Monday, the Moon remains in ambitious, pragmatic, status-oriented Capricorn until 4:45pm EDT. We tend to be more realistic, serious, and cautious; this can support practical endeavors and financial matters.
As best as you can, avoid “should-ing” on yourself. Take the pressure off, perhaps by saying “I am doing the best I can and that’s all I can ever do”
Monday at 4:02pm EDT, we enter a brief Moon VoC that will last for only 43 minutes, until 4:45pm EDT. Use this intuitive time as an opportunity to soften your need for accomplishment with a gentler, more intuitive approach.
As always with a Moon VoC, as best as you can, don’t start anything brand-new, stick to routine things, or simply go with the flow. You may also want to plan Monday late afternoon ahead of time.
Monday at 4:45pm EDT, the Moon moves in freedom-loving, forward-thinking Aquarius, where it will journey until Wednesday evening (May 29th). The energy of the Aquarian Moon relates to our instinct for improvement.
Reactions are more intellectual than emotional, and interactions are more impersonal than personal. We are likely to have an increased fascination with the new and unusual.
Social gatherings, anything connected with group ideals and goals for the future, brainstorming, new ideas and methods, and progress are promoted while the Moon moves through Aquarius.
Again, we have our eyes on the future — or outer space… Personal freedom becomes paramount.
Uranus is the ruler of Aquarius — and this planet is currently moving through Taurus, making these next two days a great time to look at our physical connection to our own body, finances, and whatever is most important to us on this planet.
It’s also a great time to innovate and make changes in our lives around any physical matters that no longer serve us or keep us stuck in the past; we need to elevate our thinking if we want our bodies and the planet to vibrate at a higher frequency.
Ask yourself: Do I need to give my body something different to raise it to a higher vibration? When I tune in to myself, what insights does my body provide?
Where have I become too rigid in connection with my body, my physical resources, or my talents? Where have I become too comfortable with those things? What is my connection to the Earth? To Nature? Do I need more physical space? More physical movement?
Monday late evening, an opportune Mercury/Saturn aspect becomes exact at 11:22pm EDT. We started to feel this aspect build from Sunday early morning (May 26th) on; it will remain strong until Wednesday early morning (May 29th). This could be another opportunity to take responsibility for our thinking structures and be honest with ourselves.
How can we get the most from this opportunity? Through honest communication, we have a chance to clear up any misunderstandings.
As best as you can, allow yourself to tune in and transcend your conditioned, automatic responses. A good place to start is with a commitment to better understand your conditioning and thought processes.
If we take this chance to see things more clearly and connect to ourselves more lovingly, we could get a good dose of reality and an ability to focus on long-term issues.
Remember: opportunities are openings; they aren’t necessarily handed to us — we have to “take” them and make something of them.
Do you have your Ascendant, Career Point (or any personal planets) in 16-21 degrees of Taurus, Pisces, Capricorn, or Cancer? If so, you may be more aware of this opportunity. This is also true for those of us who have our Ascendant or Sun-sign in Gemini, Virgo, or Capricorn (Mercury is the ruler of Gemini, and Virgo, and Saturn rules Capricorn).
