1:34 for more details. Now, this is going to be cool because I'm going to do this overview and I'm going to use that real time astrology clock that's available in Solar Fire software to show you the lunations of the month, the full moon and the new moon and to talk about it. But before I even do that, I'm going to start from the beginning. I'm going to talk about the astrology that's happening even before we get our first full moon. There's something so important occurring in early May that I did an entire video on this aspect alone. What I am referring to is the upcoming Venus Neptune conjunction in Aries at one degree. It will peak on May 2nd. And please take the time to watch the dedicated video that I did on this
2:20 conjunction because there is so much to unpack with this one little conjunction. It is monumental. I it is super important and I'm sure that more astrologers will be talking about it if they aren't already but I do believe this is something you want to watch in your chart in your life and also collectively in general this Venus Neptune conjunction is going to be beautiful okay it is going to be gorgeous it is inspirational as a matter of fact since it's happening in the sign of Aries I am going to say I'm going to call this the you're the inspiration conjunction that is because you're driving it whatever is happening here that's connected to romance to pleasure to developing your talents and abilities, to being entrepreneurial, to being imaginative, creative, to just
3:05 being a little bit softer and more open to life's possibilities. You are in the driver's seat of this energy now at May 2nd because the conjunction is occurring in Aries. It's beautiful. I love it. And what a great way to start the month truly. and May, end of May, the month of May, the month of June. These are some of my favorite months here in New York. I'm just super happy to always be outside. This is the kind of energy that I want you to believe in yourself fully. Understand that you are the miracle. You are the miracle worker. You are going to accomplish, achieve something that is beyond your wildest dreams. This is incredible manifesting energy if it is
3:52 put to use in the correct way. And if it happens to plug into your particular birth chart, oh my god, guys, I'm I'm not even kidding. This is this is big. This is big. If I tell you something is big, please listen to me. This is huge. Watch the other video because that will help you understand if this is huge for you in your birth chart or not. Okay. Now, moving on as we get into May 10th, this is a small energy, but I'll mention it because, you know, I happen to have this placement, so I know a thing or two about it. Mercury, the planet of communication, will enter the sign of Taurus. And Mercury in Taurus is very thickheaded. In fact, in Italian, there is a term called
4:38 gapsto, which means thickheaded. And growing up, I was always called And I I claim it. I'm not going to lie. I am a very thick-headed individual. This is the stubborn mind to the extreme. It is a fixed sign. It is a slow sign. So now the process of our thoughts, our decision- making, our learning capacity is going to slow down. I can be like a turtle when it comes to changing my mind and how I do things in in my life. And now collectively we are all going to have that energy. So it's a deliberate mental energy. But the
5:23 one positive thing about Mercury in any fixed sign, whether it's Taurus, Scorpio, Aquarius, uh, Leo, any fixed sign, Mercury tends to learn material slower, but once you once you learn it, you retain it forever. It's never going anywhere once it's in your noggin. So, Mercury and Taurus will offer that for all of us. There is going to be an incredible aspect that does occur with Mercury and it will happen on the same day that Saturn enters Aries which is on May 24th and that is that Mercury will be conjunct Uranus and on this day there is a flash of insight happening for us. There is a brilliant idea happening for all of us that we can put into use. I'll come back and I'll talk about Saturn and Aries later and I'll probably show that to you on the real time clock as well.
6:09 So now this brings me to the first lunation of the month, a full moon in Scorpio. And I am going to now defer to my share my screen with you. And if you are a subscriber to my channel, thank you so much. You know how much I value and appreciate you. If you're new here, I hope you decide to click that like button, click the subscribe button for more super uh informative astrology videos. I cover a lot of different topics here. all things astrology. And here we have the full moon. It occurs on May 12th at about 12:56 p.m. Eastern time. This chart is just set up for my location. So, do not
6:54 get caught up in houses and all that. It is just meant to show you the energy of the full moon. All full moons bring transition, bring illumination, bring change and perhaps an ending. this full moon wherever we have 22° of Scorpio in your birth chart. You have to find that wherever that is in your birth chart, whatever house, this is the house that can experience a sudden, extreme, and possibly permanent ending. Why am I saying sudden, extreme, and possibly permanent? Well, sudden because Uranus is attached
7:40 to this full moon. You see Uranus here at just under 27 degrees. Uranus is opposite the moon and moon Uranus oppositions are quite rattling, quite jarring for us. If you you think something is going to go one way, Uranian energy, it it really shakes up your nervous system and your expectations when it's connected to the moon. So there could be this sudden turn of events that throws you for a loop, that rattles you, that leads to an ending or a loss. And this is likely to be extreme because it's in the sign Scorpio and Scorpio doesn't do anything halfass. Scorpio is an all or nothing energy. So it's likely to be extreme and it is likely to be permanent. Now,
8:26 normally I only use the word permanent when I'm talking about an eclipse, but this is a full moon in a fixed sign, and it is, excuse me, the last full moon that we're going to get in the sign of Scorpio that is attached to Uranus because Uranus will have moved on into Gemini by next year. And so that leads me to speculate that perhaps whatever is ending, if something in fact is ending for you, it is a permanent ending. And a permanent ending doesn't have to be bad. Think about it this way. Let's say this full moon falls in
9:13 your eighth house of debt. And let's say you've been carrying student loans or credit card debt or you have a mortgage on your home or you have a car loan. Well, maybe it's a sudden ending to having debt and you're permanently paying it off and you're in a great financial position. So much depends on what this full moon is doing to your particular birth chart. Which is why I just can't let you guys get caught up in horoscopes in a general way. I I need to just make sure you understand you must look at this in the context of your particular birth chart to get the genuine, authentic, personalized, full story for yourself. For some of you, this could be a permanent ending that is very difficult and emotionally rattling.
