This lunation chart was drawn up at the exact moment of the Sun / Moon conjunction on May 05, 2019, it gives the “general” astral trends for the coming month mainly based on the Aspects and Signs of the zodiac.
This study must be nuanced by bringing it closer to your birth chart, and to your Transits and Progressions for Forecasts.
Think, to help you, to read my interpretation article of the New moon and Full moon in houses.
Labour energy, valued work
This New Moon can highlight more specifically the definitive return of Uranus to Taurus and thus activate more directly its duality of security / freedom…
We cannot serve 2 masters at the same time, this new moon will be able to emphasize this adage and it may be time to “change masters” now !
We can see that the karmic tension of Capricorn has shifted, the southern node has now joined the Saturn transit, the whole forming a compact cluster with Pluto as well, this is happening at the trine of the present new moon, this is the beginning of a tunnel exit that I have been talking about since the beginning of 2019, an awareness at least of the road we have traveled in recent months to get out of the rut and things are becoming clearer.
These are still energies that have a certain aridity in the long term, but it is precisely the more personal, individualistic forces that are being put forward from now on, as is also evidenced by the 2 social planets, Jupiter and Saturn, which have gone backwards since the previous lunation, which “internalizes” quite a bit the communication capacities, the needs for links to the community, but also in a way the management faculties of the collective, which can create for example various delays at this level, setbacks.
This does not mean that the mental and nervous aspect is not present, in addition to the highly valued Uranian energies, we see that Aries is always well emphasized with Mars, its ruler still in Gemini, then by the personal planets Venus and Mercury, this last planet being even at the trine of Jupiter in the 3rd decan of Sagittarius, these natives specifically can even be enormously solicited, not knowing where to give head, what to prioritize.
Venus is getting ready to form a square with the lunar nodes in a few days time, this is not to be neglected since this planet has the control of this new moon, this may create some frustrations, especially emotional, but not only that, it may take the form of different relational and social tensions, the sense of values, our priorities, our attachments, may be brought there again to a “refocusing”.
To note such a significant karmic change, since the Black Moon just invests the sign of Pisces for about 9 months, the time of a symbolic gestation, so to speak, since welcoming this energy on its Sun is never insignificant as it can raise a lot of things about individuality and vitality, bringing back unconscious elements, sometimes from the past, in order to allow their treatment, evolution, opening to new realities and the abandonment of old habits that have become useless, sometimes even through fatality, by the force of circumstances…
Try to remember around summer 2010 its previous passage in this sector to get an idea of the energies raised, also according to your occupation in the birth chart of this sign.
The full moon of May 18, 2019 will put a lot of emphasis on work, the energies of toil, Taurus is gaining a lot of strength which may require “productivity”, efficiency, a share of management and logistics, practical, pragmatic, even empirical notions, the need to test things by oneself and to evaluate them in the process, even if it may take more time to set up, these energies are known to require increased patience anyway.
