NOTES

  • 1) May 5th:Cinco De Mayo: Celebrating a battle in the 1800’s between the French and Mexico. 
  • 2) May 6th: Pluto (Planet of death, destruction and regeneration) moves into retrograde motion. He will remain in retrograde motion until mid October. Pluto is an outer planet, so his influence is less intrusive, but it’s still there. He is in charge of change and what has to happen, he is connected to addictions, power and control. When he goes retrograde, he is giving us a chance to make some changes in our life for the better of our future.. A time to let go of some people, and situations that are only causing us heart ache, at the very least, they are holding us back from our best potential. This can be a good time to give up addictions/obsessions. If some one is over powering you, controlling your life, you may be able to move away from that person/situation. However, take note, if you are the one who is controlling  or using your position of power to undermine others, don’t be surprised if your ability to do so is suddenly taken away.

Aspects and how they affect our daily lives:

  • Conjunctions: Variable, they can present either positive or challenging events/situations and people depending on the signs and planets involved
  • Quincunx: Challenging, they can create frustrations regarding dealings with people, events or situations… the “actors” involved do not share any similarities. 
  • Opposition: Challenging, as the “actors” are at odds with each other, but with a little work and patience compromises can be made
  • Squares: Challenging, due to friction between the “actors” involved, however, friction can bring about needed change… while frustrating these little guys, can help us to grow. 
  • Sextile: Positive, the “actors” involved are happy to be together and more then happy to work together, good things are possible
  • Trine:Positive, good for chilling out, and relaxing, these guys are also happy to be together, but neither one may have the motivation to do anything, so it’s possible that nothing constructive will get done with these guys in play. 
  • All planetary movement, will affect those who have such active players (planets/signs) in their birth charts, the rest of us may feel the affects too, but to a lessor extent. However, those with opposite sign placements may also be affected by such movements, to lessor extent, but perhaps more then those who have no such personal chart placements.
