Monthly Energetic Overview ​​

​

May Astrological Outlook!

​

We clear the personal planet retrograde shadow parade this month! We are out of Eclipse Season as well, so we really begin to see the real vibe of 2025 for the first time so far this year! ​

We begin the month by wrapping up the Venus-Neptune storyline. They meet for the 3rd and final time on 5/2. What's different about this conjunction is that it takes place in Aries for the first time in our lifetimes! The other two conjunctions took place in Pisces! This begins a new 14-year cycle with Venus-Neptune! On the 4th, Pluto Stations retrograde. We briefly saw all planets moving Direct, but Pluto ends the massive forward push. This is the first full Pluto Rx in Aquarius, so it will be interesting. I prefer when Pluto is Rx. It cools the intensity! I've noticed that I'm glad to move forward with Pluto, but I'm usually tired and ready when he Stations Rx. We also enter the 2nd Quarter phase of the Moon on the 4th. On the 6th, Venus sextiles Pluto, wrapping up part of her Rx storyline, and Mercury conjuncts Chiron. This can be challenging. We are feeling raw, emotional, and sensitive. This aspect is also accident-prone, so please be careful! 

Mercury leaves Aries behind and enters Taurus on the 10th. Mercury is thinking practically and reminds us that slow and steady wins the race. 

We celebrate Mother's Day on the 11th. It's a grumpy day, honestly. Be nice to your Mom! 

We celebrate the Scorpio Full Moon on the 12th. This is an intense Full Moon. The Moon is in its sign of Fall in Scorpio, because our emotions can be obsessive and consuming. The Full Moon will oppose Uranus, so shocks, surprises, and unexpected events are more likely. On the same day, we have Mercury square Pluto. This aspect is intense on its own, so coupled with a Full Moon, it makes things spicy! Mercury and Pluto in a tense square can signify power plays, power struggles, bullying, deadly accidents, and planned attacks. Please be careful on this Full Moon. 

On the 17th, we have the Sun-Uranus conjunction! This is the FINAL Sun-Uranus conjunction in Taurus! This is an annual conjunction that we've had each year since 3/2019! Uranus is wrapping up in Taurus and enters Gemini on 7/7! When the Sun and Uranus meet, it can signify shocks, disruptions, surprises, rebellion, and unexpected events. Uranus is the Great Awakener; it wants us to be happy and needs to shake us loose in some area of life. We could have powerful leaders step down or come into power. This can be an accident-prone time, so please be careful! This energy can also signify powerful, sudden storms, earthquakes, volcanic eruptions, solar flares, and power outages! We may see that things started in 2019 and are now culminating or taking the next step. 

On the 18th, Mercury squares Mars, and having this aspect so close to the Sun-Uranus conjunction can signify accidents, arguments, and a contentious time. Please be careful and avoid taking unnecessary risks! On the same day, Jupiter sextiles Chiron. This aspect signifies helpful friends, healers, and sharing remedies! This is Jupiter's 3rd and final sextile to Chiron. 

On the 20th, we enter the 4th Quarter phase of the Moon. This is a good time to slow down, dial back, and spend more time in reflection. The Sun is preparing to leave Taurus and has one final sextile meeting with Saturn at the end of Pisces. Both planets are entering new signs shortly. This is a fertile, growth-oriented aspect. Things work out!  On the same day, the Sun enters Gemini! Happy Gemini Season! The Sun is preparing our Gemini house for Uranus's entry in July! Our Gemini house is about to be LIT! Jupiter is also wrapping up in Gemini this month, so enjoy every last bit of Jupiter in the sign of the twins! 

On the 22nd, Venus trines Mars; Venus and Mars have been working through this flowing trine energy for months. The Cosmic Lovers are flirting and indulging in their passions. The Sun in Gemini is in sextile to Neptune in Aries on the same day. This is a lot of Fire energy, fueled by the Air Sun in Gemini! Wow! It's a loving, sexy, passionate day! On the 24th, the Sun trines Pluto Rx, the Sun and Pluto are harmonizing and reviewing all we've learned this year. We are growing and transforming. On the same day, Mercury conjuncts Uranus! Urnaus is the Higher Octave of Mercury, so expect revelations, downloads, energetic upgrades, and massive amounts of information coming through! Expect shocks, surprises, and unexpected events. This energy can also be accident-prone. Please be careful!

