Love Horoscope For May 17, 2025 — Choose The Most Authentic Path For Yourself
With Uranus in Taurus, the focus will be stability, securing and fully enjoying your life.

On Saturday, May 17, as the Sun and Uranus align in Taurus, prepare for the unexpected. The Sun is one of the luckiest planetary bodies in the cosmos. It brings to light what is necessary and helps you choose your most authentic path. Just as the Sun marks a phase of action and growth during daytime, you'll gain awareness that will help you discover what true love genuinely is.
While the Sun represents action and luck, Uranus is the planet known as the great awakener. Uranus brings the change you need, although it may not be what you had planned for or expected. As Uranus crosses into the heart of the Sun, adopt a new perspective or react differently to a shocking situation in your romantic life. With Taurus being one of the rulers of Venus, the planet of love, romantic themes figure heavily into the day’s energy. You realize that the great love you’ve always dreamed of is not something you could ever have planned for.
