Sagittarius Full Moon 2026

Monday Night into Tuesday — Mars Square Pluto: Power, Frustration, and Clarity Late Monday into the early hours of Tuesday, we have a Mars square Pluto configuration. Mars is desire, drive, assertion—sometimes anger. Pluto is transformation, power, and deep undercurrents. Together in a square, these energies can feel like opposing forces: I want this. You want that. Power struggles, frustration, or buried motivations may surface. What’s important is awareness. If you have strong Mars or Pluto placements in your chart, you may feel especially reactive. Before pushing harder, ask: * What am I defending? * What outcome am I attached to? * Am I seeking resolution—or control? Undermining, manipulating, or forcing outcomes tends to fracture trust. The opportunity here is different: introducing new perspectives, staying curious, and remembering that compromise doesn’t necessarily mean defeat. Some situations won’t resolve immediately. That’s okay. Wednesday, May 27 — The Long Void Moon: Organize, Reflect, Prepare The moon goes void of course at 7:32 a.m. ET and doesn’t enter Scorpio until 8:53 p.m. Much of the day carries that in-between quality. Rather than beginning something new, this is a strong day for: * Organizing * Storyboarding ideas * Reviewing options * Creating outlines or plans * Appreciation of beauty * Finishing what’s already underway If you’re in conversation around decisions or next steps, write things down. Make the possibilities visible. Sometimes clarity comes simply from seeing everything in one place. Wednesday Night Through Friday — Scorpio Moon: Depth, Focus, and Honest Conversation Once the moon enters Scorpio, the energy shifts. This is where concentration deepens. Scorpio favors research, therapy, emotional honesty, financial discussions, healing work, and focused effort. Thursday and Friday feel especially potent for meaningful conversations: Who’s invested? What matters? What’s the truth beneath the surface? This can be powerful energy for: * Therapeutic work * Emotional healing * Financial planning * Intimate conversations * Concentrated creative projects * Psychological insight * Health and wellbeing work The richness comes through depth. Not speed. Thursday morning may feel emotionally raw or slightly reactive for some. Move gently. Be attentive to irritation or defensiveness. By midday, the energy steadies considerably. There’s potential for meaningful connection—whether with another person, creative work, or yourself. Thursday Night — Venus and Saturn: Gentleness Matters Late Thursday carries a somewhat heavy Venus-Saturn tone. If you’re hard on yourself or inclined toward perfectionism, soften your evening. Simple gratitude practices help: A good cup of tea. Light through trees. A kind exchange. Something beautiful that happened quietly. Small appreciations matter. Especially before sleep. Friday, May 29 — Productive Focus and Unexpected Possibilities The moon remains in Scorpio most of the day and goes void at 8:05 p.m. This can be highly productive energy—particularly if you stay open to possibilities beyond what you originally imagined. Flexibility often creates more flow than rigid expectation. Evening favors restoration. Saturday, May 30 — Sagittarius Moon: Movement, Inspiration, Expansion At 8:45 a.m. ET, the moon enters Sagittarius. The feeling changes noticeably. Scorpio concentrates. Sagittarius expands. This is fire energy: curious, exploratory, inspired. Saturday may bring interruptions, detours, or surprising ideas. Some become distractions. Others become inspiration. Discernment matters. The day favors: * Nature * Travel * New foods * Learning * Philosophy * World music * Cultural experiences * Big conversations Anything that broadens perspective. Sunday, May 31 — Full Moon in Sagittarius: Play, Explore, Connect The full moon becomes exact at 4:45 a.m. ET. The moon then goes void at 9:21 a.m., remaining void through much of the day. This feels less like a day for pushing and more like a day for wandering, exploring, and following curiosity. If possible: Go outside. Visit a museum. Read something unfamiliar. Watch a foreign film. Travel physically—or through ideas. The larger invitation of this full moon asks: How do we communicate what truly matters to us? How do we remain curious, connected, and open to a bigger world? That might happen through conversation, creativity, solitude, study, prayer, dancing, or simply noticing the richness of being alive. The full moon doesn’t always demand answers. Sometimes it asks for participation. For more details… Listen to the full weekly podcast!

