A date like the 20th of May is standing on the verge of something new, while at the same time responsible for the finishing of different family matters and issues of the past. It is in the nature of those born on this date to get tied to the image, to emotion, to the reflection of their own Soul seen in others. They will have trouble letting go of relationships and circumstances, even if they stop their own progress because of their resistance to change and oblivion.

May 20th Horoscope

MOON – PLUTO – (Pluto) – MERCURY

The Moon and Pluto always tell the story of life and death, and with Mercury involved in their contact, it is quite a story to be told. There is a lot of double standards in this date, emotional ties that are talked about and rationalized, and many things in the mind of a person born on May 20th that seem impossible to separate into logical wholes. On the other hand, their mind is deep and incredibly thorough, allowing an understanding of the world of emotions untypical in their everyday surroundings. With such entities in their planetary row, they are prone, or may be subjected to emotional blackmail and manipulation, all sorts of phrases that could keep them in one place for too long, inadaptable to change that must come at some point.

Love and Emotions

There is depth in emotions of Taurus representatives born on the 20th of May that is extremely hard to come by in other people. This will make them unique but sometimes also lonely, for their attempts to explain their state of heart could be unrecognized by those they love. The strings attaching them to others will be strong, karmic relationships bound to come, and the tendency to sink into dark or burdening bonds sometimes hard to control or tame. Driven by gravity of physical pleasure and love, sexuality will play a truly important role in their romantic life as they grow older.

Learning to accept their own quality of love and the depth of heart they carry within, they will start the process of liberation from family patterns and negative emotions that lead them into relationships that burden their Soul. They should belong to the Earth itself, in sync with its breath and the Universe, so they can create and manifest the deep love they actually need. They are to become One with someone and shouldn’t settle for less.

Sabian Symbol

The Sabian symbol for Taurus representatives born on May 20th of any year that isn’t a leap year:

"Two Cobblers Working at a Table"

The Sabian symbol for Taurus representatives born on May 20th of a leap year:

"A Peacock Parading on the Terrace of an Old Castle"

These symbols in combination speak of a pose and something we see first when we observe a certain situation. They are intertwined by tradition and something old, something to set a foundation for every beautiful thing we wish to show to the world. Although a peacock is parading driven by something as simple as his primal nature, the basis for his growth is seen in wealth and success, someone's ability to build and create something solid. The positive turnout from these words comes through one's self-esteem as they work hard and create lasting things they can grow on. The negative one would serve someone else's ego and could lead to hard work being claimed by another person only to serve as a build-up to their position of power.
