Astrology for Week of May 20, 2019

It is a slow week for the cosmos with only a few astrological aspects, but there is good energy to grab and work to your advantage.

On Tuesday, May 21, 2019 both the Sun and Mercury move from the zodiac sign of Taurus and into the sign of Gemini. Mercury is the planetary rule of Gemini and feels right at home in the sign. It will be in its home sign for the next three weeks. 

Gemini is an air sign and rules the mental realm. Gemini's are curious, idea generators, and communicative. They like to explore new places and ideas, make new friends, and are very social. Chatty is definitely a quality. However their moods are changeable and can go up or down with the energy. The symbol of Gemini is the twins.

So with Mercury being in its home for three weeks, it will be a busy time in that house of the zodiac. It will feel like things are moving in all directions. Mercury will give full power to a focus on studying, communication, and decision-making.

Let's not forget the Sun, which will conjunct with Mercury, intensifying each other's power. The light of the Sun will bring clarity to the ability to communicate and make decisions based on clear information. There will be a lighter playful energy to the mental space. This will be a good time for brain-storming as ideas and lots of them may flow.

A positive aspect for 3 weeks.

The planet Mars is in Sextile to Uranus. Sextile means both planets are at a 60 degree angle to each other signifying that they are in harmony and stable.  However, both planets are action oriented, which means the opportunity (or pressure) to take action to change something that needs to change about your life, behaviors, or beliefs is doubled. Ultimately it is up to you whether or not you take advantage of this energy.

At the time of this Sextile, Mars is in the sign of Cancer where the water sign is dampening its fire. Uranus is in the sign of Taurus, an earth sign that grounds Uranus's air energy also toning down its power.  Normally a planet of fire and a planet of air would surely create something out of control, but the power of both planets are reigned due to their placements in the zodiac. Their energies won't go to extreme. Another positive factor is that the signs of Cancer and Taurus are very compatible ensuring that change you wish to enact in your life will go relatively smoothly!  Complicated but positive aspect.

Wishing you a week of magic and peace,
