May 2013

Capricorn: Dec. 22-Jan. 21): This month as your astrology horoscope month begins Capricorn, May 1^st falls right in between the Spring Equinox and the Summer Solstice. The 2^nd and 3^rd eclipses in an eclipse cycle that began with the Full Moon eclipse April 25^th occurs, and the 3^rd of the great Uranus-Pluto squares at 11° define May as an undeniable time of change.  Capricorn and Capricorn rising face and have been facing major turning points in their lives and the eclipses of May only fuels this as Capricorn’s role changes.  Call it maturity or call it a rite of passage, your will change.

Some say Eclipses are fated events that occur in the world, or in our lives.  Or are eclipses those monstrous emotions inside of us that force us to make change, take an action, and could they be  reactions to someone else who has . Makes sense that when the Moon and the Sun come together emotions or feelings meet with the ego or that life force within us and we are the stewards of change in our own lives or the lives of others.  The Moon is the natural ruler of Capricorn and Capricorn rising’s solar 7^th house of “other people’ and you don’t have to look far to realize how other’s have influenced your life for better or worse.

In May we become more aware of contrasts, and contradictions, as the Sun, Mercury, Venus, Mars, Pallas and the Lunar South Node oppose Saturn _RX then the Lunar North Node in Scorpio.  In ancient astrology the dragon’s head and the dragons tail (the Lunar North Node and the Lunar South Node) were considered the abode of disincarnate spirits.  Today the Lunar Nodes rule past and future incarnations.  The North Node leads us into the future and the South Node pulls us back into the past.  This Taurus-Scorpio axis also deals with morality vs. immorality, puppy love vs. sexual excesses, gentleness vs. cruelty and the beauty of spring vs. the cold dampness of impending winter.  Taurus is calm, sweet, and laid back, until pushed too far; Scorpio intense and on the defensive no matter what. The sign of Scorpio rules intensity, purpose, determination, facing challenges head on, the underworld, manipulative schemes, the dark side of things, ugliness, and we are very sensitive to this dangerous undertaking of facing challenges and to this polarity in our lives. It’s easy now to want to fall back to the sweet, easy going days of yesteryear but, Saturn _RX and the Lunar North Node try to pull us forward and we can find every excuse not to go forward.  It’s the back drop to the New Moon Eclipse in Taurus and for now until the next New Moon eclipse in Scorpio in November, the easy life wins.  The Taurus-Scorpio axis id Capricorn and Capricorn rising’s solar 5^th house of children, creative output, love and dominance (or ego) and your solar 11^th house of live in lovers, roommates, ex-lovers, friends, networking, VIPs, and your sincerest hopes and biggest fears (anxiety).   There’s a letting go when children naturally grow older or we grow apart from love interests.  There’s also protectiveness to children, lovers and to the creativity that we work hard at producing (plagiarism comes to my mind).  However, with the Taurus-Scorpio axis we will ruthlessly let go of that which gets in the way of anything that has to do with these two houses.  Our feelings here are all or nothing. 

The New Moon Annular Solar Eclipse at 19°33’ Taurus on May 9^th starts a new cycle of activity perhaps of financial in nature.  The sign of Taurus rules creature comforts, money, personal wealth, belongings and possessions.  More importantly Taurus is productive in making money, figuring out how to get it, or how to achieve a desire. Taurus doesn’t like to be pushed and the wrong approach could cause people to dig in their heels and become unmovable.  You could be ultra-sensitive to being approached to wrong way and just decide to be stubborn early this month, but with Saturn staring you down, you’ll question yourself and wonder if you did the right thing.  Saturn loves to bring on the guilt trip. The New Moon Annular Solar Eclipse in Capricorn’s 5^th house of love, romance, children, dominance, and the creative drive within all of us starts a new dynamic cycle.  For some it could be love, for others children’s interests, Still others creativity and entertainment concentrations.  The 5^th house is a happy house and maybe it’s time Capricorn had a little dose of happiness. 

Looking back earlier this year the Lunar South Node was at 19°33’ Taurus on Feb. 26^th -27^th, 2013 and Mars will be at 19°33’ Taurus May 17^th.  The South Node rules the incarnation or path we’re coming out of (life of leisure, comfort, loyalty, easy life, free spending, pleasure principle… etc.)  Mars in Taurus is determined to find new means or modes to get more creature comforts, money, personal wealth, belongings and possessions. Mars may demand loyalty even when it doesn’t deserve it.  Mercury gives new ideas or points us in the right direction. The Lunar North Node in Scorpio is pointing to where we need experience and in Scorpio, hardcore anything, self-preservation, it deals with will power, sharing, credit, banking and managing joint finances.  With so many of the personal planets along with the Sun and South Node (the past), Capricorn can feel more loved, perhaps more creative and definitely more in command of their lives. 

There’s nothing that brings out your resourcefulness than having your back against the wall.  The fixed signs Taurus and Scorpio can do just that.  Both signs are unyielding and seemingly immovable and uncompromising.  As the Sun, Mercury, Venus, Mars and Pallas aspect Saturn _RX in Scorpio and you have to be just as unwavering in your longing to overcome personal trials, delays and tests.

Just as the Sun enters Gemini on May 20^th the energy and tone changes and the light shines in your 6^th house of health, work, pets and selfless service to others. Capricorn can do many things at once so here goes!

The 3^rd Uranus in Aries square Pluto _RX in Capricorn occurs on May 20^th, and this time around Uranus is direct and Pluto is retrograde.  With Pluto (elimination) in your solar 1^st house of fresh starts, and new beginnings, and Uranus (fast change) in your solar 4^th house of letting go, you’re shedding your skin, releasing the past and no doubt being more self-sufficient. 

The planet Mercury (ruler of the sign of Gemini) is the lower octave of lightning fast Uranus and is moving very quickly this month, through two signs, Taurus and Gemini. So we can expect things to move quite fast after May 20^th.  Things definitely take on speed and the home becomes the place you feel vibrant.  It’s time to re-do, remodel and take charge of your accommodations (home).  Perhaps many of you will start home-based businesses. 

The Full Moon Lunar Eclipse at 3°57’ Sagittarius May 24^th in your solar 12^th house of necessary employment (not your day job or your real calling), seclusion, karma, completions, secrets, and divine intervention. Even when Capricorn is down there’s something deep inside that keeps them going.  A deep faith and for many of you a dream proves prophetic and a spiritual experience changes your life; a completion of a legal matter or a 2^nd job.  

Mercury enters Cancer where it will spend a considerable amount of time considering Mercury will retrograde in Cancer where Jupiter will enter at the end of June.

As Mars enters Gemini your solar 6^th house of work, health, pets and organization things start moving in a new direction quickly.  Get organized now and clear your desk of left over projects you may not have lots of time to spare later in the month.

Saturn _RX is retrograde in Scorpio, and there’s no way that Saturn doesn’t generate problems in personal relationships here. Scorpio represents power, joint finances, as the 2^nd house to the 7^th house of personal relationships and marriage it is your partner’s morals, possessions, comfort, support, what they own, what’s important to him or her, what they love, and sometimes who they love.  No matter where Saturn _RX in Scorpio is transiting in your Natal Birth Chart relationship issues are influencing it somehow.
