May 21 Moon Goddess’ Current Phase

Today the Moon will be in a Waning Crescent phase. In this phase the Moon’s illumination is growing smaller each day until the New Moon. During this phase the Moon is getting closer to the Sun as viewed from Earth and the night side of the Moon is facing the Earth with only a small edge of the Moon being illuminated. This phase is best viewed an hour or 2 before the sunrise and can be quite beautiful if you’re willing to get up early. It can also be a great time to see the features of the Moon’s surface. Along the edge where the illuminated portion meets the dark side, the craters and mountains cast long shadows making them easier to observe with a telescope or binoculars.

Daily Horoscope Thursday, May 21, 2020

Moon Alert

There are no restrictions to shopping or important decisions. The Moon is in Taurus.

Aries (March 21-April 19)

The next four weeks will be fast-paced and stimulating! Suddenly, you’ve got places to go, things to do and people to see! It’s a lovely window of time to enjoy the company of neighbours, siblings and relatives; plus write, sell, market, teach and act. Wow!

Taurus (April 20-May 20)

For the next four weeks, you will have a strong focus on money, cash flow and your assets. Fortunately, you will also attract money to you. In addition to which, you will have clever, moneymaking ideas! (Let us not forget that you are the financial wizard of the zodiac!)

Gemini (May 21-June 20)

Oh my! For the next four weeks, the Sun will be in your sign giving you a chance to recharge your batteries for the rest of year! (“Yay me!”) This influence (which happens only once a year) also attracts people and favourable circumstances to you.

Cancer (June 21-July 22)

Because your birthday is a month away, this means your personal year is coming to an end. As such, be wise and use the next four weeks to contemplate what you want for your new year ahead (birthday to birthday). Ideas?

Leo (July 23-Aug. 22)

You will be more popular in the next four weeks, without question. Your interaction with friends and groups will increase, especially with younger people as well as creative, artistic types. This is an excellent window of time to make future goals.

Virgo (Aug. 23-Sept. 22)

Bosses, parents and important people will admire you in the next four weeks, which means you can use this time to advance your agenda or make your pitch. (Perfect if you’re looking for a job.) However, be patient with partners and close friends while Mars is opposite your sign.

Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 22)

You will dearly love a change of scenery if you can swing this in the next four weeks, which is why you have a desire to travel and explore your surroundings. This same desire can be satisfied by learning new things. Nevertheless, you have lots of energy to work hard right now.

Scorpio (Oct. 23-Nov. 21)

You will feel more intense about many things in the next four weeks, especially issues related to shared property, taxes, debt and insurance matters. You want to get things straight. Fortunately, financial negotiations will favour you. Keep your pockets open!

Sagittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 21)

You will need more sleep in the next four weeks because the Sun is now (symbolically) as far away from your sign as it can get all year — and the Sun represents energy. Respect your need for more rest. Be patient with insane activity taking place at home.

Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19)

You will use the next four weeks wisely because this is your chance to get better organized in every aspect of your life. You won’t mind working hard because you will be delighted with the results. (This appeals to the perfectionist in you.)

Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 18)

Lucky you! The next four weeks promise social outings, playful activities with kids, opportunities to express your creativity and a boost in romantic attractions. All the fun stuff! In fact, relations with everyone will be more lighthearted and pleasurable.

Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20)

Your focus on home, family and your private life will be much stronger in the next four weeks. Many of you will be involved with a parent more than usual. Others will tackle home repairs and all of you will want to tweak your digs because you will look for ways to make where you live look more attractive.

If Your Birthday Is Today

Actress Fairuza Balk (1974) shares your birthday today. You are intense and passionate about seeking knowledge. Sometimes you are impatient. It’s your turn for a fun-loving year ahead! You will be more popular and will enjoy warm friendships. You will also be more grateful for your life and will appreciate the everyday happiness and beauty around you. This year is the time for an important choice. Choose wisely.

Daily Horoscope Wednesday, May 20, 2020

Moon Alert

There are no restrictions to shopping or important decisions. The Moon is in Taurus.

Aries (March 21-April 19)

It’s wise to be positive and give others the benefit of the doubt. However, you don’t want to blind yourself to the stupidity or ignorance of someone. You might have to struggle to stay realistic today when dealing with others.

Taurus (April 20-May 20)

You love beautiful things of good quality. Wood, gold, silver, pewter, crystal – the real deal. Today you might talk yourself into spending too much money for something beautiful; or you might regret not getting something that you wanted. (These are just dreams.)

Gemini (May 21-June 20)

You might be disappointed with a parent, boss or someone in a position of authority. You expected more. Perhaps you wanted sympathy or support? Think about how things look from their point of view. Could be a misunderstanding.

