Sagittarius Weekly Horoscope
Starting the week with the Moon in your relationship sector can be a mixed blessing and this could see relationship tensions rise just before it leaves on Monday.

Sagittarius Monthly Horoscope
There are a number of important developments this month but the one with the greatest personal impact will be the South Node’s return to Sagittarius on 5th May. This comes at a time when there is a growing amount of focus on your relationships, with its partner the North Node returning to your relationship sector likely to add to that. The lunar nodes are always in opposition and while they have their own mandate, they also work to balance each other. In this case, the South Node returns to help you access untapped potential while the North Node returns to give your relationships a voice a sense of direction. At the same time, a time when in terms of planetary activity it is all about your relationships, this will help to police a balance between your personal and relationship needs. Despite a need for balance and to ensure your own needs aren’t forgotten, this is a spectacular month on the relationship front. Not only do you have the North Node returning on 5th May but Mercury, the planet of communication on 12th May and Venus, the planet of love will turn retrograde here on 13th May. With Saturn turning retrograde in your communication sector on 11th May and Juno in retrograde motion in your friendship sector until 27th May, support for communication, friendship and relationship building will expand to include the past and second chances. Mars will be the one breakaway planet, leaving your communication sector on 13th May, but not before doing whatever he can to push through communication barriers. It is then that Mars will turn his focus, along with his passion and a need for action onto home and family matters. This puts a lot more significance on the dwarf planet Ceres’ return to your home and family sector late last month, with a chance first to begin a deeper dive into your needs and priorities on the home front. In the meantime, while the lunar nodes will turn their focus onto a balance between your personal and relationship needs from 5th May, this is when their policing of a balance between money coming in and money going out will end.
