Look at the Sun sign of your child below and see what may be happening for him or her during the month of May…..

Aries(20/3 – 20/4)

May is the time of year when your Aries child’s self-esteem is a focus. Take the time to give your little Aries an emotional boost. Be extra kind and understanding. The New Moon Eclipse on the 10th is a great time to introduce the concept of pocket money if your Aries child is old enough. The Full Moon Eclipse on the 25th will highlight other cultures & their differences for your Aries child. Questions about religion may also arise under this Moon.

Aries mums should also take the opportunity to work on their self worth this month. Treat yourself to something that makes you feel good. Issues to do with how you earn your money may also be a focus for the first few weeks of May. 3, 13

Taurus  (20/4 – 21/5)

Your little Taurus falls in the spotlight for most of May. Make him or her feel special. Pay him or her lots of attention –he/she will enjoy it immensely. The New Moon Eclipse on the 10th May is a great time to start something new with your Taurus child that will benefit him or her. The Full Moon Eclipse on the 25th May highlights issues to do with sharing. Your little Taurus could be quite emotional around this time and feelings could run deep.

Taurus mums will enjoy their time to shine this month. Towards the end of the month you will probably feel the need to withdraw from all the attention and spend some time alone. Use the energy of the New Moon Eclipse to try a new look.

Gemini(21/5 – 20/6)

The month of May starts quietly for your little Gemini. He or she may enjoy spending time on his/her own for the first few weeks of the month. The New Moon Eclipse on the 10th May is a wonderful time to encourage your Gemini child to learn about stillness through meditation or just through listening to calming music. Gemini’s have a lot of mind chatter & it’s good to learn how to switch it off occasionally. The Full Moon Eclipse on the 25th highlights your little Gemini’s relationships.

Gemini mums may be quieter than expected during the first few weeks of May. By the end of the month they will be ready to take their place in the limelight, when the Sun moves into their sign. Use the energy of the Full Moon Eclipse on the 25th May to make changes to close relationships that are in need of an overhaul.

Cancer(20/6 – 22/7)

Your Cancer child will be focusing on his/her wishes, hopes and dreams this month. Friends will be very important. Use the energy of the New Moon Eclipse on the 10th May to introduce a new group activity to your little Cancer child. The Full Moon Eclipse on the 25th May highlights your little Cancer’s health, so make sure s/he eats well  & gets enough rest. This may also be a very emotional time for your Cancer child, as s/he is ruled by the Moon.

Cancer mums may be feeling very emotional themselves as we are in peak eclipse season during the month of May. Remember that it’s normal for you to feel this way. Use all that emotion to focus on your dreams and take steps to turn them into a reality.

Leo(22/7 – 23/8)

May is the month when a particular parent might receive a lot of attention from your little Leo. S/he may also talk quite often about what s/he wants to do as a grown up. The New Moon Eclipse on the 10th May highlights a parental relationship. The Full Moon Eclipse on the 25th brings wonderful energy for highlighting your Leo child’s creative side. Encourage you Leo child to really express him/herself under this Lunar Eclipse.

The Full Moon Eclipse on the 25th highlights your children, your creativity and also who you are as a person.

Virgo(23/8 – 23/9)

Your little Virgo may be quite philosophical during the month of May. Discussions about all sorts of different areas may be enjoyed. Exploring foreign cultures and places is also something your Virgo child might show an interest in during the first few weeks of the month. The Full Moon Eclipse on the 25th will highlight your Virgo child’s home & family, so don’t be surprised if your little Virgo becomes a homebody for a few days.

For Virgo mums, May is the month to explore your own belief systems. Use the New Moon Eclipse on the 10th to plan a holiday or start a new path of study. Many Virgo’s may start to think about moving, when the Lunar Eclipse occurs on May 25th.

Now is not the time for your little Sagittarius to push him or herself. The New Moon Eclipse on the 10th May is a great time to introduce a family pet. The Full Moon Eclipse on the 25th is your Sagittarian child’s time in the spotlight.  He or she may shine during this time, so encourage your child to step out and be seen!

Capricorn(21/12 – 21/1)

Fun and good times is the focus for your little Capricorn this month. Capricorn is traditionally known as the sign that is older than its years, but during the month of May, help your little Capricorn to tap into his/her lighter side. Introduce new board games or play games outside with a pet. Encourage your Capricorn child to be creative (but remember that whatever they make needs to be practical & useful). The Lunar Eclipse on May 25th will see your little Capricorn withdrawing for a couple of days. Encourage quiet time, curl up with stories and take walks in nature together.

Capricorn mums have the perfect opportunity to express their true nature throughout the month. Let your essence shine through! The Solar Eclipse on the 10th May is the perfect time to try for a baby or to break the news about an impending one. Use the energy of the Full Moon Eclipse to meditate and reconnect spiritually.

Aquarius(21/1 – 19/2)

Home and family are a major focus during the month of May for your little Aquarius. Although usually happy to be out and about, your Aquarius child may prefer to stick closer to home for the first 3 weeks of May. The New Moon Eclipse on the 10th is a great time to begin a redecorating project in your Leo child’s bedroom. The Full Moon Eclipse on the 25th highlights your Leo child’s wishes, hopes & dreams.
