Hi there! I will be reading cards and doing astrological charts at Leapin Lizards in Portland on May 23rd this month from 11am-5pm, and at the Leapin Lizards Freeport location on May 25th (same times). You can call either store to book an appointment with me ahead of time.
Friday, May 1st - Happy Beltane / May Day! This morning the Libra moon joins the North Node in conjunction and sextiles Jupiter, creating opportunities for emotional expansion. You could be drawn into events with significant people in your life. Pay attention to those you run into and hear from today... they may be part of big changes that are being orchestrated in your life now. This evening the Libra moon continues its activity and squares Pluto and opposes Uranus. This might aggravate any ongoing issues with power and control you're experiencing from the Pluto retrograde, and could create a need for freedom that seems to come from out of the blue. Consider why you are looking for control in situations. What about the specific outcome you're seeking is so appealing? Is that the only way you could find happiness? Think about ways you could expand on this outcome. For instance, if you are applying for jobs and are very attached to one specific job in particular and find yourself getting worked up every time that you think about NOT getting the job, challenge yourself. Imagine an even better job than the one you thought was the best, or imagine getting paid to do your favorite hobby. Picture yourself working at a job you originally thought would be unappealing, but imagine it in the best light possible. If you open yourself up to other outcomes, the energy is more free to flow and can bring you more abundance than you could have guessed.
Saturday, May 2nd - The day before the full moon is when we really start to see the fruits of our labor from the past month. Events are triggered and results start coming in. Whatever you've been focusing on for the last moon cycle will begin to come to fruition this weekend. This day in particular is amazing for artistic pursuits and partnerships, particularly those that are romantic or creatively based. The Libra moon trines Venus this morning, suggesting that the energy will be sensitive, sensual and partner-oriented. The moon will be void of course today from 10:04am until 9:48pm EST. While changes might be occurring, it is best to be prudent in your reaction to those changes during the moon's void. If you jump to action too quickly, it may be hard to readjust if you feel differently later on. Wait until later tonight or tomorrow to make your move. This is especially true for Libras, Geminis and Aquarians. The moon moves into Scorpio tonight at 9:48, making it an ideal night for spiritual pursuits and intense communion with loved ones.
Sunday, May 3rd - Today is the day of the Flower Moon, a huge day in the northern hemisphere marking the full entrance of springtime. This weekend begins the planting cycle for gardens and farms, and enhances fertile energy in the northern part of the world. Tonight the moon opposes the sun at 10:42pm EST, bringing about a full moon in the sign of Scorpio. Scorpio full moons are magical. Any occult or spiritual interests would be enhanced tonight under the impact of the moon. It is said that the veil between worlds is thinnest during full moons, and if there was one sign which would magnify this, it would be Scorpio. If you are interested at all in lucid dreaming, dream interpretation, channeling, divination or any other form of mystical studies, tonight would be the night to practice. Earlier in the day Mercury opposes Saturn at around 4:36am, which could make communication a bit of a struggle. You won't be able to keep things light today if you are feeling something more underneath. Saturn will force us to remain focused and honest with others. The Moon trines Neptune this afternoon, which only increases intuition and spiritual energy. Get outside, garden, and spend time being recharged by nature. Even if you aren't someone who wishes to practice spirituality in any formal way, you can benefit by being outside and soaking in the day's energy.
Monday, May 4th - Today is very intense and there is a lot of physical energy and vitality to draw from as the day moves on. I suggest being as active as you can today. This will help burn some of the energy and may help stave off tempers and annoyances. The Scorpio moon is already quite a dramatic moon, and it only becomes more so as it joins up with Pluto in sextile, Chiron in trine and Mars in opposition. These transits will flare as the intensity builds throughout the morning and afternoon. This is a 'fire-meets-water' type of day, where feelings could bubble up beneath the surface and spill over without much notice. The Sun squares Jupiter this morning which could create a confined sensation. Are others boxing you in? It may feel that way, particularly to Aquarius, Taurus, Leo and Scorpio. The moon moves void of course at 9:50pm EST, which actually may offer some relief in the way of random seeming outbursts. I should mention that any outbursts that occur today may FEEL random, but are actually rooted in very real emotional threads that have been building for the past few weeks. These are not problems that can be fixed today. I stand by my advice of being physically active this afternoon and evening... play a sport, go for a walk, do some cleaning, etc. While at the beginning it may seem like you're distracting yourself, the physical activity will actually help you work through burdensome emotions.
Tuesday, May 5th - The moon exits its void at 7:13am EST and moves into the sign of Sagittarius. For those who are celebrating Cinco De Mayo, this is a perfect day for socializing and adventuring. If you don't know much about the holiday, it is a good day to learn! Sagittarius highlights other cultures, travel and higher education. The moon moves into conjunction with Saturn this morning and later forms an opposition to Mercury. The beginning of the day is best spent getting work done so you can enjoy yourself tonight. Later on you may be drawn to converse with others, but it is advisable to keep things light and airy this evening. Sagittarius, Pisces, Gemini, and Virgo in particular could hit walls when trying to get deeper or share feelings with others. It is better to focus on being in the moment tonight. Learn new things and listen. Open your ears up rather than pushing to be heard.
Wednesday, May 6th - Very early this morning the moon squares Neptune and moves into sextile with the North Node. You may be drawn to others magnetically as the day carries on. Who do you find yourself wanting to spend time with today? There are reasons for your feelings, and we can see them clearly when we examine the Sun/Pluto trine and Neptune/North Node inconjunction today. The Sun and Pluto are opposites; one is warm, visible and engaging, the other distant, cool and subterranean. Pluto has been on this same path before, and as it moves retrograde we are brought back to places we may have thought we were done exploring. This brings up power dynamics, and the need for control in our lives. Neptune and North Node in quincunx create a veil over relationships, masking the truth. You could be traveling down the same road with the same people over and over, and today is the ideal day to break out of any circular paths. This will require awareness, and a fearlessness when it comes to being upfront and clear. Don't make the same moves and expect different outcomes, particularly on this day! The Moon trines Jupiter and Uranus today, which will help you break out of old habits.
Thursday, May 7th - The Moon opposes Venus this afternoon before moving void of course at 1:52pm EST. The morning and early afternoon are best for working on projects solo and drawing energy so that when you meet up with others later in the day you will be able to pull your own weight. If you don't take advantage of this time this morning it may be a challenge to get anything done and you might find yourself frustrated with others tonight. This is especially true for Sagittarius and Gemini. The moon is only void for about 25 minutes, coming out at 2:17pm EST and moving into the sign of Capricorn. At this point the energy will shift from independent study to collaboration. This could apply to work, creative projects, or simply spending time with others. Venus moves into Cancer tonight at 6:51pm. This exacerbates the need to be with others. Over the next few weeks, family, home life and romance will be highlighted. Nostalgia could arise, and intuition will be heightened.
Thank you ever so much for your support. -AW
