Foundational Transitions with Saturn in Aries: Weekly Astrology for May 19 - 25

The astrology this week has a gravity to it. Saturn moves into Aries to mark a new chapter of life around our experience of time, limits, and responsibilities, as well as our experience of devotion, determination, and confidence. Saturn reminds us to focus on what’s important because our time and energy are some of our most precious and limited resources. In addition, there are many aspects this week that invoke a movement toward being open to new ways of thinking. This astrology this week includes:Saturn moves into Aries on Sat 5/24: This marks the ending and beginning of a new 3 year phase. Saturn relates to your devotion, diligence, and responsibilities. With Saturn leaving Pisces and entering Aries, we have opportunities to close out one phase and begin fresh with another. This means taking the gifts and wisdom you’ve gained over the last 3 years, and letting go of what once served you but no longer does.Last Qtr Moon in Aquarius on Tues 5/20 at 4:59am: Releasing stuck-ness, moving thru resistance, finding your path forward.Sun in Taurus sextile Saturn in Pisces: Finding support thru effort and willful determination.Mercury conjunct Uranus in Taurus: Awakening of new ideas, concepts, or information that may feel revelatory. Synchronistic changes in your perspective. There may be new information that comes to you (especially via dreams, daydreams, or other symbolic ways) that opens new pathways. Be open to explore.Mercury in Taurus opposite Juno + square Pallas: You may feel a tension between being true to your own ideas and values vs. what you “should” do, especially in being responsible to other people and what they expect of you in a particular role. This tension may be softened by first considering what you need in order to show up for this role or in order to be present for others.Sun moves into Gemini on Tues 5/20: Happy Birthday to my Gemini people! This marks our consciousness shifting to a more fluid and multifaceted way of experiencing the world (Gemini). This also may mean an increase in things like sharing ideas with others, more movement, and openness to frequent change.Sun in Gemini sextile Neptune + trine Pluto: Unconscious material (Neptune + Pluto) may move into consciousness (the Sun). These are soft aspects so you may simply notice subtle intuitions calling for your attention. These can be ignored, but if you notice them and pay attention, you may be called toward something that speaks to you deeply.Mercury moves into Gemini on Sunday 5/25: Thought process and communications become more fluid and open. You may be more open to transitions and new ideas. Mercury in Gemini also makes a sextile to Saturn which adds a layer of keeping a practical mindset.Venus in Aries trine Mars in Leo: Passionate, creative, and loving energy. This aspect inspires a sense of craving connection, being drawn toward others, and maybe also a playful sense of competition. You may feel inspired to take action spontaneously.Ceres conjunct Neptune in Aries: Ceres is a symbol of how we deal with separations and reunions. This aspect shows a time where there’s a potential for healing around our experience of a separation, grief, or loss – especially in dynamics that involve the maternal line or maternal type figures.Reflection Questions:1.
