Overview

This month is dominated by the conjunctions of the personal planets with Jupiter & Uranus in the sign of Taurus. Humanity hasn’t had this experience for over 84 years (the 1930s-40s). A lot has changed and a lot hasn’t, right? Up to this point we’ve spent a significant amount of time pushing for something new, forging a new path ahead, clearing & scorching the field & planting our seeds. Starting now we are to take a step back, see the impact of our actions (positive, neutral, or negative), and assess what it’s really going to take to manifest the things we’d set out for. The importance of these considerations can’t be overstated. 

  • Having experienced what we’ve experienced and knowing what we know now, what can we really do? 

  • What needs to be pruned? 

  • What requires more investment? 

  • Is it time to give up on something to move forward with something else? 

  • What will give us material stability?

This month we have to distinguish between hobbies and work, curiosity and love, and ideologies and actions. Shaking our spiritual, mental, emotional, and physical foundation–or putting it at risk–is no longer an option, which means we’ve got maturing to do in one or more areas of our lives. No self-judgment here, just resolve… and a willingness to do things a more ‘traditional’ way (Taurus) now that you see what the other way (Aries) has given. The Pluto retrograde drives this point home, giving us the opportunity to consider what we can truthfully maintain long-term. Authenticity will show us the way that’s best for us. The strength of our willingness to put in the work required will be revealed. If we find that we’re lacking strength of will, then we must be honest with ourselves about if we really want the thing(s) we’re striving for OR if it was a goal(s) we created years ago to help pull us out of our circumstances at the time–in essence, a placeholder. Again no judgment, just liberation from old ways of being if it resonates. There may be more yet to dream, to envision. Maybe a purposeful life is just beginning…

MAY 2024 Astrology Insights

Working with the moon cycle

Every moon cycle can be divided into 4 phases:

  1. New moon - Use these first 7 days to rest more by keeping your schedule light and prioritize extra time with Spirit.

  2. Waxing moon - Over these 7 days you’ll notice that your motivation and momentum increases. Take action in pursuit of your goals!

  3. Full moon - These 7 days will give you peak energy and drive. This is great for social activities like events, meetings, etc.

  4. Waning moon - These final 7 days are best for knocking out the  “To Do” list and strategizing.

Taurus Moon Cycle (May 7th - June 5th)

The archetype of Taurus represents our physical bodies, Nature, material possessions, activities or things that bring pleasure, and money. In true Taurus fashion, this smorgasbord of options is available for us to explore what we can do to create an experience of abundance. Restriction isn’t a ‘thing’ for Taurus so don’t approach this cycle from an either/or perspective, e.g. I can either focus on this or that. Rather, address it all! Wear (or purchase) clothing that feels luxurious/or and conveys luxury. Get the most delicious dish at that restaurant. Use decadent creams and oils on your body; wear the expensive fragrance. Start a garden. Spend time at the park. Upgrade your stuff - phone, laptop, shoes….  Get a massage. And don’t forget to put some of the extra money away into your savings (liquid assets).

Working with the personal planets

Mercury is associated with our mind, skills, communication, & commerce/markets

Venus is associated with our values, money, possessions, and love

Mars is associated with our ambition, physical energy, and will

Mercury in Aries (March 9th - May 14th)

Personal Insight

When Mercury--the planet that rules communication, perception, and thinking--leaves the heavy, watery depths of Pisces and enters the creative and instinctual clarity of Aries, it is as though a fog clears. We get a reprieve from the mental swings and can now take the wisdom and apply it to the new ideas that are guaranteed to spring forth during this transit. That wisdom gained from the transit through the elder Pisces sign helps us to sift through the inspired thoughts that Aries brings and determine which would be pursuits that require long-term investment and which would be for creative expression. 

Business Insight 

Mercury’s transit through Aries is great for neutralizing second-guessing and sabotaging beliefs. The fire of Aries makes decision-making exceptionally clear and direct… and most importantly, authentic to the integrity of the vision for the business. If you’ve been going back and forth on anything, this will be the transit to support courageous action. On the flip side, watch out for off-the-cuff communication styles. There is not much ‘polish’ with this transit so take a break before any heightened emotional exchange - whether excitement or frustration.

