Friday, May 22nd - The moon is void of course for most of the day, but we do see a minor aspect when the Cancer moon trines Chiron in Pisces very early this morning. The day has a distinct shift from water energy to fire energy when the moon exits its void and moves into Leo at 5:43pm EST. Early in the day you may prefer to spend time alone or in the company of few. Once the Leo moon comes in this evening you could potentially feel as though you want to get out of the house, or at least shake up your usual routine a bit. This evening the moon will join the sun in sextile and trine Saturn. If you've been feeling emotional or anxious at all the past couple of days, these aspects could help ease any discomfort. They may not get to the bottom of why you're feeling the way you are, but they will allow you to think logically and get out of your comfort zone. The Gemini sun opposes Saturn in Sagittarius tonight at 9:34pm EST. You may want to forget about getting anything done. This is an aspect that doesn't want to focus on anything, and instead just wants to socialize, explore and have fun. Those with fire and air heavy charts will especially want to get out and zone out. It's been a heavy few weeks astrologically, so enjoy the vibes tonight and treat yourself to a little enjoyment.
Saturday, May 23rd - Where yesterday failed to get anything beyond leisure and games accomplished, today will bring the intensity and laser focus needed to check things off our proverbial to-do lists. The Leo moon meets up with three planets/luminaries in sextile before evening: the North Node, Mars and Mercury. Later in the day Mars trines the North Node and the Leo moon joins Jupiter in conjunction. The day will have an interesting arc to it that you may notice, especially if you are around a lot of other people. Before 6pm EST there will be a need to make up for lost time. This could manifest in a lot of different ways, but the general vibe will be that people want to make progress in their various projects or goals. Some may appear scattered as they begin their work, but they will gain momentum as the day goes by. Mars trine North Node brings us energy to work on our purpose in the highest, biggest picture sense. Maybe this is different than the work you are currently doing, and perhaps you will resent the intrusion when something else demands your attention today. Widen your scope and think about it... what is truly the most important thing you should be doing? Tonight there will be time for philosophizing, banter and conversation. Mercury retrograde could rear its head for a bit this evening, but not in any lasting way. Maybe someone keeps mishearing you, or technology skips out a little bit. The moon and Mercury sextile will keep it light enough that you should be able to laugh about it soon after.
Sunday, May 24th - Not much to report on the astrological front today. The Leo moon trines Uranus in Aries early this morning and then moves void of course at 6:50am EST. You may find yourself coming up with a new idea or moving away from a familiar feeling into unexplored territory. New relationships may emerge, both romantic and platonic. Existing relationships could begin to evolve in surprising (but good!) ways. The moon is in void until early tomorrow morning, so it is advisable to wait on any decisions that may be too impulsive. As I explained last week, there are three planets in retrograde right now and the possibility of regret or panic is high. That doesn't mean you have to stop living your life and should remain frozen during the next few months. I would suggest instead that any spur of the moment decisions be considered for a day or two before being put into action. If possible, wait until the moon is out of its void tomorrow to sign paperwork or commit to anything big. Enjoy the newness the day brings in and keep your mind and options open for the time being.
Monday, May 25th - The moon comes out of its void period and moves into Virgo early today, at 4:52am EST. We have a large number of squares occurring over the next several hours... in fact, all of the major astrological transits that occur today are square aspects. Squares create a kind of resistance between energies that can be a challenge to navigate. The upside of this is that we often come up with new approaches and ideas as a result of meeting roadblocks. The Virgo moon lines up with Saturn and the Sun in square around 7am and 1pm, respectively. It may be hard to focus at the start of the day. Emotions could flare up, but a lot of this will be kept under the surface. The Virgo moon can make us process our feelings in a rational, logical way, even if this is not our typical way of handling them. This will especially be true for those with a Gemini, Sagittarius, Virgo and Pisces Sun or moon. As the day progresses, Venus squares Uranus at 1:09pm EST. Relationships with others will take on an impulsive quality, at least for the next day or two. Be careful with spontaneous decisions and sporadic changes made during this period. Any agreements or plans should be taken with a grain of salt. It is likely they will be shifted or changed outside the influence of this transit. Tonight Mars and Neptune meet in square. These planets are already quite different from one another. Mars brings fast moving, driven energy into the watery, dream-hazed world of Neptune. You could snap out of illusions that have been blinding you for the past lunar cycle this evening. This could be shocking, but will also be intensely illuminating. Spiritual breakthroughs come in, perhaps in the form of radical belief changes.
Tuesday, May 26th - The Mars/Neptune square from last night carries over into today. The moon opposes Neptune and squares Mars shortly after midnight, bringing all three planets into play with one another. Energy is boosted, particularly in emotional situations that have been causing pain or have been festering beneath the surface for a long time. This stagnancy will be lifted a little today. It could be upsetting or taxing in some ways, but now energy is flowing again and it can finally move in a new direction. The Virgo moon squares Mercury at around 4am EST. It may be a challenge to communicate emotions, even more so because of Mercury being retrograde at present. Certain areas of your life that seemed blocked or stuck could show you new facets this afternoon. Consider the first half of the day an ideal time for introspection and internal exploration. It may not be right for working with others, but important changes will be allowed to take place. This will assist with all relationships. This afternoon and evening the moon trines Pluto and sextiles Venus. After a night and morning spent making new discoveries, there will be an opportunity to implement them. The Pluto trine will help with seeing things for what they really are, and being able to take charge or lead others in a useful way. Tonight's Moon/Venus sextile will soften the day's energy, allowing for creative projects to gain momentum and relationships to harmonize a bit more. The moon moves void of course at 10:22pm EST. Take the night off, if possible...
Wednesday, May 27th - Mercury conjunct Mars this morning at 6:35am enhances communication, which comes as a welcome reprieve in the midst of the retrograde. This aspect is the embodiment of the phrase 'actions speak louder than words'. Others could be demonstrative with their intentions, which will help shed light on situations that seemed cloudy or vague this past week or two. This afternoon Venus and Chiron meet in trine, allowing for pleasant evolution in personal relationships and creative work. It is possible to make breakthroughs by healing wounds in partnerships, or through mending past hurts that are continuing to impact your current relationships. This process will feel a bit more joyful this afternoon than it has in recent weeks. The moon has been void of course all day and moves into the sign of Libra at 5:43pm EST. Gathering with folks of like mind tonight is recommended. The moon sextiles Saturn around 8pm, which will assist with focus and accomplishing tasks and responsibilities, likely with the help of others.
Thursday, May 28th - The astrology is light and airy today. The Libra moon trines the sun in Gemini this morning at around 6am. Our minds become active and inventive and collaboration moves to the forefront. There is a need to share stories and ideas and join together with partners, friends, family and peers. This is probably the best day this week to communicate with others, utilize technology and overcome adverse Mercury retrograde effects. The moon conjuncts the North Node this morning at around 10am EST and then trines Mercury and Mars this afternoon. Contacts are made with others that could prove helpful on multiple fronts. All of the major aspects of the day involve planets in air signs, and so social activity and networking are highlighted. It is possible that Gemini, Aquarius and Libra could receive offers or begin planning something big. Fire signs (Leo, Sagittarius, Aries) could find joy in companionship. Earth and water signs will find a bit of frustration lifted as projects they couldn't seem to start make headway.
Thank you! - AW
