Moon Alert
Avoid shopping and important decisions from 5 AM to 8 AM EDT today (2 AM to 5 AM PDT). After that, the Moon moves from Scorpio into Sagittarius.
Aries (March 21-April 19)
So relieved that light at the end of the tunnel wasn’t a train! Now that the Full Moon has peaked, you see solutions to financial matters, debt, taxes and perhaps something to do with your possessions. Definitely, things are looking better. Whew!
Taurus (April 20-May 20)
Last night the only Full Moon opposite your sign all year came to a peak. This means that today, you feel more encouraged, more relaxed and more hopeful about things. In fact, money from the government or the wealth of a partner might look sweet!
Gemini (May 21-June 20)
Things have been restless with this particular Full Moon. However, as of last night, the Full Moon has peaked, which means everything is starting to settle down. Nevertheless, Mercury is retrograde in your sign, and this triggers goofy mistakes and attracts people from your past back into your world.
Cancer (June 21-July 22)
Tension with friends and groups will relax now because the Full Moon peaked last night. Be open to solutions and any offer of an olive branch. Meanwhile, work-related travel might be likely today. Your job and your health feel positive and full of promise!
Leo (July 23-Aug. 22)
Issues with parents and authority within the family might have been a bit crunchy during this Full Moon. Fortunately, the Full Moon peaked last night, which means relations with kids will improve. In fact, your social calendar looks exciting!
Virgo (Aug. 23-Sept. 22)
Accidents and missteps have been par for the course for the last 48 hours. Now you can relax a bit because all that Full Moon energy peaked last night. This is a great time to invite family and friends over for good food and drink. Live it up a little!
Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 22)
Financial issues, including taxes and debt, have been troublesome. Fortunately, after the Full Moon peaked last night, these problems will diminish and possibly even disappear. (Strange as that may sound.) Today relations with others are warm and cozy.
Scorpio (Oct. 23-Nov. 21)
The Full Moon that has been in your sign for the last two days, but it peaked last night. This will be a relief! (Every Full Moon creates tension because it is in opposition of the Sun and the Moon.) Relax. Today financial matters look better. This is a strong day for business and commerce!
Sagittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 21)
Today the Moon moves into your sign to dance with lucky Jupiter! This is a pleasant influence that encourages you to be warm and friendly to everyone. It boosts your positive take on life and spurs you to be helpful to others. (With an attitude like this, you can’t lose.)
Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19)
Fortunately, tension with partners and groups that you might have experienced in the last 48 hours is now subsiding. It might even disappear. This is a good thing. This is also why today, you have a warm feeling in your tummy, especially dealing with home and family.
Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 18)
Difficulties with family issues, especially parents, will subside now that the Full Moon peaked last night. In fact, today a social outing with a friend or contact with a group or an organization will be something to look forward to. You feel popular!
Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20)
Tension in your daily communications, as well as the threat of accidents, is now greatly reduced because the Full Moon peaked last night. In fact, today you look great in the eyes of others, especially parents, bosses and VIPs. Use this to your advantage!

Milky Way over French Alp Hoodoos
Image Credit & Copyright: Benjamin Barakat
Explanation: Real castles aren’t this old. And the background galaxy is even older. Looking a bit like an alien castle, the pictured rock spires are called hoodoos and are likely millions of years old. Rare, but found around the world, hoodoos form when dense rocks slow the erosion of softer rock underneath. The pictured hoodoos survive in the French Alps and are named Demoiselles Coiffées — which translates to English as “Ladies with Hairdos“. The background galaxy is part of the central disk of our own Milky Way galaxy and contains stars that are typically billions of years old. The photogenic Cygnus sky region — rich in dusty dark clouds and red glowing nebulas — appears just above and behind the hoodoos. The featured image was taken in two stages: the foreground was captured during the evening blue hour, while the background was acquired from the same location later that night.
In Case You Missed the Lunar Eclipse on May 15 Nothern Hemisphere/16 Southern Hemisphere
What You Need to Know about the Lunar Eclipse
What is a lunar eclipse?
A lunar eclipse occurs when the Sun, Earth, and Moon align so that the Moon passes into Earth’s shadow. In a total lunar eclipse, the entire Moon falls within the darkest part of Earth’s shadow, called the umbra. When the Moon is within the umbra, it will turn a reddish hue. Lunar eclipses are sometimes called “Blood Moons” because of this phenomenon.
How can I observe the eclipse?
You don’t need any special equipment to observe a lunar eclipse, although binoculars or a telescope will enhance the view and the red color. A dark environment away from bright lights makes for the best viewing conditions.
