Saturn in Capricorn gives a nod to the New Moon aiding in defining goals and establishing your position. This also lends a hand in your ability to be disciplined, focus on essentials and to keep on keepin’ on.

Neptune in Pisces adds some sparkle to the hard-nosed sensibility of these influences serving to keep you inspired.

Mercury in Aries and Mars in Gemini are in Mutual Reception during the first week of May; put simply, they’re getting on well and reinforcing their energies bringing lots of mental stimulation and activity, calls, talks, news and messages.   

Mars in Gemini and Jupiter in Sagittarius face off at this New Moon bringing a culmination of efforts that began when these two met in Scorpio back in January 2018. This could involve marketing, advertising and promotional campaigns along with broadcasting, media and publishing.

It could be that your efforts to communicate are met with resistance insisting you shift perspective a bit or alter your messaging to remove reservations or hesitation. Legal issues and/or documents may also come to light now.         

It could be that a thought-provoking message is being pushed, requiring an open mind; there can be harsh words and forceful opinions where you’re faced with deeper truths and understanding. It may be that what’s being said runs counter to what you believe or to your inner knowing; ethics may come into question. Who’s right and who’s wrong? There’s lots going on in your headspace - profound thoughts, wanting to act on ideas and interests, expand your worldview or to speak your truth which some may refuse to accept, calling for resigning to do away with old fears, doubts, limitations, boundaries or restrictions once and for all, before restoring support, rebuilding trust or renewing your position.   

Saturn, Pluto and the South Node in Capricorn want to have their say too. This influence that’s been in progress, operating in the background, illustrates the breakdown, dismantling and deconstruction/reconstruction of many structures and systems in place for a long time – we’re talking lifetimes of limiting reality constructs.

Pallas in Libra and Ceres in Sagittarius nudge this New Moon posing a bit of a catch; suggesting shifting beliefs about self-worth and self-acceptance and attempting to reconcile that with what’s being reflected back to you from others by how well you get on with them, how they treat you or make you feel. 

On another level, it may bring up situations involving the law, justice or ethics or being a warrior for truth and equality.

Jupiter, Saturn and Pluto are retrograde for the next several months; pointing to the process of growth, development and a search for meaning as an inside job based on your personal truth, measuring things by your own standards and being accountable and solely responsible for your role and your own internal evolution.  

New Moon Blessings and Good Vibes to ALL!!
