Mini May Horoscope for Virgo: Saturn Goes Direct
Saturn’s going direct in Virgo today. Take a look at this post if you want to see what that means in general. Below is information for your particular sun sign.
Here’s an example of how to do a short little horoscope for yourself using keywords. (I have a list of keywords on the Practical Astrology home page. Scroll down to see them.) Also, if this mini horoscope seems off, you can look at the one for your rising sign if you know it.
Okay, so our keyword for Saturn in Virgo is going to be gloomy or gloominess, since that’s what Saturn in Virgo has seemed to bring. If there are people out there not having a gloomy time with the Saturn in Virgo portion of their lives, they’re not telling me about it.
Since Saturn’s in your sign, he’s in your solar 1st house. One of the meanings of the first house is vitality, health, well-being, energy, physical issues.
So let’s say Saturn in your first house has been giving you arthritis-like pains. Saturn loves to give people arthritis-like pains because they make people feel old and cranky, just like Saturn always feels. Saturn is the patron saint of feeling old. Most people, on the other hand, do not appreciate arthritis-like pains at all. So they try to do something about them. And still their backs hurt or hands hurt or knees hurt or wherever.
Then, come the time around May 16 when Saturn goes direct finally they find something that alleviates the pain in their joints. Maybe it’s just one of those arthritis bracelets, but whatever it is, it seems to work and the pain subsides. Woo hoo!
Things like that can happen. Maybe not that exact thing, but things like that. Again, take a look at Practical Astrology if these keywords don’t suit.

My comment is more of a question, how do i find my horoscope from may 16th 1974, and was this gloom and doom forcast then as well?
1Dixie, I don’t know how you can find your horoscope for May 16, 1974. I can tell you, however, that Saturn was in Cancer then, not Virgo, so it was not gloomy in in a Saturn in Virgo way. However, Saturn and Pluto were pretty close to a square at that time, so it wouldn’t be surprising if there was some doominess about that aspect.
