You may be a private person at times, but being in the public eye is good for your personal life as May begins. That's because romantic Venus and energetic Mars are in your 10th House of Career, where you can get more attention at your job or in any visible position of responsibility. A key to making this magic happen is to be more creative and playful instead of allowing your obligations to bog you down with seriousness. Showing the joyful and creative sides of your personality makes you particularly attractive now. If you're already in a relationship, the pleasure you derive from being a leader can enrich the experiences you have with your partner. However, Venus and Mars are in fiery Aries, which is more about taking chances and living in the moment than seeking the long-term security that's probably more appealing to you. Enjoying the present is a better plan than thinking about the future. Sure, it may feel irresponsible or immature to act this way, but the timing is right for it now.

That begins to shift on May 11 when Mars moseys into stabilizing Taurus and your 11th House of Friends. Venus follows suit on May 15, completing a social shift toward caution and continuity. Pals and co-workers could be reliable sources of support and introduce you to potential partners. Meeting someone through an organization or when working for a common cause is another plus for your current relationship or in seeking a new one with these transits.
