The week seeks stability in relationships
There are several planetary shifts afoot that demand your attention to relationships. Your own need for stability will be front and centre this week.
Mars moves to Aquarius on May 4 after spending five weeks in an exalted state in Capricorn. While this hot and heavy action planet spurred action among many of us, it also turned up the heat of aggression leading to many of losing our cool, especially in the locked-down situation, causing more stress than normal. With the move of Mars to Aquarius, we get relief from some of this aggression as this energy will be channelled to taking a break and relaxing from the stresses of overthinking and overdoing. You also feel more relationship oriented, and want to spend more time with the people who you feel most comfortable with (even if online in group chats). Make new connections and reach out to those who might have fun and learning to add to your life. Choose wisely. You don’t want every type of person in your inner circle.
The week sees a full moon in Libra (Vishakha nakshatra) on May 7. It might make you want to show off how productive you have been, or all the things that you accomplished during the lockdown. Express yourself, no doubt. But not to everyone. Talk to that one trustworthy friend about any dilemma that you may be facing. If you are grappling with indecision, this full moon is a good time to set some rules with which to tackle the future course of action.
On May 9, Mercury moves to Taurus. This is a time to get real! It’s time for action. Pedal forward from all those creative ideas and dreams into a concrete plan to make them reality. The next month will give you plenty of opportunities to put tangible action ahead of wishful thinking.
