Weekly Horoscopes for May 13 - May 19, 2019

This week begins with a heavy start. With the moon being in Virgo in the beginning of the week, work schedules tend to increase.

Couples will find themselves more relaxed during this period. Singles will use the Opportunity to splurge on themselves, and maybe catch a fancy dinner solo downtown.