Astrology Week of May 18, 2026

I hope everyone had a lovely new moon weekend — that Taurus energy offers delicious possibilities to restart, refresh, and move forward as spring blossoms toward summer. Monday, May 18th, 2026: the moon is void-of-course all day in Gemini. We’re coming off new moon momentum, eager to begin, connect, and make things happen. Gemini invites conversation, curiosity, new ideas, and tangents. But under a void moon, not everything introduced now will unfold as expected. Conventional astrology wisdom with the void-of-course… don’t put all your eggs in one basket. Focus on what’s already in motion. Finish, prepare, organize. The follow-through on new beginnings may be uncertain. At 9:46 p.m. Eastern, the moon enters Cancer, and the energy softens into nourishment — fertile ground for continuing intentions planted under the Taurus new moon. Tuesday has staying power. Dream work Monday night into Tuesday morning may be especially helpful. Even if dreams aren’t remembered, rest continues solving problems. Sleep supports creativity, clarity, and resilience. One challenge Tuesday may involve support systems: the right partners, timing, or expectations. Realizing you need help is not weakness. Sometimes wisdom looks like delegation, collaboration, or simply admitting you can’t carry everything alone. By late Tuesday afternoon, creative energy opens. If something won’t come together, step away. Walk. Cook. Shower. Tend the garden. Inspiration often arrives after effort loosens its grip. Wednesday carries a long void-of-course moon in Cancer — less barren than other void moons, more womb-like. Nourishment matters. Self-care matters. Unexpected conversations or encounters may offer exactly what you need. The sun enters Gemini Wednesday evening. Earlier in the day, subtle messages may appear: intuition, symbols, nature, a sudden sense that something is arriving before you can fully see it. Thursday is dynamic and well-supported for connection, momentum, and collaboration. Early frustrations may surface, but they pass. Observe first. React later. By Thursday evening, play becomes medicine. Watch a film. Dance. Rest. Reconnect with joy. Friday continues Leo energy: creativity, romance, risk, delight. Not reckless risk — the kind that opens curiosity. Try something new. Make art. Rearrange a room. Let the inner child have a voice. Saturday’s Virgo moon returns focus. Organize, tend details, cook, garden, heal, serve. Productivity comes more easily. And through the weekend, remember: self-nurturing replenishes the well. Without restoration, we eventually run dry. Sunday evening’s void-of-course moon in Virgo favors quiet. Early sleep. Baths. Reflection. Gentle restoration. Take care of yourselves this week. There is movement, yes — but also becoming.