 

The BIG news of the month is that Saturn enters Aries on the 24th! Saturn has been working through the end of the zodiac and now enters the beginning of the zodiac! The 0* Aries part of our charts has been getting heavily activated with Neptune's entry, Venus and Mercury both crossed this degree 3 times due to their retrogrades! Saturn in Aries begins a new 29.5-year cycle! This is the Spring point, the degree of the Astrological New Year, and signifies births, new beginnings, and initiations! The last time that Saturn was in Aries was from 4/96-6/98, then Saturn Retrograded back into Pisces, and re-entered Aries on 10/98-2/99! Mars rules Aries, the God of War. Aries is correlated with courage, bravery, action, energy, pure potential, drive, aggression, passion, impulsiveness, force, competitiveness, and the masculine. Saturn is the planet of limitation, restriction, boundaries, inhibition, delay, structure, caution, fear, control, ambition, responsibility, discipline, old age, and fathers. These planets don't really play well together. Saturn is considered to be in his sign of Fall in Aries. This energy can feel like running in concrete boots, or driving with the brakes on! What we need to learn now is DISCIPLINE! Especially in the arena of sports! This is an ideal time for mastery of a sport or active craft! Hard work and discipline will take us far! Neptune is also in Aries, and these planets will get extremely close this year, but won't meet exactly until 2/2026! Neptune is asking us to come up with a new vision, a new dream for our lives. Saturn is asking us to put in the work to make it a reality! What we grow now will stand the test of time! Father-son relationships will also be highlighted during this time, as Mars rules over young men and Saturn rules over fathers. This can signify power struggles and conflicts, or a time when working together and teaching/learning from each other is supported. These relationships will take work if they are to grow and thrive. Restructures and new approaches with the military are also areas to pay attention to! Hopefully, this is not due to war, but that is a signification of this energy. 

On the 25th, Mercury enters Gemini! Mercury is thrilled to be back in Gemini, its ruling sign. Mercury is strong here, feeling witty, chatty, and highly social. Mercury sextiles Saturn shortly after entering Aries, which is the first aspect of Saturn in Aries! Mercury is feeling strong and wants to have important meetings and make plans! This is a fantastic day to do so!

We celebrate Memorial Day on 5/26, which also happens to be my birthday! YAY! I'm turning 40 this year! Goodbye 30s, it's been awesome! Aging is a gift, and I'm so grateful to be here, living this incredible life! 

We also celebrate the Gemini New Moon on 5/26! Happy New Moon! This is a power-packed New Moon, the Moon is happy and making several beautiful and supportive aspects! Mercury sextiles Neptune shortly before the New Moon, adding celebratory and inspirational vibes. Look to the future! Make the most of this powerful new beginning! 

On the 30th, we have the Mercury-Sun Cazimi! We are halfway through the Mercury Direct cycle! Mercury is being purified by the Sun's rays now. The Sun is updating Mercury on future plans for Mercury to deliver to the other planets! Mercury is being purified and reborn now. On the build-up to the Cazimi, however, Mercury is being "burnt" by the rays of the Sun. Mercury is at home in Gemini, so it's still strong. When Mercury is building up to the conjunction and waning off of the conjunction, communications and technology can be challenging. Both sides think that they are correct, not being willing to hear the other person's side. Geminis are usually good about considering both sides, but they also need to speak less and listen more at times! This day is also my son's 12th birthday! Yay!

​This Weekend:

​

This weekend is HUGE, wild and crazy! 

On Saturday evening, the Sun conjuncts Uranus! This is an annual aspect, and it can signify rebellions, upheaval, shocks, surprises, disruptions, and sudden realizations and awakenings. This is a time when there could be more power outages, solar flares, storms, volcanic eruptions, or earthquakes! Please be careful, this energy can represent accidents!

