Predictions

Mother Earth outdoes herself during the month of May. When the Sun passes through Taurus, her energy infuses this month with a beauty that lights up the world. If being overcivilized has inured us to the effects of May, the ancients and esotericists revered it.

April 30–May 6: You are likely to feel restless and impatient with a Mars-Uranus interaction. Then there is Beltane (May Day), a full moon in Scorpio, and the penumbral lunar eclipse. With the balefire burning, you should find it easy to expend this energy.

The energies for May 2023 focus on discovering harmony within and without as all members of the human kingdom face the truths of reality and life. Many people exist in self-created fantasy worlds.

Mercury is retrograde until May 17 when it turns direct at 8:17pm (5°51’ Taurus).

If you are in a 1 personal year, May is a 6 month. This is your time for home and family. Improve your humble abode by redecorating with a new coat of paint, landscaping the yard, or planting spring flowers. At the very least, bring home some fresh bouquets.

The first of three spirals containing the open-eye energy of the storm has completed, and the next is opening in this very moment.

The Sun crossed the Aries point recently, otherwise known as the alpha-omega point of the zodiac. We also refer to it as the first day of spring, when life kicks off a new round of growth and discovery.

Pluto entered the air sign of Aquarius on March 31, 2023, bringing balanced-reciprocity energies throughout the cosmos. This energy continues all during April with powerful spiritual influences over ideas, ideals, and beliefs and their ability to harmonize and flow with nature and all life.

A solar eclipse occurs on Wednesday, April 19 at 9:13pm (29°50' Aries). This degree is represented in the Sabian symbols by “a duck pond and its brood.” Eclipses are always turning points.

April 2–8: The Moon is asking for balance this week when she shines full on Wednesday. Your competitive sun-fire energy can make this a bit difficult for you.