Cancer (June 21-July 22)

Your idealism is aroused today; however, this kind of idealism is a bit fuzzy and pie-in-the-sky. (As idealism sometimes it is.) Be careful what you choose to identify with because ultimately, you might be disappointed. What appears to be strong might be hollow.

Leo (July 23-Aug. 22)

You might be disappointed in a friend today. (Leos like to have high regard for their friends, and sometimes if they are too disappointed – they end the friendship.) This could be the case today. Perhaps you have to ask yourself if your expectations were realistic?

Virgo (Aug. 23-Sept. 22)

It’s easy to blur the lines of admiration and awe when looking at someone in a position of authority or perhaps looking at a parent or boss today. You might admire someone and yet, somewhere in the back of your mind, you suspect something is off. It’s not right. (Listen to that still, small voice.)

Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 22)

Make sure you have all the facts before you jump on the bandwagon today regarding politics, religion or racial issues. Lately, everyone wants to be on a bandwagon because life is confusing! It’s as if people need something to hang on to. Be smart and look before you grab on!

Scorpio (Oct. 23-Nov. 21)

Make no assumptions that are financial today, especially concerning taxes, debt and shared property. (Ditto for banking and insurance.) Do not fall prey to wishful thinking. Get your facts straight and deal with what is and not what you wish it would be.

Sagittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 21)

You might be confused dealing with a partner or close friend today. If so, this confusion could lead to disappointment. Maybe you are off-base? Maybe you don’t see the whole picture? Maybe you can’t appreciate what it’s like to walk a mile in someone else’s wedgies?

Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19)

Be sure that you are realistic in your expectations of others at work today. On one hand, you don’t want to be a sucker for a sob story; but on the other hand, you need to appreciate that someone else might be undergoing big challenges. (We’re all in the same storm together – but not in the same boat.)

Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 18)

Today you are in touch with your romantic imagination, which is why you want soft lights, romantic reveries and daydreams of Hollywood love. This is certainly entertaining and a lovely escape, but your wishes might not jibe with reality. Aye, there’s the rub.

Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20)

We can all kid ourselves, but you have taken this exercise to an art form. Because you are imaginative and sensitive, you are the true escape artist when it comes to avoiding the nasties. Make sure you know exactly what’s going on at home. Don’t assume that you know.

If Your Birthday Is Today

Actor Tahmoh Pennikett (1975) shares your birthday today. You love to travel and explore new places. You are intelligent with common sense. This year will be a more relaxed for you. Do your best to cooperate with others because your interactions with others will be important. Always look for ways to be kind and helpful. If you are open when engaging with others, your business and personal relationships will benefit you.

Daily Horoscope Tuesday, May 19, 2020

Moon Alert

Avoid shopping or important decisions from 4:30 PM to 10:30 PM EDT today (1:30 PM to 7:30 PM PDT). After that, the Moon moves from Aries into Taurus.

Aries (March 21-April 19)

You are quick, impulsive, creative and let’s face it, sometimes you have a short fuse. Therefore, resist the urge to be in conflict with a parent or boss today because this might happen. You don’t need this. They don’t need this. Nobody needs this. You get the picture.

Taurus (April 20-May 20)

Something going on behind the scenes is unsettling for you today, which is why you might find yourself at odds with someone from another culture. Or you might want to argue with someone about politics, religion or racial issues.

Gemini (May 21-June 20)

Without even meaning to, you might find yourself in a situation where you have to defend yourself with a friend or a member of a group. But do you really have to do this? Don’t take the bait. Avoid this conflict. You don’t need to defend yourself. Relax.

Cancer (June 21-July 22)

This is a classic day to be in conflict with someone in authority – a parent, boss, police person, you name it. Be aware of the fact that if you do this, your confrontation will be noticed by others because you are high viz. today. Think before you act or speak.

Leo (July 23-Aug. 22)

Today it’s easy to be caught up in a little drama about philosophical concepts or something to do with politics and religion. People are very entrenched in their own views. It’s hard to change their minds because there are none so deaf as those who are wearing headphones.

Virgo (Aug. 23-Sept. 22)

Disputes about shared property, inheritances, insurance issues, or the cost of a social event or the cost of educating and taking care of kids – these are just some likely topics – will likely arise today. Steer clear of these disagreements because they will be power struggles.

Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 22)

The ironic thing about your sign is you are an excellent debater and yet, you want harmony in your surroundings. Don’t take the bait today. In other words, resist the urge to end up in a power struggle with a partner or close friend. Does it really matter who is right? Relax.

