MAY'S HOROSCOPE

This is kinada a long entry it's just an interpretation of the horoscope for this month. It's kinda long and mostly just for me to have handy and read but feel free to check it too!

THE QUALITY OF THE CURRENT WEATHER

The quality of the weather in May is somewhat more relaxed than in the previous month when all signs were going through difficulties and changes. However, sometimes what erupted a few weeks ago must be consolidated and integrated. That can again be challenging, especially towards the middle of the month. But this May is also about love and sensuality. The last third of the month will bring an unusual lightness.

On the 1st of the month, sensual Venus in Taurus forms a square to inflexible Pluto in Aquarius. Some people will now take great pleasure in life, while others will enjoy a passionate adventure. However, it is important to keep a cool head and take care of finances because on May 2, Pluto turns retrograde until October 12. During this time, when it returns to Capricorn for the last time (September 2 to November 20), many things will need to be reviewed to confirm that they are the right things. Any projects that lack substance may now come under considerable pressure.

The New Moon in Taurus on May 8 is close to Uranus, precisely between Venus and Jupiter in Taurus, which puts the focus on material needs. However, it is also a highly sensual and fertile quality that can tempt us to be indulgent.

On this day give yourself a treat that makes you feel good. It is also a brilliant time to give thanks in some way for the miracle of life, either through a ritual or a small celebration among friends. This is an excellent day to sow the seeds of a new project; it will bring you abundant fruit.

On May 13, the Sun forms a conjunction with Uranus, and the Moon in Leo forms an opposition to Pluto. The pressure for change is now very strong. Unexpected events can bring uncertainty that some will take advantage of here and there. However, you can accomplish much during this time, as long as you allow yourself a minimum of creative chaos and are encouraged to try new approaches.

When Mercury also enters Taurus on May 15, there will be five planets in this pragmatic and sensual earth sign, associated with money and possessions and well known for its need for material security. Corrections that may be necessary in these areas will not be totally unexpected but may nonetheless trigger resistance and resentment.

On May 18, the Sun is conjunct Jupiter and Venus conjunct Uranus. It's a time of favorable opportunities - fortune favors the brave! Lovers now receive welcome encouragement that promotes encounters. However, beware of exaggerations and respect for one's limits.

The last third of the month presents a noticeable change in the quality of the weather. The Sun enters Gemini on May 20 and forms an exact trine to Pluto two days later.

The Full Moon in Sagittarius forms on May 23. Simultaneously, Venus forms a conjunction with Jupiter in the last degree of Taurus. Just hours later, she also enters Gemini. Now we may feel something akin to optimism and an unusual lightness reminds us that we can also communicate to solve problems. When Jupiter enters Gemini on May 26, it will be hard not to notice that a new phase is beginning.

On May 29, Mars is conjunct Chiron. Unbridled power and unconscious aggression can be self-destructive. It will be advisable to lay down your weapons and consider whether the fight is worth it. When Mercury forms a conjunction with Uranus on May 31, some nervousness will be noted. Negotiations and communication will now be possible and perhaps solutions will be found to conflicts that previously seemed insoluble.

THE QUALITY OF PERSONAL TIME

Because of the strong emphasis on the sign of Taurus, it is reasonable to assume that the focus is mostly on material issues. However, Taurus is not isolated in the zodiac but is in constant contact with all the other signs. A key to further understanding a zodiac sign is in its opposite sign. Taurus is related to the formation of substance and the physical and its opposite sign, Scorpio desires to release the bond with the material to make possible the opening to a spiritual process. The polarity of uniting and releasing is part of every individual, in a unique way.
