✦ Fire Month · May 2026

Three planets light up Aries - Mercury, Mars & the Sun.

From May 11 onward, three planets gather in the fiery sign of Aries. Mercury, Mars, and the Sun each carry a different task - thought, action, and identity - and together they bring a month of decision, momentum, and quiet refinement.

Three transits, three lessons. Here is what each one is asking of you.

✦ May 11 - 15

Mars Mercury Sun Conjunction in Aries.

Mercury, planet of thought, conjuncts the Sun and Mars in Aries from May 11th to 15th 2026 - a complex mix of planetary friends and enemies that gives you a new promise and an injection of will and energy.

Your Predictions →

You have powerful mental energy and a competitive streak - perfect for last-minute deadlines, concise writing, and taking charge of a situation that needs courage and initiative.

✦ May 11 - 25

Sun in Krittika.

The Sun is in Krittika, spanning Aries and Taurus from May 11th to 25th 2026. Ruled by Agni the Fire God, its symbol of a Flame or Razor cuts away negativity and excess.

Your Predictions →

From May 15th, cautious Saturn slows your plans - take extra care. The Shakti ‘To Burn’ sees you purifying a situation, with the courage to face events head-on.

✦ May 11 - 29

Mars in Ashwini.

Mars is in Aries-Ashwini from May 11th to 29th 2026 - his powerful mulatrikona sign. The Aries section of your chart catches fire, and Ashwini’s Shakti for Quick Action sees you moving swiftly. Your first instinct is probably best.

Your Predictions →

From the New Moon of May 16th, Mars is squeezed between Sun and Saturn - build your position gradually, in line with authority. Channel any leftover fire through a vigorous fitness program.
