Weekly Starcodes—Planetary Aspect Interpretations & Predictions |
Saturday’s New Moon in Venus-ruled Taurus brings a most fertile time, time to plant gardens and ideas or seed new relationships. It’s a wonderful time to propose, pitch a peace negotiation, share affection, launch a project, campaign, or initiate anything we want to nurture into maturity. Dive into all things Venusian. It doesn't mean that will necessarily get a “yes”, but it can begin a fertile new road.
Because what we focus upon can take root in this very fertile time, let’s not perseverate on worry or hatred, no matter how recalcitrant or obnoxious the people become. Like seeds of a robust weed blowing in the wind, what takes root this week could endure. So, plant goodness and a search for solutions. Notice world events which could plant enduring roots, for better or worse, keep an eye on these seeds in the weeks ahead.

Then the energy begins to buzz and disperse as the Moon enters Gemini late Saturday followed by Mercury into Gemini on Sunday morning. Enjoy multitasking, just don't get spread too thin. On Monday, Venus and the Moon both enter equally fertile, nurturing Cancer, Mars enters earthy Taurus, and Venus sextiles Mars, bringing a balance of the buzz and the earthy fertility. Keep an eye open for new connections and feed old ones.
On Wednesday, the mood shifts as the Sun enters Gemini and the Moon enters Leo, we're back to more summary fair and splashier headlines. Look for potentially fresh information and valuable perspectives as mental Mercury conjuncts Uranus and trines deep Pluto.
It will be a good time to begin to pack up dorm rooms and get ready for the next step. Listen to what politicians have to say, particularly up and coming ones because there is a need for fresh air this week. Listen underneath the surface buzz to what people really mean; it will be easy to be glib and gloss over more challenging information. Be suspicious of propaganda and gossip. Drop assumptions and check facts, particularly when they confirm some personal bias. Enjoy great conversations- -just keep the bullcrap sensors on full.
Friday, May 15: Overnight events or thoughts can leave us discouraged or concerned this morning as the Moon squares Pluto, take it seriously, but get a more balanced perspective before responding. Events can trigger us to remember the last time a similar event came up as Mars conjuncts Chiron. Don’t repeat past mistakes; for the next few days it will be important to remember information and wisdom learned the hard way in the past and apply that knowledge to this present moment. Clear the ground for the new crops, clear weeds, tough health patterns, and bad habits. Without cynicism but with realism, utilize life’s training.
Moon square Pluto 5:25 AM MDT.
Saturday, May 16: Surface tension hovers over healthy earthiness as Mars conjunct Chiron on the Taurus New Moon at 2PM MDT. Manage stressors with kindness and common sense, tempers and stubbornness amps up when we’re over-extended but to flare at others will imitate slamming a door that bounces back to hit us. Instead, let’s cultivate whatever we want to grow. Plant great seeds and seedlings, garden life. Conversation can blossom tonight; we may want to break routine, deal with the unexpected, need to reel in craziness, or crave a spontaneous moment as the Moon enters Gemini and conjuncts Uranus.
Moon sextile Jupiter 6:39 AM MDT, Mars conjunct Chiron 1:33 PM, Moon conjunct the Sun 2 PM, Moon conjunct Mercury 7:01 PM, Moon enters Gemini 8:22 PM, Moon conjunct Uranus 10:16 PM.
Sunday, May 17: The wires and Internet sing as Mercury joins the Moon in multitasking and cross-pollinating Gemini; people want to speak their mind and share news. Stay open and ready to change minds or let go of some fiercely held assumption as Mercury conjuncts Uranus. Take time to integrate any shocking news and be willing to look at the situation from a new perspective. Look for fresh ways to express; write a poem, dance expressively, and listen to the witty buzz. Notice how the trees and plants are communicating, lovely, but pollens can become a real irritant.
Moon trine Neptune 2:15 AM MDT, Mercury enters Gemini 4:26 AM, Moon trine Pluto 5:00 AM, Venus sextile Chiron 12:03 PM, Moon sextile Saturn 1:35 PM, Mercury conjunct Uranus 6:09 PM.

Monday, May 18: Let's not play with other people's emotions but prove they can count on us. Reliability can mean the world to others as the planetary energy changes from an action-oriented extroversion to more grounded but self-protected introversion. Mars leaves fiery Aries to enter earthy Taurus while Venus and the Moon leave buzzy, nervy Gemini and enter deep-feeling Cancer. Our intuition is leaky; we can pick up clues or be sensitive to other people’s feelings as Mercury sextiles Neptune but need to be humble about how we interpret this incoming information. We may need to Insulate our sensitive nerve endings consciously and productively and sense what is our pain, and our responsibility, from others. Our hearts open when we feel safe. Be compassionate but self-responsible; know your edges.
Mars enters Taurus 4:25 PM MDT, Venus enters Cancer 7:05 PM, Moon enters Cancer 7:45 PM, Moon conjunct Venus 7:49 PM. Moon sextile Mars 7:56 PM, Mercury sextile Neptune 10:04 PM, Venus sextile Mars 11: 36 pm
Tuesday, May 19: Let’s take a moment to stop and think about the direction of our life’s progress as Mercury squares the lunar nodes and trines Pluto, notice where we've come from, where we hope to head, and assess how we’re doing on our trajectory. If an event triggers thoughts of mortality waiting in the wings, let’s take it as encouragement to make our time on earth really count. Anxiety could raise its head midafternoon, and we can be tempted to dump it on others, but that would misuse this tension; look at the anxiety squarely and do the personal homework it calls for instead. Tonight, let the light of a beautiful Moon-Jupiter conjunction (exact tomorrow morning) in Cancer pour into the heart and liberate any stuck emotion, free up more room to love the world. Help make the world a cozier place.
Moon square Neptune 1:48 AM MDT, Mercury square the lunar nodes 9:44 AM, Moon square Saturn 1:40 PM, Mercury trine Pluto 4:52 PM.
Wednesday, May 20: This quiet thoughtful morning brings the potential for good luck as well as a high tide of feeling while the domesticating Cancer Moon conjuncts Jupiter. If we feel disjointed or at loose ends midday it can help to putter, make cozy, take care of wounds of all types, and work on ongoing projects. Make good use of free time. Evening unfolds with words, nerves, and drama as the Sun enters Gemini and the Moon enters Leo, just keep it authentic. Listen to honest emotions, no need to get melodramatic to hear oneself.
Moon conjunct Jupiter 7:26 AM, Sun enters Gemini 6:36 PM, Moon enters Leo 8:47 PM, Moon sextiles Sun 8:56 PM, Moon sextiles Uranus 11 12:00 PM, Moon square Mars.
Thursday, May 21: As the Moon opposes Pluto this morning, some sense of loss or feeling unheard can leave us urgent about being seen and connecting; we can alleviate the pressure by being our own appreciative audience and then can move forward in a productive expansive way without any desperate edge. We may need to pick up speed at midday, any plans to take a private quiet retreat suddenly need changing; it's a time of networking and connecting instead. But do check in on elders and people who have survived honest drama recently.
Moon trine Neptune 3:15 AM MDT, Moon opposed Pluto 6:01 AM, Moon sextile Mercury 12:42 PM, Moon trine Saturn 4:05 PM.