Scorpio (Oct. 23-Nov. 21)

Avoid nasty debates with coworkers, customers and supervisors today because they could materialize and then someone might say something they will regret. Hey, you have to work with these people or see these customers again. Keep your shirt on.

Sagittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 21)

Parents must be patient with kids today to avoid hissy fits and meltdowns. Likewise, romantic partners might suddenly argue because they need to prove a point. Basically, today is ripe for ego battles and power struggles. You don’t need this.

Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19)

Do what you can to keep the peace at home today, especially with mom or with female family members. People’s egos can be so tender. Don’t hurt anyone’s feelings; and hopefully, someone will not hurt yours. Don’t make a big deal about anything today – be accepting.

Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 18)

Today you are too keen to make your point. If someone is in error, you will correct them. If you think someone doesn’t grasp something – you want to educate them. This is actually a poor day to do this because people are touchy. Let it go.

Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20)

Money disputes are classic today. You might be upset about salary issues, cash flow, or perhaps about something you own? Whatever the case, arguments today will only make people feel resentful. These discussions will become power struggles. It ain’t worth it.

If Your Birthday Is Today

Actor Jason Gray-Stanford (1970) shares your birthday today. You are a warm loving person with humanitarian instincts. You are confident, calm and strong. Exciting news! You’re entering a year of new beginnings! This means it’s time to identify future goals to determine what you want for yourself in the next few years. Be pro-active and physically energetic about going after what you want. Just do it!

Daily Horoscope Monday, May 18, 2020

Moon Alert

Today there are no restrictions to shop or make important decisions. The Moon is in Aries.

Aries (March 21-April 19)

This is a great way to begin your week! The Moon in your sign makes you upbeat and energized. Enjoy meeting new faces and seeing new places. You’re full of clever ideas, which is why it’s easy to impress someone. Good day to write letters and chat. Yada, yada, yada.

Taurus (April 20-May 20)

With the Sun in your sign, you are strong and empowered; nevertheless, today you want to start the week off gently. You might prefer to work alone or behind the scenes to make your plans. Looks like you have excellent moneymaking ideas!

Gemini (May 21-June 20)

You are in a positive mood today, which is why you’re keen to talk to others, especially a female acquaintance. Someone might encourage you to make future plans, which appeals to you because your ambition is aroused this week. Oh yeah!

Cancer (June 21-July 22)

People notice you today. In fact, for some reason, personal details about your private life are more public. (Very likely, this is because you are sharing them!) It looks like you’re revealing ideas and perhaps clever tips that you know – being the practical person that you are.

Leo (July 23-Aug. 22)

You begin this week with a restless feeling because you’re hungry for adventure! Enough is enough. You want to break free and travel or do something different. You also want to learn something new! (The hundred pleats in a chef’s hat represent 100 ways to cook an egg.)

Virgo (Aug. 23-Sept. 22)

This is a good day to talk to bosses and authority figures about shared property, taxes, debt, insurance issues or disputes about something that is commonly held – this might include work supplies and equipment. Ask for what you want. (You can’t win if you don’t buy a ticket.)

Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 22)

This week begins with the Moon in the sign that is 180 degrees opposite from your sign, which means you have to be accommodating and be prepared to go more than halfway when dealing with others. Hey, you’re the sign that invented diplomacy and compromise. Piece-a-cake!

Scorpio (Oct. 23-Nov. 21)

Once again, a tender reminder that you need more sleep and more rest. Nevertheless, today you’re on the go because you want to get better organized and to do so, it appears that you have to talk to a lot of people and do lots of little hands-on stuff. Get on it!

Sagittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 21)

This is a creative day for you, which means it’s a wonderfully productive day for those of you working in the entertainment field, the arts, or the hospitality industry. This is also an excellent day to teach children. Enjoy playful mind games with them.

Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19)

This is a lovely playful week for you. In particular, it favours socializing and enjoying romantic connections. Today however, you might want to cocoon at home or even study at home. Family discussions might be important. (They always are.)

Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 18)

Your mind is active today, which is why this is a fast-paced beginning to your week. Not only is your mind busy; your hunch factor is great as well. This means you will be making decisions fast and loose and thinking on your feet.

Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20)

With Mars in your sign, you have energy to burn this week! In fact, you are so pumped, look for ways to get physical exercise to siphon off a bit of this pent-up steam within you. Meanwhile, today is a good day to stay on top of money issues and shopping.

If Your Birthday Is Today

Actress, writer, producer Tina Fey (1970) shares your birthday today. You are strong and resilient. You are reliable, warm hearted and loving. You are also sensitive and caring for others. This year you’re winding up many things you began nine years ago by letting go of what is no longer relevant and moving on to something new and different. You are lightening your load to get ready for new beginnings!

