Aries
Crazy=Genius by Panic! at the Disco
You know that saying: "That's just crazy enough that it might work"? That seems to be your running theme for this month. After all, you're already on fire - or rather, you're a Fire Sign. That idea you're kicking around right now may seem crazy to everyone else, but in your gut you already know it's the next move. Don't listen to anyone else; you've got this. Trust your own instincts; even the smallest spark could mean a huge change for you.
Taurus
Last Hope by Paramore
Keep going. Keep pushing. Your time isn't up yet. Even when everything feels hopeless, even when the world seems like it'll keep turning without any change or improvement, remember that everything is changing all the time around you. People are changing not only their own minds, but the minds of others. The world is changing, and your world is changing, too. So keep going. Even the smallest event can change everything for you, and that change is coming to you soon. You just need to hold on long enough to reach it.
Gemini
The Bad Thing by Arctic Monkeys
Okay, so maybe don't do THIS SPECIFIC bad thing, but ask yourself: Are there things you've kept yourself from doing because someone else told you it wasn't right for you? Whether it's past religious guilt or a controlling partner, it's not always easy to realize that false ideas of right and wrong are so deeply implanted in your subconscious. Start releasing the guilt that's ingrained in your daily behavior and start living for yourself, not for others. Break that tie that's making you feel trapped. Try something new that you've been avoiding because other people have scared you off from it. Do the "bad" thing, and enjoy the freedom that comes with it.
Cancer
Thrust by Ashnikko
What do you really owe them? No, really - what do you owe anyone that outweighs what you owe yourself? You owe yourself the freedom to behave, dress, and present the way that you want to. You don't owe them comfort or control over who you are. If they aren't paying your rent, they can't control the way you live - and for that matter, even if they are, they have no right to dictate who you are. Remember, you aren't a doormat, so don't let other people walk all over you. Stand up for yourself and start living life on your terms, not on theirs.
Leo
No Saving Me - The Farm Sessions by Framing Hanley
There is always hope for you. There is always a chance to salvage what's been lost. There is always a chance to atone for what you've done. You are loved by someone whether you know it or not. You are appreciated and respected, not just tolerated. People do want you around. If all you take from this month is an affirmation that you are loved, then that's enough. If you are struggling, tell someone; there are always people who are willing to help if you need it. Don't let this define who you are when you're made up of so much more than just this. Keep pushing forward until you find that you're living again, not just surviving.
Virgo
White Teeth Teens by Lorde
Who are you maintaining the facade of high school perfection for? If it's for yourself, ask yourself why holding on to that level of false impropriety is so important to you. What are you afraid you'll be giving up if you begin to live authentically? If it's for someone else, then ask yourself why pretending to be someone you're not is worth their approval. Everyone has a dark side. Absolutely nobody is perfect, they just pretend to be. Allow yourself moments of imperfection. You deserve the right to mess up just like everyone else. After all, you're human, too.
Libra
Slumber Party by Ashnikko feat. Princess Nokia
Sapphics rejoice: May is meant for fun. Look at the facts - first, there's Taurus Season, ruled by Venus (your own planetary ruler), then Gemini Season, ruled by fast-paced Mercury. Be safe, of course, but why not enjoy yourself? Now's not the time to be shy about what you want. Manifest what you want, yes, but don't be afraid to reach out and ask for it, either! You never know when someone might say yes - and that could launch your entire summer in an unexpected direction. Just go with it; you deserve it!
Scorpio
Dress by Taylor Swift
No more pining. Do it. No more stalling, no more procrastinating, and most importantly, no more fear. Life is too short to spend it pretending you're in a slow burn fanfiction. Do you want to remember the wasted time or the moments together? You know what you want, so go and get it. You'll never get an answer if you never ask, so don't wait a moment longer. Make your move, and watch your life change forever.
Sagittarius
Numbers by the Cab
Things may have gotten a bit more serious than you expected at first, but you're here now, and there's no changing the way you feel. Don't waste another second; tell them. You are loved and you deserve that love. They deserve it in equal measure, so show your appreciation for them any and every way you know how. Out of everyone in your orbit, you met them specifically for a reason. Whether that reason is a permanent one or a life changing one, this connection is definitely significant, so embrace it. Make sure that they know that, for now at the very least, they're the only one.
Capricorn
Hear Me Now by Framing Hanley
It wasn't all that you hoped it would be, and now you feel trapped in a situation that quickly turned to empty promises. Maybe you were deliberately misled, and maybe you just grew apart; either way, it's time to cut the ties and move on. Before you can move forward, though, you need to pick yourself up, and that requires help. Ask for it. Don't be afraid. You won't be judged just because this situation fell through; nobody really could have seen it coming, whether they tell you they did or not. It's much harder to see a way out while you're still trapped inside, so let someone else lead you out. You're ready to step into the light and dust yourself off, so don't hold yourself back for something that no longer serves you. Let go, and be ready for what comes next.
Aquarius
The Cleansing by Nothing More
You've never been one to just go with the flow or take what others tell you at face value. You're a free thinker; now should be no different. The evidence is in front of you to decide for yourself, so block out the loud voices and uphold what you know to be true. You need to fight, not just for yourself, but for everyone who is being held down, oppressed, and treated unfairly. Decency is a human right. You are entitled to that decency, love, respect, and humanity. You are entitled to the change being affected by people around the world who refuse to be quiet any longer. Be part of the change to help those less fortunate than you; they shouldn't have to face this fight on their own. And if you are fighting already, reach out to likeminded people for help. You don't need to shoulder this weight all on your own. Remember that you are deserving of more than what you have been given, and you are so, so loved.
Pisces
Disloyal Order of Water Buffaloes by Fall Out Boy
Not everything is perfect, but nothing has to be perfect to be enjoyed. In fact, the imperfections are usually what make things stand out. There's no point trying to ward off love until everything is perfect because nothing ever will be; you'll just be wasting time that would be better spent enjoying yourself. Take a break when you need it, sure, but remember that avoiding something is an almost surefire way to find it. Remember that images on a screen are exactly that. They aren't a representation of the reality of a situation, so stop trying to replicate or mimic someone else's relationship and focus on building your own. Chances are that perfect image you see is nothing like reality; it would be like trying to put a puzzle together only to realize the box shows a different image entirely. Trust your own instincts about a situation, not what the internet makes it out to be, and you'll find that you're much less worried about making everything absolutely perfect.