9:58 And again, it depends on your birth chart. I'm going to say, let's be stingy with the math here, guys. Keep it tight to keep it right. This is my new saying as a predictive astrologer. Keep it tight to keep it right. This full moon is happening at 22° of Scorpio. So, let's allow a 3°ree orb in either direction for us to experience the most intense intense outcome of this full moon. And so, that would take us to about 25 Scorpio or down to 19 19 20 21ish. Okay? So, that is the full moon on May 12th. Now, that will clear up. And remember, I'm not saying this is a bad ending. I'm not saying this is a
10:45 good ending. I'm saying it is a sudden transition that could lead to an extreme and permanent ending and change for us. And that is life, my friends. That is just life. So, let's move on to the next celestial event. And I'm going to actually talk about this. I'm gonna keep this chart here, but I'm going to change the animation to days. And I'm going to see if I could get to um looking for May 22nd. Well, I went too far. All right. So, I'm trying to get to May 22nd here. And now that I'm on the day, I'm going to go back a little hours. I'm really having fun with this clock, by the way. And it is a feature
11:31 that as far as I know, it is exclusive to Solar Fire software. So, if you are an astrology enthusiast and you're ready to invest in software, I hope you consider purchasing Solar Fire. It has so many bells and whistles and you can get this software for an amazing 15% off if you use my dedicated coupon code insightstro 15 when you go to alabe.com to purchase the software. The description uh coupon and link is below in the description box if you are interested. So I hope you decide to take advantage of that if you are in the market for astrology software. All right, I think I've got it. I think I think I'm I think I'm as close as I'm going to get. I'm not going to I'm splitting hairs here. So, this this aspect that I'm
12:16 looking at is really quite beautiful. It is an exact trine between Venus and Mars. Now, normally I don't talk about this trine in any oh my god way, but I am talking about it in an oh my god way this time for a couple of reasons. The first reason is the fact that this happens with Venus in her sign of detriment. Venus in Aries is not very happy. And that's because she's forced to do Venus things wearing a Mars costume in a very aggressive, assertive, warrior-like, impulsive way rather than a receptive magnetic way, which is
13:04 Venus's way normally, right? Well, Venus in Aries doesn't act like that. I have Venus in Aries natalie, and I tell people all the time that know me, I I am many things, but a classy, elegant woman is not one of them. And I know that's true. I know I am not classy, elegant woman because I'm not Venus in Aries and I'm too impulsive and aggressive and assertive and embracive and impatient and I'll curse like a truck driver. Okay? So, I'm not I'm not delicate in that way. And that's Venus and Aries. So, you could see how that can sometimes be offputting or a barrier when you're connected to Venus things. Well, Venus is about to try Mars. These are the cosmic lovers. This is an incredible,
13:51 sexy, lovely romantic aspect to have. But this particular trine Venus is getting lifted up by Mars because Venus in Aries answers to Mars. So Mars at this point in time is in Leo, another fire sign, and is engaged now in a trine and is basically saying, "I've got you, Venus and Aries. We're actually going to reward you for your Venus and Aries antics now. And we're going to get you some hot stuff because of it. We're going to get you some loving. We're going to get you some money. We're going to get you some creative energy that's just really, really awesome. And so, I'm
14:36 a fan of this particular trine. It peaks on May 22nd. It is going to be amazing if you are an Aries rising in terms of romance because that Venus would be in your sign making you more beautiful and magnetic in general. But Mars would be in your fifth house of romance and pleasure. So that's going to be super super nice. It's also going to be really nice for a Sagittarius in terms of romantic energy because it's another fire sign and Sagittarius has Venus in the fifth house. So, uh you know there there are a couple of signs that are going to benefit more than others from this energy. Fire signs for sure. Leo obviously you're benefiting from it. So that is happening on the 22nd. Now let's
15:24 talk about the next celestial event here that is significant and this is again monumental. I'm sorry if I'm overusing that word but we do have a lot of monumental astrology. We've had you know since the end of March going into April and now in May. So the next monumental event I would like you to please focus your attention to the planet Saturn. So here I'm going to try to point it out to you so that you can see it easier. Right here we have Saturn at 29° 56 minutes of Pisces at least in this example. But