Weekly Horoscope Sunday, May 17 to Saturday, May 23, 2020

All Signs

This week the Sun changes signs and moves into Gemini for four weeks. Everyone will feel this shift of focus in their chart; in fact, it will be hyped because Mercury and Venus are already in Gemini. This signifies an increase in daily activity and chatting over the fence as more people venture out from isolation. There will be increased to-ing and fro-ing, increased communication and increased travel. Will casinos open? I don’t know. But I have heard of one, out in the suburbs, that is run by an iguana called the lizard of odds.

Aries (March 21-April 19)

The everyday pace of your life is accelerating! Plus, your own interest in the world around you will start to increase more and more. You will want to schmooze with others where possible. You will want to travel or take short trips if you can. You will enjoy interactions with neighbours, siblings and relatives, especially with someone whom you have not seen for a while. This is also an excellent week to study and learn new things to satisfy your curiosity. Discussions will go well. Your honesty and forthrightness in what you say will command the respect of others. It generally always does – but hey, not always, right? (Some days the only yoga I get is pulling my foot out of my mouth.)

Taurus (April 20-May 20)

Astrology texts call Taurus the financial wizard of the zodiac. (And many of you work in financial institutions.) You know how to make money in your own backyard! Small wonder that you’re focused on money, cash flow and earnings in the next four weeks because three planets are sitting in your Money House: the Sun, Mercury and retrograde Venus. However, not only will you be thinking more about your assets and what you own, you will also be thinking about what it is that you value in life. Many people are doing some soul-searching regarding their values because of the recent crisis in the world. It’s valuable to know what is important to you, so you can make wiser decisions in the future.

Gemini (May 21-June 20)

Ta da! For the first time in almost a year, the Sun now moves into your sign where it will stay for four weeks. This is good news for you because it will boost your energy and enthusiasm for life! You will be more interested in the world around you and you will also attract people and fortunate circumstances to you. You will have a strong urge to get out and travel, in part, because you have a desire to relate to others. In fact, this combination of Venus and the Sun will definitely attract people to you. Meanwhile, Mars is sitting at the top of your chart arousing your ambition. It’s all systems go for Gemini!

Cancer (June 21-July 22)

Your birthday is a month away, which means your personal year is coming to an end. Therefore, it will behoove you (do you like behoove? Do you want to be behooved?) – it will be in your best interests to set aside some quiet time here and there in the next four weeks, to think about what you want your new year ahead to be all about. How do you want it to be different from last year? What are four things you would like to see happen? The next few weeks are excellent for research and working behind the scenes. In fact, Mars will give you the energy for creative, intellectual work. Mars will make you identify with your ideas and really believe in them. Yes!

Leo (July 23-Aug. 22)

This week marks a shift for Leos, especially if you have been in isolation. Suddenly, you’re popular! You want to seek out others and they will seek out you. You will enjoy the company of younger people as well as creative, artistic types. Some of you will become more involved in clubs, groups and classes. You have had time to think about the role that friendships play in your life and now you have a better idea of what this means to you. The next four weeks are excellent for goalsetting. You might encounter someone who has a big influence on you. Meanwhile, disputes about shared property and debts might occur. Oops, how could I forget to mention that your sex drive will be amped! Woot!

Virgo (Aug. 23-Sept. 22)

Once a year, for four weeks, the Sun sits at the top of your chart shining a spotlight down on you and this light is flattering. When this happens, people admire you, especially bosses, parents and VIPs. (You don’t have to do anything special. Chalk it up to good lighting.) This wonderful time has arrived for you, which means that the next four weeks are obviously your best time of the year to make your pitch and do whatever you can to advance your agenda because doors will open for you! Admittedly, Mars opposite your sign makes you impatient with those who are closest to you. Be nice.

Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 22)

In the next four weeks, you are drawn to intellectual ideas, the media, people from other cultures, plus, exploring opportunities in publishing, the law and medicine. (Could be a reaction after feeling pent-up.) Suddenly, you want to explore the world of ideas and possibilities! Romance with someone “different” might begin. If you don’t travel in the next four weeks, you will dream about doing so and make plans for the future. But all will not be dazzling conversations because fiery Mars will make you work to get better organized, and work hard at your job. (Pick up your shovels and let’s sing another chorus of The Volga Boatmen.)

Scorpio (Oct. 23-Nov. 21)

You are a passionate sign and this week, you enter a passionate month ahead! Your passion will express itself in many ways (and yes, certainly that); but for starters, you will reflect upon deep psychological truths about yourself. You will do a lot of self-scrutiny, which in turn, might affect someone else as well. Romance that begins now will be wild and intense! Mars makes your desire nature strong, plus, you want to be free to express yourself in any way possible. “I am!” (Get the T-shirt.) This same window of time is a good time to seek out a loan or attract money to you through your spouse or your business partner.

Sagittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 21)

For the next four weeks, the Sun is opposite your sign. (Happens only once a year.) Because the Sun represents energy, and in your chart, the Sun is now as far away from you as it can get all year, this means your energy will be flagging and you will need more sleep. However, both Mercury and retrograde Venus will also be opposite your sign. (This is the best position for relationships for Venus!) This is why it will be easy to express your affection to others and easy for others to love you. Mercury will encourage discussions with partners as well as intellectual stimulation and fascinating conversations! Oh my, lucky you!

Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19)

You might join ranks with a Libra pal because you both want to work hard in the next few weeks. In fact, at a deeper level, you want to examine the challenge of how you should best manage your life. You want to know what duties and responsibilities are a priority. Something else will occur in the next few weeks and it is this: very likely, you will have to work for the benefit of someone else. However, the placement of Venus indicates that coworkers will admire you and your relations with them will be smooth and harmonious. Furthermore, your ability to express yourself in a clear, direct manner will be strong during this time. “Ten-shun!”

Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 18)

In the next four weeks, you will insist on expressing yourself and doing your own thing. It’s not that you’re interested in bossing others – not at all. But you want the freedom to be who you are. The new placement of the Sun will make you feel lighter and more playful. You will have a greater concern with kids and be more interested in social pleasures and romantic enjoyment. This is the one time of year when you can really be yourself! Creative activities are favoured. Romance will be fun-loving. Although you will work hard to earn money, you will also spend it freely. You’ll be excited about life and realize there is no need to pretend to be what you are not.

Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20)

With Mars in your sign until July, you will be a force to contend with because Mars will make you energetic, bold and confident! It makes you more of a fighter for your own rights than usual. In addition, because your energy level is higher, there will be more activity in your world. Meanwhile, your focus on home and family will be strong, especially dealing with a parent. Many of you will use the next several weeks to redecorate and make where you live look more attractive. This is also the perfect great time to tackle home repairs.

Crafting Your Own Sacred Schedule – Part 8

How Do You Celebrate?

Now, all this exploration doesn’t mean that every day you note as important must be acknowledged with elaborate ritual. Lighting a candle on your altar, taking a few moments to meditate outside, or preparing a favorite meal of a deceased loved one all work beautifully. If you know a particular day is going to hit you hard emotionally or mentally, then remember to schedule self-care of some kind. That can be anything from taking a cleansing bath to scheduling an outing with friends to dedicating the day to doing community service.

Avoid shopping or important decisions from 3:45 AM to 10 AM EDT today (0:45 AM to 7 AM PDT). After that, the Moon moves from Pisces into Aries.

Aries (March 21-April 19)

There’s bad days and there’s good day and this is a good day! The Moon is in your sign and the Sun is dancing with moneybags Jupiter. Ask the universe for a favour because the answer just might be yes. After the Moon Alert is over, this is a strong day for financial matters.

Taurus (April 20-May 20)

This is an excellent day because the Sun is still in your sign and today it’s dancing with lucky, moneybags Jupiter. Trust your optimism and positive take on things. Look for ways to expand your world, perhaps even internationally.

Gemini (May 21-June 20)

You will still prefer to take a backseat; nevertheless, this is a feel-good day and you are happy! Interaction with a female friend might be important. Even though you are pulling strings from behind the scenes, your ambition is strong.

Virgo (Aug. 23-Sept. 22)

This is a wonderful day to explore opportunities in publishing, the media, medicine, the law or anything to do with higher education. For example, you will enjoy studying anything that expands your horizons. If you can’t physically travel, then discover the world in other ways.

Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 22)

Discussions with others might enrich your coffers today because something might attract wealth to you. You might hear news of an inheritance or money or wealth might come to your partner? (Be cooperative with others today because the Moon is opposite your sign.)

May 17 Moon Goddess’ Current Phase

Today the Moon will be in a Waning Crescent phase. In this phase the Moon’s illumination is growing smaller each day until the New Moon. During this phase the Moon is getting closer to the Sun as viewed from Earth and the night side of the Moon is facing the Earth with only a small edge of the Moon being illuminated. This phase is best viewed an hour or 2 before the sunrise and can be quite beautiful if you’re willing to get up early. It can also be a great time to see the features of the Moon’s surface. Along the edge where the illuminated portion meets the dark side, the craters and mountains cast long shadows making them easier to observe with a telescope or binoculars.
