Thursday, MAY 2

The Moon spends the day in pioneering, active Aries. Mercury forms a square to Pluto today, and then it moves into a trine to Jupiter–two very different-in-nature influences. Mercury-Pluto can produce mental anxiety or troubles, suspiciousness, and possibly a bit of paranoia. This aspect may play to our insecurities and fears that we’re not getting all the information we need. Attempts to push our ideas onto others too intensely should be avoided. We may fear not knowing. The tendency to read between the lines with a negative slant is compelling and can readily stir up trouble. Mercury’s trine to Jupiter, on the other hand, is about faith, and we’re likely to feel more and more confident as the day advances. We might gain a positive outlook through conversations, a sense of hope or faith in the future, and benefit from big-picture thinking. We are seeking out a little extra meaning to our projects and experiences. Our ideas are big and our intentions noble. We might receive good news or offers now. Curiosity is stimulated. Both influences compel us to seek out truths in different ways.
