Happy May Day , Happy Beltane. Remembering Workers Rights too.
Today’s astrological highlight is the Full Moon in Scorpio at 11 degrees, so check out your Scorpio house. The sun opposing the moon is connected to Venus and Saturn( in a sextile) in a yod formation, or a narrow triangle, this formation encourages and stimulates a dynamic of change, and growth. There could also be some tension due to the Moons wide square with Pluto. However there is a relationship here as the Moon is on Plutos sign of rulership; so the Moon has called by to Plutos house, what will the Moon find there? So the Moon says I can illuminate, what is it which needs illuminating?
Take a look in our personal rear view mirror, and decide what things need to go back there, this Moon phase will support making changes and definitely releases, especially those which have been been or become a block to growth. Put in some extra work to help achieve the growth, connect to our current projects or goals for growth.
The Moon and Pluto illuminate what’s there now for dealing with . Mercury conjunction Chiron, bringing discussions, or learning which have a serious and helpful, healing vibe to them. Mercury is on the move to Ta**us on the 6th and Pluto is on the move to a retrograde.
Cards
The fool marches out and on, remember we are all just walking each other home. On our journeys today there is an opportunity to smarten up our journeys, leaving a few “things “ in our rear view mirrors.
The knight brings us steady progress, getting a higher view perspective .
The Queen reminds us of assertiveness, and redrawing or repeating 🤦♀️ boundaries. How many repeats??
Three Swords
Do
whilst there maybe some heart ache, there is an opportunity for seeing this dynamic, see above boundaries. What heart ache and where?
Eight swords
Don’t feel hemmed in. Look at the places where we feel trapped or tied, it might mean some big change and courage, might take time and make a plan take small incremental steps.
Today is also workers rights day wages conditions and protections.
Stretch that idea into our lives what rights do we want? Either macro or micro. Micro transgression are still transgressions.
Here is a gift for May from Mitchell
