Void-of-Course: May 4 @4:37 pm (ET) @1:37 pm (PT) to moon into Cancer later in the evening
Opportunity Period: None
What does it all mean?
Gemini is an air sign and needs lots of stimuli. She is ruled by Mercury.
The house connected to Gemini is the 3rd house of: day-to-day travel/affairs and siblings… we could find ourselves busy with multiple things going on, even if they are just in our own minds… ;) Dealings with family, especially siblings, are likely.
We may find we are trying to do multiple things at once, which may not go exactly as planned. If you do find you have tons of ideas spinning around in your head, take pen to paper and jot them down… it will ease the “inside chatter” and you may find some of them useful later on.
Some of us may have to make a concerted effort to listen instead of chat.
Caution is advised when doing up letters, emails and relaying messages, as much as we may think we have it right, it’s better to check one more time
It’s a good time to get those lists and notes made up…
Boredom may be at our door step and we may feel more restless than usual.
The next few days may be positive for: buying a vehicle, entertaining guests, hair cut (for less growth), join a club, send mail, and mow the lawn to retard growth.
This moon sign will have more of an effect on those who have the following in their charts.
Sun in Gemini
Moon in Gemini
Mercury in Gemini
Ascendant in Gemini
Midheaven in Gemini
Any aspects to the Sun, Moon, Mercury
Those who have a strong Sagittarius influence in their chart
NOTES:
Mercury, the planet that rules Gemini,♊ moves into “storm” on Tuesday, May 2nd. He slows down before going retrograde on May 10th. Gemini’s may be feeling a little muddled in thought, or may find that they aren’t as quick on the “uptake” as usual. Mercury Retrograde will have an effect on us all, however, those with strong Gemini and or Sagittarius chart influences may find the effects stronger. Mercury, rules, transportation, technology and communications…Sometimes referred to as the Messenger.
Venus moves into the sign of Aries♈ on Tuesday May 2nd @ 12:10 pm (ET) @ 9:10 am (PT). Aries is in determent in Venus, Venus rules Libra,♎ and Taurus♉ . Being in determent means that Aries isn’t as strong as he usually is, however, he is always brave and ready to take on what he needs to. This meeting indicates a social time, where meeting new people is easy to do… Take care not to over do things, we want to keep on dancing, to keep on laughing and hanging out, but sleep and diet are what’s going to help us enjoy these social activities… 😊And because Venus is LOVE, new romance 💖 is also possible. Take care in this area also, the energy rush is real, but will it last… ?
This connection will effect Folks who have strong Venus (Libra/Taurus) chart influences, and those who have strong Aries (Mars) chart influences, more than the rest of us. Venus rules Love and Money, she is connected to Libra, (relationships) and Taurus (material and financial security). Aries is ruled by Mars, he is the “warrior” and action orientated.
***As Mercury has just entered into storm, some of us could run into challenges regarding communicating. It’s handy to think before we speak for the next little while. Emails, texts, tweets etc should also be checked before hitting the send button… 😎***
In astrology, the moon is connected to our emotions and reactions… how we are feeling on a given day may well be influenced by the sign that is visiting the moon… Each sign stays with the moon for up to 2.5 days…. :)
The Moon Void-of-Course:
There are times throughout the month when the moon isn’t fully immersed in any sign… this is when we say the moon is Void of Course… and when this occurs, we may feel “foggy” and “unfocused” … We may not be sure how we are truly feeling about a situation or a person…. Therefore it is not recommended that we make long-term commitments or important decision’s while the moon is Void of Course…. However there are 4 signs in the zodiac which may prove positive during the Void-of-Course moon…
Good for Void-Of-Course Moon: These v/c signs may prove to be quite productive times.
Cancer
Taurus
Sagittarius
Pisces…
Opportunity Periods
There are other periods throughout the month that are known as opportunity periods, when it can prove to be a positive time for most people, however if you have challenging aspects happening within your own chart you may not be able to make use of opportunity periods.

Opportunity Period: May 1st @8:04pm (ET) @5:04pm (PT) to void of course moon on the 2nd. “The path is clear during this great OP suitable for anything, from the arts to romance. ” PB.
What does this mean?
Taurus needs emotional and material security, so we may find we are more interested in our financial affairs.
This may prove to be a good time to make investments for the future or to begin plans for the next financially responsible phase.
Taurus has lots of patience, indicating this could be a good time to deal with people/projects/situations that take up more time than is liked.
This could be a tricky position for some of us… please keep in mind that our partners (personal and business) are not our possessions… we must remind ourselves to give them their “personal space” just as they allow us ours… :)
For some of us, this influence may guide or push us to make some serious, long-lasting changes where our residential situations are concerned… Where we live and who we allow to share that very personal space with us is important…
Take care when making choices regarding, residential moves and financial investments… our emotions are tied up in our investments…
While the moon in Taurus will affect all of us, those with the following may feel the effects a little more. Those who have strong Scorpio in their charts will experience a lessor effect.
Sun in Taurus,
Venus in Taurus
Moon in Libra
Any aspects to the Moon, Venus.
Ascendant or Mid-heaven in Taurus
Moon in the 2nd house

