Monthly Astrology Forecast April-May 2021

Hello Dear readers,

The biggest planetary news you need to know this month is the turning retrograde motion of powerful Pluto in Capricorn and the shifting of generous Jupiter into the intuitive sign of Pisces which means some super planetary influence to review, revisit and reconnect are open to suggestion.

As we strive for helpful responses to these challenging times it is easy to feel despondent, fearful and lost projecting our fear and panic into the collective and empowering those outside circumstances feeling powerless and discouraged. If that is our reactions then we are caught in the turmoil of the collective insanity and we become part of this mass of chaos being pulled into the vortex of dread and anxiety. When Pluto stations retrograde and Jupiter moves into Pisces May 14 we can choose to feed the madness by being mad ourselves or we can be the change that we want to see in the world. It is only by dealing with our shadow, our fears and Ego, replacing those feelings with love and compassion and with the inner clarity that begins to rise up in our dreams, visions and meditations.

Keeping our feet on the ground whilst remaining focused, determined and with a sense of reality our changes and current transformations occurring will begin to sprout with new inner growth and future success. When Taurus arrives it’s our chance to slow down, take one step at a time, look at where we place our values and the persistence to wait for the up-coming changes. Our personal values and long term security are in focus, continue to set those realistic plans and stick to those practical goals with patience and determination. We are seeking permanence, security and reliability.

Mars entering Cancer April 23 drives us forward securing that comfortable and stable home protecting us from the outside world. A passionate Full Moon in Scorpio April 27 supplies our relationships with the emotional intensity for any rekindling and reviving that may be needed.

On April 28 Pluto begins its yearly five month retrograde in Capricorn commanding powerful changes and inner transformations. Anything that no longer serves us will now have to be released and rebuilt into something better. This is our opportunity for healing and requests that we look at the past for the process of relinquishing, refining and resurrecting. Any deeply buried pain and emotions will be revived allowing for an empowering and cleansing transit. What feelings do we need to address that we may have suppressed due to our hidden fears, those self-sabotaging behaviours and or underlying motivations? This eventful transit will assist in the elimination, purification, recovery, re-awakening and recreation of ourselves anew. Pluto will be the catalyst for an empowerment of your soul creating evolutionary inner growth and transformation.

Mercury in Gemini May 4 and Venus entering Gemini May 9 stimulates interesting conversations and plenty of variety and flirty fun. With Mercury in talkative Gemini followed briefly by Venus in Gemini we are turned on by the mind, we seek intellectual stimuli and social connections. Any commitments may be far from our thoughts as networking, communicating and entertaining conversations are highlighted. Our intimacy is shown through writing to love ones whether texting, emails, phone calls, Facebook and twitter are all Venus in Gemini means of expression. We may be looking for love with a lighter approach, no heavy chats with Gemini as interacting is for curiosity, to understand duality and for learning subjective consciousness. A great period for making new contacts, exchanging ideas, socializing, reading and writing and all forms of communication. Venus in Gemini is an Air sign, flighty, chatty always on the move, capable of doing ten things at once and hates to be bored. Venus in Gemini is fun with a capital F, bringing her witty conversations, social excitement and intellectual discussions to the table, along with her phone, laptop, iPad, and other personalities, just don’t ask her for any long term commitments as she may show you her other twin and run for her life or at least give you a mentally challenging debate about why we don’t need the stifling obligations in our lives. Venus is in Gemini until June 2 when she will move into the home-loving sign of Cancer.

A restful Taurus New Moon May 12 will present us with moments of relaxation and to treat the senses. This New Moon in Taurus will be inviting us to look at our personal and joint resources, self-esteem, innate talents and inner values. Are we sharing and valuing our talents? Do we need to set realistic goals in regards to our finances? Or do we commit to a new project, home or budget? A powerful new beginning is forming around security, finances, and values. The seeds planted now will be in full bloom within the next 6 months, we have the chance to make important changes in our lives to guarantee our future foundations are secure and prosperous.

Jupiter in Pisces May 14 brings the era of soul progression and mass awakenings, as the shifting of the largest planet in the solar system, Jupiter, changes signs into the mutable sign of Pisces. From May 14-July 28 Jupiter in soulful Pisces brings our attention to our spirit and arouses our connection with the cosmos. Jupiter’s brief visit gives us an opportunity to get in touch with our divinity, benevolence, inner awareness and empathic natures. As our universal bond is heightened we may begin to feel more sensitive to the harsh realities of the world prompting a desperate need to escape and spend time alone. Pisces feels from the heart and uses intuition and instinct to make decisions. The universal messages are strong during this insightful phase urging many souls to awaken and open their psychic gifts, their consciousness and raise to higher vibrations.
