Hi, this is Dietrech Pessin with the Astrology Report for the week ahead.

We have a New Moon today. That New Moon takes place at… let us see, what time. 4:01 PM. It is right after that. Right around that time is a really good Green Light period. If you want to use it to advance your goals, it will be the only one for a couple of days, a couple of more days into the week. Because the Gemini Moon to follow is very tricky. It has too many complications to be useful for some type of business adventure. Or even forwarding your goals if you want to go buy a new sofa, or a new scarf, or anything that you would like to do. Because the Taurus energy for the New Moon definitely about possessions, acquisition, acquiring those things that you want and you need.

The Moon sign will change at 10:22 PM. That is when the Moon will enter the sign of Gemini for the following couple of days.

The first thing the Moon is going to do is conjunct Uranus. Now, I think Uranus has been the culprit for all of these troubles lately. There have been so many complications and difficulties upside down, inside out.

Uranus changed signs on the 25th of April, and that is just about when it seems like chaos entered our daily routine.

Each time that a planet is going to connect with Uranus, we might see more of it, think more of it.  We are going to have that on Sunday when Mercury joins up with Uranus. It is at 8:10 PM, but I bet we are going to feel that all day long. It is not necessarily just going to be that particular time for that aspect. The Moon being in Gemini has things in a multi-level and a multi-layer, many things going on. Maybe you can see under a façade. Maybe you can see through what is said to be the truth. You can uncover lies and any type of deception with the Moon. It is going to be Moon in Gemini, Mercury in Gemini, Uranus in Gemini. Wow, a lot of things that are being said. Before they are done, they need to be sorted out.

I just want to mention a friend of mine's 84th birthday, Michelle Hunter. She is probably not in our listening zone, but she is having a very important 84th birthday today, Saturday the 16th.

So going back over the 17th with that Mercury conjunct Uranus, that is pretty much the headliner on that one.  Gemini Moon is with us also on Monday.

So, we have some big changes going on. On Monday, planets changing their signs. We have first Mercury going into Gemini, then Mars changing signs going into Taurus. This is during the Gemini Moon sign. Then Venus goes into Cancer. So that Gemini Moon sign, that is why it is difficult, because there is too many changes. When you have a planet changing signs, whatever was going on just ahead of that, just before that, gets dropped. Or you change your mind about it. Or somebody discourages you, and you drop it. Or you just completely change your direction. Well, we have those bumps three times while the Moon is in the sign of Gemini, so there is not going to be any continuity.

We will get, as I mentioned, with Mercury in Gemini, a lot of thinking about particularly what is being said. A lot of information and gossip traveling around with that Moon sign as well.

Then we Have…  rather that that planet sign Mercury into Gemini,

So then still with the Moon in Gemini, Mars will enter the sign of Taurus, that is going to be on the 18th Monday. That will be at 6:25 PM. Not all done with the changes because Venus still needs to go and make her change. She will leave Gemini and go into Cancer. that will be at 9:05 PM on Monday the 18th.

Hello, Mary Butler. She has a birthday on the 18th.

Then we have a Moon sign change that happens at 9:46 PM. The Moon enters the sign of Cancer. It will be there for a couple of days. Let us see, when does that change? It changes on Wednesday. The Moon will enter the sign of Leo.

But before then, we want to check in with Tuesday on the 19th during the Cancer Moon sign. We see Mercury and Neptune making an aspect. This one has a really vivid imagination. High ideals about what it thinks, how it thinks things ought to be. So, you have to be careful. You want to evaluate the value of what is being offered, as far as information goes, before spreading any stories around.

Also, Venus and Mars are in an aspect. This is one of opportunity. This could bring about help from somebody important. You could seize an opportunity, or maybe you are just going to let it fly. But it is Venus and Mars. It might be something important. Maybe about interpersonal relationships, meeting, new love life. Maybe there is somebody you really want to talk to. You could be dealing with a friend or a sibling with this important relationship. Relationships tend to be much more friendly and less sexual. Your good buddies. That is the harmony that comes in with this aspect. Cooperation is implied. So, you may take short trips with the friend. Also, long trips tend to be very simple, coming and going, not a whole lot going on in between. Usually, success is implied when there is a sextile going on like that. So, it is a real good aspect to have in your court when you are making plans to do something on a on a good day.