Mercury in Taurus (May 15th - June 2nd)

Personal Insight

Mercury in Taurus helps us take all those vibrant and creative ideas that we were inspired by throughout the Aries transit and helps us figure out how to bring them into reality. Practical action becomes easy to plan out with consideration for the time, energy, and resources needed. Circle back to those areas where you have already determined are ripe for long-term investment, but also be sure to explore fully all the creativity as well as that which will keep you balanced over time. You will also find that Mercury in Taurus drastically improves your self-esteem and increases the desire to feel good and look good. 

Business Insight 

Mercury in Taurus is a double-edged sword. On the one hand, it provides a keen eye for determining ways to increase revenue or even new business opportunities. This can be incredibly useful if the past few months (or year) have been difficult. On the other hand, this transit can amplify the behavior of being set in your ways or being unwilling to change or take calculated risks that would benefit the business in the long-term. It could also compel you to spend more money on the business; while this isn’t negative on its own, you must weigh the cost vs return on investment. Would the cost DIRECTLY drive revenue? If you’re not already making your financial goals, then wait for another time if the answer is no. If you are making your goals, then go ahead and spend the money!

Venus in Taurus (April 29th - May 22nd)

Personal Insight

Venus in Taurus gives the highest expression of abundance in both money and material goods. Expect an uptick in growth with these two areas regardless of where this shows up in your natal chart. Also, prioritizing quality over quantity is huge! This transit also allows for deeply healing, reinvigorating, and pampering experiences as Taurus also represents our physical body and our sensual nature. Schedule those massages, hair & nail appointments, or solo lunch dates and truly ENJOY the blessings that you have access to - this is also how you show gratitude for what you’ve been given.

Business Insight 

Venus in Taurus can support investments in better quality goods, technologies, or systems that maintain a level of excellence for the business. It can also bring in more money regardless of where it is in the business chart. However, if you want to leverage a greater influence of this increase, then make sure to put more attention on activities that are associated with the house in which this transit occurs.

Venus in Gemini (May 23rd - June 15th)

Personal Insight

Venus in Gemini brings attention to our platonic relationships. Examples of this would be our local community and friends, siblings and cousins, and coworkers. Expect there to be strengthening of existing, healthy relationships, healing for unhealthy ones (which may or may not mean they remain intact), and a reconsideration and/or expansion of what we consider to be Community overall. Unhealthy relationships will be asked to adjust into greater interdependence and open-heartedness. This is a focus on “we” (i.e. what benefits all) and less on “me” (i.e. what do I get out of it) - but of course, “me” is still included in “we”.

Business Insight 

Venus in Gemini is the best transit for selling via all forms of communication: sales calls, DMs, newsletters, ads, billboards… you name it! If you have any scheduled marketing strategy that is being deployed for a new product or service, then you can expect to see nice strong sales. If you don’t have anything ‘new’ to introduce to your market, then take this transit to reinforce the best of what you offer. Those who communicate regularly and intelligently (remember - your audience is sophisticated) will have increased revenue while those who choose not to take up space will see a decrease!

Mars in Aries (April 30th - June 7th)

Personal Insight

Mars in Aries highlights our relationship to Instinct. There are two ways that we experience instinct: primal and soul. The primal instinct is inherent to our physical body consciousness which is interconnected with the instinctual nature of our fellow mammals. We are not separate from our animal family (we're literally a member of the Animal Kingdom) and as such, the clarity and purity of the primary drivers of Life are our inheritance. Give thanks. But as deeply "self-reflective" animals (i.e. humans), we can also become aware of our soul instinct. This is our Higher Mind which is the gatekeeper to Choice who provides us the options of "react" and "respond" among others. With this choice comes the awareness of Time and the consequences of our actions beyond what is happening in the immediate moment. Mars in Aries shows us how we're using our power.

Business Insight

Mars in Aries asks you to tighten up how your business presents its brand in the market. This is the time to bring coherent messaging, images, colors, fonts, etc across all platforms and offerings. The longer your business exists, the more curated and specific the brand should be until eventually it becomes its own pillar in the industry. There are also times when you need to be more 'polarizing', i.e. differentiate yourself from the crowd. That time may be now if you find that you're losing traction.
