Astrological Winds for Week of May 7, 2012

Monday could be a very odd day energy wise as we have two awkward aspects of Uranus: first Jupiter semi-square Uranus could raise frustration levels on how much you have to do as you realize what you’ve committed to with zeal is losing its flavor a bit or is even becoming a bit of a nuisance somehow. The problem is that what you set out to do may have been a bit too lofty or has gotten sidetracked somehow. In any case restlessness is setting in on some level and you are beginning to desire change or freedom from what it is. Mars quincunx Uranus has you wanting to resolve it now and partaking in awkward or un-thought-out adjustments. Actions are impulsive/rash now and can do more damage than good – careful. Also, these two aspects can lead to temperamental/startling outbursts that turn others away/off. There’s no doubt you need to do something physical today to blow off some of this energy especially with Moon in Sagittarius also aspecting Mars and Uranus.

Tuesday, Mercury ingresses into Taurus grounding and stabilizing communications/business/education for a few weeks.  This is a time when we can slow down our thoughts and really think things through thoroughly (say that 5x fast!).  We have good common sense and are in touch with emotions and cycles enough to consider more than just intellect in our decisions.

Wednesday is the day this week when the Moon (in Capricorn) locks into the Uranus/Pluto square with a square to Uranus and conjunction to Pluto. Expect some intense news on the politics of the world this week with the European elections, etc. Emotions are highly charged now over austerity/banks/big business, etc. and this could mark an emotional turning point. This could be a carry over of Full Moon in Scorpio too with secrets being revealed both personally and in  Collective worlds of international finance, multinationals, war, birth control, etc.

Mercury’s sextile to Neptune on Thursday and the Moon in a Grand Trine in Earth with Sun and Jupiter should calm things down a bit and get intuition/sensitivity heightened to the point of imparting wisdom and inspiring imagination. A day when we will be able to perceive beauty in the world somehow that gives some hope. This is also the energy of spiritual/religious learning.

Friday’s sesiquadrate between Saturn and Chiron can weave into the background themes of these times. This can show how we are stuck in patterns/behaviors that are so ingrained and rigid that we are our own worst enemy in frustrating and blocking solutions to the problems we face together, and that even when we do attempt to do so that it can actually divert us from our original purpose. This could be currently irresolvable energy.  Mercury’s conjunction to Vesta should open stable lines of communications with those we feel sibling-like in certain shared behaviors and deepen/solidify these relationships.

Saturday’s Sun semi-square Uranus combines with 3rd Quarter Square of Moon in Aquarius to the Sun in Taurus to perhaps bring us some challenge this day that will have us wanting to rebel or express ourselves uniquely/freely. Small acts of rebellion may win out over stability this day, but likely won’t get out of hand. Plans may not work out/small surprises may be in store. Pluto’s sextile to Chiron is another long term background, collective influence that has us thirsty to discover more about ourselves and our world on deeper levels. Opportunities for deep transformative healing over a period of time are available now if worked with.

Sunday’s Sun conjunct Jupiter in Taurus can bring constructive optimism. This is a day to take in more/expand your vision/experience that can bring deeper understanding. People will be generous and gregarious in general. The biggest issue will be overly inflated egos for some, and also just trying to do/take in too much. Mercury’s trine to Mars and semi-square to Venus will feed this energy above and want to work with it in some form(s). Minds will be quick/witty and wanting to share what’s on them. A real nice mix of self/intellect/action/emotion on this day could work some miracles.

Next week has the biggest 2 astrological events in weeks: Venus goes retrograde and a Solar Eclipse/New Moon at 1* Gemini.
