The Prevailing Influence for the Month of May
The Stars & the Moon
This month, you’ll spend a great deal of time in solitude thinking about the future prompted by an inner voice that encourages a time out to contemplate, rest, heal, and recharge. A physical, emotional or spiritual recovery may involve the assistance of others, the sanctuary of faith in a higher power, or the personal space to develop a creative talent behind the scenes. Events bring you in contact with those who possess star quality or enhance the opportunity to let your own light shine. After experiencing the uncertainty caused by troubling circumstances, a positive influence is unfolding that heralds a transition with the power to rejuvenate your optimism and re-energize your life leaving you feeling lighter and brighter.

Astro Influence
The most significant planetary event this month is Saturn’s entrance into the cardinal sign of Aries where it will reside for approximately the next two and half years. While there, it motivates the desire to push for a position of power through intense efforts. Although you may need to take a calculated risk to create opportunity, chances are you’ve been taking life or a situation much too seriously—lighten up! Rome wasn’t built in a day; impulsive, reckless actions borne of your frustration to get things moving can be cause for regret. Don’t forget to ask for help or advice when you need it.
Pluto also begins its retrograde trek today, driving up issues surrounding control, manipulation, and power (or powerlessness) within the framework of “the group.” A review offers the chance to look at recurring patterns that signal it’s time to rethink ideals for a personal regeneration that gives you greater control over your life.
