compliments with good grace- this is a month you will feel and see the love people have for you.
Work & Purpose – Strength
The Pluto retrograde on the 6th stirs up discontent that, as Mercury moves into communicative Gemini on the 17th, you’re ready to air, address, and overcome.
This is a month of facing your fears, dealing with dread, taking action on stuff that has created anxiety this year. And it feels amazing!
Firstly, to face it and feel empowered to be moving vs stagnating.
Secondly, because you will get results and things will change and the dread will evaporate.
Thirdly, because your self confidence and self esteem will soar as a result of your bravery.
Get to it, Libra, this is great work.
Omen to look out for – Ten of Wands
Look out for the number 10 or repeats of it.
Notice when you feel tired or fatigued or empty during the week, make a note of it, and see if there are patterns to this, repeat triggers or presences, environments or habits that sit beneath or around it.
You are being given the intel as to how your energy works, how it thrives (and dips), and therefore how you can nurture, manage and handle yourself to feel good all the time.
Scorpio
Ask yourself the real questions, Scorpio.
Do not run from the truth.
Changing dynamics and relationships – for the better Credit: @inlovewithcameras
Love & Relationships – The World
Mercury in Gemini and Gemini season, both in play from the 20th, bring a new surge of possibility, optimism and new life to your relationship realm.
Look out for Capricorns, for trips and travel, for a ending or fading of one thing that could neatly lead into something new.
Evolution and change are afoot, but they come with the promise of more, better, and easier.
This is about stepping up, improving, upgrading and changing for the better.
Think bigger.
Work & Purpose – The Emperor
Power dynamics are very much on your mind and it’s likely that an event in the workplace around the 6th (as Pluto goes retrograde) makes you realise you’re embroiled in something that doesn’t suit or serve you well.
The Emperor is a nudge to redraw the boundaries, reset the mood, change the habits, be different in order to force a shift in this interaction, deal, situation or alliance.
You are a forceful, powerful character and you can bend this to your will, things have slipped without you noticing true, but now you do and you can correct it.
Omen to look out for – The Lovers
Look out for the number 6 or repeats of it, especially 666 (don’t worry, it’s NOT the devil).
Notice people you feel hot / cold about, or who give you on / off energy.
Ask yourself “what do I want to change about this?” and let the real answer come from deep within, not off the tip of your tongue.
Ask yourself this question in the mirror and watch your reflection.
A relationship that has been inconsistent and unclear is going to reveal its true nature.
Sagittarius
The more you give, the more you get!
Play to win.
Doing the right thing and playing to win Credit: @inlovewithcameras
Love & Relationships – Six of Wands
Gemini comes into full force this month, from the 20th, and as your opposite or sister sign, this is good news for you! Your love life action is on fire!
The Six of Wands gifts you with a 6-week lucky winning streak in your relationship realm.
Use it to get who you want, how you want, and make your vision of love a reality you enjoy.
Look out for fellow lucky Fire signs too – Leo, Aries and Sagittarius.
The more energy you invest here, the better the outcome, play to win.
Work & Purpose – Justice
Mars in Taurus, on the 18th, brings up the need to commit, get on track, bed down where you want to build and make moves that will create a strong foundation.
The Justice card lets you know that it’s time to do the right thing in your career or life purpose.
Not what’s there, or easy, or a quick win, or what feels good in the moment… but what is right, for you and yours.
Think about this. Consider it deeply. Discuss and debate it. Kick it around and pressure test your options and ideas, and come to a conclusion.
Then, on the 18th, make a commitment or move in its direction. Good fortune will unfold for you.
Omen to look out for – Page of Wands
Look out for children playing, or nostalgic games or books or movies, or invitations to do or go someplace retro or linked to your own childhood.
Be playful and invest in a new pastime that is some kind of game in your leisure time.
Notice rules and structures that exist and uphold certain games, consider the reason for them.
You are going to receive an insight about “how to win” that completely changes the way you engage with something (or someone) and gets the right result (at last).
Capricorn
What’s yours is coming – reach out and take it.
You’re about to get all that you deserve Credit: @inlovewithcameras
Love & Relationships – Six of Coins
Taurus season (control, possessiveness, intimacy) turns to Gemini season (free-spirited, independent, carefree) mid May and your mood and relationship dynamic changes alongside it.