Early Sunday morning, we have a Mercury-Mars square. This aspect can also signify accidents, confrontations, and disputes. Please be careful overnight on Saturday into early Sunday morning! On Sunday morning, Jupiter sextiles Chiron. This is the 3rd and final sextile between these planets. This aspect signifies connecting with healers, healing remedies, finding helpful friends, and healing information.

​

​​​​Today:​

 

​Saturday:

​

​We have the Sun-Uranus conjunction in Taurus this evening! We are feeling this energy build all day. This is the final Sun-Uranus conjunction in Taurus for the next 84 years! This is an annual conjunction that we've been working through since 3/6/19, when Uranus entered Taurus! We are closing out a cycle that started in 3/2019 in the Taurus part of our charts! Uranus enters Gemini from 7/7/25-9/7/25. Uranus re-enters Gemini in 2026! 

When the Sun and Uranus meet, it signifies radical changes, rebellion, breakthroughs, breaking free, shocks, surprises, changes, and disruptions. Expect the unexpected; change is afoot! Uranus is the Great Awakener; the Sun is a luminary, it shines light on things that we need to see! We can expect HUGE, significant news to come to light and mind-blowing revelations! Uranus can bring in disruptive energies. Trust that whatever is coming to light is for our highest good. Uranus is still conjunct with the Foxed Star Algol, so heads could roll on this conjunction! That's literally or metaphorically! Eek! Please be careful, this energy can be accident-prone! ​​​

​

Saturn is nearing the end of Pisces! Pisces is the final sign of the zodiac, and Saturn is the planet of karma. We are wrapping up a huge karmic cycle now. Saturn will enter Aries on 5/24, initiating powerful new beginnings. Saturn will retrograde back into Pisces, closing out its karmic lessons in the Fall. Saturn is now conjunct the Fixed Star Scheat! This is the Fixed Star of boating, swimming, lifeguards, Coast Guard, the Navy, drowning, floods, misfortune, suffering, love of language, erratic, grief, jealousy, isolation, foot ailments, neuroses, creates its own problems, and artistry.  Please be careful on the water over the next few weeks. 

Saturn is closing out a 29.5-year cycle that started the last time Saturn entered Aries, in 4/1996-2/1999!​

​​​​​​​

Overnight tonight, we have a Mercury-Mars square. This aspect can be energetic and fun, but it can also signify accidents, fights, and confrontations! Please be careful!

​

There are no aspects this morning. Things pick up significantly this afternoon!

​

Moon in Capricorn inconjuncts Jupiter in Gemini at 3:50 pm; we need to make some decisions. The Moon in Capricorn is focused, but Jupiter in Gemini is still considering options and is scattered. The Capricorn Moon insists that we settle down and make a choice.

​

Moon in Capricorn squares Chiron in Aries at 4:04 pm; we are feeling raw and sensitive. Our soul wound is active. Try to avoid telling yourself stories that are not necessarily true. Focus on practical solutions. All is NOT lost! Take one step at a time.

​

Sun in Taurus conjuncts Uranus in Taurus at 7:32 pm; here we go! This is the FINAL Sun-Uranus conjunction in Taurus for the next 84 years! This conjunction is at 27*17' of Taurus! Uranus and the Sun are still close to a conjunction with the Fixed Star Algol, but thankfully, it's waning off this conjunction! This conjunction signifies radical changes, rebellions, shocks, disruptions, upheavals, and sudden unexpected events. This conjunction can be accident-prone, so please be careful!

Uranus is the Great Awakener. Uranus wants us to lift the lid and live our best lives. This can feel destabilizing and disruptive if we are not on our highest path. Trust that the Universe has our best interests at heart, and anything that is falling away is for the best. This conjunction signifies the Tower card in the Tarot. This final conjunction is the final "death blow" to the Tower that we've been deconstructing and reconstructing since 3/2019! We have been working through this annual conjunction since then! 

This conjunction can feel deeply destabilizing and triggering. Anxiety can also be triggered today. Take good care of yourself and your nervous system. Be gentle with yourself. There are positive attributes to this conjunction. If we've been feeling stuck, held back, or bored, this energy is fantastic for shaking things up! Do something different, try something new! Innovative solutions, downloads, and energetic upgrades are more likely now! 

