Notable Aspects
May 23: Sun sextile Jupiter • Mercury Rx sextile Mars
You may feel that luck is on your side, and that could in fact be true because today's energy suggests that an opportunity is likely to come your way. It also suggests that it could come quickly, or alternatively, it may require a quick decision on your part. That being said, Mercury is currently retrograde, which means it's possible that you may not have all the details, so be certain to do your due diligence regarding any offers or opportunities
May 24: Venus sextile Saturn
Provided you're mindful of Mercury retrograde and the need for clear communications, today's influence is a fortunate one for discussions concerning romantic and/or financial expectations. The ease energy of this aspect suggests that both parties will be open to making compromises because they want to please each other. If a new relationship begins under this transit, it's possible that one partner will be decidedly older, mature or more established than the other. On a different note, this influence also favors business relationships and can inspire sound financial judgment.
May 25: Mercury Rx trine Pluto
Today's influence is usually very helpful if you need to learn something quickly, think on your feet or perform work that requires focus and attention to detail. Since Mercury is retrograde, an excellent use of this influence would be to review or revise a current projects or perhaps revive a former one.
May 27: Venus square Pluto
Personal relationships are likely to feel intense today. If there are any unresolved issues, especially connected to jealousy or finances, they're likely to rear their head today. If both parties are honest and don't resort to guilt or manipulation (and are mindful of the need for clear communications with Mercury Rx), this influence offers an opportunity to clear the air and transform the relationship into a much healthier and happier one.
May 29: Mars conjunct Jupiter
This high-energy influence can be very favorable for taking bold steps and/or launching new endeavors. However, if you pull the trigger too soon, a premature debut could just as easily bring a big flop. Since Mercury is retrograde, it might be wiser to do a "soft launch" so you can see how it goes and make any necessary revisions before you open the doors to everyone.