The eastern half of the United States and all of South America will have the opportunity to see every stage of the lunar eclipse. Totality will be visible in much of Africa, western Europe, Central and South America, and most of North America.

May’s flower full moon will blossom in the sky this weekend
May’s full moon, known as the flower moon, will blossom in the sky on Sunday night into Monday.
The moon will reach its peak at 12:15 a.m. ET on Monday, May 16, so it will appear at its roundest the evening of May 15, according to The Old Farmer’s Almanac.
The flower moon is named after the flowers that blossom this time of year in the Northern Hemisphere, The Old Farmer’s Almanac said.
The lunar event is also known as the full corn planting moon because May marks the end of winter’s frost, which allows farmers to plant their seeds.
Vesak, a sacred day for Buddhists, corresponds with May’s full moon, according to the United Nations. The birth of Gautama Buddha, the moment he attained enlightenment and his death all took place on days of Vesak, according to the organization.
Stargazers will be in for a treat as the flower moon transforms into a scarlet color during the total lunar eclipse happening at the same time. A total lunar eclipse is when the sun and …

A Thought for Today
Until we meet again dear sisters, brothers, and honored guests may you blessed be.
Weekly Horoscope Sunday, May 15 to Saturday, May 21, 2022
Click here for Georgia Nicols daily horoscopes
All Signs
Whoa Nellie! This week starts with the only Full Moon in Scorpio all year. The challenge is this Full Moon triggers fast-moving change, which requires fast thinking; but meanwhile, back at the ranch, the wise choice might be to rely on our instincts rather than logic. This is because Mars is lined up with fuzzy Neptune, which makes our thinking suspect. It could be unreliable. On the upside, this promotes passion, romance and the arts – fun, glamorous choices! But the downside is a confusion between a willingness to try new things and a tendency to cling to old habits. “But we’ve always done it this way!” In most cases, the better choice will be to go with out-of-the-box thinking. Be courageous and trust your instincts. Take the red pill – it’s Tylenol.
Aries (March 21-April 19)
Financial issues come to a head this week. This could be about your earnings, debt, the bank or your partner’s wealth. Fortunately, some kind of resolution will take place, which will give you a better idea of where you stand. (Although privately, it makes your teeth itch.) This new confidence will help you to use what you own in a more productive, useful way. You might restructure how you handle money, debt or how you use something that you own. Later in the week, you’re enthusiastic and upbeat! Old contacts with people from the past are encouraging. Quite possibly, new information will help you bring an old decision back into perspective.
Taurus (April 20-May 20)
Well, you certainly feel this Full Moon because it’s the only Full Moon opposite your sign all year! The good news is that after Monday, solutions will present themselves. In particular, relations with partners and close friends will improve. Bygones will be bygones. However, expect confusion related to a friend or a group to which you belong. In fact, an element of confusion from a friend or related to a group might affect your decision about future goals. You might be unsure of these goals, or wonder if you should change them, or if they’re realistic? My advice is to trust your gut instincts about this. When head and heart agree, it’s generally a good thing. By the end of the week, moneymaking ideas and your finances look good!
Gemini (May 21-June 20)
You might feel caught off guard as this week begins because this Full Moon vibrates in a quiet part of your chart. It could bring stress to health issues or your job and your work. Fortunately, these will be resolved. Nevertheless, relations with parents, bosses and authority figures (including the police) will be confusing. You might question what others expect of you; and likewise, you might question what you think about them. You might doubt their abilities or possibly, they might have doubts about you. Either way, this is demoralizing. Because you will investigate something, including your own motivations – you can trust your instincts. By the end of the week, you’re happy and full of big ideas!
Cancer (June 21-July 22)
It will be challenging dealing with kids or friends at the beginning of the week. This challenge might also occur because of your involvement with a group. Fortunately, by mid-week, problems will be resolved. Despite the fact that travel plans or issues related to higher education, medicine and the law are confusing, and you might be unclear of your direction – nevertheless, you’ll get in touch with what motivates you. You will define goals to have a better life for yourself. This is reassuring! It’s like getting a sure compass setting. “I was lost and now I’m found!” Behind-the-scenes activities or research might boost your reputation in the eyes of others. Stay tuned!