Taurus New Moon 2026

Monday, May 11 I’m here to talk about the week of May 11th, 2026, from an astrological perspective. Those of you who listened last week may remember that I talked about bumps in the road — places where things weren’t flowing the way we wanted them to. This week feels more workable. We have more ability to follow through, wrap things up, and move with the waning moon energy. The waning moon is best for completing things, organizing, deciding what we are no longer working on as we move toward the next lunar cycle, and carrying existing projects into the next stage. Long-term projects may absolutely continue, but we’re generally better served if we’re not trying to force a major launch right now. Of course, life happens. Things begin during waning moons all the time. What matters is learning how to work with the energy rather than fighting upstream like a salmon. Monday into Tuesday may feel like the more challenging part of the week, though not necessarily in a dramatic way. The Moon in Pisces forms a square to Venus, and for people who already carry challenging Moon-Venus aspects in their natal chart, this can stir up feelings of lack, compromise, or emotional short-changing. It can feel like:“Oh, this again.”“I have to sacrifice in order to make this happen.”“Someone else’s needs are getting prioritized over mine.” What’s important is not immediately believing the feeling. Try to observe it. Try to find ways to honor both needs, both desires. This energy actually favors listening. If you’re working with a group, a project, or even family dynamics, let everyone be heard. Inclusion matters right now. The more space there is for different perspectives, the easier it becomes for things to move as the week unfolds. This can also be internal. I don’t know about you, but I have conversations in my head constantly. One part wants this, another part wants that, and then there’s always some bossy little voice in the background insisting it knows best. The question becomes: how do you sort through all the voices and determine the actual priority? This can be a very creative and constructive day if you stay engaged. Some of us may want to be near water or nature. Others may need music, beauty, conversation, or something playful to keep energy flowing while working. What we want to avoid is getting lost in indecision or emotional fog. That said, breaks are important. A walk, meditation, stepping outside, or simply unplugging for a little while can be deeply restorative. This also feels like a good evening for sleep and replenishment. Tuesday, May 12 Tuesday opens with the Moon still in Pisces. It goes void-of-course at 6:04 a.m. Eastern Time and remains void for most of the day until entering Aries at 8:04 p.m. A Pisces void Moon is floating energy. I think of it as crossing a lake. You’re still moving, but you’re not forcing. You’re restoring, observing, conserving energy, and allowing yourself to drift enough to regain perspective. This is a terrific day for asking:Where am I in this process?Is this flowing naturally?Am I pushing unnecessarily? If something feels stalled or uncertain, don’t force clarity. Support the process without becoming rigid about how things must happen. More information is still arriving. Then, late evening, the energy shifts dramatically as the Moon enters Aries. We move from mutable water into cardinal fire:from floating to movement,from dreaming to doing. Suddenly there may be energy, restlessness, inspiration, or even overstimulation. Some people may feel wide awake late into the night. Move the energy physically if needed. Take a walk after dinner. Dance around the house. Stretch. Do something familiar that helps your body process the surge rather than getting stuck in it. The goal is to move toward rest rather than burnout. Wednesday, May 13 Wednesday is a high-action day. Even though we’re still in a waning moon cycle, there’s strong support for momentum, initiative, creativity, and leadership. With the Moon in Aries and Saturn also in Aries, the question becomes:Who is actually showing up? If people who promised support don’t appear, clarity comes quickly. You may realize where you’ve been overextending energy or relying on people who simply aren’t available in the ways you need. That realization doesn’t have to become bitterness. It can simply become information. Okay. That’s not reliable. Moving on. And if people do show up? Great. Then you know who your team is. This is a powerful day for moving forward with the people, systems, and opportunities that are actually responsive. Thursday, May 14 Thursday continues the Aries energy and asks for focus. Know your priorities early in the day. Put your energy into what is moving rather than obsessing over what refuses to move. This is important under Aries energy:work with what is alive.Work with what responds. Mars in Aries supports initiative and courage. The message is simple:Do what you can with what you have. The Moon goes void-of-course at 5:33 p.m. Eastern Time, so ideally the bigger push happens earlier in the day. Evening feels better for wrapping up, cleaning up, and winding down. At 10:33 p.m., the Moon enters Taurus, leading us toward Saturday’s Taurus New Moon. Friday, May 15 Friday carries lovely Taurus energy. If possible, spend time with good food, beauty, music, meaningful conversation, nature, scent, color, comfort — all the things that remind us that being alive in a body is actually a gift. The Moon in Taurus heightens the senses. It reminds us to savor experience rather than rush through it. There may be a little tension early in the morning around control, desire, or competing priorities, but once that passes, the day opens beautifully. This is restorative energy. Saturday, May 16 — Taurus New Moon The Taurus New Moon occurs at 4:01 p.m. Eastern Time. This is a powerful New Moon for thinking about what you want to build, stabilize, create, or manifest in tangible form. Taurus is fixed earth. It wants something real. A dream becoming a structure.An idea becoming a product.A desire becoming a commitment. This is fertile energy for planting seeds that need roots. Sometimes after a New Moon there’s a slight drifting period, almost like the seed settling into the soil before growth begins. But this transition happens fairly quickly because later that evening the Moon enters Gemini. And then the ideas begin moving. Conversations spark. Thoughts accelerate. Curiosity wakes up. Sunday, May 17 Sunday feels buzzy, electric, curious, and mentally active. The Gemini Moon brings ideas, conversations, possibilities, and movement. Not everything is fully formed yet, but inspiration is very alive. The important thing is discernment. There’s a lot of stimulation right now, so it’s important to ask:What actually has continuity?What deserves sustained attention? The Moon goes void-of-course at 3:36 p.m. and remains void until Monday. So overall, this week is best used by focusing on completion before the New Moon arrives. Ask yourself: What am I finishing?What am I preparing for?What am I ready to grow next? The dark-of-the-moon period late Thursday into Friday feels especially fertile psychologically and spiritually. It allows us to settle inward before the next cycle begins. By the time the Taurus New Moon arrives, we’re much more prepared to move toward what we truly want to build and bring into form.

