Magic or mayhem, really? With all the craziness in the world happening??
May’s outcome largely depends upon how one plays the month. Strong, long-term astrological influences appear involving dwarf planets. The Kuiper Belt bodies (and centaurs, too) provide antidotes for maladies that appeared on life’s menu more recently and totally unexpectedly. With clear application of these tiny (relatively speaking) objects through their more lengthy transit intervals. Kuiper fixes require looking down the road a piece to ensure myopia reduction and soulful application. These are not mechanical “do this and the transit is satisfied” procedures. Ones greatest objectives in life benefit from being fully represented by the spirit and the person revealing they are in for as long as it takes.
While a subtle influence and more difficult to isolate, changes in how one gears up to fulfill the greatest of life objectives slowly unfolds as Uranus in Taurus and the Piscean North Node linger in sextile. This does not indicate major life-shattering changes must occur. Instead, focus on the slightest realignment toward your best perceived destination of all life activities. Focus can be a subtle thing and a tiny calibration of consciousness. This aspect presets a potential galactic grok of some magnitude developing as the Sun and Uranus convene in Taurus on 18 May. Figure an “ah-ha” realization or two shaking loose that contribute to a laser-like focus on all things that contribute to current circumstances. Assess that tangled ball of twine carefully and slowly pull on strands that stick out before yanking the twine in a final effort to sort it out. And figure the realization leads to action that is valued in the real world and grounded.
Even before the above, Ceres moves to conjoin Saturn in Pisces on 13 May. Both prepare to shift signs and convene with Neptune. In the short term only Ceres completes the task of conjoining Neptune (21 May) in Aries. The Ceres-Saturn mix supports all aspects of creative development and on the personal level, shedding the shield of being undone by others by claiming responsibility for the conditions of life. Ceres intends to be vocal about all good things she believes manifested with her recent jaunt with Saturn during her jam with Neptune in Aries. Pour it on thick with all of the good things you’ve recently accomplished!
While all this Neptunian stimulation occurs, no doubt the sextile to Sedna in Gemini from Neptune in Aries, adds hugely to the mix. Both are oceanic ruling deity - Neptune the seas and oceans in general; Sedna the mammals of the seas, including seals, walruses and those deep diving whales. This sextile remains in play for quite some time... and starts about now. A few basics for this transit. Recall that Neptune is all about perception and in Aries all about how you perceive yourself. Sedna represents the need to recognize that life’s circumstances hinge upon decisions and choices made in the past. Given the Gemini tenure of Sedna, if the conditions at hand do not meet idealized expectations, then flip the coin of life and replay the hand. Be second chance oriented and apply the best of what experience and knowledge has been realized in the immediate past. Time to get on with whatever rectification you deem essential. Take care of the physical self first. When secure, take on the soulful needs.
Finally, on 26 May the first Chiron to Eris conjunction in Aries manifests. For all intents and purposes, these conjunctions persist through December 2026, when Chiron retrogrades back toward Eris, halting two degrees short of conjunction. Starting now and through the next year and a half, these two shape self perception, self awareness and self confidence in extraordinary ways. Of course, Chiron addresses all life’s “not enough” wounds a person may harbor. And Chiron addresses only with the introduction of antidotes intended to get a person feeling healthy once again. Eris flaunts any attitude or awareness of being shunned, left out, passed over, ignored, rejected, dejected and objected.
A bit of backstory here. Eris’ discovery and naming was announced when it was largely due to what was perceived as a theft of data online by an astronomical group seeking notoriety. Also, Eris rules the sense of inclusion one may feel when soliciting a friend, connection or follower on any social media platform. Being “unfriended” or worse, blocked stings. It seems that social media outreach attempts to heal perceived disenfranchisement by believing that online pixels contribute to the density of ones aura. It does not work that way.
So, here’s the Chiron-Eris bottom line. Locate all wounds within any level of consciousness. Do your dangest to apply the best healing remedies. When done, stop repeating your backstory. When interacting with others, do not lead with any malady, condition, gender preference or sexuality consideration. While some may cozy up to those declarations, many others will not. The Eris component is about widespread fitting in with others. The Chironic question becomes do you respond better to compliments and accolades or judgments and criticisms? Whatever you conclude indicates a condition of self-awareness and perception of personal wholeness. If you conclude that you stand prone to negative feedback crowding into your consciousness more easily than praise, cull the naysayers from your social media before your next healing step.
It is reasonable to assume that social media is fixing to shift a heap under this transit. Many have abandoned the X platform for the allegedly friendlier BluSky. The fate of TikTok is unknown, however, the powers that be seem to be intent upon its preservation. Social media stakes it Chiron-based claim for aiding, abetting or aggravating those seeking Eris inspired inclusion.
Here are the questions for culling from social media:
Does this connection/follower offer you anything of merit?
Does this connection/follower consume your time without reward?
Is this connection/follower real and verifiable?
Does the interaction you are pursuing fill your sails or attempt to steal the essence of your soul?
Is there an activity in life that could be pursued and offer more satisfaction with the time required by the demands of your social media presence?
Is this other activity fulfilling your life mission and causing confidence to exude from every pore of your being?
What do you need to heal?
Where do you most crave recognition and acknowledgment?
This is quite a month fraught with strong and subtle influences. Do as you May to make the most of all the circumstances that appearing, and realize that each offers a key to personal healing!
More soon.
