(Don't know your rising sign? Find it here.)

♈ Aries (March 21-April 19)

This month, set aside some time to celebrate your life, yourself and your ancestors because, as an Aries, you are usually thinking ahead and looking for the next thing to do without taking a break to enjoy and find satisfaction in what you have already accomplished. Attending and taking part in Memorial Day activities that will be taking place across Sarasota on the last weekend of the month, such as the city's Main Street parade, events at Sarasota National Cemetery or the Memorial Day 5K Hike downtown, are simple ways to commemorate the sacrifices of others.

♉ Taurus (April 20-May 20)

Happy Birthday, Taurus! As a gift, this month will bring you a lot of wisdom and confidence in yourself to keep building your future and making your dreams come true. So don't hesitate and keep working hard, because all that you are doing will be greatly rewarded at the right time. Go ahead and take a tour of Sarasota’s bars and grab a bite to eat or something to drink to celebrate the rewards that are coming your way.

♊ Gemini (May 21-June 21)

Try to remain calm and just be yourself this month, since your carefree spirit will be put to the test by challenges for you to overcome and then grow stronger and wiser. You already have the resources and capacity to endure and triumph over the challenges of your journey. Keep in mind that Sarasota's stunning beaches will always be there to console you and give you a breath of fresh air when life becomes difficult.

♋ Cancer (June 22-July 22)

This month, you will feel the need to change and try new things, so when the impulse strikes, give in to it and go out and explore. Remember that, as a water sign, you like to constantly be on the move. It’s part of your nature. Luckily, there is always something new and interesting to do in Sarasota, so when the need strikes, you should just check out one of our many great new restaurants.

♌ Leo (July 23-Aug. 22)

This month promises a lot of fun. As a Leo, you are always passionate about what you love, and as you start feeling excited about summer, roll with it and start celebrating summertime early. Get the party started Friday, May 5, at El Melvin's "Cinco De Mayo Block Party," a free celebration that starts at 11 a.m. and goes all the way until 2 a.m.

♍ Virgo (Aug. 23-Sept. 22)

For you, May is a month of introspection and self-care because it's Taurus season. Your main priorities should be to pay attention to your intuition and connect with your higher self. Try to set aside your rational mind and let your intuition rule instead. To tap into that side of yourself, consider taking a manifestation or meditation class at The Higher Realm to help you align and develop your psychic abilities.

♎ Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 23)

Expect wonderful things to happen to you this month. Keep your spirits high and share your kindness and light with the people around you, because the more that you give, the more you will receive. You can have a great opportunity to show your generosity at Sarasota's Summer Charity Block Party, which raises money for suicide prevention efforts. The event takes place on Friday, May 19.

♏ Scorpio (Oct. 24-Nov. 21)

This month, new opportunities will be waiting for you. Therefore, keep an open mind about change and progress. Sometimes letting go of the past is the only way for you to seize new opportunities, and Sarasota is the perfect place to do just that, since out city is constantly growing, evolving and bringing lots of new opportunities to its inhabitants.

♐ Sagittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 21)

This month will feel like a dream to you, and not because Sagittarius is the dreamy sign of the zodiac, but because you will start noticing how your life is taking shape and how everything is falling into the right place. Keeping a memento from this period of your life and the positive experiences you will have may serve as a useful reminder in the future. You can find beautiful handmade jewelry, pottery, ceramics, photography, paintings, clothing and more at the third annual Downtown Sarasota Spring Craft Fair this May 6 and 7.

♑ Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19)

You'll have the chance to be all that you can be in May. Because you don't need success or fortune to be happy, you should aim to avoid judging yourself too harshly. This will make life easier for you. Taking a hike at Oscar Scherer State Park may help you realize that life can be beautiful without having much in the way of possessions.

♒ Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 18)

Focus on turning the page and taking full advantage of this month by being yourself, because Aquarius people are known for being joyful and sincere individuals who always look to the good side of life. Don't let the overpowering feelings from previous months carry over to May. Instead, stay loyal to yourself, and if you feel like grabbing a mango off a tree on the streets in Sarasota, do it.

♓ Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20)

This month will leave a bittersweet taste in your mouth because you might have to accept reality for what it is and not for what you want it to be. Take the best aspects of the water sign to accept and adapt to whatever occurs to you this month without losing your essence. And what better way to celebrate acceptance than by attending the Be Fabulous Music & Arts Festival on Saturday, May 13, to support the LGBTQ community?
