Astrology Overview for May 08-14, 2017
The week begins with Mercury continuing to align with Uranus in Aries. This influence goes on all week and can create an enormous amount of mental stimulation and excitement. Mundane aspects of life can become a little dull and unattractive. Essentially we are looking for an edge and can become more easily impatient when we meet limitations or obstacles. The upside of this influence however is that it can give us a desire for new interests and subjects, and push us to initiate new beginnings whereas in the past we may have been reluctant to make a move.
Also this week Mars continues its right angle with Neptune. This is the trickster influence bar none. Because Mars is very much to do with of our desires, our drive, and is our physical energy, located as it is in Gemini it can be somewhat more impulsive. Along with the combination between Mercury and Uranus, it's going to be more difficult for us to sit still for more than five minutes. But this is the classic smoke and mirrors, because such can be compulsion to pursue anything that we find pleasurable, whilst Neptune can distort the reality so that what we try to hunt down is not necessarily what we think it is, has been misrepresented, or is being dishonestly represented. If there is someone that you're finding exciting in your love life, get to know them a little better before making your final decision. If there is a big-ticket item that you're interested in, and a car would not be a surprise with Mars in Gemini, be absolutely sure about its services history, past maintenance and affordability.
However Mars does forge a much more delightful link this week with the planet of growth and optimism and in astrology, traditionally of good fortune, Jupiter. These two are egging each other on in a really positive manner and the combination can give us much more self-confidence but especially about expressing our ideas. With Jupiter about travel and Mars about motion in the sign of Gemini, many of us could be on the move, and if it is to somewhere that's richly interesting, that is all for the better.
From Monday to Thursday the Sun continues its superb angle to the planet of transformation Pluto. Although Pluto can be about elimination, this aspect is very much more about transformation, and with both located in solid earth zodiac signs in Taurus and Capricorn respectively, the changes that we can carry out which are well planned and executed and are working towards a deeper connectivity with our truest potential, can be very long lasting.
This week also sees on Wednesday a full Moon in the sign of Scorpio. This intense lunation can be very much to do with possessions, money, property, and luxury goods. But what we are being challenged to do here is to balance our desire for such things against the reality of making our budget add up every day in our personal situations, which comes from the energy of Taurus. It is possible therefore the some unexpected expenses could creep in in the following two weeks, for what we can do is try to rein in any temptation to spend cash or indulge ourselves in ways which are not necessarily good for our souls. Furthermore, this Full Moon can also be very important in very close relationships. If intimacy is working well in your tie, or cooperation in a business relationship, this will be something to celebrate. If however there is in such tranquil communication or connection going on, it may need challenging.
However, perhaps the most important events of this week also occurs on Wednesday when the point of destiny, the North Node reverses back into the sign of Leo. Over the last nineteen months, it has been located in the virtuous Virgo, balanced by the South Node, in the more emotional Pisces. This new nodal access, is between the North node in Leo and the South in Aquarius. In some ways this is going to be about balancing our egos against the greater good in other words the more spiritual dimension of the sign of Aquarius. But the thing there is an opportunity for us all to try to embrace a more self creative side of our natures and potentials over the next year and a half.
