Sunday, May 31st: The Moon transits Scorpio, the sign that rules regeneration, for the entire day.

The Sun squares Neptune, 8:08 AM: Typically when these two planets combine, we are drawn inward to connect with our inner self, or to commune with our inner spiritual goddess. All of us are much more psychically sensitive and may want to retreat from the day-to-day world. And, with these two planets staying connected for the next couple of days, we may not feel very hopeful and will want to avoid negative, or overly dramatic, people. This can be an enjoyable time for a retreat, a visit to the spa, or just sitting on the beach watching the waves roll in and out. All of us will feel more energetic on Monday, but we will continue to take it slow.

The Moon sextiles Pluto, 9:40 AM: This could be an especially good morning to take on some weekend warrior chores. With Mercury retrograde, and considering the overall effects of Neptune, all activities with this transit can seem like meditation. We are interested in meaningful conversations, not just chitchat.

The Moon squares Jupiter, 12:31 PM: We seek to get away from the idea of work this afternoon. This is a beneficial time to look for a diversion or entertainment. If the weather is right, this is a great time for a drive.

All times are CDT.

Saturday, May 30th: The Moon starts the day void-of-course in Libra, but she is no longer void-of-course when she enters unyielding Scorpio, at 4:34 AM. We definitely feel more in-control as the Moon enters Scorpio.

The Sun conjuncts Mercury, 11:56 AM: This is the mid-point of the Mercury Retrograde time frame. It is a wonderful time to be in contact with old friends from your past; rethinking an old plan so that it is new again; or, just reminiscing about the past. All of us are “more chatty” today about the way things impact our lives. We take things more personal today. This aspect is in effect for a couple of days.

The Moon trines Neptune, 11:31 PM: In the evening we are looking for a calm and peaceful place so that we can reflect and focus some time on our self. It’s a perfect night for pleasant dreams.

All times are CDT.

Friday, May 29th: The Moon journeys through artistic Libra, for the whole day; however, she does turn void-of-course in Libra, at 3:20 PM. Try to take care of your more important activities before mid-afternoon.

The Moon sextiles Jupiter, 1:24 AM: This combination of planets will certainly help us to have a good night’s sleep. If you’re awake this early morning, you’re looking for some entertainment or distractions.

Mercury squares Neptune, 1:59 AM: Ahhhh, Neptune, the psychic tsunami, once again enters our world. Our normal way of talking, and hearing, is meshed with the psychic and unseen world. We hear all of the messages people are sending, even if those messages are in direct disagreement with each other. This will make it very hard to understand what the truth is because all of the messages are true at the same time. Just because something feels right or true, doesn’t make it right. Follow your psychic responses but double check to make sure your views are grounded in intellect. In the real world, it will be hard to remember things and we won’t be able to find the words we want to express our thoughts and feelings. Since this aspect is in effect for couple of days, keep your agenda simple and try not to make your life overly complex.

The Moon opposes Uranus, 7:17 AM: This is a great morning to call in sick for work or cancel any appointments you may have. We don’t want to be rushed this morning. Keep your morning light and you will do fine.

The Moon squares Venus, 3:20 PM: We are focused on our work and trying to get things done. Be careful that you don’t try to please everyone as a way to keep the peace this afternoon. Try and take some time for a coffee break.

The Moon is now void-of-course in Libra, at 3:20 PM, and will remain so until she enters Scorpio, at 4:34 AM, Saturday morning. This is the start of a 13-hour Moon void-of-course.

With the Moon void-of-course in Libra, it’s a nice time to have dinner with an old friend or lover.

All times are CDT.

Thursday, May 28th: The Moon resides in Libra, the sign of the mediator, for the entire day.

The Moon trines the Sun, 6:31 AM: We feel positive and hopeful about the day. Our heart and our head are in alignment.

The Moon trines Mercury, 1:00 PM: This afternoon we are able to get our point across as people seem more open to our ideas. This is a wonderful time to contact your existing client base, or to take care of routine activities and chores. Today, people will want to share more about their life story than you may want to know.

