Celestial Forecast for May 9-15         
Green Zodiac  
by Benjamin Bernstein

Whatever your sun sign, this forecast will help you choose how to best use the current astrological energies! Events are most powerful on the dates listed. However, their influence will be active for at least several days before and after. All dates and times are in the U.S. eastern time zone.

While everyone is affected by these global transits, you will be most powerfully impacted when moving planets activate natal planets and other sensitive points in your birth chart.

VOID-OF-COURSE MOONS. It's best to avoid starting important new projects or making major purchases during these times. "Business as usual" is the best strategy for these periods, which occur when the Moon has made its last major Ptolemaic aspect but has not yet moved into the next sign. Learn more here.

 

5/9, 2:53 am - 5:37 am (Leo)

5/11, 3:04 am - 10:00 am (Virgo)

5/12, 10:52 pm - 5/13, 11:58 am (Libra)

5/15, 12:02 pm - 12:33 pm (Scorpio)
 

5/9 (Mon). Clear, direct communication within your important relationships is supported with Mercury conjunct Venus. This is happening in the volatile sign of Aries, so whatever the other person does, strive to keep your end of the conversation civil and respectful.

5/11 (Wed). This has the potential to be an unusually lucky day, since the two classic benefics - Venus and Jupiter - are conjunct! If exact timing is important,10:42 AM is the magic moment when they come together. Actions initiated around this time, especially those that relate to relationships, money, creativity and communication, can benefit from this auspicious energy. (I list communication because this is actually a triple conjunction, which also includes Mercury!)

        Mars enters Taurus today, where it will remain thru 6/20. This lays down a productive background energy of energized persistence. Mars in Taurus is also great for relaxed, sensual loveplay which honors the entire body as an erogenous zone.

5/12 (Thu). With Taurean Mars sextile Neptune, it's a great time to take persistent action on your dreams and visions. This energy is also ideal for integrating subtle spiritual energy into your everyday physical activities.

5/15 (Sun). Matters relating to finance, creativity and relationships may benefit from a steady, deliberate approach today through 6/9 while Venus transits Taurus.
        Mercury also enters Taurus today, where it will remain thru 6/3, encouraging a steady, methodical, down-to-earth approach to learning and communication. 
        This makes four personal planets - Mercury, Venus, Mars and the Sun - in Taurus thru 5/20. What an amazing time to focus on the Taurean qualities of sensuality, persistence, immersion in nature, enjoyment of fine cuisine, and being instead of doing!
