WITCH TIPS & HOROSCOPES 5/15-21

Astrology by Lisa Stardust

The week starts with the First Quarter Moon in Leo on May 15th, urging us to set new intentions and manifest greatness. The same day, Mercury enters Taurus, urging us to be practical-minded, tender, and sincere with our words. Mercury and Pluto retrograde in Aquarius square off on May 17th, bringing intense and defensive interactions and reactions into the mix. The flip-side of this transit can help us heal and grow, if we choose to remove ourselves from the drama. Venus and Uranus unite on the 18th, the same day that the Sun and Jupiter share a conjunction (all of these planets are in Taurus), encouraging us to take risks and step out of our comfort zone. The Taurus Sun harmonizes with Neptune in Pisces on May 19, making our dreams tangible. Mars and the North Node of Destiny aligns on the 19th, adding desire and passion to our lives. The Sun ingresses into Gemini on May 20, heightening our communication for the month ahead.

Witch-tips:

May 18’s celestial energy is a prime time to manifest. Write a letter of intention to the universe to bring growth and expansion to areas of your life that need to change. Then, light a purple candle to honor the planet Jupiter and meditate on your goals. The sky’s the limit, so dream big!

Capricorn

You’ll begin to feel more inclined to take extra time for your emotional needs this week. As a result, you might find that putting yourself first is the antidote you’ve always needed to hear. Those in long-standing relationships will undergo many spiritual and necessary transformations from your evolving heart and mentality.

Aquarius

You may feel that your home life and family matters are more erratic and out of control than ever. Instead of trying to push through matters, try to ebb and flow through them. The more you actively resist change, the harder it will be to embrace it as it comes.

Pisces

A culmination of circumstances feel out of your control at the moment, allowing you to take a look at your previous actions and augment them in the present. It is never too late to do the right thing, even if it means having to heal and deal with the past.