Pluto Retrograde

Monday, May 4 — Sagittarius Fire, Aim Matters As you heard last week, we are now in the waning Moon cycle, following Friday’s full Moon (in the podcast please adjust timing from Eastern Time Zone, if needed). We open this week with the Moon in Sagittarius, and Monday is a strong day for finishing things—working with what already has momentum, connecting with people in ways that pull things together. There’s a lot of energy here. Sagittarius is mutable and adaptable, and as the Moon moves, it trines Mars—the planet of action and desire. Even though the Moon goes void of course at 5:33 p.m. Eastern, there’s still a window where that Sagittarian energy is active. The key: know what you’re aiming for. Sagittarius can get excited, pulled into ideas and conversations, and lose focus. It’s active—but not always targeted. This is the sign of the archer. Place your arrow with intention, especially into the evening. This energy carries through to about mid-morning Tuesday. Tuesday, May 5 — Shift into Capricorn, Reality Check The Moon enters Capricorn at 3:06 p.m. From mid-morning until then, the energy shifts from “push” to “assess.” What worked? What didn’t? Gather your thoughts, organize, clean up what’s in the way. Once in Capricorn, it’s time to roll up your sleeves. Tuesday afternoon through the next couple of days is about evaluating where you are—and having the harder conversations. Power dynamics, impasses, and repeating patterns may surface. Watch for the “ping-pong” conversations—the ones where you already know the script. What matters is catching yourself in the moment. When the ball comes your way and your response is automatic, pause. Change it. Offer something different. It disrupts the pattern. It’s like wrestling—choreographed, predictable. The players know the outcome. But when you shift your move, the other person doesn’t know what comes next. So ask:What can I say differently?How can I shift this? It may not land smoothly—but it creates space. Capricorn brings emotional realism. It can feel cold, but it sees clearly. And that matters. There’s a difference between imagining something new and actually seeing what’s in front of you. Between magical thinking and reinvention. Wednesday, May 6 — Pluto Retrograde Pluto goes retrograde at 11:34 a.m. This shift may not be felt immediatly, but over the coming weeks and months, we’ll begin to see its effects—especially with Pluto in Aquarius. Collectively, this points to reconsideration around technology, systems, and power structures. Personally, if Pluto is active in your chart—especially early degrees of Aquarius, Leo, Taurus, or Scorpio—you may feel this shift more directly. It can feel like relief or like something heavy returning. Globally, expect intensification around power, resources, and control. We’re already seeing this reflected in world events. On a practical level, Wednesday is productive—good for doing the work—as long as everyone is aligned. Thursday, May 7 — Raw Morning, Void Moon Reset Thursday morning is raw. People may be cranky, reactive, or argumentative—especially from early morning through late morning. If anything was left unresolved, this is when it shows up. The Moon goes void of course at 10:18 a.m. for the rest of the day. Best approach: handle things ahead of time (Wednesday). Check in. Make sure everyone is on the same page. Capricorn energy can get very task-focused, but if people don’t feel heard or supported, frustrations surface. After the void Moon, the afternoon and evening can be quite productive—especially for follow-through. Friday, May 8 — Aquarius Flow, Collective Momentum The Moon enters Aquarius at 3:27 a.m., and now things begin to flow. There’s a nice hum here. After a week of managing dynamics, Friday feels lighter. If you’re in sync, you’re in it—focused, engaged, in your element. This is great for collaboration, community, shared goals. Whether in person or across distances, there’s a sense of collective movement. Even in a waning Moon cycle, there’s initiation energy. Something that stalled may come back online—new information, new resources, or a key person entering the mix. Sometimes the power source is simply the right person at the right time. Sunday, May 10 — Void Moon Morning, Pisces Softening The Moon goes void of course at 1:09 a.m. (Mother’s Day in the U.S.) and doesn’t enter Pisces until 1:39 p.m. The morning is for slowing down. Unplug. Journal. Rest. Aquarius energy is electric and mental—this is your chance to step away and let things settle. Bake, garden, walk—connect in a more organic way. Once the Moon enters Pisces, the energy softens. More intuitive, more fluid. With Uranus now in Gemini, there may be an unexpected shift—something out of the blue. Not negative, just a redirection. Likely mid-afternoon. By evening, there’s a sweetness. A sense of expansion, possibility, something opening. Lean into that. Because later, things may narrow or refine—but if you’ve allowed yourself to fully expand into possibility, what remains will be something you can truly build. Not just realistic. Realizable.

