This Week’s Astrology Is a Truth Bomb Waiting to Go Off—Here’s How to Use It

Weekly Horoscope: May 26 – June 1, 2025

Eris Crashes the Party—And She’s Not Taking Her Shoes Off

This week, the astrology is not here for your excuses, your distractions, or your tendency to bite your tongue to keep the peace. Nope. With Eris, the goddess of discord, stealing the spotlight—and teaming up with wounded healer Chiron in Aries—you’re being invited to (read: shoved into) radical honesty. Not the “let’s talk over tea” kind. The “I can’t fake this anymore” kind.

Mercury Retrograde Isn’t the Villain—You Just Don’t Like Being Inconvenienced

Let me guess: your WiFi glitched, you sent a spicy text to the wrong person, your Uber dropped you off three blocks away—and now you’re screaming “MERCURY RETROGRADE!” like it’s Beetlejuice.

I hate to be the one to break it to you (actually, I don’t), but Mercury isn’t up in the sky plotting revenge against your travel plans and printer ink. You’re not cursed. You’re just overdue for a reality check—and Mercury’s got the receipts.

Let’s talk.

Mercury’s Mood Swing: The Spellcasting Guide to Gemini Season’s Brainstorm and Breakdown

Gemini Season doesn’t come with an off-switch, and frankly, would we even use it if it did? Probably not. From May 20 through June 20, everything gets a little louder, faster, and wordier. Thoughts multiply like bunnies, conversations spawn subplots, and everyone suddenly has a hot take on everything—including whether pineapple belongs on pizza (Mercury in Gemini says yes, Mercury in Cancer says, “Are you okay?”).

But here’s the magical twist: this Gemini Season isn’t just ruled by the Sun—it’s also shaped by Mercury’s movement. And Mercury, that snappy little speed demon, is moving through two very different signs: Mostly through Gemini (its own house) until June 8, and then into Cancer for the rest of the season.

So what does that mean for your magic? I’m so glad you asked. Think of it like this: you’re switching from a feather quill to a fountain pen dipped in moonwater. The magic shifts, and so should you.

This Week’s Astrology Said ‘Main Character Only’—So Why Are You Still Playing Support?

WEEKLY HOROSCOPE: MAY 19 – MAY 25, 2025
By Storm Cestavani

Welcome to your spotlight week, Storm Chasers. The Sun isn’t just shining—it’s throwing on designer shades, grabbing a mic, and walking into your life like it’s ready to host its own reality show. This is the week where we move from the slow, sensory swirl of Taurus season into the caffeinated chaos of Gemini, all while trading comfort for curiosity, patience for plans, and naps for nervous energy.

But don’t worry—we’re not diving in without support. We’ve got backup dancers named Saturn, Neptune, and Pluto, all showing up with cameo roles to help you script your next breakthrough. So grab your favorite pen, charge your phone, and get ready to narrate your week like it’s a plot twist on “Grey’s Anatomy,” – and, yes, it’s still going after 22 years!

Feeling Mentally Overbooked? Gemini Season Says That’s the Point—Here’s Why

The Sun enters Gemini and suddenly everything feels like it’s moving in stereo. Welcome to Gemini Season—the time of year when life stops being a simple headline and turns into a choose-your-own-adventure novel written in real time. And right at the center of the action? The myth of Castor and Pollux—the heavenly twins who put the “both/and” into a world that desperately wants “either/or.”

These brothers weren’t just matching zodiac mascots; they were a cosmic paradox. Born to the same mother, Leda, Castor was mortal (sired by a mere man), and Pollux was immortal (fathered by Zeus, naturally). One could die; the other could not. So what happens when fate inevitably pulls the plug on Castor? Pollux doesn’t take it well. He offers to split his immortality with his brother. Zeus, apparently feeling generous that day, agrees—and the twins become the Gemini constellation, taking turns between Olympus and the Underworld.

It’s mythology’s version of a timeshare.

Mercury’s Got Beef: How to Survive a Week of Mind Games and Meltdowns

Weekly Horoscope: May 12–18, 2025
Theme: When Mercury Met Mayhem—Sassy Minds, Shaky Ground, and a Plot Twist with Punch

Welcome to a week where your brain thinks it’s hosting a TED Talk, your mouth tries to start a rap battle, and your comfort zone is treated like expired milk. Mercury is in the hot seat again—picking fights with Pluto and Mars like it’s auditioning for Real Housewives of the Zodiac. Meanwhile, the Sun cozying up to Uranus makes “surprise!” the default setting. Add two emotionally moody moons (Sagittarius and Capricorn), and you’ve got a week that says, “Adapt or snap.”

If you’re looking for still waters, you won’t find them here. But if you’re into shaking the dust off your mental habits and embracing a few glorious disruptions, congratulations: this is your moment. Let’s break it down day by day.
