Weekly Forecast for May 26 - June 1, 2025

Note:  the dates in this forecast are for Pacific to Eastern time.  

Unless I provide a specific timeframe, we’ll feel the energies 24-72 hours in advance of the date I mention (the date when the planetary alignment is exact).  They will be gaining in strength as they approach the date.  We will also feel them for 24-48 hours after, but they will be losing strength with each passing hour.

This week brings the New Moon in Gemini, a powerful Mercury-Pluto trine, and lots of great energy to connect with family and friends! 

But, keep in mind that a Gemini Moon is restless, so it can be difficult to get a good night's sleep.  Shut down your electronic devices at least an hour before bed on Monday and Tuesday.  Take a relaxing bath with lavender bath salts, or do some gentle yoga. 

If You're Working with the Lunar Cycle for Manifestation... 

Once you've set your intentions on the New Moon, don't forget to do your part and take an action step or two toward your goal.  And it just so happens that this week brings an Opportunity Period! See below. 

If your time zone allows, experiment with astrological timing and take action toward your goal during the Opportunity Period.

Here are the main astro-happenings of this week:

✨  May 26, 8:02 p.m. PDT:  New Moon at 6° Gemini.

This powerful New Moon is brimming with uplifting vibes. Set intentions for improved communication, an improved relationship with your sibling(s) or neighbours, success with writing or studies, and reduced stress when driving.

✨  May 27:  Mercury trine Pluto aaaand....an Opportunity Period: from May 27, 8:21 p.m. to May 28, 6:01 a.m. PDT

An excellent day for clear and powerful communication. Schedule that important meeting at work, and hopefully impress your boss! It's also a great day for cognitive therapy.  Deep breakthroughs are possible.  

For the metaphysically inclined, charge a turquoise.  Working with turquoise can help you find your inner voice and express your truth.  It's also great if you tend to get tongue-tied in important meetings at work!

Now on to the Opportunity Period.  Opportunity Periods are times when the Moon makes helpful aspects only before she leaves the sign she is in.  And this one ends with a lovely Moon-Jupiter conjunction.

Opportunity periods tend to aid your undertakings.  Use this one for anything related to reasoning, creativity, and clear communication.

✨  May 29:  the Sun conjunct Mercury; waxing Moon in Cancer. 

A lovely day to connect with your family members and have a good gab session.

✨   May 30 p.m. to June 1: a well-positioned waxing Moon in Leo 

Friday night and Saturday are two great days for socializing with friends or throwing a party. 

✨   June 1:  Venus conjunct Chiron

This is a very healing energy, especially if you have insecurities around romantic matters or your body image (and most of us do!) 

Over the years, I've worked with many clients wanting to lose weight, get a better job - you name it - because they felt it would make them more attractive as a romantic partner.  Yes, there is a societal pressure to project a certain image, that's for sure.

But...can I make a suggestion?  Ask the Universe to send you a man or a woman who loves you and adores you just as you come!  Weight piles back on.  Companies downsize. But the person who sees the beautiful essence of YOU won't notice those extra 5 lbs. 


Moon Void of Course:

Recommended Reading for This Week:

Considering we're in Gemini Season, the Complete Book of Predictive Astrology is just perfect.  It covers a LOT of territory, from progressions and solar arcs to transits, New Moons Full Moons and Eclipses, Solar and Lunar Returns, and mundane astrology (=those world events!)  

It's an excellent sampler of assorted predictive techniques that provides enough detail to help you work with each technique by just using this book - or to decide which one you want to learn in-depth. 

I have this book, and I absolutely love it.
