Your Daily Cosmic Calendar for May 16th

There’s no rest for the weary! Ten important celestial seasonings are about to be sprinkled on all of our lives. Here’s the complete list as the Sun forms a contra-parallel with Pluto (1:35AM PDT), the Moon in Aries unites with Uranus (5:12AM PDT), Mars trines Pluto (9:27AM PDT), Venus makes a 30-degree tie to Jupiter (1:42PM PDT), Vesta makes a similar, 30-degree link to Uranus (2:29PM PDT), Jupiter forms an off-kilter, 150-degree connection to Saturn (3:43PM PDT), the Moon parallels Mars (7:39PM PDT), Mercury makes a frictional, 45-degree tie to Pallas (8:28PM PDT), Ceres contacts Neptune via an inspirational, 72-degree link (10:04PM PDT), and Mars opposes Chiron (11:57PM PDT). To some extent, the aspects are almost divided between favorable and challenging. However, Jupiter at loggerheads with Saturn must top the list and this liaison is clearly discordant – particularly on the business and professional fronts. Therefore, attempting to throw your weight around in these areas of life is foolish and illogical. Even though the Moon with Uranus speaks of potential innovation and Ceres in touch with Neptune equates with a possible rising tide of productivity, the two largest planets (Jupiter and Saturn) suggesting the need for a major readjustment is top dog right now. Of course, you can attempt to tweak each difficult alignment – when they occur – and see if you gain some kind of mileage around those time-periods. Nevertheless, the overall mood in the psychic atmosphere is a lot of stress and strain are happening, and if you can play the role of Good Samaritan or cheerleader to shut-ins and the disadvantaged, by all means do so.
