Astrology for 5/6/2024

I am sure everyone has been feeling the Pluto coming into a semi-square with Saturn. Today, is the first one but there will be two other ones. One on September 25^th and the third will be on January 26^th, 2025. This aggravation and frustration that you might be feeling is being activated by these bad boys of the zodiac. It is throwing each of us off in some odd directions. On one level we are trying to get our power back into a place of peaceful alignment and flow. On another, we are balking at the manipulations of those that seem intent to mess with our heads and hearts.
We want change but the weight of the negative intentions of some seem to make us feel more blocked than helped. We know that what once was, is no more. We know that the past patterns just do not seem to work in this very new game. Our expectations want to dream but the reality is like pulling taffy. Life feels sticky and it just does not seem to want to stretch as quickly as we want or need.
That I why thinking of it as pulling taffy … is the correct metaphor to play with. We are going to have to pull slowly, consistently, and it will in the end be our determination and persistence that will win the game.
Regardless, we are all going to have to keep adjusting our expectations with this current astrology.
Mercury and Chiron will align this evening, and this gives our intuition more enthusiasm and spark. We notice the subtle messages that are coming from others and can read more between the lines.
Then Saturn and the Sun will sextile and while tomorrow is the big day where they are exact, we can use the coming energy to organize things and make a better plan.
There are a lot of things that we need to attend to and make sure you address the most basic and practical levels first. Much is being demanded of us and we might as well put our attention to what matters most.
It can feel as if we are trying to learn how to dance to a very new rhythm. At first, we seem to be out of step or sync. But just know that over time, each person will find a way to connect with this energy and in the end it will be a beautifully humbling experience where we learn that we are not the expert nor do we need to be any longer.
What matters most are those things and people that really are a part of our world. When we feel safe … we can move more easily. When we are realistic in our goals, we, more often than not, succeed.
