To The Edge & Beyond
“I see and when the Eye is opened, all is light” – The Taurus Mantra
This week, as the 5/5 Taurus Gateway opens on May 5th, Earth core grid energies rise through your feet and lower chakras – a reminder of your place on Gaia and your responsibility to sustain the Tree of Life. The Sun is conjunct Albion at 14° Taurus – taking us beyond Pluto, beyond the edge, beyond the threshold to the unknown – evolutionary growth rather than the change or die Pluto effect.
The Buddha’s sign of Earthy Taurus symbolises the World 3rd Eye and the pineal gland, the ancestral master cell of untapped DNA. Taurus is literally plugged in to the enormous light of the seven hotly burning blue-white stars of the Pleiades – the central Sun – acting as a channel or gateway to the light of this tremendous centre, receiving powerful energies from Sirius and the Star of Aldebaran.
On May 8th, the glorious New Moon at 18° Taurus at the heart of a necklace of stars brings new beginnings. The practical yet visionary conjunction of Venus / Sun / Moon / Uranus / Jupiter in Taurus with Jupiter trine Pluto – archetype of wealth – creates an incredible opening for you to find workable ways to build deep foundations for a better financial future.
The Bull teaches you about magnetism and the nature of desire related to your body, your money, your home and your values and priorities. Wherever Taurus is in your chart is all about consistent building. Whatever hunger begins to awaken will send you on the hunt to generate, stabilise and cultivate your personal security.
- Create, nurture, grow and build something lasting and beautiful, no matter how small or private.
- Audit your money, talents / gifts / skills / resources that can support you, where you derive your security, your ability to survive and feel safe in the world.
- Manage your material world and stop underestimating or undervaluing your skills.

Chandra Symbol New Moon
Chandra Symbol New Moon TAURUS 19: A crown turns into goat horns.
“A remarkable instinct for the next lesson. Finding it, learning it, and drawing everything out of it that you can. Specialised in destiny activation and interested in nothing else. Driven to take up karmic lessons all the way. Wildly given over to what is taken on. Working the territory as hard as you can. Making way for something new by wearing out the old. Assigned to tough situations, yet knowing it is appropriate. Super strong, and especially tenacious and relentless. In deepest essence, sacrificing yourself so that something can happen here that is going to take a lot of doing. And inside it all, you are curiously resigned to whatever arises, not very concerned because long range results mean everything here. And a moment’s or a lifetime’s discomfort is a small price to pay when destiny is truly involved.” – Inside Degrees Elias Lonsdale
Aries Weekly Forecast: May 5th – 12th 2024
The cluster of Taurean planets plus a New Moon is a prompt to re-think some of your more limiting beliefs about money and sources of income. Over the next two weeks, watch as events re-arrange themselves, possibly removing one longstanding client or job role and/or delivering sudden insights into new avenues to attract money.
Align your priorities with your values.
Taurus Weekly Forecast: May 5th – 12th 2024
The coming fortnight is full of opportunities to enjoy yourself, to remember what makes your heart sing and to put the past to bed. The conjunction of Jupiter with Uranus in your sign has started to shift something inside you and this desire for change, for new adventures to liberate you from your predictable comfort zone will build and build.
At the Taurus Full Moon on May 8th, plant the seeds for a more fulfilling life.
Gemini Weekly Forecast: May 5th – 12th 2024
From May 26th, Jupiter will return to Gemini for the first time in 12 years, opening up your options and your world, making it seem bigger and brighter. Until then, a gathering of planets in Taurus, your hidden 12th House, is stirring up your unconscious, dragging up both angels and monsters from the depths. Pay attention to your night time dreams-they are delivering important messages from the world beyond the world.
Capture your insights and epiphanies before they disappear.
Cancer Weekly Forecast: May 5th – 12th 2024
The necklace of planets in Taurus in your 11th House is a nudge to frame your connections as your greatest asset. That may include your work teams, social circles, charity engagement – any activities on or offline that need collaboration. With Jupiter nearing the master degree of Taurus, your greatest opportunities will come through other people.
At the May 8th New Moon, commit to a project that holds meaning for you.
