On The Launch Pad: Astrology Forecast May 29th – June 5th, 2022
What to expect this week?
By Lorna Bevan | Guest Writer
As Mars conjuncts gas giant Jupiter in fiery Aries today, are you ready to take a chance on life and press the launch button on new projects and plans? Monday’s New Moon in Gemini brings a fresh wind of change as both Mercury and Saturn slow to station before Mercury turns direct at 26 Taurus on Friday 3rd and Saturn turns retrograde at 25 Aquarius on Saturday 4th.
The New Moon on Mars-like Fixed star Aldebaran aspects Mars/Jupiter and Pluto as Mercury aligns with Neptune, so the message is clear- trust your instincts, no second guessing! As Saturn stations, get your head on straight, check your blueprint and make sure your fuel tanks are full. Saturn in your chart and by transit symbolises your evolving potential, so, to capitalise on this retrograde, turn toward unknown terrain to gather and harvest wisdom – deliberately going off the mainstream path and beyond the norm.
One caveat…on the world stage, with Mercury reactivating the Taurus Sun’s eclipse degree and the inflammatory combination of the New Moon on Aldebaran and Jupiter/Mars in Mars ruled Aries, things could easily get combustible and volatile. In your own life, channel this surge of energy into a burst of creativity and watch the magic happen…
The Chandra Symbol for the New Moon says it perfectly:
Chandra Symbol 9 Gemini New Moon
Wild flowers growing round the ruins of a temple.
“Catching a second wind. Taking a booster rocket from one cycle to another, one lifetime to another, one whole stage in evolution to another. Shot out of a cannon to discover the next great thing, you are wildly attentive to signs and portents, looking for a way to the future. Coming out of immense soul experience. Eager for a thousand universes to come true. You feel that ultimate springtime quality of fresh immediacy, just sensing all through body and soul the possibilities, the openings, what wants to happen next. A destiny-bearer–universal in spirit, in the right place at the right time for remarkable synchronicities and huge turnarounds.” – Inside Degrees Elias Lonsdale

Taurus Weekly Forecast: May 29-June 5, 2022
This week the new landscape created by the May 16th lunar eclipse across your sign is finally going to be revealed. Mercury slows at 26 Taurus turning forward on June 3rd and the eclipse dust settles. On Monday May 30th, the Gemini New Moon begins a new financial year for you. Reset your priorities and, with Mars and Jupiter boosting your confidence, challenge yourself to set bigger and more ambitious practical goals. Your personal planet Venus will smooth your path until June 23rd as she lights up your sign, upping your attractor quotient and reminding you of what really matters to you as a Taurean.
Simplify and streamline.
Gemini Weekly Forecast: May 29-June 5, 2022
On May 30th your annual New Moon marks your personal New Year-it’s time to take the road less travelled and set an intention to choose the untried over your comfort zone at every choice point. With Mars conjunct expansive Jupiter in your angle of friends, groups and alliances, that’s where your greatest opportunities are. Just make sure you focus on feeding friendships and not defeating foes. Be very selective in your choice of Instagram/social media feeds, online communities, the books you read, the programs you watch, the people you spend time with – what you feed your mind is as important as what you feed your body.
Broadening your horizons.

A changing of the guard.

Libra Weekly Forecast: May 29-June 5, 2022
There could be some real drama or acting out in certain relationships around May 29th when Mars conjuncts over-the-top Jupiter in your opposite sign of Aries. The worst thing you can do with this volatile astrology is to throw petrol on the flames or issue ultimatums. Refuse to engage in interpersonal soap operas and wait it out.

Start making travel plans.
