Week of 5.4.15

Kat's Overview for May 4, 2015

Well, if you're reading this, you made it through that intense Scorpio Full Moon over the weekend. And even though the Moon is still in dark and brooding, emotionally powerful Scorpio as the week begins (until 9:45p Monday) that energy is waning. So when you read the Scorpio Moon depiction below, tamp down the intensity level by a third.

Of course some people actually enjoy festering in their own emotional swamps. They will be unable to resist wringing every last bit of drama out of the Scorpio Moon by picking old wounds and new fights. Steer clear of them. I know you’ll take the high road and welcome the more self reflective, transcendent and healing aspects of Scorpio. Won’t you?

By Tuesday, our collective mood will be so bright we’ll all be wearing shades as the Moon enters ever-jolly Sagittarius. Consider this cheerful energy the reward for slogging through Scorpio’s dark side of the moon.  We get two and a half days of this expansive energy (from Tuesday, 7:13a, through Thursday, 1:51p) so make the most of it. Play hooky or at least take a very long lunch.  You can save any heavy lifting this week, like preparing budgets or ticking and tying accounts, for when the Moon moves into no-nonsense Capricorn (Thursday, 2:16 pm through Saturday 4:35pm).

Overall, this looks like another good week. The Void Moons are easily avoidable and shouldn’t get in the way of whatever projects or events you have planned.

The work week ends with the Moon in industrious Capricorn, making Friday the best day to be responsible, tie up loose ends and take care of business. Saturday evening looks like a good time for a more intimate gathering, like that special date or getting together with a few close friends.