The Moon trines Mars, 4:25 PM: We continue to feel positive energy throughout the afternoon. We feel confident about what we are doing. If you have to work with the public, make sure that you sell them on the idea of how good your services are for them. Consensus rather than competition is the path to follow.

The Moon squares Pluto, 11:10 PM: We feel emotionally drained this evening. Find some time to be away from others. This is such a perfect evening for a long soak in a hot tub!

All times are CDT.

Wednesday, May 27th: The Moon begins the day void-of-course in Virgo, but she enters strategy-oriented Libra, at 4:42 PM, and is no longer void-of-course. You may want to plan your more important activities after the Moon enters Libra.

Our energy level is very strong throughout the whole day even with our void-of-course Moon. Try to focus on the things that you are most interested in doing, and you won’t have much conflict.

Mercury conjuncts Mars, 5:37 AM: Quicksilver gets a turbo boost! This is a very mentally stimulating energy! It could easily make it difficult to sleep, or just difficult to turn your brain off. Throughout the day this could wear us down and make us come across as crabby and impatient. In a different environment, these energies are great for sporting events, online gaming, or a physical test of endurance. Because Mercury is retrograde, we may be thinking about getting back on our workout program or diet and exercise regime. For the rest of us; we will just be speaking before we think! This aspect is in effect for couple of days.

The Moon enters Libra, at 4:42 PM, and is no longer void-of-course. We feel calmer and in-balance as the Moon enters Libra.

The Moon sextiles Saturn, 7:16 PM: If you’re working late, you are in the flow and getting things done. This can be a good night to look at holiday photo albums, get your clothing drawers in order are right effect “to do” list for tomorrow.

All times are CDT.

Tuesday, May 26th: The Moon occupies Virgo, the sign of health and hygiene, for the entire day. She does turn void-of-course in Virgo late in the day, at 9:21 PM:

The Moon squares Mercury, 2:43 AM: I wonder who’s talking in their sleep tonight. We are mentally active very early this morning. If you are awake at this time, you may need to find something to distract you, so you can go back to sleep.

The Moon trines Pluto, 10:36 AM: All of us feel much more in control and on-track this mid-morning. This is a very favorable time for any kind of business planning, or trying to make the very best use of your resource base. And, what’s most important is how we feel about it, not what we think about it.

The Moon sextiles Venus, 9:21 PM: This could be a great evening for any type of activity from lying around on the couch watching a movie to entertaining friends or clients. It’s a good evening to be social, but we aren’t in the mood for drama.

The Moon is now void-of-course in Virgo, at 9:21 PM, and remains so until she enters Leo, at 4:42 PM, on Wednesday afternoon. This is the beginning of a 19-hour long Moon void-of-course timeframe.

All times are CDT.

Monday, May 25th: Happy Memorial Day holiday! The day begins with the Moon void-of-course in Leo; and, she remains so until she enters compassionate Virgo, at 3:52 AM.

The Moon squares Saturn, 6:48 AM: This is a great morning for all those things that you have to do, but you don’t want to do. We could be feeling nostalgic about the past remembering when we didn’t have to be so responsible. Don’t let yourself get too negative in your analysis.

Venus squares Uranus, 12:09 PM: When these two planets connect, our Bohemian side is much more activated. We will want more freedom in our personal choices. If you are a rigid person, these energies can make you feel tense and trapped. If you are a more flexible person, this can be a time of inspiration, motivation, or confusion. Relationships that have outlived their usefulness will be tested by this combination of planets. Keep your exit strategies handy as we may not know exactly what we want.

The Moon squares the Sun, 12:19 PM: We assess our personal goals. This can be a time of course correction, and refining those personal strategies. Definitely, get out of the office for lunch!

