May 2026 opens with the powerful auspicious energy of Beltane’s May Day festivals, the first of two full moons for the month, and the arrival of the cosmic equinox on May 2, 2026. This triune of life-affirming energies boasts the Sun in Taurus, which is the only major anchoring energy in an earth sign for most of May. This changes mid-month at the new moon, as the Moon and Mercury join with the protective Solar Father energies of the Divine Masculine of light, life, and love. This is an intense time when the light of truth (cosmic truth) shines onto the planet and into the world, expanding the hearts of all human beings to recognize the interconnectedness of all and to envision and express the cosmic plan fully in positive, generous ways.