Leo Weekly Forecast: May 5th – 12th 2024
Until May 26th, when Jupiter enters Gemini, the gathering of planets in Taurus at the pinnacle of your chart will deliver opportunity after opportunity to carve out a new path. This could be in your career or service work or mastering a new skill in retirement. No matter how it plays out for you, choose the road less travelled and make it something with heart.
Seed your new chapter at the Taurus New Moon on May 8th.
Virgo Weekly Forecast: May 5th – 12th 2024
The cluster of planets in Taurus, your 9th House of far horizons, is starting something of a revolution in your thinking. It’s no longer enough to pay lip service to change but way past time to throw a spanner into your well-oiled habits and routines. Which big ideas have you been incubating? Which part of you is ready for an adventure?
At the New Moon on May 8th, become the practical visionary you were born to be.
Libra Weekly Forecast: May 5th – 12th 2024
You must be feeling as if you’re currently having to bend backwards to accommodate others’ demands. In fact, psychologically, the ball is not in your court now. There is a huge cluster of planets in both Aries and Taurus nudging you to make changes at work and in your partnerships. Mars in Aries could feel quite confrontational but it doesn’t have to be.
Focus on creating win/win scenarios and building alliances rather than “winning” battles.
Scorpio Weekly Forecast: May 5th – 12th 2024
With Venus, Sun, Moon, Uranus and Jupiter clustered in your opposite sign of practical Taurus, all your partnerships are in the frame. This could be personal or professional, intimate or contractual. You might sign a publishing deal or take on a financial advisor or meet someone who feels like a kindred spirit. With this planetary support, it’s time to invest in your commitments and strengthen your bonds.
Celebrate togetherness at the Taurus New Moon on May 8.
Sagittarius Weekly Forecast: May 5th – 12th 2024
If you’ve been under the weather recently or had your nose to the grindstone, channel the practical Taurus energy to complete work projects, tie up loose ends and make an appointment to have a health check. Saturn in your 4th House suggests that home is where your heart is, so if you can set up a work station where you live, go for it. Happily, your personal planet Jupiter is about to return to Gemini from May 26th to stay in your opposite sign for an entire year, boosting your closest partnerships.
Cut yourself some slack around the New Moon on May 8.
Capricorn Weekly Forecast: May 5th – 12th 2024
A huge gathering of planets across Aries and Taurus is emphasising the importance of your role in the family and tribe. You might be having to handle a sensitive situation or be the one the others turn to for advice. At the same time, Jupiter and Uranus in your 5th House are triggering exciting ideas for creative self-expression which you really want to explore. No matter how it’s all playing out for you, refuse to accept duties and responsibilities which are not yours to shoulder.
The cage door is wide open.
Aquarius Weekly Forecast: May 5th – 12th 2024
With Pluto now retrograde in Aquarius, it’s time to rethink your priorities. So much is changing around you, especially at home, that you have many more options than you realise. Jupiter and Uranus in Taurus are showing you that habits are just a self-created cage and not tablets of stone. Happily, on May 26th, Jupiter returns to fellow Air sign Gemini for the first time since 2013, nudging you to broaden your horizons.
The New Moon on May 8 is a time to get out of your head, away from your screens and into nature.
Pisces Weekly Forecast: May 5th – 12th 2024
The gathering of planets in grounded Taurus this week around the New Moon on May 8th is the time to complete a project, a program of study or a redesign of your website. It’s all about updating your various communication platforms so that they better match your goals and your vision. From May 26th, auspicious Jupiter returns to the base of your chart for the first time since 2013 and your home, family and tribe expand in importance.
Prioritising what matters.

Gemini Compatibility In Love, Work & Friendship
If your birthday falls between May 21 and June 20, it’s likely your zodiac sun sign is Gemini. In astrology, this means you were born under the sign of the airy, witty twins — and you might be curious about Gemini compatibility.
We’re talking Gemini love compatibility, Gemini friendship compatibility and even compatibility in the workplace.
Master astrologer Shannon Aganza, creator of MoonGathering Astrology and Numerology Coursework says that if you’re working with or crushing on a Gemini, be ready for a lot of talking. “Be comfortable with words,” says Aganza. “Gemini embodies the idea that the mind and body are one, and they love the intermingling of minds.”
