Astrology highlights for the week of May 15th:
00:47 – The theme of this week is, “Finding shelter through the storm.” It’s an intense week! How can you stay grounded rather than going to extremes? Note that it’s a great time for detoxification and cleansing!
01:32 – There are three big things happening this week: First, the emotional Lunar Eclipse at 25 degrees Scorpio (May 15 at 9:13pm PT) calls us to shed light on darkness and burn off what has been outgrown. The Sun is highlighting fixed star Algol, and Celeste breaks down some of the recent news that may relate to this aspect.
08:50 – The second aspect related this eclipse is that Saturn (structures, limits, hardship, toil, consequences, authority, rewards for hard work) is squaring the Sun and Moon, forming a T-square. We’ve been at this crossroads for some weeks now.
10:33 – Thirdly, the Sun is parallel the fixed star Arcturus. How can you pivot rather than break down? Also, Mars conjuncts Neptune: Check on people who are struggling during this time. And consider: How can you be the observer of your emotions?
12:03 – Celeste offers an overview of the lunar gestation cycle. Fascinating! Each lunation is connected – every nine months – to one of these cycles. This eclipse/Full Moon brings us back to November 2020.
14:01 – On Sunday, the word of the day is “reflection.” Today is the eclipse, and the week starts with the Moon in Scorpio. Ceres (asteroid/dwarf planet that rules nurturing, nourishment and parenting) moves into the sign of Cancer until July 23. What are you growing? Ceres is semisquare Uranus, so you may feel inspired. Also, Venus joins Chiron in Aries. How can you heal old wounds? Also, the Sun squares Saturn, possibly bringing conflict with authority and feelings of restriction. Finally, the Sun sextiles Neptune: An opportunity for compassion, faith, and trust.
17:24 – On Monday, the theme is “recover.” The Moon enters Sag at 4:50am PT, a fire sign, bringing optimism. Takes things slow, as the eclipse just happened yesterday. Take things slow, move your body as you are able, walk in nature, and watch your words.
18:20 – On Tuesday, the word is “dance!” Allow your feelings to come through your body. Two transits: Mercury retrograde (Rx) in Gemini is semisquare Venus in Aries, bringing stress, so watch how you speak to those you love, and avoid bringing up old hurts unless you plan on healing them; and Mars joins Neptune, so act with intention and be compassionate.
19:34 – On Wednesday, the focus is “refine.” The Moon moves into Cap at 5:01am PT. Focus on work and growth; Capricorn says, “Pursue excellence!” Jupiter in Aries squares Ceres in Cancer and makes everything bigger: Be optimistic about what you are growing in your life.
20:24 – Thursday’s word is “primal.” The Sun trines Pluto, perhaps bringing feelings of empowerment. Mercury Rx in Gemini sextiles Jupiter in Aries: Inspiration may come from the past. The Sun is parallel Phaeton, and Celeste shares the story of Phaeton. (The story is a warning about how overconfidence can lead to missteps!)
22:26 – On Friday, the word of the day is “levity.” The Moon enters Aquarius at 5:52am PT. The Sun enters Gemini today, and see if you notice a shift. Gemini may bring a desire to communicate and connect in a light-hearted fashion.
23:17 – On Saturday, the theme is “serendipity.” The Sun is conjunct Mercury Rx, also called “Cazimi.” Stay present for unique insights: The way forward may come through the past. Be thoughtful not thoughtless!
