MoonWeek Libra thru Capricorn

It's a week with a full moon in Scorpio, May Day and some amazing outer planet action. There will be some secrets slipping out that have been gravitating towards the surface for a while. Mercury gets cuddly with various planetary bodies and Venus takes on Pluto. It's a week that peaks in the middle but has plenty of energy to make the end feel like the beginning.

Monday the Moon is in Libra, that sense from the weekend that there is a solution that appeals to everyone is still there. Mars squares Jupiter putting some energy and potential explosions in the air. They don't have to be devastating explosions it can be of creativity, passion or just general clean up the cave bursts of energy.

Venus is also trine Neptune, they are both in air signs and it could be some public communication of secret passions or addictions of a sexual nature. It's been awhile since a high-ranking person has been caught in a peccadillo and this is the window. Personal level use of this energy is to look at some of the things that 'control' you, foods, drugs, activities that may not be so wholesome and get a different perspective on your attraction to them.

Tuesday is Mayday!, celebrated in many ways and now a bit out of sync on the calendar this year it's near the 'cross quarter' full Moon, which happens tomorrow. For those in the northern hemisphere it's a celebration of life and the power of the sexuality of the natural world.

The moon moves into Scorpio today and the middle of the week is about secrets and the depths of our beings, communities, countries and other organizations. Check all address boxes on emails, make sure of the numbers you call and search in yourself to see if you need to come clean about something to someone. It's always better to let the cat out of the bag yourself. If it gets out on it's own you're likely to get scratched. It's not true that 'words will never hurt me.' Given the choice between sticks and stones or the words of a secret many will gladly gather the sticks and stones instead. So mean what you say and say what you mean always works out as a better theorem.

Wednesday we still have the Scorpio moon and that deeper part of us near the surface. Scorpio always gets the stereotype of sexuality but that's because it's a deep part of us, hidden from the day to day. Under this aspect all the hidden parts are trying to peek through. Scorpio is also about surgery, deep study of languages and the occult, psychic natures and the like. The Sun and Mercury are conjunct, at the same place in the sky; it's in Taurus and can bring down some powerful and gentle communication on the nature of our home life. Macro the home we are all riding around the Sun, and in the micro our own home spaces. This is a great aspect for artists and communicators. Everyone is an honorary poet today, so wax poetic and let the muse through you. It's also an amazing opportunity to tune up your relationship, today those sweet, gentle and heartfelt words won't bounce off your beloved but will sink in deep giving both a sense of connection.

Thursday and Friday is a trick passage. When the moon 'aspects' planets it's like when someone at a round table is across from you (180degrees), square to your left or right (90degrees) or conjunct (0degrees). The moon is 'void of course' when it has no more aspects in its transit of a sign. This week's lunar transit through Sagittarius is free of aspects from Thursday afternoon until Saturday morning. It's in Sag a sign currently with Jupiter and Pluto in it, heavy players to be sure. There is this 'free zone' though and in Sag can give us the chance to really sense for direction and path. Whether mind, body or soul we have the ability to see it as a 'thing', our direction that is. Like Sag the archer we have a lot of energy stored in the bow, ready to be transferred to the arrow with the release. So now is a passage to really fix to arrow on the target. The arrow is the desires and goals we have and before we release it we can gain the connection between it and the target. To make them one thing, meld them together and then let it fly!

Saturday whether you were ready or not the arrow is in the air. Mercury is busy aspecting both Saturn and Uranus within hours of each other. It's been a week with communication being dense and hard-core. Now it takes it up a notch and gets fully revolutionary and slips into the 'instant karma' zone. Like some crazy movie that when you say something it happens. A good passage for us to use some care about what we say, how we say it and what part of us it came up from. It's a transit to experiment with saying your deepest desires, at least to the universe if not to the person concerned, get them up to the top part of your mind, repeat them like a special mantra or magick spell. Suspend your disbelief and what you may find hanging up is the path way to your dream life.

Sunday is the day of rest but for the planets today it's powerful. It's Mother's Day in the usa so and even though it's a 'made up' day who can hate on observing a day for mother's? So make sure you have some flowers and gratefulness to mom. The moon is now in Capricorn the astral CEO so we have the big picture view setting going on in our brains. After the upwelling this week of secrets and desires now we can integrate it or cast it off with the sometimes cold vision of Capricorn.

Jupiter trines Saturn in fires signs (Sag-Leo) and Venus is opposite Pluto (Gemini-Sag). These outer planet meetings are big on the buildup and take a few days to release. The Jupiter/Saturn pairing can be explosive, they are opposite energies, but here mix in a sweet aspect. It's in fire signs and the passion will be turned up to 11, it's a day to take some action on your projects, get some paint on the canvas or some words on the page. Volatile people can be like emotional roadside bombs, don't appease them but certainly don't tease them either. The Venus/Pluto opposition puts a sweetness on the arena of disaster and war. Not likely that all the major religions would give up warring and turn towards just focusing on the evolution of their flocks but there will be an infusion of higher morals in this area. At any time the most evil entity can bloom into an angelic presence. We see it in our own minds every day, one breath angel the next demon. Now is the time to choose up, getting your ratio up to 3 breaths angel and one demon is a start. It only takes one small candle to illuminate the darkest cave.