Six of Coins is the good karma card, so it’s a case of reaping what you sow.
Put the effort and high energy investment of time, care and attention into your close relationship at the start of the month and you’ll reap the rewards in the latter half.
Be generous, kind, helpful, caring.
Treat folk as you wish to be treated and you’ll get exactly what you deserve.
Work & Purpose – Queen of Coins
The New Moon in Taurus (May 16th) is a bit of career reboot and the Queen of Coins is walking with you to amplify your chances of success.
This is a time to rise, seek promotion, go solo, pitch an ambitious idea, be bold and confident.
You are capable and skilled, experienced and resilient.
You can do whatever you put your mind to, you are born for success, Capricorn.
Know this, believe this, and act like this.
What’s yours is coming – reach out and take it.
Omen to look out for – Three of Swords
Look out for the number 3, or repeats of it.
Notice where you feel soreness or stiffness in your body- maybe your hips, lower back, neck or jaw?
You are carrying some spiritual weight, some heaviness of heart, caused by the poor treatment from another person.
And it’s time to notice this baggage and process these feelings, to release them and feel healed.
When you notice the pain, sit a while, and acknowledge how you really feel, and give yourself permission to let this go.
Aquarius
Get busy this May, Aquarius!
Dare to dream big Credit: @inlovewithcameras
Love & Relationships – Ace of Swords
Venus in Cancer is a deeply romantic, intimate and intense phase for relationships, starting May 18th, and the Ace of Swords reveals that you will have a heart to heart with someone important that could be game changing.
Whatever it is, say it.
Get things off your chest. Confess, declare, propose, ask.
Dialogue is the glue of all relationships. Conversation is how we open up to each other.
Vulnerability is how intimacy is built.
So show and tell them how you really feel and draw closer together than ever.
Work & Purpose – Nine of Cups
What do you dream of doing? In work or in your own bucket list of life experiences?
Aquarius, you have big dreams and maybe a lifetime is only JUST long enough to fulfil them. What are you waiting for?
The Nine of Cups is an invitation to get busy, make plans, chase daydreams, manifest and pursue an inspiring passion.
NOW is the time to start.
The month ends with a Full Moon in Sagittarius which is the daydreamer’s moon, and will ignite a vision of what you want to do if one is not already in view.
Omen to look out for – Nine of Wands
Look out for the number 9 or repeats of it.
Notice Fire sign people in your realm (Leo, Aries, Sagittarius) who share a motivating experience, offer good advice, or help you out.
Follow an example of someone who has impressed you with courage or determination.
Use this fuel to overcome a hurdle in your own life and create your own success story to celebrate this May.
Pisces
Set strong foundations for the year to come.
Your future foundations are laid this May Credit: @inlovewithcameras
Love & Relationships – King of Cups
Emotional intelligence is your super power as you “get” what really drives other people and why they act as they do, even if they think they’re hiding it well.
May starts with a secret-revealing Full Moon in Scorpio so you’ll have your hands full helping people come to terms with stuff, and being a shoulder to cry on.
Be a good friend- they will appreciate it.
And then Venus moves into Cancer on the 18th which perks up your own relationship realm a LOT.
Expect intense romance, deep friendship, intimacy and connection on all levels. Bliss.
Work & Purpose – The Hierophant
You want to become an expert in your field, a thought leader, a person others come to for guidance and advice.
This is all within reach, especially if you have conversations and do research about your chosen area between the 2nd and 17th (whilst Mercury is in Taurus) and then activate your first step towards this promotion or education or mindset shift on the New Moon in Taurus on the 16th.
You may need a mentor to help you, and you may also need other folk to mentor yourself, to help consolidate your learning.
There’s no better way of learning something than to try and teach it to others!
Omen to look out for – Nine of Coins
Look out for the number 9, or repeats of it.
Look out for glimpses into your future, 9 years ahead or more.
Maybe via a conversation, colleague’s success, daydream, or insight into a plan coming to fruition that you have too.
Take that glimpse, breathe life into it, and visualise YOU living that life.If it motivates, then pin it down and make a plan of activation.
This is your vision!