Leo (July 23-Aug. 22)
This is a tough Full Moon because it’s a Sun/Moon opposition in Fixed Signs (Taurus and Scorpio); and you are also a Fixed Sign. This means everyone is at odds with each other! This is why you feel pulled between the demands of career and your public reputation versus the demands of home and family. You can’t keep everyone happy. Meanwhile, confusion about finances, money with the government, your partner, taxes or debt might be a challenge. If you’re not sure what to do – do nothing. Wait. (Instincts are a good thing but with finances – not so much.) Something might reinvent your reputation in the eyes of others. If so, it’s time to entertain some big goals!
Virgo (Aug. 23-Sept. 22)
Be careful Sunday/Monday because this Full Moon will create an accident-prone situation. Therefore, be mindful. Pay attention to everything you say and do. Furthermore, avoid controversial subjects when talking to others because they will escalate into nasty arguments. (You don’t need this.) In part. some of this unpredictable energy is because relations with partners and close friends are confusing. You don’t know if you’re coming or going. (Maybe literally.) Make no promises. Trust your gut instincts. Nevertheless, philosophical issues are important to you. You care. This means you will do your homework and your research. By the end of the week, you have good news for others.
Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 22)
You feel a financial squeeze play as this week begins. Fortunately, whatever problem you experience regarding flow, earnings or your relationship to other people’s resources and assets might be quickly resolved. Meanwhile, issues related to your work or your job might be confusing. You’re prepared to give something your all, but suddenly, it’s a changing landscape? This makes you uncertain about what to do. Likewise, some of you will have this same confusion about a particular health issue. Later in the week, you will make strides dealing with shared property, taxes and debt. You will also be enthusiastic about travel plans and doing something that expands your world!
Scorpio (Oct. 23-Nov. 21)
Relax and stay grounded while the only Full Moon in your sign all year is taking place. Naturally, this will stress your relationships. Fortunately, many problems will diminish and possibly disappear. (Fingers crossed.) Meanwhile, relations with kids are confusing. Things are up in the air. This same confusion will also apply o romance for some. While you have these feelings of confusion, do not act. (Although, a strong gut instinct can’t be ignored.) An intense conversation with someone powerful might resolve these issues. At the very least, they will probe them. Good news — assistance from others, or financial or practical support at the end of the week is grand.
Sagittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 21)
This Full Moon makes you uneasy because it’s taking place in a hidden part of your chart. Be reassured that the concerns it raises will diminish in importance by midweek. Admittedly, confusion related to your family or something to do with your home might make you feel paralyzed. If you’re unsure, you can’t act. What to do? Probably, the best thing to do will be nothing until you are confident. Perhaps, listen to your instincts? Sometimes they are the clue you need. One thing is certain, you can introduce improvements to your job, your health and even to something related to a pet. This will make things better. Conversations with partners and close friends will be upbeat by the end of the week!
Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19)
The Full Moon taking place now will create havoc in your relations with kids, as well as tension with romantic partners. Issues build up and intensify before a Full Moon, and then, after the Full Moon peaks, these same issues diminish and sometimes disappear. Go figure. Nevertheless, there is confusion this week about your daily schedule, your daily interactions with others, and your relations with siblings, relatives and neighbours. You might feel you are damned if you do and damned if you don’t. The paralysis of the negative. Do nothing if you’re not sure. Fortunately, you will think your way out of any of these challenges because by the end of the week, you’re laughing. Clever you.
Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 18)
This is a challenging time because Sunday/Monday is a Full Moon in Fixed Signs (Moon in Scorpio, Sun in Taurus) and you also are a Fixed Sign. Naturally, it’s impossible to please everyone, especially home and family. Just cope as best you can. Fortunately, despite confusion about money and possessions (and possibly deception) – a powerful talk with someone at home, perhaps a parent, will resolve things and get them back on track. This will lead to improvements. Perhaps things just needed to come to a head in order to provoke this solution? By the end of the week, social plans look promising. In addition, the arts and activities with kids will be upbeat and fun!
Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20)
Be careful because the Full Moon (Sunday/Monday) is an accident-prone time for you. Verbally or physically. Therefore, think before you act or say anything. Count to three. This is good advice because this week, Mars and Neptune are lined up in your sign creating a fog of confusion for you. It will make you indecisive. Therefore, don’t think you have to act when you’re not sure what to do. You don’t. Err on the side of caution. Do nothing unless you have a strong clear instinct to act. Meanwhile, a powerful discussion with someone might get to the bottom of something, which is ultimately a relief. By the end of the week, repairs and group discussions are some things that make your home life happier.

Moon Alert
There are no restrictions to shopping or important decisions today. The Full Moon in Scorpio 9:14 PM PDT tonight.
