 May 2018The first day of May marks the halfway point from the Spring Equinox to the Summer Solstice, also known as Beltane, or the Celtic Fertility Festival. Not only did our ancients celebrate the Earth’s fertility and innocence of new growth, but they also praised and paid tribute to their Fire or Sun Gods. This is the ideal time of the year to plant and start a garden as the ground is ready to nourish new seeds. Mother’s Day falls on May 13th, and that say day Mercury moves into Taurus which may cause a bit of a slow down on communication, but for the next two and a half weeks, it ensures an effective and direct influence which makes communication all the better, that is, if you have the patience. So, if you plan on spending the day with Mom, you can count on the time spent to be of true value as this Earthy energy focuses on nourishing support systems and family traditions. On May 15th we get another planet transitioning into Taurus, where it hasn’t been since 1935-1942, which marks an extreme shift in humanity and the financial system. Uranus is very strong in Taurus as it promotes a need to build, to be constructive, and to achieve through determined efforts and of course, patience and persistence. However, when you think of the last time Uranus was in Taurus, you might perceive this time as something to fear because 1935 was the year of the Great Depression and 1942 was the start of World War II. We can only hope that as a more evolved and self-aware society, that we can transmute this planetary aspect to working for us in terms of allowing financial luck and more structured relationship with others. Uranus will be in Taurus until the year 2026. On that same day, we have a Taurus New Moon which is going to usher in Uranus’s shift into Taurus. For those who are wanting to bring about a prosperous next 7 years to their relationships or financial situation, then this would be the prime time to set intentions so to attract what you desire. The Moon does well in Taurus and received the grounding but also visionary ideas to create beauty with everything it touches. This Venus ruled moon is here to empower artists to finally channel out their masterpiece and for lovers to take that next step with the one they cherish the most. Mars moves into Aquarius on May 16th and goes Retrograde, which means it will spend the next 6 months within Aquarius, and it will also square Uranus 3 times, rather than just once, invoking a massive change each time. Mars in Aquarius a very people-oriented position and so these shifts brought on by the square with Uranus may reach out to society in a massive scale. This may also affect commitments as a sudden need for freedom and working on different activities will arise. While Mother’s Day had already passed, on May 19th Venus enters Cancer which puts a major emphasis on needing Mom and nurturing others. Being loved becomes important, almost above anything else. This planetary position pushes an influence on being more emotionally available, romantic and demonstrative with our affections, as well as making a huge fuss over celebrating others for the smallest of reasons. On May 20th, the Sun enters Gemini, the sign of communication. This Airy sign is all about fun and seeing, or rather understanding, the lighter side of life. To use this next month’s energy to your advantage, it would be a valuable time to meditate, start a creative project that involves vocal or written expression, or traveling and taking on an adventure. Memorial Day falls on May 28th, which is typically the time of year when most plan their big camping trips which would be prime for planning that adventure! May ends on a very high note with a Full Moon in Sagittarius on May 29th. This is an extremely lucky moon which illuminates our optimism and fuels our inner-adventurer. On that same day Mercury moves into Gemini which only adds extra sprinkles to that good luck making this day prime to finish old projects so to make room for other things. Communication flows and relationship flourish under this energy, making it easy to befriend just about anyone. WHAT DOES May HAVE IN STORE FOR YOUR ZODIAC SUN SIGN?Scroll down to find out!  AriesGENERAL / SELF 7 of Wands May is going to be quite the action-packed month for you, Aries. You might feel as if you’re putting in more work or effort than you’re getting back in return, which will feel a bit discouraging since you are all about quick results. You need to be patient, Aries, and persistent. Nothing worth having comes easy and the right determined attitude can yield the results you truly desire, no matter how long it takes. May is going to be full of Taurus energy, and hopefully you’ve got some of that earthly sign in your chart to compliment you, as it is going to be a great month of working for long ranged goals and bringing about long-term results. There will be some challenges this month, as the other cards point out, and while you don’t have an easy path to follow, it is certainly one worth traveling down. Don’t lose focus to the bigger picture and keep believing in the success you feel is certain to come. Aries, you are a sign who gets what they want, so do not lose your patience or quit before the finish line – because it would be worse to know you were almost there and miss out on this opportunity.  