There is another aspect with Mercury, this time it is parallel Jupiter. This definitely wraps your mind around some expanded thoughts. Mercury, however, is square to the Lunar Nodes. This might indicate that the people that are coming and going are not particularly friendly. They may be saying things that are inappropriate or not agreeing to the plans that are being made. So, I would be aware of the fact that Mercury could be kicking up a ruckus.

Mercury is also making a trine to Pluto. This is where conversation gets really intense and deep. That is with May 19th, Tuesday, 6:53 PM is when it is exact. But those types of aspects we experience them all day and all through the night.

On the 20th, that is on Wednesday the Moon is in Cancer. Let us see when that Cancer Moon changed. That was way back on Monday. We had it through Tuesday and into Wednesday. It will be in the sign of Cancer until 10:48 PM. That is on Wednesday.

One of the things about Wednesday that is a big deal is the Sun leaves the sign of Taurus and enters Gemini. It will be there for a month starting on May 20th.

It will go there until that time in June, around June 21st, when we have the first day of summer.

The Leo Moon comes in at 10:47 PM. That Leo Moon will see conversations between Mercury and Pluto. Things get even deeper, more intense on the 21st Thursday.

Then the Moon joins Uranus and is also joining with the Sun. The Sun and Uranus have something particularly important going on. On the 21st, 2:03 PM is when that Sun Uranus aspect is cooking up something unique and unusual. Maybe it is showing where things advance in a particular way that are unpredictable and brazen.

You can also say during that Leo Moon, the day changes. May 22nd comes in. That is next Friday, and the exact aspect again pops up between the Sun and Uranus. So, take something seriously that they are putting forward, something inventive. 10:06 AM is when that happens next Friday. That is an important aspect to be able to understand.

I do not know, maybe the craziness that is going on too. That could help to relieve it to have the Sun finally conjunct and show all of what is going on underneath that experience of Uranus.

Last year, July 7th, which is Victor's birthday, by the way, we had Uranus go into the sign of Gemini then on that day. And what we had with all that Uranus energy is that it stayed there in that sign until November 7th. So, we have an experience, a history, with this Uranus and Gemini energy. You may want to think back to last summer and see what experiences you might want to review. Then it went retrograde and turned direct.

This April 25th is when Uranus went into Gemini. It goes retrograde this September. That will be on the 10th all the way up to 5°(degrees) of Gemini. So, getting quite deep. It will be going backwards until February 8 of 2027. So, Uranus is going to be on the table for discussion quite a bit over this next year.

The Moon is in Virgo on Friday. Well, late night. That is actually going to be next Saturday morning at 2:57 AM. So, we will have that Leo Moon with us up until then, until next Saturday. So that is it for the week.

You can find a copy of this on my website at Lunar-Shadows.com. Kimberly Chin will transcribe graciously. Thank you, Kimberly. And I want to say hi to Julie. She is always there for us, keeping us connected. And Victor, it is your turn. Take it away. Okay, that is all for now. Bye.

WZBC 90.3 FM Boston Massachusetts on Saturday mornings with Victor Robert Venckus, Expanding Awareness, in and around 9:30 AM.

 

Victor: Hey, Dietrech is with us on line now. Every Saturday, morning. Good morning,

Dietrech: Good morning. Victor. We have an interesting week. Well, we never not have an interesting week. But the planets are arranged in such a way that there are not too many interactions between them where, normally we have a lot. We have a long list of events to talk about during the week.

This week, mostly Pluto is in the game. So, Pluto is about power and about change, deep transformation and change. So, if that relates to something that you are feeling or doing, a lot of it is feelings.

Pluto rules the sign of Scorpio, and the Moon is in the sign of Scorpio. while Pluto is being so showy this week, it will not be in the sign of Scorpio when Pluto makes its change. That will happen on Wednesday. But the Scorpio Moon leads into it.

So, Scorpio is about doing things in secret. If you want to take the kids toys and hide them so that you have some peace and quiet or something. Or if you want to do anything in secret, this is the Scorpio Moon for it. Although you have to consider the fact that it may not work out the way you plan, because it is complicated. That is the nature of Scorpio, it is complicated. Every time you hear somebody ask a question, that is the answer. Well, it is complicated. Which means they are still hiding all the matters. There is a lot of research that you can do that will pay off, which would be the best thing, the best way to apply your energy. Then, if you can have a way that you are less straightforward with people, so that you can continue through the process that you are working on. That would be good. Get rid of things that are that have worn out their usefulness.

