Weekly Summary: MAY 10 - MAY 16 "So much left to know, and I'm on the road to find out"— On The Road To Find Out
Cat StevensThis week's shifts are extremely powerful but may only be seen by looking deep beneath the surface — the waning 'light' of the Moon is especially 'unhelpful' in illuminating the path we're on. Vesta's arrival into Aries on Wednesday pushes forward a determined, decisive attitude that is encouraging us to release the past — cut our losses if necessary and move forward. However, deeply processing any of the 'emotional baggage' or debris that we're trying to jettison may not provide as much satisfaction as we might expect. This week's push really seems to encourage more 'forward-looking' approaches — even if we aren't really sure what we're actually 'looking forward' to. As Mars approaches a conjunction with Chiron, there are plenty of opinions about which direction we should go — as well as plenty of anticipation that we will be going somewhere soon. However, there is also a sense that no one is quite ready to make the 'first move'. Although there is strong desire for self-reliance, there is no escaping the fact that we need to stay connected to others. Both the Sun and Moon make optimistic sextiles to Jupiter ahead of Thursday's 'superior' Sun-Mercury conjunction and Saturday's Taurus New Moon (1:00 PM PDT 25° Taurus). Ceres is closely tied into the Sun-Mercury conjunction — as well as Saturday's Taurus New Moon (1:00 PM PDT 25° Taurus) — providing an undercurrent of nurturing, steady growth. The Mars-Chiron conjunction is also closely tied into the New Moon, completing less than 30 minutes after the New Moon. Chiron was also closely tied into the last lunar cycle — tightly conjunct last month's Aries New Moon and as well as conjuncting Mercury at the Scorpio Full Moon on May 1. Chiron's action is especially significant in light of the fact that Chiron will leave Aries next month and move into Taurus on June 19th (making a final 'dip' back into Aries from September 17, 2026 until April 14, 2027). However, before leaving Aries, Chiron as been sending us important messages — 'healing insights' regarding how to effectively share our individual message with integrity while also effectively connecting to and honoring the messages shared by others. Conjunct Mars, the message grows much louder this week, suggesting a 'pioneer confronting a wilderness of unexplored possibilities with fervor, determination and sensitivity.' The beginnings of true healing have already been 'seeded' but will need to be carefully nurtured in order to take full advantage of the 'heroic', rejuvenating healing capacity offered by Chiron. The liberation offered by Chiron isn't likely to be found in any sort of 'old paradigm' — this 'maverick' energy demands brave, bold, and daring exploration of the inner restrictions and blockages that we face inside of each of us. Although our explorations need to be centered inside ourselves, the New Moon's guidance is telling us to avoid isolation. Connecting our internal vision with 'group-values' is the true power offered by the new lunar cycle that begins at the end of this week.
We find an increased ability to simply "accept the things we cannot change" on Sunday and find the wisdom to recognize where we can actually make a difference. Despite whatever chaos surfaces, there is movement towards stability. The tendency on Monday is to focus on what is 'close' — what affects us directly. There is an undercurrent of impulsiveness and recklessness that needs a 'give and take'. There is some rather confusing overnight activity happening on Tuesday. We're likely to struggle for most of the day, trying to discard some emotional 'baggage'. In Wednesday's atmosphere, there is less support for actually 'processing' or analyzing what's in our past that we're setting aside or leaving behind. Rather, it's a somewhat adventurous focus on 'breaking new ground'. Thursday's deeply intellectual atmosphere may actually lead us to dip into somewhat uncomfortable 'intuitive waters'. Conversation and intellectual interaction is inspired and productive but freedom is paramount and it isn't easy to control where the conversation will lead. There is little inclination on Friday to 'push the envelope' or get out 'ahead of the pack'. But there is also an intuitive sense of optimism and hope for 'blooming stability'. There is an incredibly potent and promising surge of stability and new growth suggested on Saturday. We can finally begin to see our 'platform' and definitively express our insights and individual 'truth' in a way that has not seemed possible or effective before now.

"Every day can be a good day"
This Daily Astrological Forecast is a bit different than most daily forecasts since it isn’t written for each individual Sun Sign. Rather, it is intended to be a bit like an Astrological Weather Report. To read more about this forecast, see this post
The Moon is VOC this morning until arriving in Pisces at 10:39 AM PDT and forming a chaotic square to Uranus. Nonetheless, despite whatever chaos surfaces today, there is further movement towards stability. The Pisces Moon seems to ease any discomfort, helping us to accept whatever circumstances seem to blocking our progress — rather than fighting and struggling pointlessly and aimlessly. The Sun's sextile to Jupiter improves our ability to simply "accept the things we cannot change" and find the wisdom to recognize where we can actually make a difference.
