This is the week to get things in motion. Yes, Jupiter is Retrograde, but Monday morning the Sun is trine Jupiter and sextile Uranus. So this week kicks off the upcoming Jupiter-Uranus sextile (exact on May 21), with a blast!

The good feelings you have now may start to seem like an illusion as the Sun squares Neptune Wednesday morning. However, your intuition is giving you a real glimpse into what is possible, a sudden AHA!

Even if you start to question and doubt what your higher awareness is trying to bring to your attention, you already have the message and possess the awareness. Refining it may need more work, but new ideas are already in circulation– all you have to do is plug into the current. This is social networking used to the highest benefit of the planet and the new consciousness that is rising. This is just the closing bell to get on board with new social technology and ideology.

And the positive aspects to the Sun on Monday show us how each of us, how, as individuals, can contribute our unique talents, interests, and ingenious ideas to the groupmind. This is a time when our world understanding is going through a major shift. It’s not a painful shift, but it is obvious. At the Full Moon on May 19, the Jupiter-Uranus sextile will be quickly approaching (exact on May 21), along with a Mercury Retrograde station (starting May 26). The new awareness can open and change minds. Quickly.

With Jupiter Retrograde and Mercury entering the retrograde shadow (May 11), there can be some backsliding over the next few weeks, and also more minds getting more information and making changes. We are receiving the awareness that we need to be more open to change on a social, ideological, religious level, and while many of us are excited by the opportunity, many of us are afraid of what the future may bring and are holding on to the past by using social issues to make political decisions. Will our fears and prejudices guide our thoughts and decisions? Or are we ready to break through to a more positive perspective, to take a leap of faith that together, with a serious commitment, we can create real change.

When you choose to see life in a positive perspective, anything starts to be possible. Things are exciting. Yet, instead of tensing up, you can relax and think calmly. And from a calm state of mind you can think of better solutions to real problems. This is not the time to keep your great ideas and solutions to yourself. Share, publish, video, network, publicize, and proudly promote your evolutionary ideas, online and offline.

On Mother’s Day, the Moon, which represents MOTHER in astrology, is in Leo and prominent in the chart.

There is a First Quarter Moon, which occurs when the Sun and Moon are square, or 90 degrees apart. At the time of the Quarter Moon, the Moon is at 21 Leo 48, the Sun at 21 Taurus 48. This is a Taurus-Leo First Quarter Moon.

And that’s not all that’s at 21 degrees of the signs.

Uranus is at 21 Pisces 50 and Jupiter is at 22 Capricorn 21 and moving Retrograde, towards 21 degrees.

So at the First Quarter Moon, the Sun squares the Moon AND the Moon is at the focal point of a yod, quincunx Jupiter and Uranus, which are approaching a sextile (exact on May 21).

How much is too much? During a Taurus-Leo Quarter Moon, nothing is too much. Lovely things can make you feel proud and adored. Yet, in the current economic climate, your practical side may be at odds with your love of luxury, which can feel the need to be indulged a bit, at least today, on Mother’s Day! Yet, breaking your budget on bling is a choice that can effect your bank account and your self-esteem.

While you may be busy and social, there can be a part of you that feels sensitive and judged unfairly. And since you may not be willing to share how you feel readily, it can also be harder for you to know how you feel as you keep your feelings strictly private.

And since this Moon is in Leo, a fixed sign, you may be too proud to share and explore your feelings, which can take the fire out of relating and make you feel smothered instead of mothered (or you can smother instead of mother).

Today can bring up what makes it hard for you to show and share your love, whatever makes it hard for you to feel close to others. And while this can seem harsh on Mother’s Day, it can also serve to unblock whatever is preventing you from feeling nurtured by social interactions, and sometimes by the ones you love.

Past limitations can be seen through as what you needed in another time of your life to feel safe and secure, and from that perspective, you can let them go. A barrier that you may have previously assumed would last lifetimes, can change in a heartbeat or less. A stronger YOU can do wonders to help others who could use your guidance and care.

At the bass of today’s Yod to the Moon is the approaching Jupiter-Uranus sextile (this is the 2nd pass, the first was on March 28, this one is May 21, the last is November 13). This is a time of growing conscious awareness that is taking place on a global level, and will get a big boost of energy in November. Our associations with large groups can help the cause. As you lend your talents to help the group, you also receive opportunities and blessings in the form of lucky breaks, great press, and expanded intuition.

So send out that press release! Mercury may be stationing Rx and Jupiter is already Rx, yet Jupiter and Uranus are sextile and it’s a good time to add your insights into the mix.

More on Jupiter-Uranus as the insight flashes;;;;

Mars enters Leo on Friday, May 9, 2008.

Mars, the red planet, traditionally represents energy. It’s what drives you, what takes your from an idea to an action. It’s how you feel alive and vital, animated and strong. It can help you to be assertive. Or, if Mars is imbalanced, it can help to make you passive/aggressive. In the body, it’s your muscles and adrenals.

As Mars enters Leo, the Flower Essence Report says:

“You have a robust, hearty constitution, high vitality, and strong creative forces. With your combination of firm will, positive enthusiasm, and holding steady, you are capable of achieving anything you desire. You are able to withstand a quite a bit of external pressure. You also have the urge to lead or direct things, and may flare up when things do not go your way. You tend to bowl over other people. Consider taking the flower essence TRILLIUM, to offset excessive selfish ambition, or LARKSPUR for charismatic leadership combined with joyful service (rather than for self-aggrandizement).”

To see how Mars in Leo is going to act, we look at Mars in the current horoscope (astrology chart). Mars is conjunct the Moon and quincunx (inconjunct) Pluto. These aspects give this ingress of Mars into Leo an intense emotional quality. You can see what you’re willing to DO when something is crucial, when you absolutely need something to happen. You can see this drive or force strongly now, and it can be a lesson to yourself on how much you are capable of, the next time you don’t feel like doing something.

If anger seems to be boiling up and threatening to explode, this is a signal that you need to release some of your need to control absolutely. You cannot control what others will do or think, but you can envision the results and changes you would like to see. Instead of using your energy to clamp down and tense up about a situation, take a few DEEP breaths and get yourself into a more relaxed state of mind so you can think more clearly. When all your energy is tensing, the energy does not go to your brain, it goes to your muscles so you can run. Once you start redirecting your energy, you can start thinking and getting better, more appropriate ideas.

As Mars enters Leo while conjunct the Moon and quincunx Pluto, allowing your emotions to control situations can backfire. But it’s not to embarrass you or point out your weak spots, it’s to help you to shift your emotions so they are less stressful.

Here’s what the Flower Essence Report suggests:

“Blockages or damage in the root, sacral, and solar plexus chakras (due to painful early experiences in which you were harshly dominated or abused by a more powerful individual) may need to be healed.”

And these blockages can be revealed through any strong emotional reactions.

And the Flower remedies they suggest are informative in themselves:

“these flower and gem essences can accelerate and support your healing process: FUSCHIA and SCARLET MONKEY FLOWER (which surface and help release suppressed anger), HOLLY (for releasing toxic emotions such as spite, envy, the desire for revenge, jealous suspicions), FIREWEED (for releasing and healing old angers), TIGER LILY (balances overly aggressive, competitive, excessively “yang” energy).”

And to calm and balance your emotions, they suggest spraying lavendar, patchouli, or violet, lovely in the spring. Plant some impatiens if you’re feeling impatient.

Achieving a state of relaxation is especially important as Mars enters Leo. There is potent energy, and it can be accessed if you’re in a calm and balanced state of body and mind.
