Monday, May 2nd:
Monday, the Moon remains in steady, peaceful Taurus until 6:47am EDT. We love all physical comforts, prefer consistency, and would rather stick with what we know works well. In other words: change is not our favorite thing and "rushing things" goes against our grain.
Monday early morning, at 6:13am EDT, we enter a brief Moon VoC, that will last only 34 minutes until 6:47am EDT. Use this short intuitive time as an opportunity to connect with others in a gentle, compassionate way, and enjoy a good meal, a glass of wine, a massage... think "physical pleasures".
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 early morning ahead of time.
Monday at 6:47am EDT, the Moon moves into chatty, versatile Gemini, where it will journey until Wednesday evening. For the next two days, we like to learn, connect and interact as much as possible. "Busy" feels good: connecting online, on the phone, or sharing face-to-face, preferably multi-tasking all the way...
The one thing we can do without is boredom: If our mind is not engaged in some way, we might as well curl up and play dead :-)
Monday at 12:10pm EDT, Venus changes signs from intuitive, creative, dreamy Pisces to fast-paced, enthusiastic, active Aries, where it will journey until May 28th.
Until May 28th, we are going to feel passionate about connecting to others. We are ready to make a new start: if you are single, this could be a great chance to start something new (all things being equal). With Venus in Aries, spontaneity and independence are important to us. You’re not the only one who likes a challenge, so don't make it too easy for others to win you over.
If you are already in a committed relationship, you get a wonderful chance to bring freshness and excitement to your bedroom and "other parts of the house" ;-) We also have more energy than usual; we are more likely to want to get out of the house and be active with others.
All this is especially true if you are a Taurus, Libra, or Aries Sun-sign or Rising-sign. As an Aries, beauty and love will enter your life during this time, you will feel more attractive and you will attract things to you. As a Taurus or Libra, you will feel more energized, passionate, and more than usually direct.
Monday from 4:28pm EDT on, it's finally time to set our Solar Eclipse Intentions.... since we just had an Eclipse, we get to set some powerful intentions for the entire length of an Eclipse cycle -- in other words, for the next 6 months!
Until 4:28pm EDT on Wednesday (May 4th) is the best and most potent time to do so!
Make them powerful: They cover the next six months. If possible, align them with the Taurus energy that I spoke about in my Solar Eclipse video — feel free to watch it again if you are not sure anymore — click here to watch my video.
While writing your intentions, ask yourself: What would I need to add or subtract from my life to better experience it as peace, abundance, and radiant love? Might adding a daily dash of love, grace, and gratitude add to my joy on this physical journey?
How might meditation or mindfulness -- simply being present in the now-moment to all the energies inside and around me -- support my enjoyment of life?
