Taurus — Saturday 23 May 2026

*Mars is in your sign*, which should make you feel driven and purposeful, and instead you've been standing in the kitchen for four minutes wondering if this friendship is actually good for you or if you just have adjacent routines. **Venus in Cancer is squaring Neptune today**, which means your feelings about the people you love are both genuine and slightly delusional. That friend who always needs something — you're going to find them charming again today, even though nothing has changed. This is not growth. This is Neptune dissolving your memory. The **Sun conjunct Uranus** is pulling Geminis in every direction at once, which means at least two of your friends will cancel on you with increasingly elaborate excuses. You'll say you don't mind. You will mind. **Venus sextiling Mars** does at least give the afternoon some warmth. A conversation you've been putting off will go better than expected, mostly because the other person does the work. Let them. At exactly 9pm, you'll be sitting somewhere comfortable, telling yourself you're about to text someone back, and doing absolutely nothing of the sort.