It may be easy to miss the importance of making connections with others today. This is a broadly easy-going, 'smooth sailing' atmosphere. Nonetheless, there is an undercurrent of impulsiveness and recklessness that needs a 'give and take' — interaction with others is needed in order to fully understand today's broader implications and the 'bigger picture'. The tendency is to focus on what is 'close' — what affects us directly. We may be tempted to grab more than we deserve or try to defend others out of loyalty without fully understanding the underlying situation. Today's waning Moon is especially 'unhelpful' in shedding light on what is actually going on beneath the surface.
The Moon goes VOC early this morning (3:03 AM PDT) following some rather confusing overnight activity that culminates with a chaotically troubling Moon-Venus square. The Moon conjuncts Vesta this afternoon (4:32 PM PDT) just before arriving in Aries at 5:03 PM PDT. We're likely to struggle for most of the day, trying to discard some emotional 'baggage'. Even today's Mercury-Jupiter sextile doesn't really provide a broad enough perspective to make sense of today's emotional confusion. Mars is heading towards a conjunction with Chiron that will complete just before Saturday's Taurus New Moon (1:00 PM PDT 25° Taurus), which promises to offer us the freeing 'release' of past emotional baggage that we are looking for today.
The arrival of Vesta into Aries pushes forward a determined, decisive attitude that is encouraging us to release the past — cut our losses if necessary and move forward. Mercury's conjunction with the Sun, coming tomorrow morning, suggests that there is intellectual support for a forward looking approach. In this atmosphere, there is less support for actually 'processing' or analyzing what we're setting aside or leaving behind. Rather, it's a somewhat adventurous focus on 'breaking new ground'. Any attempts to do any sort of 'deep emotional processing' is likely to be stalled by the Moon's conjunction with Saturn this morning (11:09 AM PDT).
Today's superior Mercury-Sun conjunction provides further support for 'forward thinking' approaches. Today's deeply intellectual atmosphere may actually lead us to dip into somewhat uncomfortable 'intuitive waters'. Conversation and intellectual interaction is inspired and productive but freedom is paramount and it isn't easy to control where the conversation will lead. Ceres is closely tied into the Sun-Mercury conjunction — as well as Saturday's Taurus New Moon (1:00 PM PDT 25° Taurus) — providing an undercurrent of nurturing, steady growth. The Moon conjuncts Mars this afternoon before going VOC at 2:32 PM PDT. There are undercurrents of impatience or impulsiveness that suggest conversations become somewhat tense until the Moon arrives in Taurus this evening (7:30 PM PDT).
An early morning (4:24 AM PDT) Moon-Pluto square suggests some degree of intense anticipation ahead of tomorrow's Taurus New Moon (1:00 PM PDT 25° Taurus) — "When are we taking off?". Nonetheless, there is little inclination to 'push the envelope' or get out 'ahead of the pack' — "You go first", "No you!" As Mars approaches a conjunction with Chiron, there are plenty of opinions about which direction we should go — as well as plenty of anticipation that we will be going somewhere soon. However, there is also a sense that no one is quite ready to make the 'first move'. Although there is strong desire for self-reliance, there is no escaping the fact that we need to stay connected to others. There are feelings of instability and uncertainty in this 'dark of the Moon' atmosphere. But there is also an intuitive sense of optimism and hope for 'blooming stability'.
The Moon makes a sextile to Jupiter ahead of today's Taurus New Moon (1:00 PM PDT 25° Taurus), adding to the optimism and stability offered by the surge of New Moon energy. There is incredibly potent and promising new growth suggested here. The Mars-Chiron conjunction echoes the past lunar cycle's 'healing insights' but now the 'whispers' have become full throated, individual expressions of unique and powerful new ideas and new directions. Of course, today's energy is only a beginning — the developments don't unfold all at once. Nonetheless, we can finally begin to see our 'platform' and definitively express our insights and individual 'truth' in a way that has not seemed possible or effective before now.