The New Moon happens on April 30th @ 4:28 pm(ET) @ 1:28 pm(PT)
During the new moon, it is said to be the perfect time to begin new projects, romances, jobs, new homes, look for a home etc…
With a New Moon in Taurus, matters of finance and material/emotional security will be on the agenda.
A New Moon meditation, or list burning, can help us to feel more connected to the moon, our emotions and our needs, we can, if we try hard, find some direction for the future during the new moon.
“List Burning” Write up a list of all the new things, people, situations, finances, job offers, domestic solutions etc, that you would like to bring into your life during this new moon month and then as close to the New Moon time as you can make it, burn that list asking the “Universe” to please take note of your needs and concerns.
Sometimes, actually starting something new isn’t possible, however, making plans, putting pen to paper can have a positive effect and help the final outcome, when physical change is possible.
A Partial Solar Eclipse happens on April 30th at 4:45 pm, and will be visible in South America until Sundown.
Beltane and May Day Occur on May 1st: Time to get the May Pole Out. Padstow in the United Kingdom enjoys fabulous celebrations of this day.

What does it all mean?
Aquarius is “different”, he is ahead of his time and capable of thinking and “seeing” things in a different way then the rest of us.
Aquarius is ruled by Uranus, the planet of shock and chaos. His original ruler was Saturn, until Uranus was discovered.
We may feel may inclined towards kindness, especially on a “global” level or towards animals, the elderly and those worse off than us.
The time may be right to understand/learn about new technology, such as a new phone, tablet or t.v. coding or crypto.
We may be feeling more rebellious than usual, prompting us to try new things and/or meet new people.
Be careful not to break tradition just because one feels like being different. Teenagers may feel the need to express themselves, so parents be for-warned.
Personal freedom and individuality is very important now. Partner’s try not to restrict each other’s movements. Parent’s, it might be a tight line you walk now. Employer’s give your “worker’s” a little “slack”.
Being organized might not go as planned, so expect weird schedule’s and interrupted meetings…
Changes may be in the air…if you are o.k. with change, or you absolutely have to make changes, now could be an excellent time to go ahead with your plans.
Maybe a goodtime for inventions.
When the moon is in Aquarius she will have more of an effect on those who have the following in their charts. along with those with strong Leo or Cancer placements in their charts.
The next few days may be positive for the following: Joining a club, borrowing money, fixing cars, hair care (colors and chemical treatments), moving, painting, pouring cement, starting a new job or new construction.

What does it all mean?
Capricorn is business, duty and discipline. She is ruled by Saturn, the planet of restrictions.
We may be more in tune with our work/career or vocational direction.
Change may be more challenging to deal with, and we may be resistant towards it…
Being disciplined towards our “duties/chores” may be easier to achieve.
Dealings with the elderly may be in focus.
Dealings with “authority” types, such as teachers, principles, supervisor’s may be in focus. Being respectful of such positions may help to alleviate tension.
This could be a good time to get mundane business tasks out-of-the-way
If you have been waiting to get a “chaotic” situation under control, now may be a good time to do it.
Rules and regulations may be in focus, and depending on how you deal with these, it could be a favorable time or a stressful one.
Good time to watch, listen and learn
We may find we are looking at our “worth” now, including the salary we get paid.
We are happy to work for our “keep”, knowing we are doing a good job.
This moon sign will have more of an effect on those who have the following in their charts. And those who have a strong Gemini or Cancer placing in their charts.

Sagittarius is the most “easy-going” of the fire signs and is ruled by Jupiter “the lucky planet”

Because Sagittarius is ruled by Jupiter “the lucky planet” we may be feeling luckier then usual… Just take care not to go over the budget… :)
We could have more energy for fun things such as music, sports and shows
It’s easier to try something new and exciting just take care not to get carried away.
Could be a good time to take a few days for rest, relaxation and laughter
Good time for day dreaming and making fantastic plans for the future.

Notes:
The Sun moves into the sign of Taurus on Tuesday, April 19th @ 10;24 pm (ET) @ 7:24 pm (PT).
The Sun is the core of our being, he is like the cog in the middle of the wheel, he pushes us forward and shines brightly when ever he get the chance. In our natal charts, he represents the core of our being, and is one of the most important features of who we are, but he isn’t the only important feature in our charts.
Taurus, is one of the signs ruled by Venus, and we see the influence of Venus, when we notice what is important to Taurus, things like, financial and material security.
Taurus is a feminine sign, associated with the earth element, the throat, and the 2nd house on the astrological wheel.
Where we call home is important for Taurus, she needs a safe, quite and comfortable place to go home to at the end of a rough day.
She loves comfort food and good drink, she likes comfy clothes and “sensible” shoes, she can work harder than anyone you know, and be as patient as a saint, but, make no mistake, she will “run at you” with all her might when she figures out you aren’t who you said you were, or if you have been using her for your own ends without any heed to her needs and sensitivities.
Taurus, like the bull that represents her, can seem to be slow in movement and mental acumen, she just doesn’t always catch on as fast as everyone else might, but that doesn’t mean she isn’t one smart cookie, she will figure it all out sooner or later, and she will remember her lessons.
Our Taurus signs will be stead fast and true, reliable and hard working, just remember, they aren’t to be taken for granted, ever.
Many Happy Returns of the day, to all you Taurus babies…May your New Year be filled with goodness, light and love and may your dreams come true…
Taurus runs from April 19th to May 22nd.
