Weekly Forecast: 5/23/22 through 5/29/22

 

Monday, May 23rd ~ We have the moon in the atmospheric dreamscape of Pisces all day, expanding our imagination and universal compassion. The Sun sextiles Jupiter in Aries at 7:04am EST, a benefic transit that can be felt all day. Generosity of spirit is the prevailing theme for the day, and we may feel compelled to uplift and share good fortune with others. Curiosity and boundless optimism lead the way. The moon sextiles Uranus at 3:53pm EST, which enhances intuition and brings along flashes of insight and feeling. Retrograde Mercury enters a sextile with Mars later on at 11:26pm EST, activating the mind and motivating us to clear out mental clutter in order to focus on something we are passionate about.

Tuesday, May 24th ~ Today is a busy day in the cosmos - the most active day until this coming Sunday. The Pisces moon sextiles the North Node and trines the South Node at 3:53am EST, activating karma and pulling us in the direction of our destiny. Venus and Saturn sextile at 7:05am EST, suggesting much can be accomplished through working together with others. We are likely to feel responsible for assisting a close friend or loved one, although this will feel more like a natural expression of care rather than a burden or resentful requirement. We could also be on the giving end of assistance; regardless, the energy is about harmonious support. The moon conjuncts Neptune at 8:41am and sextiles Pluto at 2:48pm EST. These transits increase imagination and compassion, while allowing us to transform heavy emotions into something productive and bright. The moon sextiles retrograde Mercury at 3:49pm and conjuncts Mars at 5:33pm EST before moving void of course for a literal five minutes. These transits activate the brain and bring along necessary momentum to accomplish a goal or task. The moon enters Aries at 5:39pm and this fire continues as Mars shifts into Aries a couple hours later at 7:17pm EST. Mars is at home in the sign it rules over, and will be here in its position of power until July 5th. This is a prime time for taking action, getting the physical body moving through exercise, sports, dance, or martial arts, and for being direct and not letting things build under the surface. The night is fiery and impulsive, and as the moon conjuncts Jupiter at 10:27pm EST to close out the day, we feel enthusiastic and excited. Some may experience this more as restlessness, but either way there is a desire to move and build in a new, unexplored direction.

Wednesday, May 25th ~ The moon is in trailblazing Aries all day, sextiling the Sun at 1:02am EST and ushering in its Waning Crescent phase. Now at lower light, the moon reflects inward and offers us a time of choosing ourselves first. This is not so much about selfishness as it is about figuring out what is needed for your growth at this point. Mercury and Pluto meet in trine at 5:48pm EST, though we feel this aspect for the entirety of the day. This is a detective's aspect, which offers us increased perception and the ability to pick up on small details. Writing and speech will be positively impacted by this transit, and much can be conveyed through each. The moon conjuncts Chiron in Aries at 10:05pm EST, which allows for deep healing of the physical body. It's a good evening for deep stretching, light exercise, and nourishment through delicious and nutritious foods. 

Thursday, May 26th ~ We have another full day of the moon in Aries, adding fire and impulse. We cycle through moods faster when the moon is in Aries, but don't hold onto any feeling for too long. We have no aspects until 5:05pm EST when the moon sextiles Saturn, allowing for focus and discipline related to personal goals to increase. The moon conjuncts Venus at 11:00pm EST, which brings passion and a desire to share our love with another. This could also be a creatively inspiring transit. The moon squares Pluto at 11:20pm EST which can result in resentment of authority or possible stubbornness creeping in. The moon is void of course from 11:21pm for about three hours time, creating a nice window for rest and relaxation. 

Friday, May 27th ~ Today is quite simple astrologically, but still packs a powerful punch. The moon is void of course in the sign of Aries until 2:22am EST when it moves into Taurus. This brings grounded energy with the moon in its sign of exaltation. Here, emotions are free to grow and flourish in the fertile gardens of Taurus. We could feel like sticking closer to home, or enjoying ourselves in nature. Venus and Pluto meet in square at 2:28am EST, though this transit will be palpable all day long. This can exaggerate feelings of jealousy and possessiveness in relationships, and can also lead to deep transformation of interpersonal connections. It is important to note that this transit does not cause jealousy, but instead shines a light on that which already exists in the pairing. You may find anxiety coming up around intimate relationships (romantic bonds, close friendships, or even business partnerships where there is some deeper level of connection) and feel somewhat insecure. The important lesson in this transit is to not act on the anxiety, because it can increase and pass on to the other person, which makes it feel even more all consuming. It is better to ride the feeling, journal it or talk to someone who is not directly involved. This allows for the tense momentum of the transit to slow and gradually come to a stop.

Saturday, May 28th ~ The moon is exalted in Taurus all day, and the energy of the sign of fixed earth rules over the day. The moon conjuncts Uranus at 9:50am EST, bringing increased intuitive powers. Some may seek out change today and find comfort in not knowing what comes next, while others will rail against such shifts and dig their heels in to cling to what they know. There will be little gray area here. Venus moves into its home sign of Taurus at 10:46am EST, where it will be until June 22nd. Many romances will flourish, and creative gifts in the fields of art and music will be impacted positively. It is possible for relationships to become more committed or stable under this transit, but the unfolding of this may occur slower than expected. The moon conjuncts its North Node at 10:33pm EST, allowing for inspiration to come in regards to our soul's karmic journey. We may feel compelled to reach out of our comfort zones in order to manifest something quite profound.

Sunday, May 29th ~ The Taurus moon sextiles Neptune at 3:48am and squares Saturn at 3:50am EST to begin the day. Imagination and spirituality guide us; we may prefer to keep plans loose and reject strict scheduling or limitations on our creativity and freedom. Mars conjuncts Jupiter in Aries at 6:30am EST, and we feel this all day long and into the next couple of days. This is a positive transit that expands our desire to act and increases physical energy and exuberance. Exercise will be important today, as this transit can build up aggression if we don't allow the energy to go somewhere through our movement. Travel and exploration will feel especially appealing today. The moon conjuncts Mercury at 7:14am and trines Pluto at 10:10am EST, allowing for deep thought and analysis of our mental state. We will likely be curious and may wish to dive into learning all we can about a certain subject. The moon is void of course from 10:11am until 1:22pm EST when it enters Gemini. This is a good rest period, or a time to be spent studying on your own. The moon sextiles Jupiter at 8:12pm and sextiles Mars at 8:54pm EST. We will feel enthusiastic and possibly a little scattered during this time. It can be challenging to center your energy, and you may have so much you don't really know where to begin. Have fun with it! Don't worry too much about focus, and instead enjoy the expanded perspective of being in this "big picture" view.