So, this is a spring-cleaning Scorpio Moon. You want to consider that crime may not pay off. Secrets and dishonesty do not pay off in general. So, if you just go it alone. If you are trying to hide things, matters may be too complicated to ever succeed. Your research is faulty, so be careful about what you think you dragged up. Things will come out in the open. We are under the influence of a Full Moon. So that in and by itself, helps things to be showy and show off.

One big thing that is happening today is that Mercury changes signs, goes into the sign of Taurus. So, Mercury in Taurus has a very plotting type of thinking process, and is very interested in methodology. So, it is important. The important thing is traditional knowledge. You learn things in a slow, methodical way, hands on manner. You stick to old ideas. You may fear having to learn anything new when Mercury is in Taurus, because you are going on the notion of what you already know, and you want to prove it.

Well, in comes the Sagittarius Moon. So, what we have also for May 2nd is a Moon sign change will come in tomorrow morning. So, all the way into late night, we have that Scorpio Moon.

Then on Sunday, the Moon goes into Sagittarius. That is going to be the happy sign. This is the sign where you want to get up and go out, be outside, be playful. Be among others who are happy to be outside and be among the rest of the world. We have all day, Sunday, the Sagittarius, Moon sign. This is when you do not have a strong sense of direction, but you do not really need it. You just go and Ad Lib all of your situations and go towards events. Also, you can succeed on optimism. That is the key word for Sagittarius, is optimism. People forget your verbal blunders and hypocrisy. But if you do not blow all the rules of etiquette because they will not serve you. Well, there is a relaxed attitude that goes along with the Sagittarius Moon sign.

We have that also on Monday, the Moon is quincunx the Sun. That is life is messy. Clean it up. That is early before the day begins. But some people might be getting, up around quarter to seven in the morning. That quincunx might be prompting you to get up because maybe you heard a noise and you need to tend to it.

Also, throughout Monday, we have a couple of excellent things going on. The Moon and Jupiter make contact. Mars and Jupiter, they make contact on Monday evening, at 10:00 PM. This is an aspect that drives people towards expanding their awareness, going places, maybe making a plan to travel. Tuesday, the Sagittarius Moon is still with us until 3:15 PM.  Then the Moon goes into Capricorn.

The Capricorn Moon is particularly about business and about structure. You do not want to give up anything that you want. It is a time for any type of time to be honest. You may not be totally honest, but you may find you need to be honest. You tend to act out the limits or normal perimeters and take the law into your own hands during a Capricorn Moon. So, you could be forced to operate in enemy territory. So, whatever that means for you.

Mercury and Pluto, in their square aspect is the thinking process objects to all the power and control of Pluto.

Wednesday, we still have a Capricorn Moonshine. Pluto does go retrograde on Wednesday, and that is for several months. So, it happens at 5° (degrees) of Aquarius. If you are an Aquarius, a Leo, a Taurus or Scorpio, this could be completely pointed to whatever your goals are and your interests are.

The Capricorn Moon is with us all the way into Thursday, until 8:43 PM. The last aspect is the Moon links up with Venus. that is a good sign, making this a Green Light period.

So, we would say that Green Light starts after Pluto goes retrograde on Wednesday. That would be, let us say, around noon. We have a Green Light noon time Wednesday, all the way through till 8:43 PM on Thursday. Then we have a void of course Moon sign until 3:27AM on Friday.

The Moon's last aspect for the Aquarius Moon that comes in on Friday, will be a sextile that is 60°. That says there is an opportunity, a big opportunity there. That Aquarius Moon sign is happy to be involved with friends or groups, like-minded people. You stand out because you are different. If you are working, doing something during the Aquarius Moon sign.  You have the ability to do things unexpectedly or in a manner that seems totally out of character. So that is it for the week.

You have a copy of this on my website at Lunar-Shadows.com. The Moon is in Aquarius also next Saturday. If you want to plan something with friends, that is a good time to do that. or like-minded groups of people, maybe that want to protest something like that. Okay, that is it for the week, and we will speak again next week. Thank you, Victor.
