The New/Full Moon Energy for May 2021

By Donna Stellhorn

Hello everyone, I hope you’re safe and well. On May 26, there is the Full Moon in Scorpio. For the next two weeks after that, your focus is on power and your ability to let go of what no longer serves you. You could experience very strong emotions. At times, you may feel like your back is against the wall, and you’re ready to come out swinging. This is especially true in financial matters when money is owed to you or merchandise has not been delivered. There’s also an investigative quality about this full moon. You are willing to dig to find the truth. Additionally, the sign of Scorpio rules taxes, and tax deadlines fall during these two weeks.

The New Moon in Taurus is on May 11. For the next two weeks after that, the focus will be on finances and possessions. You may experience a real appreciation for what you own or have a desire to get rid of boxes and boxes of stuff. You could be looking to sell things you don’t need and acquiring things you covet. There’s a desire to have time off to sit in the sunshine and be with friends.

Saturn goes retrograde on May 23 at 13 degrees of Aquarius, and it will remain retrograde until Oct. 10. During this period, it’s good to build skills. These could be skills directly needed for your career or related to a hobby you want to turn into a business. Saturn is in Aquarius, so technical skills should be at the top of your list.

The Full Moon/Lunar Eclipse in Sagittarius is on May 26. The full moon energy lasts around two weeks, but eclipse energy can last for months. Eclipses bring changes. This particular eclipse focuses on how attitudes and societal rules are changing. There’s an awareness of spirituality and a desire to incorporate spiritual practices into daily life. There will be lots of talk about how prejudice and preconceived notions block spiritual and societal growth.

Finally, Mercury goes retrograde on May 29 and will remain in retrograde until June 22. Mercury retrograde can cause difficulties with computers, phones, or other devices. Mercury retrograde can also bring challenges with contracts and paperwork. Consider getting your new phone, visiting the DMV, or signing a purchase agreement for a house after the retrograde period.