TaurusGENERAL / SELF XI Strength Happy Birthday Taurus! May is going to be kind to you, and you certainly do deserve every ounce of it! These past few months have been rather tough for you, but just as the strong and determined sign that you are, you endured through it and are now going to reap the benefits of all your hard labor. While there is a lot of planetary action within your sign this month, you will have to connect your practical mind with your generous and selflessly loving heart. You may have to deal with some negativity from others this month, but if you channel from your soul, instead of the ego, then you will come out on top. Nothing is too hard to accomplish, as long as you are persistent, patient and stand your ground. Keep your head up this month, Taurus, because an optimistic mind and open-heart are the perfect combination to tackle any issue down, no matter the size. May is going to be very kind to you, but you will still need to put in the required efforts to yield the success you desire – nothing comes to those who don’t do the work, and you know that, Taurus!  GeminiGENERAL / SELF 6 of Wands Kind of like last month, Gemini, just as things feel they are shifting for the better, you still have some opposition to get through, and just like the previous months, it all stems from within. What makes May so different, though, is that there is an award awaiting you for all the effort you’ve been putting into your self-mastery. The resolutions you’ve been needing, are coming, and the wait time is over. As the other cards will show, you seem to have some mixed feelings about these, because while things are finally moving, you fear the direction they are going. Success is to be had, and with knowing that whatever the result you are given, it will surely be in your favor, or for your best benefit. This is a great month for signing documents, making commitments, and for resolving any legal matters.  CancerGENERAL / SELF 3 of Wands Happy Shifting, Cancer! Your World is changing this month and while these are amazing changes, they startle you a bit because you feel pushed outside of your comfort zone. You have the support you need and all the resources readily available at your disposal, so you need to combat that fear with the belief that you can truly do anything you put your mind to. May pushes you to speak from the heart and to express yourself from the soul. Nothing else will do, and in order to shift things to your benefit, you need to express nothing but your Truth. You might fear you will be rejected for it, but that is self-perceived and the only thing blocking you from moving forward. Once you do, you will be amazed at how quickly everything speeds up for you and the rewards that come with it. This is your month for breaking past borders to get what you want. You are great at whatever you put your mind to.  LeoGENERAL / SELF 2 of Disks Your key message for this month is: Balance. There is some shifting to do in many aspects of your life for the month of May, Leo, and a lot of it revolves around what you give and take, and the efforts you put in compared to the rewards received for your work. May also pushes a lot onto your shoulders, but, you don’t have to take it all on by yourself. You have support all around you, and while you might feel that if you want something done right, you must do it yourself, you would save yourself a lot of stress and free up space for what you need by delegating tasks to others. There may be certain things going on that you worry about, wondering if you will have all that it takes to see it through, and you can, as long as you save up the energy and necessary resources. Don’t extend yourself too much this month, Leo, you will need to save what you can for anything unexpected, or long awaited for.  VirgoGENERAL / SELF 2 of Cups Although you are feeling great this month, Virgo, you are going to have quite a bit going on! However, it is all based from perspective, and as long as you shift this good mood feeling into what you do, and what you say, then you should be able to shift through quite easily. Basically, if you’re going to do anything this month, do it with love. Virgo, you are a practical sign who always puts forth the right effort and action that is always well thought-out and planned meticulously. When you add love into that mix and make all of intention behind the action and words you speak come from the heart, then you promote more chances at being successful. You might be dealing with a project or person this month that gets under your skin and no matter what you do, things just won’t budge into getting any better. This is where that place of love calls in – switch your perspective around – change the way you see things, and the things you look at will begin to change. Peace is in the cards for this month, so you will be reconciling with others and healing rifts.  