Today is Friday May 22, 2026
Weekly Summary: MAY 17 - MAY 23 "Salvation lies not in the faithfulness to forms, but in the liberation from them."— Boris Pasternak, Doctor ZhivagoLast Saturday's Taurus New Moon (1:00 PM PDT 25° Taurus) offered a surge of new energy and stabilizing growth initiatives. However, disruptions begin to surface almost immediately. The Moon quickly arrives in Gemini, just after the New Moon, to conjunct Uranus and trine Pluto. Mercury follows the Moon into Gemini, also conjuncting Uranus at the beginning of this week. The new surge of energy quickly becomes 'electric' and, for some, quite overwhelming. Unchannelled nervous energy isn't easy to tame, even though Mars moves into Taurus by Monday afternoon. New tensions begin to surface as Mars in Taurus takes aim at a square to Pluto. Although that square will take a week to complete, there are undercurrents of tension that surface almost immediately. Venus also shifts signs on Monday, moving from Gemini to Cancer. A quick Venus-Mars sextile seems to signal a pleasant glow, especially when the Moon joins Venus in Cancer and also sextiles Mars. However, the Moon's follow-up square to Neptune, later in the evening, quickly 'breaks the spell'. Venus will make a disillusioning square to Neptune by Friday. Essentially, finding the stability in this new lunar cycle is fraught with nervousness, distractions, and intellectual unpredictability. The Sun leaves Taurus on Wednesday and arrives in Gemini, marking one more shift in this week's challenging series of shifts. Perhaps the biggest challenge is to maintain 'ultimate flexibility'. The undercurrents of stabilizing growth remains an important part of the current lunar cycle even though this week's twists and turns keep us from fully grasping where it is all leading. We need at least enough detachment to avoid 'taking the bait' when others seem to try to take advantage of the disruptive series of shifts. The disruption reaches a crescendo on Friday under the Sun-Uranus conjunction. By the end of the week, Mars moves to within two degrees of the square to Pluto and we can feel the tensions building even further. Nonetheless, by the time we reach the Sagittarius Full Moon (May 31, 1:44 PM PDT 9° Sagittarius/Gemini) — which is making a trine to Saturn — we are likely to begin to recognize how the current lunar cycle is actually fostering a reorganization that is leading to the beginnings of an entirely new structural order. Despite this week's shifts and disruptions, as well as the significant, building tension of the upcoming Mars-Pluto square, we will eventually begin to see at least some 'method in the madness' that seems quite overwhelming this week. It is also notable that Mercury makes a square to the lunar nodes this week, foreshadowing a square to the nodes from Uranus on June 11th. These aspects are offering significant, revolutionary shifts through quick, insightful communication that helps us to find a new way forward.
Miscommunication and delays are likely on Sunday. Nonetheless, there is an enthusiastic surge of energy and growth offered by the new lunar cycle. There is a significant amount of unchanneled nervous energy in Monday's environment. While the evening's glow is quite tantalizing, it isn't likely to last for very long. The are some significant 'ego concerns' to contend with on Tuesday. Many of us are prone to simply withdraw from the fray — either to protect a vulnerable ego or to avoid defensiveness and escape conflict. Emotions are unsettled on Wednesday but there is a tendency to maintain some kind of detachment — something like "See No Evil, Hear No Evil, Speak No Evil". For the most part, we'll do better to try to stay on the sidelines. While there may be some 'valiant' attempts at clear communication offered on Thursday, honest communication seems to be shutdown. Attempts to exhibit idealism seem to come off as somewhat self-serving and broadly ineffective. Friday's atmosphere is rife with undercurrents of mistrust and defiance — we just aren't likely to see much outward expression of the building intensity. In essence, we continue to be better served by maintaining balance and, essentially, 'keeping our powder dry. There is essentially a reorganization underway on Saturday that is beginning to reveal new ways — broadly — of seeing our situations and circumstances. To some extent, this may be quite disorienting.
