Flowing with the planets as we step into May 2024

With the detrimental moon in Capricorn, a suitable way to flow is to keep a low profile and remain calm and collected.  This isn't easy with Venus still in Aries (albeit hovering over the final degree), but her dispositor Mars is still in mellow Pisces, it is feasible.  

As we move into May, we have Venus already in her first degree of Taurus, her dignified status.  Matters of love and enjoyment is supported by the Moon in Aquarius.  They will meet via a dynamic square at 11 degrees, excitement versus stability, which will you go for?

Mars enters Aries on May Day/
Beltane and will remain in dignity for 6 weeks.  Take advantage of having Mars in Aries until 10th June.  Use it wisely and tap into its exuberant energy of being a proactive pioneer, a courageous crusader or an enthusiastic explorer.  Avoid unleashing your inner furies, unless you have the determination to tame them.  Transform them face on and reap the rewards of becoming a better person.

Power of the Moon: Transiting in Capricorn

The moon is the closest piece of rock/satellite to us, hence its influence is said to be strong for us Earthlings.  

It enters a new sign every 2.5 days.  

Depending on which part of the world you are currently located, it's due to make its ingress into Capricorn on:

30th April 2021  09:15:58 (Los Angeles PDT)

1st May 2021 01:15:58am (Tokyo JST)

Mood, behaviour, state of mind under a Capricorn moon:

Serious, sober, calm, mature, controlled, stable, cautious, business-like, diligent, ambitious, practical, dutiful, responsible,  restrained, pessimistic

It's a great time to get things done, especially for work, or other practical matters.  Also appropriate for discussing serious topics.

It is not particularly an entertaining time, so parties held under this moon may end up to be like a meeting!  Or Topics discussed may take on a more serious tone than usual.
