May 2021 begins with the accent on the major topic of the year – the confrontation of old and new. Saturn and Uranus square highlighted by luminaries might once again remind about spheres that need reformation and spheres that need preservation. The question of freedom and limits might rise again. The challenge of this aspect is to remember, that even though there might be a strong urge for change, modernization and ultimate freedom, there are certain structures that are more useful in their current unmodernised shape, and certain limits that hold the world.
The first week of May might bring the exaltation of emotions yet not enough energy to act. The mind field might be taken by unrealistic, extremely broad ideas, ambitious quixotic plans, detachment from reality and excessive pathos. By the end of the first decade of the month, with Mercury and, in turn, Venus ingression into Gemini, all this enthusiasm will start to wane, leaving space for the development of some practical solutions, especially in the financial sphere. This might be arduous because financial and material appetites might not be up to the budget, but with a factual and pragmatic approach results can be successful.
The second decade of May opens up space and broadens the horizons. On the 14th Jupiter enters Pisces, bringing relaxation into the realm of ambitions and aims. The general mood will be significantly elevated and filled with optimism. Yet this sentimental and spiritual vibe might easily lead to losing concentration and falling into illusions. Some misconceptions might also be due, and provoke disruption in the informational field. On the everyday level, there will be a high chance of confusion, dishonesty and fraud. Or simply unwillingness to acknowledge the reality.
The third decade of May is full of communications, movement, and social activity. But it is best applied to superficial spheres as any serious matters will be slowing down doomed by delays and blocks. It is likely that certain limitations will come into question especially in the area of movement and travels.
Full Moon on the 26 is a total Lunar Eclipse in Sagittarius, which will raise the general level of emotions and sensitivity in combination with muddled thoughts and feelings. The general message of this Eclipse will accentuate topics of authority, beliefs, fundamental values, ambitions and aims. However, it is wise to remember that on a personal level eclipse plays out only if it touches significant points of one’s chart.
Despite that, by the end of May, we are likely to find a balance between intuitive reactions, the desire to break free and the reasonable limitations of mundane life. And even though there is a chance of irritable moments at the very end of the month the level of adaptability will be high enough to handle those easily.
