Key
Aspects:
Mars
opposes Saturn retro May 1 at 1:11 AM EDT/ April 30 at 10:11 PM PDT
from 7 Tau 59. Mars conjunct Sun which has already passed opposition.
Pluto retro trines/sextiles from 11 Cap and Neptune from 5 Pisc. Look
for outlets for stuck energy, or greater efforts made possible by discipline
and tension.
Mercury
opposes Saturn retro May 5 at 7:12 AM EDT/ 4:12 AM PDT from 7 Tau 40.
The last of this 3-planet conjunction (Sun & Mars) in Taur to oppose
Saturn. Still mediated by Neptune and Pluto (see above).
Mercury
conjuncts Mars May 7 at 8:33 PM EDT/ 5:33 PM PDT at 13 Tau 01. Exactly
sextiles Chiron at 13 Pisc, trines Pluto retro at 11 Cap. Good times for
persuasion, passionate emphasis on thoughts.
Sun
conjuncts Mercury May 11 at 5:09 PM EDT/ 2:09 PM PDT at 21 Tau 19.
Venus
squares Neptune May 13 at 4:47 PM EDT/ 1:47 PM PDT from 5 Gem 12. Tune
into imaginative creativity, appreciation of the finer things.
Mercury
squares Neptune May 18 at 3:19 AM EDT/ 12:19 AM PDT from 5 Gem 15. If
you need precision, don’t just imagine that it’s there. Pay attention
to details. Otherwise, make something up.
Venus
squares Chiron May 20 at 10:49 AM EDT/ 7:49 AM PDT from 13 Gem 30.
Uranus
squares Pluto retro May 20 at 7:02 PM EDT/ 4:02 PM PDT from 11 Ari 14.
Though this aspect began back in May 2007 (entered orb of 10 degrees) this
square is the third of 7 exact squares lasting until March 2015. This square
symbolizes the likely major changes and upheavals expected over the next
3 years. It is directly connected to the earlier conjunction of these two
planets during the 1960’s. And to emphasize this square, the Moon will
be forming a Cardinal T-Square with them over the next few hours.
Mercury
squares Chiron May 22 at 2:49 AM EDT/ May 21 at 11:49 PM PDT from 13
Gem 32.
Mercury
conjuncts Venus May 24 at 7:53 PM EDT/ 4:53 PM PDT at 18 Gem 52. Also
conjunct Jupiter at 22 Gem, so let the party begin! In Gemini no less! Yak
your heads off over nothing.
Sun
squares Neptune May 26 at 6:25 AM EDT/ 3:25 AM PDT from 5 Gem 20. This
only adds to the festivities (see above) while Venus, Mercury, and Jupiter
in Gem oppose Moon in Sag. Add a little escape, seduction, and imagination
to the expansiveness and pleasure.
Mercury
conjuncts Jupiter May 27 at 3:55 AM EDT/ 12:55 AM PDT at 23 Gem 12.
Venus
conjuncts Jupiter May 28 at 3:28 PM EDT/ 12:28 PM PDT at 23 Gem 32.
The party is peaking, can you tell?

sextiles Neptune May 3-4, Mars trines Pluto May 5, Mercury trines Pluto
May 6-7, Mercury sextiles Chiron May 7, Mars sextiles Chiron May 7-8,
Venus sextiles Ur May 18, Mercury sextiles Uranus May 20.
