The Sagittarius moon
On May 8, the moon moves into the encouraging sign of Sagittarius, bringing forth optimism and faith.
Astrologer Cat Ivins also agrees that the moon in Sagittarius brings “Practical and optimistic energy. The need to not take anything too far, but at the same time the need to take it somewhere!” She adds that “the confident Sag Moon will trine hurting/healing Chiron – we step up/we stand up – we feel better.”
Jupiter conjunct Pluto and Saturn
Jupiter is conjunct with Pluto at 2°13’and also conjunct with Saturn at 4°46’on May 8.
Astrologer Lynn Hayes of Astrodynamics says, “Jupiter is… connected to our search for meaning, and the philosophies and theologies that we create to make sense of the world.” She adds that “Pluto represents the power of creative destruction to transform and empower… and therefore can denote obsession, especially in the areas of power and control.”
In terms of Saturn, Hayes notes that since mid-January we have been “under a conjunction of Saturn (hardship) to Pluto (destruction)” in the difficulties the entire world is experiencing right now is evidence of “a very Saturn/Pluto manifestation.”
