Wednesday, MAY 12

Mercury forms a trine to Saturn, helping us to see the practical side of things today. This transit supports work with details, realistic thinking, and step-by-step approaches to learning and communicating. It helps ground and center our thinking. Conversations may be spare but to the point or instructive. This is a good time for assisting others in understanding our perspective and a step-by-step approach to tasks and problems. We are cautious with our expectations, or at least we remind ourselves to be so.

Later today, the Sun and Neptune head toward a sextile, and we’re seeking inspiration. We have better access to our imagination and intuition. What feels like serendipity experienced now may have to do with a good sense of timing and a feeling of being in sync with the universe. We are generous and charitable with our time and energy. We can see people and situations from a perspective that embraces and finds beauty in our differences. Philanthropic acts can be rewarding. This is also a good time for self-improvement programs or efforts. The Moon continues its transit of persevering Taurus until 8:44 AM EDT, after which the Moon is in intelligent, friendly Gemini.

The void Moon occurs from 8:24 AM EDT, with the Moon’s last aspect before changing signs (a square to Jupiter), until the Moon enters Gemini at 8:44 AM EDT.
