New Moon in Taurus, 6 May: your 3rd house
Thursday 6 May brings the New Moon at 15°42′ Taurus, exact at 10:59 UTC, and for Pisces it falls in the 3rd house, the house of words, siblings and short journeys.
The tradition reads a New Moon as a seed rather than a harvest, and the May seed falls in your 3rd house, the Goddess of the old books: a fresh routine in the daily round: a new route, a new notebook, a new way of keeping in touch. In your 3rd house this May, Taurus, fixed earth ruled by Venus, gives it a slow and steady manner, interested in what lasts.
One way for Pisces to meet it in May: write the sentence you keep repeating to yourself, then ask whether it is still true.
Beyond the Sun sign
Your Sun sign is only part of 2027
A Pisces forecast reads the year by your Sun sign alone. The Road of Ages reads the turning points of your whole life from your own birth date, and shows where you stand on it now.

On Thursday 20 May the Moon comes full at 29°13′ Scorpio, at 10:59 UTC, facing the Sun in Taurus; for Pisces it fills the 9th house, the house of faith, travel and higher learning, from across the 3rd.
Astrology reads a Full Moon as an axis rather than a point, and the May axis runs through your 9th house, the God, showing what you truly believe, which sometimes differs from what you say you believe. For Pisces this May, Scorpio, fixed water ruled by Mars in the old books, gives it an intense and private manner. Read as an axis, from your 9th house to your 3rd, this May Full Moon runs along the axis of the near and the far: daily words and larger beliefs, errands and pilgrimages.
If you want something to do with this May lunation, find a teacher, a class or a book that is a little beyond you.
Planets changing sign or direction in May
Pluto turns retrograde in Aquarius, your 12th house, a slow turn spread over several days. The turn comes around 8 May, at 7°10′ Aquarius, and since a slow planet’s turn is felt over weeks rather than on a day, the tradition would look for it in Pisces’s hidden patterns, and prayer and the inner life through May.
Mercury crosses into Gemini on 9 May and so into your 4th house. Until 28 May, Mercury in your 4th house brings thought home: family conversations, household plans and memories that want sorting.
Mars enters Virgo on 14 May, your 7th house. Until 15 July, Mars in your 7th house brings heat to partnership: passion, frank disagreements and rivals who sharpen your game.
Venus enters Taurus on 14 May, your 3rd house. Until 8 June, with Venus in your house of words, the tradition reads a spell for gentle conversation and for the charm of the everyday.
The Sun enters Gemini, your 4th house, on 21 May at 06:18 UTC. Until 21 June, with the Sun in your house of roots, the season turns inward, toward the household, the past and the people who are family.
On 28 May Mercury moves into Cancer, which is your 5th house. Until 26 June, Mercury in your 5th house makes play of the mind: flirtation, games, creative writing and talk with children.
Love, work and money for Pisces in May
Venus begins May in Aries, your 2nd house, and enters Taurus, your 3rd, on 14 May, turning affection toward how you talk to someone you love, and the small messages that keep a bond alive.
Mars, the planet of effort, moves from Leo, your 6th, into Virgo (your 7th) on 14 May, so the drive of the month shifts toward business partners, clients and the contracts that bind them.
For money, no lunation or fast planet changes in your 2nd house (Aries) or your 8th (Libra) in May, so the tradition would put the month’s weight elsewhere and leave Pisces’s budgets to ordinary prudence.
Questions to carry through May
- Who in my daily round deserves more of my attention?
- What larger meaning orders my choices?
- Where do I become safe enough to be honest?
