Astrology Forecast 13 – 19 May 2024

The Moon entering Leo this morning starts the week with vitality, creativity and a desire to shine. We will feel imbued with confidence and assertiveness.

Embrace this energy today by expressing yourself authentically, leading with positivity and enjoying the spotlight in a balanced and constructive way.

Be aware, however, of the added emotional intensity that a Leo Moon opposition to Pluto in Aquarius can bring, as we are likely to experience emotions more strongly, with a tendency towards power struggles or confrontation, especially in personal or group dynamics.

Pluto represents issues of power and control. With this aspect, there may be a struggle between the assertion of personal power (Leo) and the desire for collective change or transformation (Aquarius).

Be aware of power dynamics. Approach situations at work or in your business today with awareness and mindfulness, acknowledging the potential for intense emotions and power dynamics, but also seeking constructive growth and change.

Mercury’s entry into Taurus on Wednesday will inspire us to be more logical, methodical and grounded in our thinking and actions. We will tend to focus more on tangible, realistic ideas and solutions.

Communication also becomes more deliberate and steady during Mercury in Taurus, so we may want to speak and express ourselves more slowly and deliberately, using clear and concise language. Paying more attention to details in our conversations, tasks and plans will increase productivity and accuracy in our daily activities.

However, the stubborn nature of Taurus can cause some of us to resist change and reject new ideas, preferring familiar routines and methods instead. Taurus is also known for its strong opinions and convictions, so when Mercury is in Taurus, people may be more entrenched in their beliefs and less willing to compromise or adapt their views. During the next three weeks, until June 3rd, it will be important to remain open to alternative perspectives and avoid becoming too set in our ways of thinking.

The Libra Moon over the weekend promotes socializing, relationship building, aesthetic appreciation, and a focus on creating harmony in all aspects of life. Use these energies to cultivate meaningful connections and increase your sense of balance and well-being during your weekend activities. Whether it’s catching up with friends we’ve lost track of, planning a day trip with a loved one, or calling the kids to see what they’ve been up to, connecting with our favorite people will be a theme throughout Saturday and Sunday.