Sunday May 17, 2026
After arriving in Gemini last night, the Moon's sextile to Neptune and trine to Pluto early this morning emphasizes the enthusiastic surge of energy and growth offered by this new lunar cycle. As well, Mercury arrives in Gemini this morning (3:26 AM PDT) heading into an 'electric' conjunction with Uranus this afternoon (5:09 PM PDT). The increased pace is both exhilarating and — at times — possibly overwhelming. It will help to simplify our approach by going directly to 'the heart of the matter'. The Moon goes VOC early this afternoon following a sextile to Saturn (12:35 PM PDT). Miscommunication and delays are likely. We should note that today's activity in early Gemini, squaring the lunar nodes, is bringing up significant karmic issues to resolve — culminating with Uranus moving into a square to the nodes by June 11th.Monday May 18, 2026
The Moon is VOC until late this afternoon (6:45 PM PDT). There is a significant amount of unchanneled nervous energy in today's environment. We might hope that the ingress of Mars into Taurus, earlier in the afternoon (3:25 PM PDT), might help to quiet the atmosphere just a bit. However, once in Taurus, Mars takes aim on a square to Pluto, suggesting building tension continuing well past the completed square on May 25th. Nonetheless, there are some smoother waters this evening. Venus arrives in Cancer by 6:05 PM PDT to sextile Mars. The Moon quickly joins Venus in Cancer and sextiles Mars — but will make an overnight square to Neptune. While this evening's glow is quite tantalizing, it isn't an atmosphere that is likely to last for very long.Tuesday May 19, 2026
The are some significant 'ego concerns' to contend with today and many of us are prone to simply withdraw from the fray — either to protect a vulnerable ego or to avoid defensiveness and escape conflict. We have seen significant excitement stirred by the shift in signs of Mercury, Mars, and Venus in quick succession. A period of adjustment may be needed in order to reestablish a sense of stability. However, the Moon's square to Saturn, shortly after noon, may seem to 'push the issue' and lead to uncomfortable interactions. As well, Mercury's trine to Pluto (and square to the lunar nodes) today further stirs ego involvement and increases the tendency for 'sharp tongues' to go on offense. But ultimately, we'll do better to stay with the process and keep working on finding productive resolutions rather than withdrawing.Wednesday May 20, 2026
The Moon is VOC for much of the day today, from 6:26 AM PDT until 7:47 PM PDT. Emotions are unsettled but there is a tendency to maintain some kind of detachment — something like "See No Evil, Hear No Evil, Speak No Evil". The Sun arrives in Gemini just before the Moon gets to Leo. The Moon reaches a sextile to Uranus and square to Mars this evening, suggesting that 'detachment' shifts to 'bombast and bravado' with the Leo Moon leading the way. For the most part, we'll do better to try to stay on the sidelines today and not 'take the bait' that seems to be 'floating around' — seeking to instigate something — in today's atmosphere.Thursday May 21, 2026
The Moon's overnight trine to Neptune and opposition to Pluto suggests some confusing discomfort that continues into the afternoon. While there may be some 'valiant' attempts at clear communication offered by a Moon-Mercury sextile (11:42 AM PDT), the Moon's trine to Saturn this afternoon (from Leo to Aries), only seems to provoke a 'shutdown' of honest communication. The Moon goes VOC following the trine to Saturn (3:05 PM PDT). Underlying the day's confusion is a troubling Venus-Neptune square that completes late this evening (11:31 PM PDT). Attempts to exhibit idealism seem to come off as somewhat self-serving and broadly ineffective.Friday May 22, 2026
The Sun's conjunction with Uranus today is highly disruptive. The Moon is VOC nearly all day and the implications of today's disruptions may not be readily apparent until after the Moon's arrival in Virgo (just before Midnight). Tomorrow morning's 1st quarter Moon (4:10 AM PDT) is preceded by the Moon's square to Uranus. Meanwhile, today's atmosphere is rife with undercurrents of mistrust and defiance — we just aren't likely to see much outward expression of the building intensity. In essence, we continue to be better served by maintaining balance and, essentially, 'keeping our powder dry.Saturday May 23, 2026
Today's 1st Quarter Moon and the Moon's square to Uranus, trine to Mars, and sextile to Venus — all before noon today — is signaling a dramatic shift in our approach. There is essentially a reorganization underway today that is beginning to reveal new ways — broadly — of seeing our situations and circumstances. To some extent, this may be quite disorienting, suggesting significant amounts of chaos and uncertainty. In some way or another, there seems to be a great deal to 'wrap our minds around' today and today's Virgo Moon may not really be fully capable of discerning exactly where to place our attention. Venus makes a quincunx to Pluto today that complicates how we demonstrate the new approaches that we're trying to express, suggesting that we shouldn't try to push too hard.