Mars squares Neptune, 6:39 PM: Astrologically, this is a very unusual pairing of planetary energy. Mars is the expression of yang, while Neptune is the expression of yin. This may make many of you want to retreat, to go inside and be safe. Some of you may feel confused about your identity and your destiny. You may be in search of something that gives life a greater meaning; while many others will feel their own inner emotional tsunami, yet all the while looking for a safe harbor. Alcohol and drugs also fall under the influence of Neptune. Be careful that you don’t overdo it. Since this aspect has been in effect for at least three days, and will continue to be in effect for another two to three more days, the overall energy may feel flat or uninspiring. Just make sure that you get some designated quiet time while these two planets are influencing us.

The Moon opposes Neptune, 11:34 PM: By the late evening, we add even more intense layers of psychic sensitivity. We may really need some alone time. Other people’s energies can really affect us and shift our mood, even if we’re not conscious of it. Choose your company wisely.

The Moon squares Mars, 11:51 PM: Now is the perfect time to open that bottle of wine and soothe that inner child. Our emotions are tense and out there for everybody to see. If you’re up this late, you may find it difficult to fall asleep.

All times are CDT.

Sunday, May 24th: The Moon transits Leo, the sign that rules the acting profession for the entire day. She does turn void-of-course early in the morning, at 5:49 AM, and remains so throughout the rest of the day.

The Moon trines Uranus, 5:49 AM: We’re up early and feeling energized about our day. We are wanting to get things done but only at our pace.

The Moon is now void-of-course in Leo, at 5:49 AM, and remains so until she enters Virgo, at 3:52 AM, on Monday morning. This is the beginning of a 22-hour void-of-course Moon.

With the Moon void in Leo, it’s the perfect time to entertain your inner child.

This whole week we are feeling the influence of Neptune which increases our psychic sensitivity. This can easily be a time when people are more self isolating or seeking a greater connection with their own sense of source/spiritual connection. Sometimes Neptune can make us feel very depressed and even suicidal. Try not to let yourself get drawn into those emotional eddies. Yoga, tai chi, meditation, praying, or just taking a long walk along the beach will be the perfect solutions for Neptune’s urges.

All times are CDT.

Saturday, May 23rd: The Moon journeys through regal Leo for the entire day.

The Moon sextiles Mars, 8:16 AM: We are awake and feeling energized this morning. This is a great time for a workout or to get those morning chores done. Nothing seems impossible this morning.

The Moon sextiles Mercury, 4:34 PM: Our communication and organizing skills are highlighted this afternoon. With Mercury retrograde, this is a great time to be cleaning out your closets, helping other people clean out as their closets (emotionally and spiritually), or contacting people you haven’t talked to in a while. We are able to get our point across easily.

The Moon conjuncts Jupiter, 11:05 PM: Even though it’s in the latter part of the evening, we are feeling very energized and restless. This would be a great night to drive to the beach or just to get away for the weekend. We are in a partying mood and be careful not to overdo it.

All times are CDT.

Friday, May 22nd: The Moon starts the day void-of-course in the emotionally expressive Cancer. She does enter Leo, at 4:42 PM, and is no longer void-of-course. The Moon in Cancer feels more comfortable with familiar surroundings and familiar problems. With the Moon void for the majority of the working day, plan your more important activities after 4:42 PM.

The Moon enters vibrant Leo at 4:42 PM and we are feeling more energized.

The Moon sextiles the Sun, 7:47 PM: With this aspect, this a very good time for almost any kind of activity but making connections with people on a more personal level is definitely favored during this time. We are ready to help.

The Moon trines Saturn, 7:51 PM: This is certainly a good time for a practical use of your time and energy. You are seeing the bigger picture and how things fit together. Seeking are giving advice is favored with this planetary connection.

The Sun opposes Saturn, 8:35 PM: Since this aspect has been in effect for the last couple of days, we may have been judging ourselves more harshly than usual. We may feel that others are demanding more of us and/or not appreciating what we’ve already done. This is a time of self judgment. Be sure and look at the whole picture and not only at what you didn’t accomplish. On the positive side of this energy, this is a great time for long-term planning and with Mercury retrograde, reviewing our long-term strategies to tweak or improve them. Saturn demands that we have to be real.
