What Your Zodiac Sign Needs To Know About The Week Of May 19 - 25, According To An Astrologer
This week, Saturn enters a new sign for the first time in over two years, creating a major shift for each astrological sign.

We have some significant astrological changes taking place during the week of May 19 - 25, 2025, and each zodiac sign needs to know something important about how this energy shift affects them. The Aquarius Moon early in the week is a catalyst for bigger changes later in the week. Starting on May 20, the Sun in Gemini will help us all communicate with each other more. Curious Mercury enters a new sign, Gemini, on the 25th, but the biggest energy shift occurs as Saturn enters Aries on May 24, kicking off a new chapter for the collective.
The lessons for this week will center on Saturn entering Aries, bringing to light the areas of life in which we need to bring out our inner warrior. Wherever you have Aries in your birth chart reveals where you need to level up and give it your all over the next several months. On the bright side, Aries helps us take action and start new plans with more bravery. Because the transit is linked to the Venus retrograde in Aries from earlier in the year, the romantic energy can also be on overdrive now. Close those chapters pertaining to romantic relationships from the past and embrace what awaits in the future.
What each zodiac sign needs to know about the week of May 10 - 25, 2025, according to an astrologer:
Aries

Aries, you need to know that your challenge for the week will be Saturn entering your sign for the first time in over 27 years. Saturn is uncomfortable in your sign because it needs structure and discipline, while Aries thrives on acting first and dealing with the consequences later.
Now is the time for you to consider how you are maturing and leveling up in all of your endeavors. If you’ve been slacking off on your responsibilities, Saturn is going to have you learn the hard way, so during the next three months, you’re going to have a taste of what Saturn may bring to your attention for the next two years. Saturn wants you to be patient and to mature.
Taurus

Saturn in Aries may show you what the best outlets might be to reduce stress. You may focus more on meditation, self-care, or you may even join an art or book club to connect with like-minded people. Focus on what makes you release stress.
