May Moonwise Musings
Life is about cycles. I use the astrological cycles to have
better timing in my life.
I am fascinated with the Moon,
her cycles and mythology. I have written many poems that have symbolism.
Check
out my poetry page on my website.
May will be a powerful month astrologically especially
between May 1 and May 8th. This will be the best time to start new projects. This
weekend, there will be a FULL MOON, starting on Friday, the 4th until Saturday,
the 5th at 8:35 pm Pacific Time and 11:35 pm Eastern time. It will be a powerful time to do full moon
rituals, meditate, or be involved creatively. On Sunday, the 6th, during
the day, it would be best to take it
easy during the day because the Moon will be void of course. (The Moon will not
be making any major aspects to the planets that day) At 6:36 pm the Moon will
go into Sagittarius. Then it will be the best time to go out for dinner,
socializing and having philosophical conversations.
May will be a romantically active month with Venus entering
Gemini on April 3rd, and remains in this social sign until early August 2012. It
is important to know that Venus will go retrograde beginning on May 15th, 24 degrees
of Gemini. And Venus turns Direct at
7 degrees Gemini on June 27th. These degrees, give or take 3 degrees,
are significant. If you have any planets in your Natal Chart at those degrees (especially
Gemini, Virgo, Sagittarius and Pisces) –
the Venus Retrograde cycle will be
highly active for you. During a retrograde phase, we journey inwards to
reflect, revise and review. With Venus retrograde we will be reflecting on our
current and possibly past relationships. With Venus in Gemini, we may want to
talk and work out any of the difficulties we have been having in our
relationships. This will help us to keep an objective point of view and learn
to see others’ points of view. Perhaps under the Venus retrograde we can enjoy Gemini’s
tone which is airy, light and curious to relationship possibilities. Venus in
Gemini, with the symbolism of the twins, there is a search for the significant
“Other” half that is a loving and empowering partner in our personal or
business life. It is also important to take a look at our financial matters as
well as our ability to draw in opportunities to increase our prosperity consciousness
It is
important to be aware that until mid-May, Mars continues to be in opposition to
Neptune. We may still be experiencing confusion about what to do next. We may
even be deceiving ourselves about something very important, or someone else may
be deceiving us. Mars opposite Neptune is also
associated with taking deceptive actions. So take care of yourself, get enough
rest and relaxation, eat healthy foods and exercise to stay grounded and
centered. Keep in mind that the most ideal expression of this cycle is taking
spiritually-motivated or inspired actions.