We can expect shocking news and information to come to light! This energy blows the ild off of things that have been hidden or covered up. Truths are coming to light! This conjunction can also trigger volcanic eruptions, earthquakes, sudden shocking events, rebellions, solar flares, or power outages.

Venus is the ruler of Taurus, so both planets are answering to her! Venus is finally cleared of her Rx Shadow, so this supports the productivity of this final conjunction. 

​

Moon in Capricorn trines Uranus in Taurus at 8:24 pm; the Moon joins in the Sun-Uranus conjunction energy! This is a harmonious Earth trine; the energy is flowing. Uranus is upgrading us emotionally in a way that brings some stability and insight. 

​

Moon in Capricorn trines the Sun in Taurus at 8:28 pm; the Sun continues to update and upgrade the Moon after its conjunction with Uranus. This is a Waning Earth trine. Let go of anything that no longer serves you, including limiting beliefs.

​

Sunday:

​

We are still in orb of the Sun-Uranus conjunction, so that energy is still active today. Overnight on Saturday night, we have a Mercury-Mars square! This makes for a wild and crazy night! If out partying, it can be a mixed bag! It's great for dancing and having fun with friends, or it can trigger confrontations, arguments, fights, and accidents! Please be careful tonight. The Moon wraps up in Capricorn and enters Aquarius early this morning. Mid-morning, Jupiter sextiles Chiron! This is the 3rd and final sextile between these planets that we've been working through! This aspect brings healing and restoration to our minds and bodies. Focus on healing physically, mentally, and emotionally. Sunday is a self-care day. 

​

We are nearing the end of Taurus Season! Gemini Season begins next week, on Tuesday! The end of all signs is the most intense expression of the sign, so we could feel under pressure over the next few days. Remember, Venus rules Taurus, so indulge in good food and drinks, do what makes you feel good, and avoid excess. However, sometimes we need to remember that life can feel good and peaceful. Our nervous systems have been on overdrive. 

​

Moon in Capricorn sextiles Saturn in Pisces at 12:27 am; this is a beautiful, friendly energy. We heal while we sleep. If out with friends, enjoy good times! 

The Moon goes void with this aspect; call it a night.

​

Mercury in Taurus squares Mars in Leo at 12:36 am; this aspect can be challenging. It's a Fixed square, so both sides of this confrontation are stubborn and digging in. This aspect can signify nightmares, headaches, or accidents. Please be careful tonight, even if just sleepily walking to the bathroom! We are feeling this aspect all weekend, so arguments, fights, frustrations, and confrontations are more likely! Pick your battles! Focus on protection work, psychic attacks are rampant now. Especially protect your sexual energy! Remember, your body is a temple; honor it in all ways! What matters most is how WE honor our temples. We can't always expect others to be respectful. 

This energy also signifies powerful meetings and agreements. In a good negotiation, both sides are a bit unhappy with the deal, but they find common ground. 

​

The Moon enters Aquarius at 1:29 am; the Moon in Aquarius is detached, humanitarian, individualistic, non-conforming, independent, aloof, and impersonal. 

​

Moon in Aquarius sextiles Neptune in Aries at 4:27 am; this is a beautiful, restorative, psychic energy. Listen to your dreams. 

​

Moon in Aquarius conjuncts Pluto in Aquarius at 8:34 am; spend some quiet time in meditation and reflection. Get a bird's eye view over your life and situations that we've been working through. Reclaim the calm center that is always within us. 

​

Jupiter in Gemini sextiles Chiron in Aries at 9:44 am; this is the 3rd and final sextile between these planets. Jupiter and Chiron have been on a healing journey during Jupiter's Rx. We have been seeking information and inspiration. It's time to take what we've learned and use it! This aspect is powerfully healing!

​

Moon in Aquarius sextiles Venus in Aries at 2:18 am 5/19; another beautiful aspect while we sleep. Our dreams are alive and calling to us!

​

Moon in Aquarius opposes Mars in Leo at 4:23 am 5/19; this is a nightmare aspect. Psychic attacks are more common now. Protect your sleep space before going to bed every night!