Waxing Toward the Scorpio Full Moon

The Week of April 27th, 2026 For those of us moving with the momentum of the New Moon in Aries from a week and a half ago, this week represents the sweep toward a powerful Full Moon culmination. This doesn’t mean you should stop evolving or creating; rather, there is a beautiful arc to this week that helps us understand exactly how to time our efforts. Monday, April 27th: The Power of the “Clean Up” The Moon spends the day in Virgo, but it goes void-of-course at 7:12 AM ET. In my lingo, a void-of-course moon means the planets aren’t “talking together.” During these periods, people often feel less emotionally attached to outcomes. Depending on where Virgo sits in your personal horoscope—across the twelve houses representing different areas of life—this timing may affect you more or less than others. Regardless, the best way to work with a void-of-course Virgo Moon is to clean up. * Do: Organize, build structure, and prioritize. * Don’t: Launch or begin something brand new. You might feel stimulated or excited, but the “connectivity” isn’t quite there yet to pull a new project in the direction you want. If you try to connect with a new fundraiser or collaborator now, it may not propel you quickly to your results. Instead, use this time for therapeutic work, bodywork, or rolling up your sleeves with a regular advisor. It’s an overall productive day, provided you don’t push for something that isn’t ready to come together. Tuesday, April 28th – Wednesday, April 29th: Peeling the Onion The Moon enters Libra at 5:03 AM ET on Tuesday. This is an excellent window for difficult conversations. Libra energy helps us see where our differences lie. You might find that while you thought everyone was on the same page, a partner does a “180,” revealing you aren’t as in sync as you assumed. Tuesday is particularly good for deep problem-solving and research—it’s “peeling the onion” energy. It feels like a courtroom drama where a single sentence or intentional pivot suddenly changes how everyone views the case. Remember, we are in a waxing moon cycle. More light is coming in, but that light can sometimes feel like darkness because it reveals truths we weren’t hoping to see. However, having the information necessary to make a better decision always brings more space and light into your life. A Note on Inner Work and “Helpers” In these moments, it is easy to cast others as villains. While it is a reality that humans do villainous things, dwelling in hate and vitriol only magnifies toxicity. Instead of wanting the worst for others, focus your energy on a “bolt of lightning” for the soul—a moment of revelation that releases toxicity and avarice. As Mr. Rogers used to say, “Look for the helpers.” Align yourself with those working for positive change and use Tuesday and Wednesday to wrestle with your inner dragons and magnify love instead. Thursday, April 30th: Stepping into the Deep The Moon goes void-of-course in Libra all Thursday morning. This is a perfect time to “chill” and suspend your heavy thought processes. For me, nature is the ultimate salve. When we step beyond the hubris of thinking we control the Earth, we see her incredible ability to regenerate and heal. At 3:02 PM ET, the Moon enters Scorpio, bringing us into the dynamic energy of the upcoming Full Moon. This is deep, transformative territory. You may experience epiphanies regarding obsessions, addictions, or places where you feel “stuck.” The first step is often admitting our powerlessness to simply “snap our fingers” and move on, and instead understanding what the attachment really is. Friday, May 1st: The Scorpio Full Moon (Beltane) The Full Moon at 11 degrees Scorpio occurs exactly at 1:23 PM ET. From early afternoon onward, we enter a “rock-solid” window for making right decisions. With crystal clarity, you may experience a “lightbulb moment” in the middle of a conversation, realizing why you’re even having it—or why you haven’t been. Scorpio energy can be vengeful or dismantling, but that is often the framework of transformation. It is hard to create a new orientation in a job or relationship if you are still clinging to the way things have always been. This Full Moon helps you slough off the old skin. Saturday, May 2nd – Sunday, May 3rd: Deep Dives and High Energy Saturday is an entirely void-of-course day in Scorpio. It is a terrific day for research, clearing out old files, recycling, or even digging in the garden to plant root vegetables. By Sunday at 2:33 AM ET, the Moon enters Sagittarius. This is a “booking” day—a fire mutable moon that wants to move, go, and make things happen. It is an explorative, high-energy day. Whether you are hiking in nature or connecting with people from different backgrounds, keep your mind open and enjoy the journey. For more details… Listen to the full weekly podcast!