Weekly Summary: MAY 24 - MAY 30 "Providence trains us by disappointment, surprises us with unexpected success, and turns our seeming trials into blessings."— Louisa May Alcott, Jo's BoysThe Moon's march, this week, toward next Sunday's early morning Sagittarius Full Moon (1:44 AM PDT 9° Sagittarius/Gemini) begins to help us to focus directly on the future, setting aside some of last week's 'overwhelm' — following a peak of intensity on Monday. Monday's activity is certainly intense — led by a Libra Moon. The Moon sets off a Grand Air Trine that activates Pluto, Uranus, and the Sun while also making an inspiring opposition to Neptune. In essence, the Libra Moon becomes a remarkably effective 'facilitator' of the wild swirl of energies that we have been contending with for much of this year. Monday's incredible surge of energy is 'capped off' by the completion of the Mars-Pluto square, which has been building tensions since the arrival of Mars into Taurus last week (May 18th). The 'fixed sign' square provides an interesting counterpoint to the otherwise freewheeling, 'full throttle' Grand Air Trine. While the energy of a Mars-Pluto square may certainly be explosive, there is a great deal of persistent, stabilizing drive for real breakthroughs in this environment. The energetic unraveling of established assumptions continues with the completion of Sun's trine to Pluto on Tuesday morning, beginning to suggest real purpose and meaning behind the wide array of distractions that surfaced last week. The Moon continues to facilitate — or perhaps instigate — with a move into Scorpio on Wednesday evening. The Moon forms a Fixed T-Square early Thursday morning, involving Mars and Pluto — further aggravating the explosive tension of Monday's Mars-Pluto square and setting up Thursday's demand for some kind of definitive action. Nonetheless, the arrival of Ceres in Gemini, heading toward a conjunction with Uranus, along with the Moon's late afternoon trine to Venus, brings forward a much more manageable atmosphere. Venus also makes a square to Saturn on Thursday evening, which helps to keep us from saying too much without thinking it through first. By Friday, there are some spontaneous, transformative breakthroughs offered. This is not really a question of 'hard work, paying off' but rather, a smooth, providential 'falling into place'. The promise of the current lunar cycle has suggested productive growth. However, the 'ups-and-downs' or 'ins-and-outs' of the process may have seemed quite erratic, unpredictable, and uncertain. But with the Moon's arrival into Sagittarius on Saturday we see something like an 'off-to-races' environment when the Moon opposes Uranus and trines Neptune. The Moon approaches a trine to Saturn that will complete shortly after the Full Moon, We begin to recognize that a new structure is forming. Although the process has seemed to be anything but 'orderly', the restructuring has occurred naturally and collaboratively, without significant conscious, individual input. The Full Moon atmosphere is both revolutionary and protective, suggesting a spontaneous series of developments that seem to have brought us closer to our goal than we might have thought possible.
Sunday offers a somewhat surprising capacity to 'take it all in' — setting aside the disruption and 'overwhelm' that seemed to permeate much of last week. Nonetheless, there is likely quite a bit more going on than what we can see on the surface. While Monday's energy may certainly be explosive, there is a great deal of persistent, stabilizing drive in this environment. While some may be quickly distracted or sidetracked, sharply focused attention has the potential for making significant, transformative breakthroughs and finding creatively inspired solutions. We are challenged to achieve some kind of 'real gain' on Tuesday following Monday's watershed of activity. Some unsteady feelings of doubt develop, leaving us vulnerable to indecision or even manipulation. The potential for seeing 'unfinished business' swirling around Wednesday's atmosphere seems to have us 'chasing our tails' for much of the day. Taking time to observe, without drawing final conclusions, is our best strategy in the unsteady environment. We can begin see ways to resolve many of the disruptive elements of the current lunar cycle on Thursday. The promise of the last New Moon, offering nurturing growth, begins to find an easier 'pathway' forward in spite of what has so far seemed to be a path full of disruptive distractions. There are significant, promising resolutions offered on Friday as this week's tensions and disruptions begin to unfold into transformative breakthroughs. This is not really a question of 'hard work, paying off' but rather, a smooth, providential 'falling into place'. There is something like an 'off-to-races' sort of environment on Saturday. We begin to recognize a new structure forming, bringing us closer to our goal than we might have thought possible.