LibraGENERAL / SELF 7 of Cups Get out of the clouds, Libra. You don’t want to miss all of the amazing opportunities coming your way this month, as Venus, your ruling planet, takes center stage within the cosmos within Taurus. This month calls for you to bring what you think and feel out into what you speak and do. All actions need to come from the heart, but, only when you are also clear-minded. You might tend to see things as much better than they are, which will prove to set you back in the long-run if you don’t read over the fine print before you jump in. You may also have a lot of different opinions about a decision you are wanting to make this month, which only confuses you even more. You can see both sides of a scenario quite easily, but when you ask for advice and are given even more sides to the story, then it becomes more difficult. What may help you most this month is not to rush into anything until you have a good feeling about it.  ScorpioGENERAL / SELF V the Hierophant Scorpio, you are on an entirely different level this month as a lot is shifting in your World, in very good yet spiritually intense ways. You feel connected to the Higher Power that we call the Universe, or Goddess (…or God!), and also your Higher Self, so much so that you may even feel your Crown Chakra tingle more than once! This, of course, is all fueled by the power of Love, and as we read into the remaining cards we elaborate in which areas this stems from. You feel connected to your Higher Purpose or Soul Mission, you may even see synchronistic signs or stumble across some proof from beyond that this is true. With each step you take, you feel it is the right one. I also feel that having the Hierophant twice in this monthly reading has a lot to say about Uranus transitioning into Taurus and the Taurus New Moon – both your love life and relationships with others as well as your finances are going to be heavily affected.  SagittariusGENERAL / SELF Ace of Disks Sagittarius, you are one lucky sign, and as we approach the Full Moon near the end of the May, you will surely feel blessed. You are looking for reassurance as a new project or relationship begins to lift off, and this is something you are willing to commit to, so rest assured as you receive the signs guaranteeing success. You may receive something unexpected this month that will prove to be of great benefit to you, and this is a gift which is given to you freely as no cost on your part, other than some continued effort and investment of your time. May is a month of feeling secure while you create the foundation for something to prosper into much more than you have dreamed.  CapricornGENERAL / SELF 9 of Disks May is a month of solution and completion for you, Capricorn, and that’s just perfect because you’re all about solving problems and raking in results. In April you had encountered some bumps in the road that had caused some concern in certain areas in your life, but you were quick to fix whatever seemed broken and turned things around for the better. A lot depends on you, and you take that responsibility to heart and do the best you can to create order out of chaos. Disputes or conflicts have been mended, and so May offers you a well-deserved break in enjoying some peace and harmony. This is also a month of appreciation for what you have. Capricorn really isn’t a sign that extends their affections, but when you do, it surely does count and leaves a lasting affect to those on the receiving end. This isn’t just about your relationships though, as there is much to be thankful for, and as you will learn this month, a state of gratitude opens the doors to more abundance.  AquariusGENERAL / SELF IX the Hermit Who’s ready for a Mars Retrograde in Aquarius for the next 6 months? I can tell my fellow Aquarius probably aren’t, but, of course they understand it’s something needed as the prior year has been rather harsh in having to let something go in order to evolve into something more. I feel May is going to be much like a cocoon stage for you, Aquarius, where you are spending most of your time in thinking rather than doing and planning long and hard about your next steps. There is a major potential for healing old wounds as well, as you sit back to ponder the trials you’ve endured this prior year, you may gather certain insights which bring closure and that can help switch your perspective around which opens more doors for you. There is also a need to limit your social interaction during your times of reflection and meditation because you a clear headed is required during certain situations this month. There may even be instances where you feel intentionally left out, but rather than making waves about it, you need to use that time for yourself so to consider other aspects in your life that need your attention.  PiscesGENERAL / SELF
7 of Cups You are romanticizing something this month, Pisces, and it so like you to see things from a perspective of potential. However, you might be giving fantasy more merit than reality, which can work against you if you’re not careful. Practicality is not your strong suit, but its what will serve you more than simply following your heart as you typically do. There is nothing wrong with being led by soul and spirit, but, this month the ego is on your side. May holds a lot of wonderful things in store for you, in many aspects of your life, but some offerings are not as promising as others can be, so take your time in deciding on anything that comes your way. While you do have a lot of support working by your side, there are certain energies which may be misleading. Don’t depend on others too much for answers and try to do what you can on your own and within your individual design. |
