May Highlights
Hard work and discipline may have flown out the window for the past few months while Saturn was retrograding. Well, playtime is over and you must now redirect your energies towards whatever it is Saturn is trying to teach you as this planet moves direct the first couple of days of May. Venus is trying to take the sting out of the stationary time frame, which is always the most difficult time of a retrogradation. Keep this in mind since we have three other planets doing the backwards dance before the month is out.

Finances and long term commitments are on the agenda the first couple of days of the month. You can work out any issues, especially those regarding power and the general hierarchy.

Around the 9th, Jupiter will go retrograde. Jupiter rules the judicial system and those in authority, as well as teachers of higher learning. Retrogrades allow us to go back over situations and rethink, review and redo a few things that maybe weren’t as well as they could have been when they were implemented initially. Any planet going retro does not function as well as it does when it is clipping along at its normal forward pace. The only caveat to this is if you happen to have the planet which is retro in the heavens also retro in your natal chart. You actually will do better in the areas ruled by the retrograde planet during a retro phase because the planets energy is more in tune with your natal chart energy.

While Jupiter is retro, expansions are not favored, plans for adventures may not go off as well as you might have hoped, people in positions of authority that have overstepped their boundaries or used their influence wrongly, will fall from grace.

The upside is that the sun will trine Jupiter on the 12th, lending its stabilizing rays in one of the most favorable transits out there. This is a good day to meet with influential types. Women often find husbands or marry under this auspice and everyone is more apt to be gracious.

On the 21st there is another configuration which can potentially lighten up the Jupiter retrograde; Jupiter will run into Uranus by sextile once again. This transit has been in effect pretty much all of 2008, in an ebbing and flowing pattern due again to retrogradation. As a side note, Uranus rules the airline industry and flying in general. Three airlines have gone belly up during this transit and American grounded thousands of flights for inspections (Jupiter rules inspectors). And while it may not sound like this is a good transit for the airlines, it is; because they are doing the right thing and getting their fleets in better working condition so we can all be safer as we fly the friendly skies. Uranus also rules earthquakes, or perhaps is a co-ruler of them, and it seems like we have had a lot [Jupiter rules “a lot”] of those lately too.

On the 26th (Memorial Day for the US), Neptune AND Mercury will go retrograde. Talk about some confusion and fuzzy thinking. Hopefully you won’t have to take a major test on that day because your memory isn’t likely to be functioning at its best. Mercury rules communications, electronics and transportation; and a normal Mercury retro throws all of these things into a bit of chaos; travel delays, communications snafus, getting lost, etc. Throw the planet of vaguery and deception in there and just plan to miss your bus, get hopelessly lost or forget whatever you have to do that is imperative you don’t forget. Oh, and just for grins, Venus will square Saturn, so you will get no sympathy for any problems you do have.
