May 2018 – Change is Afoot
Numerology
May is a 7 month in a 2 year (5 + 2 + 0 + 1 + 8 = 16/7). A good month for allowing knowledge or just a knowing to come to you rather than chase it. The 7th chakra is the crown chakra, so if you can take five minutes out of your day to sit (maybe with pen and paper to hand), be still and allow the downloads to come through, you may find that the elusive solutions to the problems that have been evading you just appear and things begin to fall into place. Amethyst and clear quartz crystals may support crown chakra work.
The back and forth of the 2 year is reflected in the astrological shifts this year. Not only with the transits but also the retrogrades. Mars and Venus will both be retrograde this year (it’s usually one or the other most years). Mars is going retrograde at the end of June until August. Mercury is going retrograde at the end of July, also until August. Neptune goes retrograde in June, with Jupiter going direct in July. In August Uranus goes retrograde. September sees Saturn going direct, so back to work (literally with Saturn in Capricorn) but Chiron going retrograde. October sees Venus going retrograde until November, at which point, Mercury goes retrograde again (goes direct in December) shortly followed by Neptune going direct. Talk about being indicative of the to-ing and fro-ing of the 2 year, needing to be flexible and adjust to changes.

Astrology
The astrology this month suggests to me that May 14th – 21st may be a pivotal week for making long lasting changes. Take note of what happens for it could seem destined and instrumental in the way you shape the next seven years in some way, shape or form. You may well remember it as the week that was in many ways. As the Chiron and Uranus energy continue their journey into their new signs, we will get a taster of this combination. Chiron will retrograde back into Pisces in late September until early next year.
New Energy
Uranus will go retrograde in August but retrograde back into Aries in November until early next year. This will give us a chance to get used to this new energy (setting the stage for the next 7 to 8 years) and during the retrograde periods to discard the remnants of Chiron in Pisces and Uranus in Aries. Make the most of it because those transits in those planets will not come back round for many decades. Pisces and Aries have a common thread of solitude but in different ways. So the work here will probably done alone, either independently (Aries) or privately (Pisces).
We have an interesting combination of Uranus, Mars and Venus. Uranus into Taurus (ruled by Venus) on the 15th. Mars into Aquarius (ruled by Uranus) on the 16th. Chiron in Aries (ruled by Mars). That Mars Uranus combo can be quite sparky but hopefully will be softened somewhat by the energy of Venus, planet of love and beauty.
Wishing you a Monumental May with much love and light,