Sunday May 24, 2026
The Sun sextiles Neptune today, offering a somewhat surprising capacity to 'take it all in' — setting aside the 'overwhelm' that seemed to begin to 'roll in' yesterday. The Virgo Moon's concern over analysis and discernment is softened by an afternoon sextile to Jupiter, suggesting that we are finding a great deal of latitude to simply focus on what inspires us, rather than what concerns or troubles us. Amiable interaction is well supported today — a jovial give-and-take of pleasantries. Nonetheless, there is likely quite a bit more going on than what we can see on the surface. Today's developments seem to open the door to productive shifts over the next few days, even if we can't quite see how from today's vantage point. The Moon goes VOC following the sextile with Jupiter (5:53 PM PDT), leaving us at loose ends this evening.Monday May 25, 2026
The Moon arrives in Libra by 7:33 AM PDT this morning, activating a Grand Air Trine involving Pluto, Uranus, and the Sun. The Moon also makes an inspiring opposition to Neptune this afternoon. These aspects are effectively drawing 'all the major players' into today's whirlwind of activity. In essence, the Libra Moon becomes a remarkably effective 'facilitator' of the wild swirl of energies that have been contending with. The day is 'capped off' by the completion of the Mars-Pluto square that has been building since the arrival of Mars into Taurus last week (May 18th). The 'fixed sign' square actually provides an interesting counterpoint to today's freewheeling, 'full throttle' Grand Air Trine. While today's energy may certainly be explosive, there is a great deal of persistent, stabilizing drive in this environment. While some may be quickly distracted or sidetracked, sharply focused attention has the potential for making significant, transformative breakthroughs and finding creatively inspired solutions.Tuesday May 26, 2026
We are challenged to achieve some kind of 'real gain' from yesterday watershed of activity. The Mars-Pluto square continues to have plenty of 'juice' to stir up tension and produce significant shifts, especially since yesterday's Grand Air Trine has begun to wane. As well, an early morning Moon-Saturn opposition creates some unsteady feelings of doubt that leave us vulnerable to indecision or even manipulation. Even though the Sun completes a trine to Pluto early this morning, there is potential for some 'strong arming' machinations that aren't likely to provide anything like a clear 'win-win' scenario — and leave plenty of unfinished business to contend with ahead of next Sunday's Sagittarius Full Moon (1:44 AM PDT 9° Sagittarius/Gemini).Wednesday May 27, 2026
The Moon goes VOC early this morning following a square to Jupiter (4:31 AM PDT) and won't arrive in Scorpio until late this afternoon (5:52 PM PDT). The potential for seeing 'unfinished business' swirling around today's atmosphere seems to have us 'chasing our tails' for much of the day. The Moon's opposition to Chiron this afternoon (2:25 PM PDT) suggests some disappointment with the attitudes or behaviors of others. Seeking resolutions may seem to leave us rather frustrated — setting the stage for revisiting many of the unresolved issues and 'unfinished business' over the next few days. Taking time to observe, without drawing final conclusions, is our best strategy in today's unsteady environment.Thursday May 28, 2026
The Moon arrived in Scorpio last night (5:52 PM PDT) but really begins to 'take charge' today. The Moon squares Pluto (4:33 AM PDT), opposes Mars (8:15 AM PDT) and makes a quincunx to the Sun (8:22 AM PDT) — all contributing to a troubling dissatisfaction that seems to demand some kind of definitive action. Ceres arrives in Gemini this afternoon (4:48 PM PDT) and the Moon makes a trine to Venus (5:25 PM PDT), suggesting that the evening will be much more easy-going. As Ceres approaches a conjunction with Uranus that will complete next Wednesday, we can begin see ways to resolve many of the disruptive elements of the current lunar cycle. The promise of the last New Moon (which was conjunct Ceres), offering nurturing growth, begins to find an easier 'pathway' forward in spite of what has so far seemed to be a path full of disruptive distractions.Friday May 29, 2026
There are significant, promising resolutions offered today as this week's tensions and disruptions begin to unfold into transformative breakthroughs. This is not really a question of 'hard work, paying off' but rather, a smooth, providential 'falling into place'. The promise of the lunar cycle has suggested productive growth but the 'ups-and-downs' or 'ins-and-outs' of the process may have seemed quite erratic, unpredictable, and uncertain. The Moon trines Jupiter late this afternoon (5:04 PM PDT) and then goes VOC. Later in the evening, the Moon makes a quincunx to Mercury, which may produce some nagging but ultimately irrelevant questions regarding any of the resolutions that have been offered.Saturday May 30, 2026
The Moon arrives in Sagittarius early this morning (5:44 AM PDT) ahead of tomorrow's early morning Sagittarius Full Moon (1:44 AM PDT 9° Sagittarius/Gemini). This is something like an 'off-to-races' sort of environment as the Moon opposes Uranus and trines Neptune. There is little to disrupt our progress. The Moon approaches a trine to Saturn that will complete tomorrow morning, shortly after the Full Moon, We have begun to recognize a new structure forming. Although the process has seemed to be anything but 'orderly', the restructuring has seemed to occur naturally without any conscious, individual input. This atmosphere is both revolutionary and protective, suggesting a spontaneous series of developments that seem to have brought us closer to our goal than we might have thought possible.
