The month begins with a Full Moon and ends with another. This phenomenon, the repetition of two Full Moons in the same month, is known as a Blue Moon. Astronomically it has no special meaning, although symbolically it represents fullness and manifestation.
The first full moon occurs in the sign of Scorpio, bringing to light manipulations or power games. The Blue Moon on the 31st will highlight conflicts purely ideological or of a religious nature. It forms a conjunction with the powerful star Antares, which can cause fanaticism and the urgent need to be right to cloud objectivity. In the middle of the month the New Moon forms in Taurus, meaning beginnings and novelties in economic matters or in terms of natural and energetic resources. It makes a conjunction with the potent star Algol, which marks cuts or ruptures you seek.
All personal planets change signs, Mercury arrives in Taurus, in the early days of the month, where it will move swiftly until the 17th when it enters its domicile in Gemini. It will be easier to streamline processes related to communication and transportation and connect ideas with words in an appropriate and rapid way. These meanings will be reinforced by the Sun entering Gemini on the 21st.
Next Mars will enter Taurus, where it has its fall, forming a square with Pluto, which can give rise to strong economic struggles and impulsive and excessive spending. The entry of Venus into Cancer, on the 19th, will add a touch of tenderness and sensitivity, seeking to feel protected and in close contact with our loved ones.
On the 25th, the Sun square to the nodes marks a point of maximum crisis and upheaval. This extreme tension triggers frustration, provoking brusque reactions and impulsive decisions. It is a cut-off moment where accumulated aggression can erupt, forcing a turn in the course of events.
This month invites you to focus on managing your finances and stability. The Sun’s square to the nodes marks an important crossroads where your beliefs could test your personal values, forcing you to make decisions. It is a moment to act with prudence and avoid impulsive spending or power struggles over material matters that would only generate frustration.
Fortunately, you will notice that your mind becomes sharper and intellectual work will be much easier. The Blue Moon grants you a broader vision, helping you find a deeper meaning to life, being able to understand how the pieces fit together. Keep calm in the face of unforeseen events!
The month of May pushes you to leave your comfort zone to prevent your personal shine from fading. The Sun’s square to the nodes acts as a warning for you to get moving; it is the moment to decide whether you keep repeating the same schemes, clinging to the old ways, or if you dare to take the leap that your current situation demands.
Mars in your sign (solar or rising) can lead you to a lot of internal tension that you will need to temper to avoid reactions too abrupt and frontal clashes with those you meet along the way. On the other hand, it is an excellent energy to act with determination and break down obstacles. The Blue Moon illuminates your shadows so you can dispel fears. It is time to let go of the past!
The New Moon of this month opens a period of deep introspection that requires you to move from words to deeds. It is the moment to apply practical changes in your rest and health routines to protect your energy and your privacy. It is about stopping giving explanations to everyone or not answering the phone when you need to rest.
The entry of the Sun and Mercury into your sign (solar or ascending) will recharge you with energy, enthusiasm and mental clarity, and will help you resume contacts that matter to you, but be careful not to exhaust yourself in the struggle to always be right. The Blue Moon invites you to a romantic evening as a couple!
This month projects with friends or groups will be very important and it will be the moment to put into practice the ideas you have been talking and debating for so long, although the sky advises you to be wary of the ‘smart alecks’ who seek to take advantage of the work of others or the benefits gained through long effort. It benefits you to protect your time and energy, avoiding filling your schedule with meetings or unnecessary appointments.
Now it is a priority to stay calm, in silence and focused on your affairs to recover the mental clarity that will allow you to organize yourself better, have more energy and improve vitality and health. The Blue Moon is the perfect excuse for a wellness treatment or a good massage!
The May moons encourage you to tread firmly in your career, to stop planning and start executing. It is the moment to solidify that position or work project and to seek concrete and measurable results, but it would not be unusual for rivalries with colleagues or with partners to arise, probably due to a lack of tact and diplomacy.
Trying to win that battle purely for pride can leave you exhausted. Fortunately, you can surround yourself with new people and chat with your friends, which will help you air out your mind and find solutions where you previously only saw blocks. Mandatory: go out to have a good time to recharge your batteries!
Having your details, schedules and activities under control in a strict, rigid way can be extremely tiring and stressful this month. Wanting material reality to fit your ideal could generate frustration and discouragement. Your plans to travel or broaden personal horizons, however, can bear good fruit if you persevere with it with tenacity and determination.
The entry of Mercury, your ruling planet, into Gemini will be of great help and encouragement to push forward your objectives at work and to generate a fruitful network of contacts. The Blue Moon at the end of the month favors enthusiasm and suggests spending time with family to find motivation and connect with the joy of living. To shine externally you will need to nourish the internal!
