New Moon in Taurus, 6 May: your 12th house

The New Moon is exact at 10:59 UTC on Thursday 6 May, at 15°42′ Taurus. Counted by whole signs from Gemini, Taurus is your 12th house, the house of rest, solitude and the hidden life.

At a New Moon the Sun and the Moon stand together, and the old almanacs marked the turn of the month for planting; this May the planting is in your 12th house, the Bad Spirit, where the tradition looks for a quiet beginning in the inner life: a practice of prayer, rest or retreat. In your 12th house this May, Taurus makes the mood patient and sensual, settling rather than starting.

A practice for the May New Moon: pray, meditate or sit in silence at the same time each day for a week.

Full Moon in Scorpio, 20 May: your 6th house

Thursday 20 May brings the Full Moon at 29°13′ Scorpio, exact at 10:59 UTC, opposite the Sun in Taurus, and for Gemini it lands in the 6th house, the house of daily work, habits and health routines.

Astrology reads a Full Moon as an axis rather than a point, and the May axis runs through your 6th house, Bad Fortune, showing what the body has been saying through tiredness, and what it needs you to change. Set in your 6th house, the May lunation takes its tone from its sign: Scorpio, fixed water ruled by Mars in the old books, gives it an intense and private manner. Read as an axis, from your 6th house to your 12th, this May Full Moon runs along the axis of work and rest: the duties of the day and the retreat that restores you.

A practice for the May Full Moon: give your sleep the same respect you give your deadlines.

Planets changing sign or direction in May

Pluto turns retrograde in Aquarius, your 9th house, a slow turn spread over several days. The turn comes around 8 May, at 7°10′ Aquarius, and since a slow planet’s turn is felt over weeks rather than on a day, the tradition would look for it in Gemini’s higher learning, and teachers and teaching through May.

On 9 May Mercury moves into Gemini, which is your 1st house. Until 28 May, Mercury in your 1st house quickens the mind and the tongue: a good stretch for speaking up for yourself and for plans that are yours alone.

Mars enters Virgo on 14 May, your 4th house. Until 15 July, Mars in your 4th house brings energy home: repairs, renovations, moves, and sometimes tempers in the household.

Venus crosses into Taurus on 14 May and so into your 12th house. Until 8 June, with Venus in the house of hidden things, the tradition reads a spell for tenderness out of public view and for healing old hurts.

The Sun enters Gemini, your 1st house, on 21 May at 06:18 UTC. Until 21 June, with the Sun in your own sign the year turns over for you personally, which makes it a natural time to take stock and begin again.

Mercury enters Cancer on 28 May, your 2nd house. Until 26 June, Mercury in your 2nd house turns the mind toward money: budgets, prices, invoices and the arithmetic of what you value.

Venus begins May in Aries, your 11th house, and enters Taurus, your 12th, on 14 May, turning affection toward secret feelings, private sacrifices and the hidden life of a relationship.

Mars, the planet of effort, moves from Leo, your 3rd, into Virgo (your 4th) on 14 May, so the drive of the month shifts toward working from home, and the foundations a career quietly stands on. The Full Moon on 20 May lands in your 6th, a house the tradition gives to work and health.

For money, Mercury arrives in your 2nd on 28 May: the house of what you earn and own. The tradition would make May a time to review income, savings, spending and possessions, most directly of all the houses in Cancer’s house, and leave the outcome to your own choices.