16:11 what I'm about to do is move it forward for you on this day and watch Saturn. Keep your eye on that Saturn. Saturn now is 2957. Saturn is 2958. It's now 2959. And now boom, we are now Saturn has entered Aries. And Saturn will enter Aries late on the 24th of May. Saturn enters Aries only for a brief period of time until September 1st will retrograde into Pisces to finish up those Pisces lessons and then in early 2026 ingresses permanently in Aries where he will stay
16:57 until 2028. So this is important because we actually recently had another major ingress. Neptune entered Aries last month and we've been getting used to that energy and right now that's pretty nice. Well, Saturn's joining the party now and Saturn is a very different energy. Saturn in Aries is saying, "Okay, we need to get serious now and very mature around anything connected to Aries ruled matters. your courage, your identity, your ability to push forward with something. And Saturn in Aries is at that critical degree, the Aries point. Events are thrust into
17:42 prominence. This is going to be a very dominant energy for us both both personally and collectively. So, you want to pay attention to where 0 degrees of Aries is in your birth chart. If you have a planet conjunct or square or opposed or an angle, it's on an angle. It is going to be magnified for you in life significance. Lifech changing events guys will happen for you if this is the case. And Saturn here is a weight. It is sobbriety. It is the ultimate sobriety test for our authenticity and our identity as Saturn enters Aries. And this is kind of interesting because Neptune entered Aries and Neptune creates that haze and that cast of confusion and imagination and and maybe hope, but also a little
18:30 bit of disenchantment of who am I? What do I want? Right? That would be like the Neptune and Aries energy. I don't even I'm erased. I feel like I've been erased. I don't see. I'm invisible. I'm not being seen. Neptune and Aries. Okay. But now Saturn's here and Saturn is saying, "Hold the phone. You're not invisible. You're just remaking yourself. You're just turning into something different." And there has to be a plan and a lot of work that will occur in order to create something solid in that Aries house of yours. And that's what you're about to do. So this is absolutely important. I did an entire video on Saturn and Aries, Saturn and Aries horoscopes for each sign. So, this
19:17 was already covered for you guys in another video. So, please search that video if I remember to. I will link it either at the end or in the description box. Remember, this is just your general overview. And so, now that will happen. And the same day, remember I was talking about this Mercury Uranus conjunction? Well, it it's showing us a little bit separated in this uh particular I'm just going to backtrack it a little bit so that you could see that it's exact on this day. So, here we have Mercury conjunct Uranus in Taurus at about 27° just under 28°. So if you have any planets or points at lateree
20:04 fixed signs, there's going to be some sudden upset here, sudden outburst. You want to be careful. Maybe put some duct tape around your mouth if if you've got something close there. Uh if not, it is if it's engaging in a positive way in your birth chart, this is a brilliant bright idea. And it happens on the same day that Mercury enters, I'm sorry, that Saturn enters uh Aries. Okay. So, super super interesting. And now let's go to the final event that is occurring a couple of days later and that is going to be our new moon. And we're going to have a new moon in Gemini. And I'm going to try to get exactly to that new moon for you. And I
20:50 just passed it. It's This is like such a toy to play with. I'm still new to this. This is such a toy to me. But for those of you who've had this for a while, this particular software, you're used to it. It's just it's a lot of fun. Okay, here we have our new moon on May 26th at 11 p.m. Eastern time. So, adjust for your your time zone. And we've got the sun and the moon are conjunct at 6° of Gemini. This is a gorgeous new moon. Okay, the full moon this month might be a little dicey. This new moon, love the energy. Pluto is trying the new moon. That's gorgeous. We love that. Mercury's next to it trying
21:37 Pluto. Powerful, potent energies with this new moon. Your Gemini house is having an incredible new beginning that is going to be empowering, that is going to be possibly connected to marketing, communications, teaching, information, maybe even technology with Pluto and Aquarius. This is amazing energy. I love it. And you want to use this new moon. So, you want to launch something. This would be and and I'm also looking at as a matter of fact it's wide and it's separating but even here we have some nice aspects there is not one difficult aspect here with this new moon it's it's
22:24 beautiful and by the way the last aspect that this new moon is going to make will be a conjunction to Jupiter in Gemini I'm going to give you guys some free electional astrology advice right now. This new moon now, not on the 26th. Well, the 27th is actually um uh Hold on. Hold please. Let me let me get my days of the week here. The 27th is a Tuesday.
