astro forecast for Monday May 16

Monday. A decidedly Neptune day. Moon in intense and focused but watery Scorpio where all our unconscious contents come to the surface to be worked with. Mercury conjunct Venus in the early morning hours promised a deep night’s sleep. Upon rising Mercury sextile Neptune as we had morning coffee. Did you have strange, distorted or confusing dreams? Many did. Don’t try to sort them out; they will vaporize or congeal in the day ahead in some way to be more clear than when you had it. Today is a spacy day ruled by Neptune. Best to switch to your intuition and be guided by that, rather than to figure out this day. Like water spilled across a table top, Neptune has no boundaries. See where this mystical planet takes you today. Be the cork on the ocean and see what Neptune wants to show us or to teach us. Meditation is a very good idea today. It can help put you back in your body. If we aren’t “home” we can’t receive the info or knowledge or even the voice of our own intuition fully. Trust yourself today. Trust your inner voice, your own inner planner and see where it leads you. A highly creative day. A day to connect with the Cosmos in a significant way. Later, Mercury conjuncts with Venus. A day of travel to see friend or loved one. Or to hear from them via email or phone call. This is a test day in some ways. A test to see if we will practice compassion instead of dropping into our lower three chakras. Look for a way to practice compassion today. It can be as simple as a smile toward someone. Your fixed routine is no longer available thanks to Neptune’s powerful influence today. We all get to practice mutability and flexibility. Don’t fight it or the day will be absolutely miserable. This is a trust in the cosmos day and working with our own inner gyroscope.