Aries (March 21-April 19)
Financial matters might come to a head today. Or perhaps it’s about something that you own? Basically, you’re challenges that you have to decide to what extent you should put your own interests first versus the duties and obligations that you have to someone else. This might be tough.
Taurus (April 20-May 20)
Whatever you do today, you might find that you are restricted or blocked by situations, or authority figures, or circumstances beyond your control. Sometimes when it rains, and you’re caught without an umbrella, you just have to get wet. Wachyagonnado?
Gemini (May 21-June 20)
Today has its challenges because it’s Full Moon Day, which means certain tensions and difficulties are increasing as the day wears on. Just take things moment by moment, and you can handle whatever happens. Even a hurricane only lasts a day.
Cancer (June 21-July 22)
The Moon is your ruler, so you do feel the energy of every Full Moon. Today’s Full Moon could create problems with friends, groups and your kids. Avoid controversial topics, especially with people who are rigid and set in their ways. (You don’t need this.)
Leo (July 23-Aug. 22)
Today will have its challenges with close friends, partners, parents, authority figures and the police. Oh yes. Therefore, tread carefully. Be ready to cooperate. Don’t waste your energy challenging others. The wisest choice is to wait for another day and then make your stand. You will be heard then.
Virgo (Aug. 23-Sept. 22)
Do be careful because this is an accident-prone day for you; therefore, pay attention to everything you say and do. Think twice before you speak or act. Don’t get your belly in a rash if you’re challenged by authority figures or things that don’t go well at work. It is what it is.
Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 22)
Financial matters might be a bit of a crunch for you today. You might have difficulty shopping. You might have difficulty earning money. You might have difficulty protecting your possessions and anything that you own. Be aware of this and do the best you can.
Scorpio (Oct. 23-Nov. 21)
Today the only Full Moon in your sign is occurring. Naturally, this will set up some tension between you and others. Therefore, be aware that patience is your best friend today. Don’t make a big deal about anything. Observe from the sidelines. Check your ego at the door.
Sagittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 21)
Communications with others will be challenged today, almost certainly. Therefore, take the high road. Avoid arguments. Resist a nasty retort. Why ruin everyone’s day? Wait until today’s Full Moon is over before you decide what to do. You’ll be glad you did.
Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19)
Parents might find that this is a challenging day dealing with their kids. Likewise, romantic partners might be at odds with each other because of the Full Moon energy. You might also have difficulty dealing with a friend or a member of a group. Be patient and tolerant.
Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 18)
Today you might feel pulled between the demands of home and family versus the demands of your career or dealing with the public. Because of this particular Full Moon, you cannot ignore home and family. Juggle this situation as best you can. (You can do this.)
Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20)
Take precautions because this is an accident-prone day for your sign – no question. Avoid arguments with others. Don’t be aggressive. Take it easy, be careful and think before you act or speak. The Sun is at odds with Saturn, in addition to which this is Full Moon Day. Tread carefully!

From Moongiant.com
The Moon’s current phase for today and tonight is a Waxing Gibbous phase. This phase is when the moon is more than 50% illuminated but not yet a Full Moon. The phase lasts about 7 days with the moon becoming more illuminated each day until the Full Moon. During a Waxing Gibbous the moon rises in the east in mid-afternoon and is high in the eastern sky at sunset. The moon is then visible through most of the night sky setting a few hours before sunrise. The word Gibbous first appeared in the 14th century and has its roots in the Latin word “gibbosus” meaning humpbacked.

2022 May 15
Colors of the Moon
Image Credit & Copyright: Marcella Giulia Pace
Explanation: What color is the Moon? It depends on the night. Outside of the Earth’s atmosphere, the dark Moon, which shines by reflected sunlight, appears a magnificently brown-tinged gray. Viewed from inside the Earth’s atmosphere, though, the moon can appear quite different. The featured image highlights a collection of apparent colors of the full moon documented by one astrophotographer over 10 years from different locations across Italy. A red or yellow colored moon usually indicates a moon seen near the horizon. There, some of the blue light has been scattered away by a long path through the Earth’s atmosphere, sometimes laden with fine dust. A blue-colored moon is more rare and can indicate a moon seen through an atmosphere carrying larger dust particles. What created the purple moon is unclear — it may be a combination of several effects. The last image captures the total lunar eclipse of 2018 July — where the moon, in Earth’s shadow, appeared a faint red — due to light refracted through air around the Earth. Today there is not only another full moon but a total lunar eclipse visible to observers in North and South America — an occurrence that may lead to some unexpected lunar colorings.
