May 2021 is a month of mixed energies and great potential for change and progress. It’s a funny mix.. earth and air. We will have a solid footing for at least the first half of the month but things could get wild and funky in the second half. My advice is to lay the groundwork early in the month and chillax and let things flow in the last half. May 2021 wants to remind you that if you have been in rut or just feeling the blahs of life, change and transformation are always around the corner. Nothing lasts the same and that is the beauty and magic of this human existence. Over this next eclipse cycle, you will learn a whole new meaning to the words “go with the flow”. Ok, my Darkling’s ….Let’s take a look at the most important astrological events of the month:
May 3rd
Our communication, thinking processes and awareness, in general, will function at optimal parameters. We will find it easier to speak up your mind, and we will also find it easier to relate to other people.
May 8th
We find it easier to articulate our feelings. Of course, feelings are there to be felt, but sometimes knowing how to label, translate, and put your feelings into words can make a big difference.
May 10th
We feel destiny calling. There is a buzz, a pull, a drive to break through the limitations of the past. Of course, any great adventure begins in our minds. When Mercury is conjunct the North Node, we will get our first clues on what this new adventure may be about. To ‘see’ it with our mind’s eyes. This insight can come from within as an aha moment, or from the outside, in the form of news, an opportunity or an inspiration. Pay attention to whatever message comes your way around May 10th, because it is important.
May 11th– New Moon In Taurus
Taurus will bring in an earthy and stable energy of prosperity and abundance. This is a great time to begin a new job, find a new side income or revamp your garden and your wardrobe. Solid and serene are my two adjectives for this New Moon in Taurus. We will get creative and inventive with our resources, perhaps connected to our home and family. This is a great aspect for spring cleaning, remodeling or even purchasing property. The Taurus New Moon will bring in stability and patience and allow us to take our dreams and plans to the next level with grounded intention and fortitude.
May 13th
Our sense of faith and optimism will finally be restored.
May 17th – Venus Conjunct North Node
Venus joins the North Node at the same degree of Gemini, we will be like “Wait a minute: that idea, that thought, that opportunity I was presented last week is REALLY something. It actually feels right. Yes, it is a bit frightening, but there is also that feeling of “rightness”, I have those butterflies in the stomach that tell me yes, this time, I am onto something”.
(If you have planets or angles around 10° Gemini or 10° Sagittarius, this transit, as well as the other Nodal transits, and the whole month of May, will be particularly important for you, and can come with incredible developments and opportunities.)
May 20th
All of a sudden we are here, there and everywhere. Our minds could become quite active, along with our mouths, lol! Communication in all forms, so expect to become quite a bit chattier and ready to explore and seek adventures of all kinds. Pay attention to what is going on, and approach things with a beginner’s mind. And this is when we usually finally find solutions to old problems that felt impossible to solve in the past.
May 23rd– Saturn Goes Retrograde
If some things in your life were kind of sluggish, now they will stop working altogether. Imagine you have an old car that takes ages to start. You expect any moment to crash, and unsurprisingly, one day the car does crash. Is not that you haven’t seen it coming. But the fact that it has stopped working will finally push you to do something about it. Now the problem becomes obvious, it becomes tangible, it becomes a reality. You can’t just get away with it anymore.
When Saturn goes retrograde, you will finally stop, so you can reassess an area of your life that is not working as well as it could be. This is an opportunity to rethink and re-engineer that sector of your life.
May 26th – Full Moon & Lunar Eclipse In Sagittarius
Expect emotions to be quite over the top in nature. Life for many will never be the same after this doozy of an event. The Super Full Moon Lunar Eclipse in Sagittarius will bring up the TRUTH and nothing but the TRUTH. Expect to see quite a few people’s viewpoints coming to the surface to be expressed and acknowledged. Considering Sagittarius rules international travel, this is the first time we could actually see quite a few people being able to finally travel abroad. There are certainly going to be big issues brought up also around education and immigration. This could be when the so-called “vaccination passports” begin. At the very least, there will be major discussions on how to manage a re- emerging economy and travelling again abroad.
May 29th – Mercury Goes retrograde
This Mercury retrograde will be particularly noticeable till June 23rd, expect all kinds of communication mishaps, travel delays, business mishaps and technology breakdowns. I wouldn’t advise on buying major purchases such as laptops, cars or other devices during this time if you can help it. Our minds could be all over the shop with this Mercury retrograde. The best advice I have is to go back over and reflect, revise and redirect any business deals, contracts or written materials we are interested in. This is not the best time to proceed with new projects and plans, again if you can help it.
May 2021 promises to align your heart and soul to the path it was meant to be on.. even if you didn’t initially envision or plan it to be. Isn’t that how life always works though? May 2021 is here to bring in an awakening to what and who we truly value, the understanding of the cycle of change and to remind us that even in the most uncertain times.. at our core.. is a warrior of light that is always ready to for the next adventure and transformation.
In love & Light
